    Another Carrier nerf, Flight Deck Officers are broken (Recharge time is down from 4 seconds to 1.6 seconds)

    Flight Deck Officers that recharge Hangar Bays are giving a much smaller bonus then they should. A Very Rare Doff should reduce a hangar by 4 seconds. With 3 VR Doffs fitted that's 12 seconds reduction. Now with 1 bay the time goes from 15 seconds down to 10 seconds which is 1.6 seconds reduction per doff well off the 4 seconds per doff we used to get.

    This is having a knock-on effect making Frigate carrier builds really hard to use as we cannot get the bay recharge time down to a reasonable amount even with max aux. Its also cutting down Pet healing and cutting down Pet DPS via nerfing Scrambled Fighters traits which now no longer stacks up as the bay recharge is so low to trigger as much we used to. It also means our pets now die more often so we lose more DPS as they need time to re rank up to level 5.

    This combined with the recent Fix/nerf of the SAD carrier trait has put Carriers into a really weak position. All the main pure carrier builds are now underperforming with no variable alternatives to hold our own against other mainstream builds. All the top carrier builds have dropped a large amount in pet DPS. Beams pets, Cannons pets, Beam overload pet builds, Lost Souls, FaW pet builds.

    Lastly with the Endeavor expansion boosting all other builds and having nothing for pure carrier builds we are falling behind even further. I don't mind the fixing of the SAD trait, but fixing the SAD trait and this doff bug combined with all the other problems including the ones like Elite pets doing worse then rare pets has pushed carriers into a really bad place.

    I have put in a bug report here Star Trek Online | Arc Games Could I ask others to test and post in that thread. I find the more players that report the same bug the more widespread it is so the faster it gets fixed.

    11 years in and no iconic warrigul pet? Crypric pls, take my lobi

    Picard lockbox is the least interesting lootbox ever introduced to STO.

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 02:08 AM PST

    Normally I enjoy opening boxes- even if I rarely ever get a t6 ship- but one look at the actual content of the box tells me its better to BUY the prizes off the exchange unless I really am looking for VIP mining claims and other such things. The Lobi drop rate is terrible on top of that.

    Better off opening up the Infinity boxes and not bothering with this latest lootbox.

    The kits, only one seems really all that interesting to me- not sure if I like the weapons, the vanity shield looks nice, and some of the traits look good too- but the best way to get this stuff is straight off the exchange.

    Normally I don't say this sort of thing, but damn the chance of getting something decent out of that box is NOT worth a key. The Infinity boxes at least drop a wider selection of items, including many choice boxes that allow you to PICK your prize.

    In short- bugger the Picard boxes, I will stick to Infinity boxes thanks. :/

    TRIBBLE: I have Janeway-class boxes available for testing!

    Posted: 06 Mar 2021 11:08 PM PST

    Hey everyone,

    Having seen generous folks giving away new ships on Tribble, and since I went ahead and tracked one down myself, thought I should pay it forward and do it myself.

    I have 60 Janeway-class ships available on Tribble, just reply with your @ handle and I will do my best to get you one to try out!

    EDIT: Make sure you already have a character on the Tribble server, or it won't send.

    I remember the Alliance Headquarters on Khitomer being a lot more reddish- is this intentional?

    My Friend Finally Decided to Play, and Bought 10k Zen. He Asked Me What to Buy, But I Dont Know What to Say.

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 07:48 AM PST

    As the title says, my friend decided to play the game after I told him about it. He then got 10k zen, and is wondering what to get with it, whether it be starter packs or other things. What should I tell him to get?

    PS5 Issue: Can't connect to account server

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 08:30 AM PST

    Thought I'd try this game out again. Used to play on PS4. I can't even get to the main menu because the game can't connect to the account server. I see older posts reporting the same issue but no solutions anywhere. I've searched here and googled the problem. Any idea what to do?

    Possibly noob question

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 08:02 AM PST

    What changes have they made to the patrol systems? I took a couple years off of active playing, and I've noticed a few things. Aside from the obvious, I've encountered some issues. For example, I'm on my Jem'Hadar character, and I'm trying to get my hands on some Deuterium, but when I go to that system, I don't get the prompt to patrol that system, and the crafting doesn't unlock for it until you do that patrol. Any recommendations?

    All refracting / chaining weapons ?

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 07:32 AM PST

    I'm trying to put together a list of all the weapons in STO that refract or chain to other targets.

    So far all I've found is

    • refracting tetryon
    • ba'ul antiproton
    • refracting energy shunt

    Please chime in if you know more. I'm going to add this as a category on the wiki... Thx for the help.

    Update: wiki category page https://sto.gamepedia.com/Category:Refracting_Weapons

    Fleet Ship Availability Oddness

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 10:14 AM PST

    Fleet Ship Availability Oddness

    Has anyone else seen any oddness in which fleet ships are available/not available in the Acquire Ships Dialogue?

    On the one side of the coin, it is showing the Fleet Duvqu' Heavy Destroyer (the fleet version of the LTS klingon destroyer) as available to me, although showing the availability criteria in red and despite the fact I meet what's listed, it still appears that under the hood, it's checking for LTS and so not letting me have it. I assume in theory I shouldn't be able to see it at all unless I go LTS. It's also only the klingon version I can see, I cannot see the fed/rom/jem equivalent ships (or the normal T6 version)

    On the other, I don't appear to be able to see either the T6 versions or the fleet versions of the Jem/Rom recon destroyers from the second destroyer pack at all in the ship selector. I can reclaim the one I own (the Rahhae) from the zen store, but it still doesn't show up in the acquire ship selector (which of course doesn't allow me to get the fleet version.) It shows the fed/kdf equivalents just fine.

    I guess I shouldn't be able to see this.

    Random thought

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 10:04 AM PST

    So I am not a super wealthy person, and thus I have to build up in game to buy things that normally would cost money (which is totally fine!) So I have about 8 characters (I know, you have more lol) that I use to do admiralty or mining. I do it twice a day, when I first go on, and then again late in the day when the reset happens so I can refine the ore. I swear I must spend about 3 hours a day just swapping characters and getting the 8k (8.5 on a fleet character) lol.

    Not a complaint, just a fact of my life and wondering If anyone else suffers as I do lol.

    Help? i'm confused or game bugged

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 09:21 AM PST

    hi! my first post here in this group. but, been playing the game for a while now. and, is it possible too miss progression quests accidentally?

    i'm playing on console, and i had a pop up for the next story quest appear just as i hit level 50. which, i think a admiral thing popped up telling me i would get a new ship, which i assume tier 6. but, since both pop ups happened at once, the story quest covering the ship quest. when i exited out of the storyline quest pop up, the ship thing vanished. and i've not seen any notifications or any other pop ups for this thing, when i can see in the log it did in fact show up. am i just, screwed by a bug? or, will i still get a chance too get the next tier of ship?
