Are they giving the Undine ships out or are you guys buying them off the exchange/with lobi?

I had 40 keys that I bought when they price dipped, opened 40 boxes. Bought 2 more keys off the AH because I'd picked up 2 boxes in an instance run, nicor was in the first of those two. Got two lowball offers in tells instantly and an in-game mail offering me 5 keys and 10M EC for it!

Spoilers for the new Episode: I was surprised to see an Iconian of all races actually show up during the celebration segment. Interestingly, she (I'm assuming she) had a very similar design at was shown in that one Star Trek magazine scan, though she was more a blue/green color scheme than the red/white one. Either way, I enjoyed her rather dismissive short rant of "So you managed to win. Congratulations. Don't do it again." I can only wonder what happened with Sela now.

There is a cruiser you could buy for way too much lobi, but it can be bought on the exchange for EC. The nicor is Box/exchange. Chances of getting ships from boxes are traditionally horrifically bad. 1% or less on the first day and it gets worse from there.

Yeah, never ever buy keys. Exploit the people who do instead. Energy credits are far easier to acquire and give guaranteed results.

The new OP is incredible. Thanks for putting it all together, Ludikro. I would like to just pop in and request this be added to the video list: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtVYyZaz7f8 It's the Dental ticker tape parade on Bajor.

Couple hours with the nicor: It's not worth 200M but it's solidly worth 140-160. It's good.

The Elachi S'goth isn't bad for the cost either assuming it's still cheap (I paid 60 for mine. Edit: Speaking of good value for the cost; vanilla distruptors and currently selling really cheap on the exchange now that the pubbies are going for the fancy nanite/Elachi/fleet versions. Vanilla disruptors are also account bound so you can move them between alts with an account bank. Lagomorphic fucked around with this message at 04:56 on Apr 23, 2014 |

Also, for anyone who hasn't tried it yet: don't do Undine Assault with pubs. It's kind of like a DOTA map, and like most MOBA-likes, starting with a crappy group will doom you to failure and tedium before you even begin. Even if it goes well the mark reward-per-time is absolute poo poo that's somehow even worse than Azure Nebula (32 with no chain/extra rift bonus and it can easily take a half hour or more with crappy pubs), and while the friendly ship spawns are theoretically supposed to help players against the Undine spawns, in practice the NPC ships just die quickly and if whoever's in the lane can't keep pace with the Undine spawns (and if they're pubs, they won't) the lane is quickly pushed back to its spawn as the allied NPC ships spawn one at a time and get ganked while the pubs flail impotently. The only way I've seen a pub group handle it is by doing one lane at a time with all five people, and that takes loving ages. It looks like it could be fun with a premade, and I'm curious what sort of rewards it'd give out, but otherwise... just do viscous cycle instead. Or better yet, the battleground.

Kind of hard to aux2bat, when the other two techs are hanging out idle. I actually logged in to find my jhdc having an older fit than I haven't used for a week or so. Also, all my doff (both space and ground) were no longer in the their active roster. This is how I discovered that I could only have one tech on the active roster.

Is the Hirogen armour worth using up one key to open a lockbox for lobi?
|
# ? Apr 23, 2014 08:48 |
|
You'd be getting it for the space barbie options. The armor itself isn't anything special. It does, however, look pretty kickass, and an impromptu 75% discount is nothing to laugh at.
|
# ? Apr 23, 2014 09:09 |

The armor's pretty good and has a fun effect, but it's not part of a set and thus loses out a fair bit due to that. It's great to shove on a BOFF or something though. And as mentioned, you get the costume unlock... which counts as uniform options rather than its own armor category, so you can mix and match it with uniforms, kit/armor graphics, and so on. And there's literally no reason not to get it now unless you have absolutely no lobi or credits, it'll never be this cheap again. Unrelated... apparently there's a bug with the Undine battlezone where you can have every objective captured but the timer gets frozen, so the planet killers don't spawn. No rewards for anyone! The only way to fix this is to let the undine recapture a point and have the timer reset due to it... but this is impossible since invariably half the pubbies in the zone fly off to bravely deny themselves rewards despite half the zone yelling at them to wait.

This happened to me a couple times, they just run immediately to red zone and do that every time, no waiting, straight killing and then, they complain and complain and curse and etc... I lost couple of rewards because of that. They just don't listen.
