So I was sent the free t6 andromeda cruiser email with the offer to upgrade my highest level captain to 60. Prob is in my case my highest level captain is a romklank. Will they allow me to upgrade my highest level fed or would I end up with an unusable ship on my klank?

The email says that the code gives you enough XP to set your highest level character to 60. If I deleted my highest level character (an engineer) before using the code, would it boost the highest current level character?

You redeem a box with the XP in it from the zen store, so you can use it on any character really but they do need to be level 50 in the first place.

You just have to claim the box full of XP from the Promotions tab of the store, you can claim it on any 50+ character. "Your highest level character" has nothing to do with it.

When I checked it out on my Fed, there were two parts to the promotion that I could claim from the c-store. One of them was the booster that raises your character from 50 to 60. The other one was a ship, which only seemed to be visible on my Fed and not on any of my Klanks. I'm not sure if you can claim those two on different characters.

You can claim them on different characters. Unlocking the ship from the promo tab just unlocks the actual c-store ship. The exp box contains enough exp to take a fresh pre-DR 50 character to level 60, at level 60 this adds up to about 7 spec points and change.

Borticus, ever since you posted to Twitter, the party balls are going up in many major social maps. The lag problems were getting way better with the latest hardware upgrades and optimization patches, but now a handful social maps are becomming near-unplayable.

Trolls gonna troll, but at least the trolls themselves can be blamed for lagging the game.

I don't find it funny at all. Now that you posted it they're showing up all over the game and you find this funny? Disco balls need to be changed that you can't have more than one on a map at any given time. Or fix the nullifier to the point that people who have them can't see disco balls at all.

if they keep their **** at drozana, np, but they use also the disco balls on k7. i'm really sad for these players, the only way for having fun for them in this game, is to annoy the others. disco balls are funny but sometimes and in particular situations, used too often, they are just boring and ridiculous.

There's multiple ones on Ganalda, too. My KDF alts are not amused & will be acquiring nullifiers soon. I'm not amused with the FPS drop thanks to them, either. When the bugs drag down performance, it's an issue.

Why these stupid eyesores can't be limited to activation only on Risa, in clubs & on the dance floors of fleet bases is beyond me, they serve zero purpose in the game outside those areas. In the meantime, nullifiers FTW.

All those will persist for five more days, unless they do an emergency maintenance literally just because of disco balls.

And not just disco balls exactly, but just because borticus wanted to make a joke about dental on Twitter.
