. I like having a use for the couple dozen miscellaneous ships I have hanging around my hanger, and a lot of ships I don't really fly (like the dyson science destroyer) get a new life.

Subtraction is just adding a negative, though for clarity it should've said "Ignores TAC modifiers from events".

Technical Analysis posted:Banks + omnis or arrays are the way to go. In fact thanks to mission rewards and crafting, you can get two tetryon omnis these days if you want to use blue over anti protons red. I'm glad I read the last few pages today as it would seem my old DHC boat is in need of some changes after all. At least finding out now that I should change to beams saves me from finding out after sticking tons of effort into upgrading my cannons. The post about grabbing the almost perfect mk vii stuff is also a great tip. While I'm posting, are there decent disruptor damage omni weapons? If not, stick with turrets or try wide arc things in the rear slots? Edit: and is my hyper plasma torp still worth using or all beams now?

The post about grabbing the almost perfect mk vii stuff is also a great tip. You can craft/buy a Disruptor Omni beam, and that's pretty much it. Someone else feel free to correct me, but your best bet will be to grab seven beams in the flavour of your choosing and the Borg Kinetic Cutting Beam. I'm running Plasma Disruptors right now but seriously eyeing off the new lockbox Herald Antiprotons. Has anyone played with them?

They aren't great, the bonus to weapon damage is unreliable and subject to Cryptic math, and they lose out on the innate CrtD. Use them is you like the color, but eh. The real best beams are Phased Polarons. Gotta bring the Funk

Has anyone played with them? On the other hand, a lot of this is spergy max-DPS advice. Pubbies are really bad at this game, and outside of elite STFs the content is all balanced around horrible pubbie builds. You can run whatever you want and complete all the missions in the game. Follow some really basic ship-fitting advice and macro all your boff powers so that they're active as much as possible and you'll be fine for normal STFs and some advanced ones. So just run what makes you happy.

Hey guys, so I watched a couple videos on this game and it seems pretty cool. I've never played a MMO before, but I've always been a trekkie and liked what I saw. I could feel myself getting sucked in just watching the videos. So is this game still worth getting into? Or am I a couple years late to the party? I dunno what pubbies are but trolling them with other goons sounds fun, along with going on pedo patrol.

Some of the plot stuff and content is pretty good. Sadly, it peaked at fighting cybernetic dinosaurs in a dyson sphere. Game is ultra-casual, playing space barbies with the character creator is pretty good.

Ok so, is this happening to anyone else ? tl;dr - what the game is displaying for DOFF and Admiralty job rewards is off by anywhere from 20% to 75% when compared to what the Reward channel shows. I had 4 Admiralty jobs finished, 3 of the 4 had exceedingly wrong Fed Campaign XP displayed. The only one that was right was the "Divert Attention of Hostile Spaceborne Entity". The others: Escort High-Security Prisoner Transport - Displayed Campaign XP is 3,179, got 579 Transport Political Prisoner Into Custody - Displayed Campaign XP is 2,940, got 340 Investigate Stable Astronomical Phenomenon - Displayed Campaign XP is 3,072, got 472 code: Here's the DOFF job screenshot:  Note how Skill Points, Expertise and Trade XP are all wrong compared to what the text log shows. E2A: All of the above is apparently a "Known Issue".  tl;dr All displayed results are a lie, go figure.some bug hunter at Cryptic posted:The doff issue has been reported and confirmed. It appears the Doff rarity bonus (+5%, +10%, +20% for uncommon, rare, very rare) is not applying to actual rewards but is applying to the display.

I'm considering messing around with a Tetryon build on a Fleet Arbiter, would Refracting Tetryons be the best choice when using FaW/APB/GravWell/SensorScan/IonicTurbulence/DestabilizingResonanceBeam? Figured that if they're all bunched up real nice, the refracting proc might be a good idea.

He didn't go into specifics about what he was really talking about. Maybe someone can add some content to this. The ships will be sent to your in-game mail.

pubby you can find. This can be either by their outfit, content of their bio or through their actions or chatter; something that makes the pubby you found the most unnerving and creepiest of Halloween monsters.

The most important question when selecting beams is this: Do you like the color? If the answer is yes, you've found your beam of choice.
