Season 10.5

we dont have an armada yet
its unfortunatly not cross faction so kdf fleet will remain separated

i didnt have much time yet to play but i tried to test the main changes in this season

adv. PVEs dont fail anymore
rewards seem to be ok... difficulty scales didnt change

Bug hunt is unplayable since it now requires to keep this lieutenant alive
but that is the only change i noticed on elite PVEs

the W->S warp core indeed was replaced with a A->S version (despite the negative feedback on this change)

The new fleet holding is making progress and will be build about when you come back home.

The DMG mod weapons have turned into a very good alternative to CrtD ... there are even scenarios where DMG weapons are better than the expensive CrtD weapons.
This in conclusion means that our fleet members easily can create a nice Antiproton build by using adv. Fleet weapons.
Here the [DMG]x3 + [CrtD] will be a great choice for our members.
These weapons perform extremely good and you get an UR version by default. All you need to do is to upgrade it to mk14.
The costs compared to the old Crafting weapons is minimal. If players want to upgrade to epic thats ok... but UR versions of these weapons are pretty good already.

The new story episode is... very well done.

There are 4 new genetic resequencers but in not 100% sure about these traits.
Interesting are the cross faction starship traits which you can buy right from the exchange now (if you dont want to open lock-boxes).
Getting Reprocity on KDF or Romulan chars clearly is a nice change.

wouldnt surprise me if they still party there

btw. there also should be a new assignment chain... but ive not tested it yet
reward on crit = 50k dil
normal reward = 10k dil

The dil exchange prices also seem to drop now.

lol

these new science consoles certainly will change the war
