True. It's a challenge these days to find a pug to do some stf's. And once you get into an advanced stf, most the time the players are well below 10k dps and the whole lot fails.

They indeed seem to take more notice of what is been said on the forums. Or they did the maths and noticed a dip in profits since the release of DR.

I'm also just a few days away from getting T5, but I'm gonna hold off getting the rest of the set for now as I don't really need it. So far I have been quite happy with the Assimilated Borg set.

As much as I can gather, they increased the skill points you receive, but also increased the skill points required to level up. Basically this change doesn't actually change anything apart from confusing the player base.

I have got the deflector, which is ok. Nothing world shattering, but the rest indeed doesn't look all that impressive.

Hehe, I like that.

And the Romulans and KDF still get left behind.

Thanks to all involved in creating CF 2.0. I downloaded it ok, but have currently some issues installing it. I clean everything out over the next few days and try a clean install from scratch.
Although I haven't been very active on CF, due to other things I was involved with, I can hopefully split my time between STO and CF solely without the distraction of other FL mods I played for the last god knows how many years
Cya all out there.

Just reached lvl 60 with my main (Science Officer in a T5-U Fleet Assault with MK XII gear on advanced setting), have just over 1000 Delta marks and almost Tier 5 in reputation system. Now I can start on the Bug Hunt Adv as I will need the Ancient Power Cells fairly soon. Saying that, looking at the rep gear, it is only MK XII, like the other rep gears from the various rep systems. I would have expected/hoped that the Delta Rep gear would be at least MK XIII.

I haven't used any torps in a while, so haven't noticed any change yet. I use all beams and KCB on my build. However, I get the distinct feeling that my KCB is not as effective as it used to be. I think that is going to be an upgrade project sometimes in the near future.

I found Mirror invasion not that bad this time. Rather easy in a good Pug who knows what they doing.

Not much point in using them now then. They popped like fly's as it is without the nerf. I guess in a few weeks/month we can buy elite versions with increased hitpoints and shields for a ridiculous amount of Zen.

Wow, hit lvl 58 last night and there is a ton of xp I have to get before getting to lvl 59, not to mention lvl 60. And I'm sick of patrol missions already. Well, better get on with it I suppose.

Someone on the STO Forums posted a YouTube link which talks about how F2P games loose players. I found it rather interesting.

A good number of players just did doff missions to level up. Which means they didn't buy Bonus boxes, hence making no money for Cryptic/Arc. So it had to be nerfed.
Nerfing the tribble marks? That is just plain ridiculous.
I was quite happy to spend some money from time to time to get Zen, but that's not gonna happen now any more. There's no logical reason to upset the player base like this.

Good to know. I might try this out over the weekend.
I just checked on STO Academy, and it has been updated with the new stuff, i.e. T5U Ships, T6 Ships and MKIVX Gear. The new Admiral Ranks are included too.

You could register for free on STO Academy and use their Skill Planner and post the link here. That should work ok.

Wonder if this will be nerfed as well. Hope not.

Ah, I didn't get this mail. I'm registered from the UK and I believe only players registered in Germany received this mail. There is a post about this on the STO forum about this as well. Not sure what the outcome was though.

I haven't concentrated on all of them. I got Beam, Cannon and Engineering on lvl 15, Projectiles on lvl 14, Ground Weapons and Shields on lvl 2 and Science on lvl 5.
