more skirmishes = more chance of getting honor/chrons meh
one thing I don't understand though is the incentive to buy the legendary ahead of the event if it may not have the necessary traits to get the VIP - surely this devalues event crew (potentially) and would surely discourage spending on packs beforehand if it's not necessary/effective enough.
oh, I am pretty sure they will be diligent in ensuring that the event 5* is the only crew that qualifies for nodes, especially the final 2000 VP node. This was how last event was, where only phlox triggered it.
I ran Goran'Agar and got full bonus the whole time...
That was due to the event bug where Dominion was a hidden trait for all nodes. If you look at only the displayed traits that were *supposed* to trigger the 100% bonus, it was Physician Civilian I believe

So, I might be a very small minority, but I actually like that ruafo doesn’t always give event bonuses in this skirmish.
Why? Because it increases the chance that people have to change crew between battles, which lowers scores. Skirmishes are grindy enough as it is....
If people had no choice but to change crew between battles (well, doesn't apply for most people in the current event, really, but perhaps the next one), then it would not become less or more grindy, it would be merely the nature of the grind that would change. (To add: the latter would change for the worse, imo. At least I can watch TV while spamming battles. Not so if I have to scroll through MySpace circa 2003 to select crew...)
As always, how grindy it gets depends entirely on how hard everyone else is competing. This change would not affect that part.

this is what I mean I only ran with Yelgrun and got full bonus - didn't even have to waste chrons on away missions to level him up.
