- Just got 1st place in the Guantlet that ended last night ... first time ever, netting me the achievement.
DIP - Crafty, Scoundrel, Costumed
- Locutus
- Armus
- The Caretaker
- Guinan
- Marshal of France Q (65%)
- 450 Merits and 0 dil spent over the 2 days.
Were the crew that did it for me, with Q being outstanding (first time I've used him). Started day 1 off really poor with win streaks of 3, 1 4 and 7 ... but managed to hit a 27 win streak to end it. Was up around 300 pts an hour before end (last time I checked in) on some of those captains with eXo and [fleet initials] in their names.
The guantlet before I'd come in second by 10 pts ... thought it would be a while before I had another chance ... but hey.
The post above by me was about that guantlet.
So, to all those with a decent crew (I'm missing the likes of Gowron, the 5* Honor Hall crew, bloated Phlox etc. etc.) and not willing to spend dil ... it can be done
up next ... I'm at 6478/7000 guantlet rounds for the achievement ...
I was one of those Captains with eXo in their names. I don't really post here but just wanted to say congratulations and very well done. I got beaten up by your Marshal several times...
But it was a fun gauntlet with you ;-)

Marshal of France Q is pretty great. I’m disappointed in myself that I waited to level him until I got the last star...
Congratulations @RaraRacinlg on your achievement. It is great to get to #1 without spending dil. And I agree about Marshall Q. I left him low in level and needed him for a Q event and then noticed how useful he turned out to be.

Thanks, captains from fleets like eXo, [10F] etc. are a guiding light and good to know that on my best day I have a chance. Hope to see you again soon.
See you all in the Guantlet (forum regular Prime Lorca is in the top 5 of my current one).
From my own experience, I think it best to completely throw out the very concept of expectations when Mirror Phlox takes on Mirror Phlox, as literally anything is possible.
For months after I bought Kahless, I nicknamed him "Useless the Unforgivable" as even fully equipped at level 100, he couldn't win a gauntlet match to save his life. A fresh, non-fatigued FE Kahless would regularly lose to 3* crew like Command Wrap Kirk and Dr. Selar (to say nothing of his inability to beat a 4* or 5* opponent). And these were all matches he should have won hands down, complete blowouts in his favor on paper. After 5 or 6 support tickets over the course of several months, the issue allegedly "fixed itself" (support claims they did nothing to fix my Kahles), and he actually wins at acceptable rate in gauntlet now.

Going for box 9...........
And 65% wasn't what it used to be.
How much consecutive bad luck is a person supposed to endure in a game designed for "fun" before their head explodes?
I have never seen Admiral Nechayev lose!
Then...a few rounds later, Deanna Borg took him out for Seven.
I made Spock take out my frustrations.
Poor Ezri...
So I had to go for it, and just laugh.
