Trek or Treat Packs

Quite a large number of crew in there - can anyone confirm if Gabriel Bell is in there?

Not that I am distrusting of the pack description but twice bitten by bugged packs I thought I would check!

    Just got him on my second pull, which was a pleasant surprise as my first pull was horrendous. And now I'm done for the day/week.

    He is shockingly NOT maxed yet. And no, I will most certainly not be the first to do it.

    Would much rather that than the "Halloween" special offer for the Discovery, which I couldn't give a second thought about.

    I just got one for $25.00 actually 2300 schematics. I really don't like these though so trade you if you get one for packs lol

    Big ol' swing and a miss by DB, I think. If it had been $25 for, say, 15-30 of the Halloween packs, I absolutely woulda bit. But I'm not paying $25 (well, $34 for me) for a ship that I'll never use and also couldn't care less about.

    100% Agreed. I can't believe they would do a special "Halloween" Offer for a ship. Makes no sense at all. Shan if you read these would you care to comment :smile:

    I was so disappointed when I looked down after reading halloween offer and the offer ended up being for the Discovery. I was hoping for the packs. Or at least a free pack as a trick or treat. lol

    Still, nice to see the new special packs. In before people whine when they disappear in the time they were supposed to because "we didn't finish our pulls".

    I did 3 pulls since I had so many characters in the pack partially fused. Sadly, I got three separate SRs I did not previously have (Baseball Rom & Kira + Galen) , exacerbating my crew slot problem. But hey, it was a gamble. And at least I got the last star on Empress Sato, who I've gotten four copies of in random pack pulls over just the last couple months. Good stuff.

    Wow.. other then the Benny Russell art, this may be the best they've done on Brooks yet.
    Definitely brings out the bad astrix in him..

    (Shrugs, not enough detail on Dominion war or 1701 Sisko.. he just looks.. like a bald generic African American man who could maybe be related. ) (Kinda like hockey Paris.. could be related to Tom, but neither his picture nor name explicitly stated that it's Tom Paris)

    Any who..
    Love that the Sisko with the shotgun has high diplomacy lol.

    Totally - I've got seven of the costumed set already 4/4, but I'd have taken a 15x10 deal with those odds without a second thought. (I did get one pack - two beholds, one my first where everyone was already 4/4, but the other had Anastasia, so I'm a happy captain.)

    TBH I just don't see the value of a new ship, no matter how good, with how I play at the moment. I've been around long enough that just getting 10x card packs has maxed a few 5* ships, and I'm not trying to get number one in the arena or squeeze every last drop out of voyages with every trait matched - those "free" 5*s do what I need just fine. Unless I was suddenly going to try to be ultra-competitive in ship-based gameplay (which I'm not) and was willing to spend all the extra money to max out Discovery (which I'm so not), literally the only thing I'd be buying for the $30 would be to have the new ship hovering in front of me in the main screen. Disco's a kind of cool looking ship, I'll give her that, but so's the T'ong I've already got, so why spend?

    With 50+ characters in the pack and needing stars on all but 5 of them, I thought this would be a good buy. So what did I get... one of the 5 I have immortalised hmm.gif

    It was Combat Medic Paris here. Although Robin Hood would have been no use to me either.

    There were 5 legendaries in that pack I don't have, plus Gabriel Bell. I really wanted the Gabriel Bell, and he is the new release. So over $500 later, still don't have any of the 5 legendaries I was missing, nor do I have Gabriel Bell. But I had over 120,000 honor.

    I'm about at the point with the way they have marketed new releases the last month or so that I am thinking of forgetting about the collecting aspect of this game, saying my crew is sufficient for now, and just sticking with event packs. Seriously, putting new releases in Best Chance packs or with 50+ other crew is just a way to try and pull in maximum dollars for a new release...

    This is their job. Event packs are a much better value if you want a specific crew. The less there are in the pack, the higher your chances of getting what you want. According to your spend level for the pack, they are doing a great job! :wink:

    Seems to be working.

    If it had only been Gabriel Bell with no other crew I needed, I would have passed with it being 50 in the pack. But with 6 crew out of the 50 I needed, I figured with that spend I would have pulled at least 1 I was missing. Nope.

    With only missing 9 legendaries and now 3 super rares, I'm at the point where I am done chasing after crew when they are packaging them in ways that RNG is truly against you.
