I finally figured it out

It's that time of month again, time for campaign reward withdrawal...but i finally figured out a way to defeat it:

hold off on buying the premium tier until today because I wanted the slot open for the mega, and now i can space out the packs until the next campaign starts :)

Did anyone else wait until the event ended to go get Scrooge Data?

    I waited to buy the Premium track until the last day of the first Campaign, to ensure that I'd reach the last tiers. It was exciting, but having had that excitement once, I don't see much point trying to recreate it. I'd rather have the loot as I unlock it.

    Not me; I had to have Scrooge Data at the earliest possible time without spending dilithium for additional accolades! He's been my in-game avatar since, with the exception of several days when René Auberjonois died and I went with Jazz Musician Odo in tribute. After Christmas, I'll revert to Colonel Worf.

    I've done it previously even for the free tier. I didn't have M-113 before her campaign, so i waited until I could get all 4 copies at once so I could level and freeze immediately.

    I'm waiting on buying the premium campaign this month. If DB has a better offer before the campaign ends I'll buy that. If not, I'll buy the campaign the last day.

    Po at 4/5 is a great crew, plus all the other stuff you get in the campaign, including the legendary cite? There’s no way any other offer beats that at the cost of $12.

    Likely not. I'm debating Data vs Po. I need to compare stats, but they seem fairly similar.

    I have until Wednesday to decide on buying the campaign. It's unlikely DB has a better offer between now and then, but it costs me nothing to wait the extra couple days to see. If they come out with a crazy Dec 25th offer I won't regret having bought the campaign 2 days earlier.

    I have to ask... why are she, Janeway, and Ru'afo at level 99? I'm curious.

    You'll have to explain that one, if you'd be so kind.

    I’m guessing it’s when people never take the fifth star in a behold you avoid getting an all immortal behold later. I’m of the opinion that this is self destruction as it keeps your crew quality down

    I would take Po. She is a jury rigger and is eng-dip to Data who is dip-com. I think she has a higher voyage score too but been a while since I ran the numbers.

    I meant the level of the crew (99) not the fusion level. I totally get the idea on not FF to avoid an all immortal behold.

    Po over Data. For the reasons above (spot in Jury Rigger and better skill set). Currently Po is voyage #42 and Data #46. Likely translates into a negligible difference.

    If a Crew is Level 100/FF, you cannot use them in a Fusion. For instance, I literally Immortalized Captain Janeway less than a day before the Evolved Janeway Fusion was a thing. I now have a 99 Mutated Paris, with FE, and 2*. Soon as a Voyage or Pack is nice to me and drops Janeway, I can cite him, and do the Fusion. Then Train to 100, and Robert is your mother's brother........


    EDIT: Him being FE makes Evolved Janeway FE when they are Fused..........

    No, that mentality has been around for a couple years. Several people in my fleet do this, and I don't understand it either, since those crew don't have a chance of ever being fused with something else. (IMO)

    You do get a jump in skill/prof points from 99 to 100, which it seems to me you would want to maximize for factions, voyages, etc.

    so again, just makes no sense...

    Back when trainers were scarce, I would leave crew at level 99. It's been a year or better since I've done that.

    I normally troll threads with vague titles, but I like das411, so he gets a pass. I prefer to buy the campaign early so I get my legendary early. They're usually useful by 3/5, so I hate to miss out on that extra week. The lull between campaigns is just a couple days where I have my legendary sooner than I would otherwise. :)

    February will likely be the Picard series mega. You could use them then on a new Picard or a new Seven.
  • eXo | das411eXo | das411 ✭✭✭✭✭
    you mean you guys don't leave your crew at 99 so they can still pick up XP from expeditions ship battles clearing new nodes when we get new episodes? :wink:
    and also i can control when i hit certain achievements or collections to keep things like chrons or dil in reserve, instead of just adding it all to the pile!

    I think I prefer bluffing Kirk. He faked his desperation in screaming of Khan.
