Is Stranded Quark The Only DIP-ENG-MED 5* Out There?

edited January 2020 in The Bridge
I was just wondering if it's currently possible to fill a voyage crew roster with purely ENG-MED or MED-ENG characters that are 5* and immortalized. CMD has Meowntain Mayweather and Delta Flyer Purris, SEC has TP Chakotay and Ba'ul, and finally SCI now has a wide variety of great cards (White Rabbit, Insect Archer, Cheesecake Seven, The Caretaker, Torpedo McCoy, Amanda, Leonardo, Mirror Stamets, Kristanna - not really - Loken, Nekkid Phlox).

Now as for DIP ... I can only see Stranded Quark. Is there anyone else I missed? I know there's Rihanna (not the singer) Mayweather, but she's only a 4* card. Thankies in advance for your help.

    According to my research, Stranded Quark is the only Dip/Eng/Med 5* crew.

    Not only that but his voyage numbers are rock solid.

    He is one of three crew who I would instantly pick in any 5* behold, even if I could add stars to the others.
    The only downside is that he is DIP main ... but at least his base numbers aren't terrible.

    EDIT - You'd almost certainly need:
    MED
    Imprinted Archer
    Indulgent Seven/Torpedo McCoy

    SCI
    Phlox
    Amanda

    ENG
    White Rabbit
    ??

    Otherwise, your score wouldn't have enough MED I think ... that second ENG seat would be needed to balance the MED and ENG scores. As I don't have most of these crew I'm not sure who'd be best.

    Anybody with Med helps my Voyages. My Dip slots usually get Prisoner Kitty Kat and Enabler Guinan. My Med always comes out low for Voyages.

    @ Scotty - If my voyage is SCI/MED or MED/SCI, it's not a problem. The only issue is MED/ENG (wurst) or ENG/MED (second-to-wurst). That's also why I decided to immurrtalize Torpedo Surgeon McCoy twice.

    I would recommend the following as light reading ... https://forum.disruptorbeam.com/stt/discussion/14834/ray-s-law-of-ten-hour-voyages/p1

    Skip page one as it is all name-calling and insults being thrown left and right ... but from pg 2 onwards there are some fine examples of just how low you can go with skills and still reach 10 hrs on a voyage (with a bit of luck).
    Yes, MED is a tough skill to crack, but if MED isn't one of the two featured skills ... just kinda forget about it is the general advice. :)

    She was the first super rare I ever got. A total workhorse in my early days.

    My ENG/MED voyages always feature the following immortals, split up between the ENG, SCI, and MED seats to maximize trait matches:

    White Rabbit
    Leonardo
    Caretaker
    Imprinted Archer

    Who fills the last two ENG/SCI/MED slots really depends on which ones are left open (again to try to match as many traits as possible). Torpedo Surgeon McCoy, Determined Janeway, Warship EMA, Pollard, Rev Phlox, Cornwell, Darth Bashir, The Keeper, and several others are my remaining immortal options and at 4/5* Juliana Tainer is also a solid contender...most of these can (and often do) take up other seats as well.
  • ENG/MED or MED/ENG voyages really are a pain to crack 10 hours with.

    I consider Imprinted Archer and White Rabbit as essentials for the combo, as they're the only 2 legendary cards who have the combo on their main 2 skills.

    eng med cmd
    eng dip med

    those would be the top holy grail combos.

    Delta Flyer Paris and Mountain Climber Mayweather are the only characters (gold) that have eng med cmd

    I only know of Quark who has ENG DIP MED

    Yeah ... there are many good options ... but the original premise the OP put forward was using crew that have both ENG and MED, hence I only used crew on the list put forward by @robownage

    I can get a solid 9.5 hrs (with some matching traits, including a maxed ship) but not to 10 so far for MED/ENG and I hardly have any of the listed crew (5 of them actually, 2 immortal ... I should probably add stars to my 2/5 Loken and 1/5 Leo/Stamets).

    Well, Four hours in:

    1wg4db5xr88u.jpg

    Bonus for Ferengi for using "Release the Krayton!!!!!" {2650 AM.} Eight Traits for Bonus +200 AM. Started with 2850. Never seen it over 3000 before......

    That's lovely. I've had a few 2950 starting AM runs that went close to 3200 AM around 4 hours and 20 minutes. :)

    ENG-MED is the only voyage combo I haven't been able to crack the 10-hour mark for yet.

    I already had Delta Paris (5/5), Caretaker (4/5) and Leonardo (4/5), so I recently cited Ba'ul, Loken and Amanda Rogers up to 4/5. I'm looking forward to combining them with a mix of my other high ENG & MED crew, in an attempt to complete my final voyage combo.

    The White Rabbit, Imprinted Archer and Stranded Quark are all on my wish list!
  • JhamelJhamel ✭✭✭✭✭
    Even with Ba'ul, Leonardo, Delta Paris, Temprisoner Chakotay and two Torpedo McCoys, it's very ruff on ENG-MED and MED-ENG. My Caretaker is only 1/5 at this point, same with Stranded Quark. Once those are done, things might look a little better. Insect Archer, White Rabbit, Loken, Mandy ... those are just dreams for me.

    I did some fiddling around with some numbers today based on a MED/ENG voyage that was returning ... My top 12 combined voyage stats for a MED/ENG voyage are:

    - Bell Riots Bashir (imm)
    - The Caretaker (imm)
    - TP Chakotay (imm)
    - Cornwell (imm)
    - Leo (1/5)
    - Determined Janeway (imm)
    - Etana Jol (imm)
    - Loken (2/5)
    - Queen Po (3/5 - imm soon)
    - Pollard (imm)
    - Q as God (imm)
    - Ru'afo (imm).

    This would give me: CMD 3.933 / DIP 6.234 / SEC 4.469 / SCI 7.066 / ENG 12.733 / MED 9.596.

    I'd probably send Ru'afo packing, dopping ENG a bunch (to about 11.000) and add in Bartender Guinan or AoS Crusher (both imm) to raise MED to around 11.000 ... that's the best I can do. I recalled a MED/ENG voyage this morning at 9 hrs with 452 AM to spare (didn't have time to babysit it) ... Had Guinan instead of Po I think.

    I've had fleetmates suggest they think the white rabbit should be an Easter-time campaign offering, what would you guys think? Who here would pay $10 to get him (it?) at 4/5?

    You spelled "5/5" wrong. I use the Citation to finish mine out.

    Or even a copy in the mail, then we could get four more from the Campaign.

    If the Mugato was 4 🌟, would be perfect for the free Tiers. Since they have the same footprints.........

    I don’t think I would have any problem taking on a second copy.

    Since campaigns are a good total pack and I do not have the rabbit I would certainly bite :smile:
