The good thing about the faction event being last, is the 5* crew will be bonus crew in the replay/flashback event after the mega. So may be an easier event to skip.
I just realized... How many weeks is that without a full faction? Now add in all the existing Astrophysicists. Now add all of the new Astrophysicists who will be added. That is the recipe for the most competitive faction event so far this decade!
Don't tell DB, I'm truly enjoying a few weeks without shuttle events!
Factions are the only ones I can rank in, so I wholeheartedly disagree with this comment

It's been <checks watch> 3 minutes since I've seen someone disagree with @Ren~ . Right on schedule. Carry on.
I am praying he's SCI (for Picard)/ SEC (for number one)/ DIP. Some combo of DIP/SCI/CMD seems most likely, but that's the 2nd most common legendary skill set. Which I guess makes it all the more likely for DB to print him that way.
With the caveat that I haven’t signed up for CBS All-Access again and so haven’t seen a single episode: I wouldn’t be surprised if PN1 (P?) was DIP/SCI/SEC or DIP/SCI/COM. Given how crew are designed sometimes, though, maybe we should expect to be disappointed with DIP/COM/SEC?
Lewis Zimmerman and Imprinted Archer have pets and they both have MED. Oh, and Amanda Rogers with the puppies. Don't end the trend, DB!
Well, it may be a stretch, but Picard did 'treat' and soothe [redacted] with Earl Grey tea when she showed up on his doorstep all agitated and frightened. "Earl Grey — never fails." ☕
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing. ~ Data, ST:TNG "Haven"
Jean-Luc Picard: "We think we've come so far. Torture of heretics, burning of witches, is all ancient history. Then, before you can blink an eye, suddenly, it threatens to start all over again."
Astrophysicist! Did anyone guess that? I've never been happier to be wrong, this is a way better choice than Romantic or Caregiver. All of our Spocks, Burnhams, and Daxes are now on the table.
I didn't have a guess about the bonus trait, but I did say I anticipate Commander Maddox being the 3* rank reward some time during the mega. We'll know by the 12th!
When he has done so little YET. As a watcher you know he still needs certain "things" etc. before he can do more. At core he is still THE Picard though and we know his skills and qualities...
Not sure what skills new Picard will have but command seems more likely followed by science then maybe a little diplomacy.
Iunno, considering the plot of episode 2, command seems pretty damn inaccurate.
Really hard to pinpoint what skills he should have when he has done so little.
Like I stated in a previous thread ... and as this is Picard staring out at his vineyard from under a tree ... Sommelier Picard & #1
ENG/MED/SEC(DIP)
ENG - Engineering the perfect vintage (or is it a science?)
MED - the alcohol, counselling the Romulans, caring for his dog etc.
SEC - fighting (from the trailer) ... but DIP is probably more accurate from the first episodes.
One can only hope.
I wonder if we'll have to "build" the dog, or at least its collar.
PS - So far, this campaign's Seven is one of the better SEC base options ... behind EV Suit and Away Team Burnham. Oh and the new 5* Airiam, but I doubt many people will have her.

DIP and SCI are obvious, the tertiary skill could be anything.
I disagree from watching Picard,
His doctor makes a point that Picard may have an illness that would cause him to be abrupt, yell, and be less diplomatic as we have seen him be in the new series.

Vinification is most certainly SCI. So far, it's been the Romulans counseling Picard. If based solely on what we've seen through these first two episodes, I would go with:
SEC - Not for the sword fighting of the trailer, but for his sleuthing. My man has gone from cosplaying Dixon Hill to breaking and entering a crime scene! Plus, Number One is definitely SEC. Just ask that bird that came on the premises.
SCI - Vinification is obvious. Also, he's used forensics in his sleuthing.
DIP - He may not have the Midas touch of yesteryear, but he still knows how to set people at ease (Dahj), coax them into helping him (Dr. Jurati), persuade them to sign off on his medical status (Dr. Benayoun), and getting them not to shoot him on sight (Raffi Musiker).
Initially I thought of CMD, with a low base and a high proficiency to reflect that he's fallen out of favor but still has what it takes inside. But then I realized that would just make Picard and Number One an inverse of Mirror Jean-Luc Picard and then I thought too much about what the inverse of a mirror is. Besides, SEC, SCI, and DIP is a combination none of the other mega-event Recurring Legendaries have.

I agree (sort of) but DIP is the skill DB uses as filler for being around, talking to people and so on. There are people with the "brutal" trait being DIP primary already. The game also lacks skills variety to adequately reflect your alien of the week episodes so a drama show like ST: Picard makes things even harder. They have to pick some skills and it's not going to be perfect.
My prediction from the second episode for the third skill is SEC
for the forensics scenes
, so ideally that would make him SCI (he's Picard, with a scientific education, also vineyard shenanigans), DIP for existing, breathing and talking, and SEC.

Sec/sci/dip are also the skills of locutus. And would connect with the first time we saw Picard go home. But this is way more thought than DB put into it.

Exactly! As the show runner pointed out on The Ready Room with Wil Weaton, "the first 3 episodes are like 3 acts of one episode." I know I will be on the edge of my seat every episode from here on out.

Kind of like how you do not even see the Discovery until Episode Three......
Episode One & Episode Two set up the Klingon War.
