    Wow. Twenty five active Mirror crew, without even poking around my fridge. Maybe I can get a good run in a Fraction Event. I've been doing much better in them lately.

    At least eight in the Fridge. I know I have at least two Hoshii...............

  • So, as cool as I think Niners Ezri will be, I don't think it will be a Galactic Series 2.

    If they did, that would mean it was a Rerun event (not a Flashback). That means they'd give us Martian Quark in the thresholds, etc.

    I just don't see DB having done any more Reruns. I realize TP is running things now and might change course, but this is so recent from the purchase that this event (and the coming Mega) probably were in the hopper before the sale.

    So, I'm expecting a completely new event. Hopefully a Skirmish; we haven't had one this month.

    I brought that up when we were discussing the Mycelial Trait. She is not from the Mirror Universe. She is from the in-between..........

    Best guess is that the Discovery was in the Mirror universe when they met her, even though she herself isn’t from there.
  • I get the impression that a lot of players aren't impressed by Mirror Keyla Detmer. I mean her stats too, not just the odd art. 🙂

    At one * is she worth levelling for the event?

    Definitely. 929 security without starbase bonuses is quite good when you are dealing with a faction event.

    I'm not going to comment on the quality gulf between the artwork for Riva, and the artwork for Keyla. As Sanoa pointed out in a thread a while back, art is subjective. I'm sure someone finds Keyla's artwork good.........

    What is it you don't like about that artwork? Is it that she's looking over to the side? Because the depiction is exactly what that actress looks like.

    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

    Okay. I did say I wouldn't comment on the quality. But, since you asked........

    Riva looks like he was created by an artist. Keyla {to me} looks like she was drawn by the artist's three year old. Art is subjective. Like I said, just how different they look to me.

    In artwork terms, to me Riva looks as good as the new Klingon Jadzia art. Keyla, closer to the old Klingon Jadzia art.

    Could it also be that she is just not an attractive person?

    That, as well, is subjective. I think she is cute.


    This rendition of her? Not so much........

    Mirror Detmer's art is a pretty accurate depiction, but it gives me a visceral reaction similar to Klingon Janeway, Mutated Paris, or the Proto crew.

    (Prime) Detmer's art looks good to me, though perhaps there's also a bit of airbrushing going on there (if such a term can be applied to an artistic rendering in the first place).
  • Thanks @(HGH)Apollo !

    I agree with you. I think she’s super cute when she smiles, but she can also look hard as nails when she doesn’t. I don’t think the art is bad, but the pose (her eyes) might not have been the best choice to go with.

    She definitely has a hardness when she is not smiling. As she doesn't in the Mirror Universe.

    But, I think overall, she is an attractive lady. Of course, I have also heard people say negative things about Tilly's looks, because she is full-figured.


    But, women, like all works of art, appeal or don't appeal to people differently.

    In my opinion they just picked a wrong screenshot for her. The Pics Data1001 did post would have been much better. At least her annoyed look fits right besides Killy, like "darn, what is she doing now..?!"

    Has anybody fathomed what mirror crew they will bring out.

    I think I've worked it out out for my crew but I am a little undecided on a few:
    Mirror Garak, Leeta, Mayweather and Sheriff Worf.

    I'm considering Leeta and Garak mainly for DIP/COM seats as there doesn't appear to be many 'good' options bar my 1/5 Lorca and Mirror Burnham and too many primary and tertiary combinations of this skill set.

    Mayweather because he seems to be the best ENG/SEC specific crew.

    Sherif Worf - I have plenty of Sec/Com options but he might also be useful for a COM and DIP seat.

    The reject pile consists of
    Mirrors - Archer, Tigan, Janeway, Jennifer Sisko, K'Ehleyr, Keiko, Geordi, Sato, Sisko, Tucker, Uhura, Vic Fontaine, Prison Break Lorca and Civil War Worf.

    My reject list looks a lot like yours, full of crew too weak in any combo to be worth waking up. As for the rest, I thawed the very best (Mirror Bev, Mirror Kirk, Mirror Jadzia) and am waiting on some of the others like Keiko to see what the skill breakdown is like...I only have five more slots and don’t really want to freeze crew I use regularly to make room for bonus crew in an event I’m not going all-out in to compete for rank.

    I’ve always thought mirror Vic was decent with a bonus.

    He is good but Section 31 Georgiou (of which I have two copies) and Mirror Burnham kind of overshadow him for DIP and SEC seats IMO, and there are plenty of alternatives for single SEC seats

    My (unstudied) art opinion:

    I think she seems rather flat/two-dimensional, especially compared to the other Mirror crew. The dark uniform and near-straight-on perspective don't help in that regard, nor does the lack of any real key lighting.

    Similar reject pile though Prison Break Lorca, Leeta, Sheriff Worf are decent, theres just too many CMD SEC crew with bonus in this event so they will probably stay on ice for me.

    My crew (in rank of their faction score for their top 2 skills) - immortalized otherwise stated
    Governer Worf - 4/5
    Mirror Crusher
    Mirror Picard x2
    AOS Worf - 2/5
    Emperor Georgiou - 3/5
    Mirror Dax
    S31 Georgiou x3
    Mirror Burnham
    Captain Lorca - 2/5
    Defiant Worf
    Ba'ku Worf x2

    Gonna wait till the event starts before thawing out more crew though Im alittle worried im overly skewed towards CMD, SEC and DIP...

    I don’t want to earn any Blue Text of Shame, so I’ll just say that Mary Wiseman is a big part of why I enjoy Discovery as much as I do.
