Homestead Janeway skill set speculations

Mr. HobbsMr. Hobbs ✭✭✭
in The Bridge
I just watched the episode "resolutions". I think it is likely that the card "Homestead Janeway" will be built one of two ways:

1) She has a single SCI skill, with an incredible base, like Dr. 'Bones' McCoy.

2) She becomes the first Janeway to have a MED primary. Something like, MED>SCI>CMD (an argument could be made for DIP or ENG as the tertiary).

What do you think?

    I hope for the second option

    I would be excited for MED/COM/SCI, MED/COM/ENG, and MED/DIP/ENG...less so for MED/SCI/x thanks to the bounty of strong MED/SCI crew offered in the second half of 2019.

    I like MED/CMD/ENG idea. She'd get a quick cite. Or MED/ENG/CMD.

    100% agreed. I would love a MED/CMD/ENG or MED/DIP/ENG. After watching the episode, however, I don't think it's likely that she won't have SCI. Fingers crossed for "pleasantly surprised". ;-D

    MED/ENG/SCI?
  • Prime LorcaPrime Lorca ✭✭✭✭✭
    I tapped the thread because I wanted to suggest the single skill SCI, but you led with that, lol. I think she was pretty bossy in the episode, so I'm thinking SCI/CMD/MED or maybe SCI/MED/CMD. I hope for the latter, but expect the former. Although that monkey could lead to a surprise DIP skill.

    I had the exact same thought about the monkey. ;-D

    My vote goes for MED/SCI/CMD, in that order. It'll probably be SCI/CMD/MED.

    We don't know when these temporary achievements are supposed to begin, right?

    It was mentioned in @[10F] Captain Idol stream last week (the one with the WR guest). In the stream it was confirmed that we can expect several things between now and this summer.

    I don't remember exactly what was said about Janeway, but I believe we are supposed to get her soon. Possibly in the next month or so.
  • EnderWEnderW ✭✭✭✭✭
    How about a CMD/MED/SCI? Best that I know, there isn’t a legendary CMD primary, MED secondary in the game (am I right about that?).

    The intake message said the Pack this month. Nothing said {that I recall} about if the Achievements will be concurrent. I would venture they might feel that getting her free from Achievements at the same time as the Pack, or close after, would cause Pack sales to take a hit.

    Yup, you are correct. It was in TP's correspondence where I saw "later this month". Thanks! =D

    The announcement said:
    Expect the correspondent theme pack to become available later this month, but also to be able to obtain this new crew by completing temporary achievements.

    I'm afraid she'll be a one skill SCI as some people for one reason or another are asking for this.

    I honestly would not mind this. Don't get me wrong, I'd be over the moon if she was a MED/CMD/ENG, but a SCI only, with a base like McCoy, would be acceptable; even appreciated.

    Most Janeways have SCI. Which means most Janeway events will be SCI heavy. Which would make a Janeway, with a SCI base of 1.6-1.7K, a beast.

    Just from a collecting perspective, I can see the appeal of doing one super-powered single skill crew for each skill, especially considering the ease of access of the temporary achievement chars. This would be especially appealing if they put them all in a new collection with the release of the final one...AND if they updated the old Captain Scott’s eng skill to be on par with Bones McCoy and used him to cover the eng slot. I realize they don’t normally update char skills once they’re released, but they DID adjust Locutus’ skills at one point. And if you were ever gonna make an argument that an old character needed an update, I don’t see how Captain Scott couldn’t be at the top of that list.

    As far as THIS Janeway goes, I honestly don’t even remember the episode. Which episode was it?

    The episode is "Resolutions". Season 2, episode 25.

    I think your argument, for Captain Scott, is a good one. And, much like the new art for Blood Oath Jadzia, if they only end up doing it once, Capt. Scott is the perfect card.

    I thought WRG_Ben said that it would be during the mega event. That gives them another week and a half, if I'm remembering that correctly.

    Ah, so one week at the most. Today and the 30th are Tuesdays. I sure wouldn't mind a little extra action on a Tuesday.

    With Q as "God", Soji, and the Bashirs, I'm good on that combo. I hope she gets a skill order that differs from the ones I have. CMD instead of DIP would have been preferable, but hey, maybe Janeway will have traits that give my voyages with MED, DIP, or SCI an extra 25 AM here and there.

    Funnily enough, DIP/SCI/MED is the only skill trio where I have a legendary of every configuration.

    A few trios are close. I need a DIP/CMD/SEC, which is fun since I have 15 legendaries with those skills, just not in that one order. I also need a CMD/DIP/SCI and a ENG/MED/SCI.

    Edit: Apparently there is no legendary with CMD/DIP/SCI in that order.
