    It also gets confusing because i think it shows full stats without your buffs?

    For any crew in the vault press their art to bring this up.

    Nope ...

    but thanks ... was looking for his passives.

    @AviTrek
    Only for the active ability ... it does not show passives for the crew you do not own.

    EDIT: This has not really been a thing over the last couple of years ... all passives are kinda bland and in the same ballpark ... but older crew have insane passives (some La Forges, Da Vinci, Admiral Janeway, Mobile Doc, Frank Hollander, Ushaan Archer, Capt. Sisko, Seven of Nine and more) ... which in these days of auto battling are just basically free stats for your big hitters to make use of ... so if Mirror Culber would have Capt. La Forge/Bashir, Julian Bashir passives I'd rush to complete him ... as is I'll use the Slaver (and a Boarding ship, hey why not).

    I decided when Culber’s info went live that I’d be using Slaver. Killy is already “de-evading” me. I don’t need Culber piling on. (Not that it generally has any impact since the bad guys are dust following Killy’s attack, but ya know, it’s the principle of it. Not gonna stack negative stats on my ship.)
  • DavideBooksDavideBooks ✭✭✭✭✭
    I usually use an immortalized Locutus to get my attack up high, then use a 1, 2 punch of immortalized Garth and a 3/5 Commandant. And I fill the last seat with an event crew. I typically blow through the fights without a scratch.

    But I recently won a Killy.

    Is it better to use Garth, Commandant, and Killy and an event crew, or keep what was working? Having three crew punch at 400 is nice, but getting the attack up with Locutus first seems good. Any advice is appreciated.
  • Ishmael MarxIshmael Marx ✭✭✭✭✭
    I do the same structure as you @DavideBooks. Krayton, Locutus, Garth, Killy, and crew-of-the-week. I like that Locutus has a different init time compared to the others (in addition to his attack metrics) - bash the shields down and then have a higher attack base when the 400% crew come online. But I’m sure there are merits to the 3x 400% setup too.
  • Legate Damar Legate Damar ✭✭✭✭✭
    I use Locutus, event crew and 2 damage crew.

    Oh yeah ... I know the setup... but if the event crew has great passives (whatever their active skill might be) compared to the other then you'd kinda be silly not to ... those passives are just free stats on damage, accuracy (and evasion).

    Imagine Mirror Culber has +1825 Accuracy; +600 Crit Bonus and +600 Evasion (these are Mobile Doc's passives) ... then I'd personally slot min into the 4th seat no matter what the active ability was ... your Killy's and Garths are more sure they'll hit and each crit does even more damage ... what's not to like about that over +430 accuracy; +305 Crit Bonus; +150 Crit rating and +390 Evasion?

    But there's no way to know this ... because there's a mistake or something seems to be forgotten on a very frequent basis ...

    As it is ... I'll leave Culber at 60 and use the Skirmish to equip him (those three blue items above all require components that can be farmed through ship battles ... handy ... I wonder if that was the reason behind me asking?), while continuing equipping Beloved Annorax and spend 100 Merits to defrost the Slaver.
  • No thread for next weeks event yet, but i’d like to say smart of them to throw Spock in a rerun, two existing purples a lot of people would already have immo (I know I do) and an older gold which lessens the chances of Spock dropping so more packs- more dilithium- more $$?? Genius!! Also, does that mean a mega around the corner with Dexa as the first 5*? :wink:

    My 2/5* Commander Kira would like that third star.
    Breen Kira as an LTO would also sell. Several are waiting for her appearance in the portal. Maybe her and EV T'Pol for next week's offers would be popular.

    I’m picturing waves of Spock, T’Pol and Kira on shuttles.

    I know. I'm close three immortal gold Spocks and deciding who to defrost. I just froze the Wesley. I have a couple of each crew in the freezer. Decisions, decisions...

    I suspect you're right about her being the first one. If she's got one of the traits, it's gotta be Romantic, right?

    Also, Dexa is a freaking beast. New #5 overall Voyager, unique skillset, ranked gauntlet AND base pairs.
  • @robownage (TP - Test your Product) I was hoping for a Talaxian mega event with Leola Root Soup for all!

    Besides Anastasia, are there any event variants who are not as obvious?

    I think Kay Eaton comes up with the Kiras, but you have to think to remember her.

    Isn't it that the Discovery Spocks doesn't work when it's TOS Spock?

    All Spocks work.

    Quick vent. So I'm doing a little multitasking by using my phone to play the skirmish and using my laptop to catch up on pages of forum threads that I've missed recently... and I'm too distracted to notice that I fat-fingered the auto button a second time when I was hitting the speed-up buttons. A few seconds later, I glance back and realize my hull is down to maybe 25%, the opponent is completely healthy... and I'm toast. :s:'(

    It's been said before many times to no avail, but I'll say it again anyway - can we please put a few more pixels between the auto and speed up buttons? Please?

    OK, back to blasting ships. If you see me in the rankings, now you'll know why my VP total ends in "250".

    Happy skirmishing, everyone!

    Threshold begold - but it’s a dud.

    Went with Troi just for event potential, but will likely airlock.

    I like Opaka the best as a character. But Troi was the right choice for gameplay. She occasionally is useful for gauntlet, even with 2 skills, because of her traits.
  • W.W. CarlisleW.W. Carlisle ✭✭✭✭✭
    Soval has some profiencies and does get the traits from time to time. There are better, but you could do much worse.

    Why am I not getting full bonus with mirror scott on my skirmish crew? Getting 875 instead of 1k.
  • Legate Damar Legate Damar ✭✭✭✭✭
    you sure it's mirror instead of scared Scotty?
  • Thorozar Thorozar ✭✭✭✭

    Hah could very well have been. I just swapped to orion slaver so got full rewards that way.

    I'd have taken T'Pol for the event next week in your case. She's got decent Dip profiencies, i noticed. Me for me, however, would have gone for Valeris- I have the other two immortal and still need two stars for her, FE'd. I picked up Queen G. Kira in a behold today and you were offered a T'Pol. I have had a suspicion that there is a mechanic that weights event useful crew leading up to it for a while now. Has anyone else noticed this? I also think schematic bundles drop more frequently for the ship you have equipped. I rotate what I'm flying based on the one closest to finishing, because of this suspicion, and I've maxed FOUR in less than a week- Kumari, Disco, Sarcophagus Ship,and Keldon, in order of rotation. Assimilated Voyager is up. It is 8/10, so we'll see.

    Normally I would have too, but I don't have the slots available. I have Captain T'Pol already 2/4* so hopefully she will look after me to get 2* more in the event. And Harry has been FE for so long, I picked him up 1/4* accidentally when he was the community reward in the first event I ever played (before I knew what I was doing) and I've not seen him again until today, so I had to give him some love.
