Tribble Sulu stealth nerf - Unintended stat change in the process of being fixed - edited by ~Shan

PSA to players: Tribble Sulu was stealth nerfed some time after the event ended. He went from a respectable but not game-breaking voyage #64 to a middling #154.

It's his base stats that took the hit, so have fun using him in his bonus faction event today!

CMD base dropped from 1006 to 956
SCI base dropped from 1280 to 1257

Don't bother checking your in-game mail for an announcement; you won't find one.

    Wow. And not a positive one…. 😡
    Wonder if any other crew was affected as well?

    Oh wow with boosts he was over 1500 science for me. Now under. The quark in a pack is not an issue but this is. Stats should go up if anything, not this constant lowering of stats. Especially if not game breaking :'(

    @Sky Cap 18 , thank you for the warning.

    WRG has been ruining a lot for me lately. :(

    Hate to sound like a broken record, but I am convinced that the people who are making these decisions do not actually play the game. This is outrageous, especially considering that it was post release and post event rewards of this crew.

    I agree, it is infuriating, and outright scummy behavior. Chroniton refunds do not even come close to cutting it.

    Not a small nerf. Stats are unboosted.

    I think the stats should be restored on this card or a very clear reason given for why the original stats just couldn't stand.
    To say the original stats were an error doesn't really make any sense, he wasn't unbalanced. I don't see any reason to upset the players that put in a lot of work for him. I trust this will be resolved and everyone will be satisfied. I am not worried.
    I have him 2/5 and I have faith that this will be fixed.

    We're looking at our options for a fix. Our apologies!

    Thank you. I hope the stats get the slightest bump from the original. If you go too far, players who didn't compete as hard in the event will be mad. Good luck on finding a balance. :) 🤞

    @Shan Have you tried beaming the whole kit and caboodle to the Klingon’s engine room, where they’ll be no tribble at all?

    I think Tribbles seem to be blamed for a lot! Stop the Tribble hate!

    Solve the tribble problem in the mega and maybe the ones at WRG will go away too. :D

    We got rid of some tribbles in the last event and this one started smoothly. Coincidence? I think not! ;)

    I did notice this event started more smoothly.

    Back to what they were announced as would be just fine.

    Uh, has anyone checked on the location of Larkin? Has he pulled an Agent Smith and come into the real world???

    That would be ok, but a small bump for the inconvenience would also be cool. My anecdotal observation of previous changes suggests that getting it exact rarely seems to work out. Thus my suggestion of erring on the high side by just a smidge. :)

    That would be cool. Also boost Chekov’s stats.

    If they do that, I may have to submit a ticket, lol. I cited Kirk and Larkin, bought a pack for Sato, and basically burned the bridge to recap packs. :D

    Here's the new stats. I think it could push him into the top 60 voyagers.
