Exchange chrons for quantum.
I might hit the 1000 level, but not the 10k

- 19,500 ISM
- 1,500 Quantum (nearly 2 free 5* crew retrievals)
- 1 skill constellation
- 1 rarity constellation
- 1 super-rare polestar
- 1 legendary polestar
EDIT: We could also overlap this objective event with the month-long OE, by working through a chunk of the 250 ship battles with the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 requirement.

I'm pretty sure quantum can go over 1k. It just stops accruing. So you need to claim, then retrieve a crew immediately.
What even are we trying to accomplish here, other than prove that players can be manipulated into wasting resources?
Yes. It stops accruing if you hit 1000 and you get an alert in the tab that it is full. I think a yellow number before you click the Tab and an exclamation mark when you do click the tab.
Like Chronitons, collecting gift ones should exceed the max, but I would love official confirmation.
This is the best thing ever. Until I run out of credits. Or chrons. But more likely credits. 60 Veterans here I come!
Yep. If you're one of the players who has a MASSIVE amount of resources banked, maybe this is appealing.
I can't afford the in-game resources for this, and if I try to I'm going to have no chance of placing at all decently in either this week or next week's events.
I am not a fan of this.
This week’s event can be problematic for some. Next week is easier when you could just prefarm certain resources.
I don’t spend chrons during Galaxy events. I keep stashes of components and refresh them when appropriate. I could probably finish in the Top 30 for both if I felt like doing the tapping (I don’t).
One of these OE’s combined with a Skirmish is more problematic. Skirmishes require you to spend chrons while the event is in play.
On the other hand, this is giving you 1.5 5* retrievals. That's any 5* you want. Depending on the event crew, that can be worth more than ranking in the event.
they wont even make it in the next portl updaate, but you have to wait to the one after that
I do hope we have some kind of official word on if the quantum will go over 1000. I would hate to waste it. But even if I lost a little, this still means more crew retrievals sooner.
Anyway it is a nice change of pace from the weekly Gauntlet-goal. It is not extremely hard to achieve (I only failed once so far when I was quite busy at work), but still it tends to stress me out. Spending 10k chrons with no time pressure is fine with me, and I like the reward.
Of course this should not take place too often -10k chrons is quite something.
Woo! I'm a veteran player!
Weird, my legendary crew retrievals are not free,
they cost me 5m credits for every retrieve. 😜
Adding credits as rewards instead of ISM would have been nice.
Maybe nxt time? 🙂
+1 on this!
So, I do support the idea of Zombie to include credits as a reward in the chroniton objective event next time.
PS: The question further above is valid and still unanswered and it's impurrtant to know - can Quantums go over 1000 or not? I don't want to claim a reward that goes to waste! Thanks in advance for a clear answer.
haha I figured somebody would eventually point that out. I just assume the quantum is far more of a limiting factor for most players than the credits.
I like this event, is a no brainer for me, but just once in a while, I wouldn't be able to keep up if this comes back every week or so.

I was sitting on 60M credits. I spent 10M to earn extra honor. I may spend another 10M. That still leaves me with enough for 2 retrievals from the OE, a third from my normal quantum accrual, and have plenty of extra for whatever comes up. I'm not doing anything special. I just earn my credits and don't have a ton of uses for them.
