Squadron leaders sharing crew

So I'm a squadron leader with a couple of new players in my squadron to which a common complaint is levelling up to compete in events.

Would it be so hard for DB to allow squadron leaders to share 1* and 2* crew from pulls basic pulls that would otherwise just be airlocked. There by making the game easier to level up when starting out.

    I’m not sure I’m following here. It seems the suggestion is “why not always be able to share crew instead just during Faction events” unless I'm mistaken. That would be a nice feature for newer players, even if the shared crew was limited to 1*, 2*, or even 3* crew.
  • Are we entirely sure that 1* and 2* crew are what's needed to compete in events?

    It doesn't sound like this solution would solve the problem you have highlighted.

    Sounds like crew trading. Not going to happen.

    This is a good idea, if perhaps the wording should be clarified. @Dirk Gunderson restated it well. If I could share a good low crew, even for no reward, it would help new players. Then during faction events I could share a better crew.
  • As squadron leaders can share crew already, using crew members that are gained through credits used in basic pulls, could help new players level up quicker. Especially for use in cadet missions.

    I should've clarified this is a compliant made during events, as these seem to highlight the fact if a squadron leader can share crew members during an event, why not share at any other point.
  • I originaly read this as more of a trade, but I would agree with sharing one crew member for cadet missions.

    The only shared crew is faction.
    So I believe this is suggesting the sharing of crew for missions as well.
    Sharing for faction nonevent is pointless the way difficulty keeps going up as you are more successful.

    The idea of the OP was to share crew outside of an event for newbies to use in cadet challenges (for example a 2* Gaia Odo who almost nobody of the recent players has).

    I would however prefer to have a shared crew slot for shuttles outside of events, so players with not such a dense crew roster could benefit from an immortal 5* crew for any shuttle they wanna fly outside of an event.

    This would probably be easy for DB to implement.
    However, as difficulty ramps up the benefit is lost.
  • people would find a way to abuse this. if you level up quicker using someone elses crew you are taking away from the experience of the game... you already know how hard you worked to get where you are, if you lend your crew to others you are taking that away from them. (just my thoughts there) not that i dont like the idea, i just dont see it being beneficial in the long run.
