15,000 Honor For a 2* ???

Comments

  • Every time something potentially fun and engaging is about to happen it gets destroyed by a Disruptor Beam...forget it

    That's exactly how I feel. I was all set to get a copy, and hey, now I've saved almost an entire 4* citation/behold or a third of a 5* citation/behold!

    Thanks DB!

    It's like two or three weeks of saved up honor from normal gameplay. I got him.

    Reminder to all of you, he isn't just 15,000. Add another 500 for the citation. So he's 15,500.

    Now, if he starts showing up in 10-pulls or Voyages I'm going to be hella pissed.

    EDIT: Sadly he's going right into the freezer when I immortalize him.

    I bought him. Maybe he's not worth the amount of honor just based on his stats or stars or whatever else, but I'm like *this close* to finishing 25/25 Doctors, so he's worth it to me.

    i bought him for the collection as well.it would be much more expensive to ff the 5 star docs.and since we got 750 honor in the mail message it actually costs 14750 not 15500

    The price of a 2* in the honour hall is four times that of a 1*. 5* are 6.67 times the price of a 2*

    This makes it difficult to chose a price point for potential 3* and 4* honour crew in the future.

    I'm not allowed to say "are you friggin kidding me?" Can I say "are you freaking kidding me"? A little sensitive don't ya think?

    I had to change my handle to "Angry Shimoda" instead of "D*unk Shimoda" because "D*unk" was judged as too offensive! [not kidding]...

    Yet it allows the word in my signature...

    That's especially weird when you take into account the fact that apparently every character in Star Trek enjoys copious amounts of Single Pot Whiskey.

    It's Single Pot Synthahol, it's cool.

    Come on he only costs 300 Uncommon crew dismissals.

    If when you spend merits you average 3 Uncommon crew, then he costs 72.5k merits.

    If you average 2 Uncommon crew per a regular x10 pull, he only costs 13.5Mil. credits.


    Assuming cost figured through an exponential curve a+b*2^^(crew type)= honor

    Crew type, zero for Common crew, one for Uncommon ..., and 4 for Legendary.

    DB charges 100000 for legendary and 3500 for Common.
    Then
    a+b=3500 common crew
    and a+b*2^^4=100000 Legendary crew
    then a=3500-b

    so 100000=(3500-b)+16*b
    96500=15b or 19300=3b or b=19300/3
    So a=( 3*3500 -19300)/3 or a=-8800/3

    Then calculating for Uncommon crew
    So -8800/3+(19300/3)*2^^1= (38600-8800)/3 =29800/3 or 9933.333 DB rounds this to 15000 makes sense🤓

    Basically DB should have charged either 9900 or 10000 honor. Being DB you would expect 10000.

    The rare (77200-8800)/3=68400/3=22800 honor for a rare crew
    The superrare (154400-8800)/3=145600/3=48533.333 for a superrare crew
    Check (308800-8800)/3=100000. Legendary crew cost.

    I love you.

    But all this glorious math still just proves that DB is overcharging.

  • why is everyone so up in arms about this???? if you don't want him, DON'T BUY HIM!!! it's not like he makes or breaks the game.. if i think a Honda is overpriced, or I simply dont like it. I DON'T BUY ONE. there are plenty of people that dont share my opinion, and so they buy it...will this really make any difference in any situation under any circumstance????? if he was taken away tomorrow, nothing would change... he is just another card for those who want to buy him
    ...thats it.

    The difference is that a lot of people would have wanted to buy him, and are possibly even still considering it, but now are disappointed that they won't be able to, or will have to wait longer.

    I was personally looking forward to a 2* EMH, so I am disappointed at the irrationally high price.

    DB created a "worthless" item that they want to be scarce and only for collectors. It's a collector game. Of course it's going to be expensive.

    Oof, too rich for my blood. Borderline exploitative. Seriously, he’s an expensive hood ornament, but priced at a level that suggests (incorrectly) he comes with some actual utility.

    So you're saying I should buy him and immediately airlock him (ideally on video)?

    Does anybody have EMH stats ?

    I would like to see them aswel! including his traits.

  • I am planning on freezing my weak CMO Crusher and putting this one live in the cadet mix. That science stat may come in handy. Kes is used in the female round any way, so it should work.

    Having said that, we all know that the honor system pricing is wack. At this point in time, I am not even really chasing five stars, because the only Viable way to do them is either mega freebie or P2W.
