Loque’eque Sato- happy that sato got a 5* but can’t help but feel like archer got snubbed on another event. Her core dip is 7th overall. Her 2 core stats make her a poor mans Mudd.
Mutated Paris - hard to look at. Stats aren’t terrible.
Mirror Phlox- one of the best super rare in the game. Great episode. Strong core med, strong gauntlet and good for away missions. I have him but a great card if you don’t.
I don't pass on event 4*'s. Even though I don't care for the art and his stats are bland, sometime in the future he might help me get a better Paris. Even if its just a re-run of The Akritirian Job.
Despite her meh stats, I do want another Hoshi on my crew. I don’t think it’s going to happen, and I’m not going to be spending $50 for her (especially because of the meh stats).
Paris’s artwork is cool in a comedic value kind of way. If he had good stats, or even some kind of sci or eng at all, I would be more interested in him.
As it is, my immortal purples & FE golds are too high in dip primaries, unfortunately.
I just can’t justify it from a gameplay perspective.
Especially since he's main cast. Sure he'll go right in the freezer until the next Paris event, but that's what the freezer is for.
Agreed. I'm still participating, but the question was "how many do you want" which is 0. I'll take the Paris, even though I don't want him lol
New Hoshi sadly isn't worth the effort.
So 0.

Agreed Agreed.
Paris will come in use. I will get him 3/4 but since I’m not spending I won’t finish him.
Loque'eque Sato is a little better I think, at 1/5 she does have a fairly good score for away missions and a fairly decent voyage dip-sci pair. Marginally better for shuttles than 4/4 Mutie Paris too. No loss to do without though.
4 copies of Paris and 5 copies of Sato
*EDIT* I absolutely LOVE IT when I can take a week off of events. It doesn't happen often. Almost never. I wish it happened more often honestly. They can't all be diamonds, right?
For the Akritirian Job, there are only 3 characters better than him. All of which are FFFE 5* Kira's. Only one of those are DIP primary and that one is an Event crew.
For They Came From The Holodeck. there are only 3 characters better than him. Two are FFFE 5* Janeways with DIP primaries, one of which is an event crew. The other is a 4* Event Character.
For The Whole Truth, I was gonna get snarky because its a Galaxy event but as it turns out the only other DIP choice for this event is a FFFE 5* Event Character.
Paris is going to end up 3/4, since I'm not buying a pack this week, and I don't really care about him either way.
I'm very hopeful that I'll land a 1/5 Sato, mostly because I like the character as opposed to the (firmly mediocre) stats.
Any crew is likely to have some use on events its bonus in. I consider that to be an even more tenuous reason to gain him than my rating of 10th best voyage dip-med combination. For everyday use in the 1/5 world that I and most my fleet live in, 25th best shuttle dip, 41st best dip for away missions, 41st best voyage dip, 29th best gauntlet medic is just too weak to consider spending more than a little time and basic boosts on, let alone setting an alarm for. Stat creep usually means new crew has a top 10-15 place in at least one list to justify the space, like Sato's 5th place dip for away missions. But not this guy.
But anyone that cares enough to be able to focus that well to get a crew that is 4th best for 2 events that we have seen 5 times since the game started, of course he has some minor use. If you spent dil to get the 4th copy or want to spend 18k honor to stick him in the freezer the remaining 50 weeks of the year. I will stand by my estimation he has no real use worth getting him for. I suspect most players wouldn't notice his absence any more than they did the last times those events were run.
Then you'll really want him. You won't have the strong 5* crew that some people have and you'll want to capitalize on the best 4* crew you can reasonably get. This Paris isn't good but he'll give you a chance to get better crew in a repeat event or a future event. Saying he's the XXth best DIP character is meaningless. The game changes all the time. People flipped when Ambassador K'Lehyr was released. Best 4* DIP in the game they said! And where is she now? Not the best in general and far from the best in this event. Skill multipliers matter a lot.
Most 4* crew aren't all that good. Until they are. They can sit nicely in the vault until called upon to do their job.
This event I'm not taking too seriously. I left 3 bonus crew in the fridge. If Sato was better I would try harder. My best SEC character (KalSpock) I left inside as well as a good DIP and CMD character.
Edit. I can't find the thread. Awhile back some whale put up on example of a 4000 VP shuttle with every seat filled with crew with the highest stats possible. The chance of success wasn't all that great. And then he put up one with all event and bonus crew. The success chances were much higher. This is why its important to think in context of useful event crew. In this case its a main cast character with an unusual stat profile.
I'll take the Paris, but I neither like the character nor specific crew/skill set etc. ... I got a citation for him and he'll be frozen right after the event.
Not keen on Sato, because I have no need for a 2-skill 1/5 on my crew at the moment.
Good for me. I have Phlox 1/4 FE, and would love to get him FF. I am aiming for a 1001-2000 place finish, which would be my best for a faction event.
I don't want a top 1000 place, because I don't want another 1/5 taking up a crew slot, who I won't level for a long time.

The DIP and MED stats don't really make sense - the episode has Paris involved in helping develop a warp 10 shuttlecraft suggesting SCI and ENG would be key skills. In his mutated form he was neither Diplomatic or Medical (he was a patient if anything!)
