    August? I'm predicting Mid July; because these same voices will exhaust their new five slots in the next few days.

    And aside: now I'm swimming in with too many crew slots.
    Here I was, balancing immortalizing and freezing characters to make room for new ones I wanted.
    So easy to remove extra unwanted crew at the bottom of the list, cause they were darkened out and easy to eject.
    Now that pesky Wesley gets onto my crew with a slew of other voyage rewards, without protest and I have to find him and space him!

    Look what you did, people. LOOK AT IT!

    It’s definitely like, “Should I use these 10x Premium pulls now....? How about now? And now?”

    Awesome stuff, thanks DB. I'm sure they will be chock full by the end of the mega, but hey. That was a bit of breathing space for sure. I've got room to finish my rares instead of just working on one at a time.

    Now I’m wondering if I can immortalize another 16 crew by next Tuesday to get some more dilithium.

    Wow, thanks to the chroniton drops in this Skirmish event, and being able to simultaneously farm Intel and level some Common crew, this might actually happen....!!!

    I'm down from needing 16 to 7 crew left until 225 immortalized, which would translate to another 5 slots at least with this slot sale.

    I didn't because I am at the point where even at half price they are too expensive for me but with the 5 free ones and being able to immortalize and freeze a bunch of guys during this event, it brought me to 19 open slots (of course, I would be willing to accept more free ones :open_mouth:

    I plan to, if I can get enough of my almost-finished crew immortalised to claim some dil. But kinda tapped out after spending too much on this game recently, so I won't be buying any dil for it. Slightly bad timing for me, I guess.

    (Ironically, last time a dil offer popped on a Monday for me, I bought it and thought, "I'll just hold on to this until a crew slot sale comes around..." Ha! Me, holding on to dil? What was I thinking?)

    I too have brought so much on this game it isn't even funny no more. Tried to hard to amass plenty of Chronitons. I also like having plenty of chronitons, especially for those cost-effective missions to upgrade the crew.

    I did. I’m now at the max of 425

    I did. I'm going on three months, so I'm relatively new. It only took $5 to get enough for 10 slots. It seems like the sale was designed for new players and big spenders.

    I did. I do buy offers from time to time. But since buying packs for dil is never discounted, I do not buy packs for dil. So it goes to voyages or Thursday cadet challenge(300 dil. I have leveled all crew do not need any extra cadet challenges on the others)

    Therefore, I had a lot of dil. and only one use for it that is crew slots.
    I took 250 to 300 (5 was free) my main account .

    I also am in similar position on my 2nd account. That one I took 245 to 270 (5 was free) not as much dil. on hand.

    Since I leveled my crew I only do 5000 credit spin on DABO.

    I definitely did. I only had 80 slots before the sale, so my next tier would have cost 700, but thanks to the half off sale I was able to only spend 350 and 525 respectively for two more tiers, for an additional 15 slots total.

    Naturally, they're all gone now...

    Just managed to immortalize my 225th crew and get enough achievement dilithium for one more tier purchase of five slots at the 875 (1750) price before the 50% off crew slot sale ends at noon EST today.

    So in total that's 20 new slots = 5 free slots + 15 slots purchased with dilithium 50% off. Bringing my total slots to 100.

    A quick rundown of use of the new space:

    - (1) Collected my 3-fusion Tieran Possed Kes from the previous event
    - (3) I unfroze 3 rare crew (Saavik, Sniper Ezri, Maquis Torres) to be able to start doing weekend cadet challenges again.
    - (1) Unfroze Young Khan for the Skirmish/Mega-Event
    - (9) Picked up 9 (NINE!) new super-rare crew, only one copy each, while searching for common and uncommon crew to immortalize to hit the 225 immortalization achievement.
    - (2) Collected 2 fully-fused rank rewards (Command Khan, Roga Danar) from Mega-event week 1 Skirmish event.
    - (1) Random common crew (Ogawa) to level for next achievement point.

    17 total. Leaving me with 3 crew slots to spare. Presumably I'll be able to re-freeze Khan after the mega, along with the 2 new augments, as well as Ogawa as soon as she's FE, so that's 4 more potential spaces. We'll see how the rest of the mega-event fills them up. Pretty sure I'm going to end up with partially-fused Bell Riots Dax, Malik and Soong.

    It'd be nice if we could look forward to a QUARTERLY 5 free slots/50%-off crew slot sale with each Mega-event - it makes the event MUCH more enjoyable without the slot anxiety - but from what we've seen to this point, it looks like DB's making slot relief a bi-annual event.

    That said, kudos again to DB for this Skirmish event and the timing of THIS slot giveaway and sale - it really afforded Captains the chance to level up crew while also remaining competitive.

  • I passed this time around. 235 slots seems to be my comfort zone for now.

    I will revisit this limit around Black Friday time though if they can couple it with reasonable dilithium sales.

    Not quite. Since I've frozen just about everyone I got since I bought more. But soon. I find it strange that my starship only has enough room for 150 crew, and that I have to pay to get someone back.

    I’ve got more open slots now than at any point in months, without a purchase in that time if not longer. Including the event crew I'm chucking back into the freezer on Monday (Jake, Mirror Uhura, Claiborne Chekov, and Commander Uhura for sure), I have 178/200 slots filled. It was mid- to upper-180s at the beginning of the month.

    Diligent leveling of event crew (plus that last legendary citation offer) and near-merciless use of the freezer have made this possible. I could probably toss one or two others into the freezer as well, come to think of it...
  • AldudeAldude ✭✭✭✭✭
    Yeah... I have 90 slots as a vip0...
    I am at the stage of " ooh, purple crew... which I don't own.... airlock!"

    I have a whole bunch of purples to star up before i can get more. I am not too far off airlocking a gold purely for space reasons

    yep, im currently trying to hold on to the main cast crew in hopes of getting more copies and eventually FF and freeze them, any one-of purples get airlocked immediately and low statted legendaries even the ones i've had FE for a long time are coming under the pressure because of the power creep. (I somehow end up getting new golds from the events on regular basis lol)

    105 slots, 273 immortalized, 350+ on the achievement. 27 1/5 fe, 11 at higher fuse levels, and then 3 uncommon and rare crews for the cadet challenges, all the rest are SR crew at different fuse states of which currently only 6 are ff mostly event crew that I swapped from the vault after the previous event..

    But I manage.

  • Didn’t buy any slots this time around but did the previous. At 235 slots and does me well, currently at 211/235. Nearly all 4* crew are FF/FE and I use the Vault at will. I like the extra space to flex for Megas with lots of bonus crew, like all Klingons, etc. I’ve kept all Disc crew in the main roster because I’m sure another Mega with them will be coming, so I could put a ton more in the Vault if needed.

    Personally I think it’s absurd to monetize crew slots and this is the only game I’ve played that does that, but I’m at the point where I don’t think space will affect me much for a long time.
