Finally! 250 Immortalized crew

Captain Nelson

WOO-HOO! I finally hit the hallowed threshold mark of 250 Immortalized crew members just a few moments ago. After receiving the pair of Off-Duty Tilly as part of the rewards and fusing them, I was able to level the character to 100 as I had plenty of equipment on hand to do so. I knew I was getting close to the 250 mark as ever since last weekend I had immortalized Surak, Pah Wraith Dukat, Alan-A-Dale, Dahar Master Kor, Undercover O'Brien, Goran'Agar and a few other Super Rare characters I can't remember at this time. But I checked the Achievements tab after immortalizing Tilly and was very pleased to see that I'd did it. Well - onto 275 now, I guess....

Matt_Decker

Well done, sir! Well done. I'm closing in on 200 myself.

Captain Nelson

Thanks Matt! I found that once I got past the 175 mark that I seemed to be immortalizing 3 to 4 crew each week on average. I wish you luck!

Gratz!

Lil tip for those who don't know... If you're 2 or 3 away from the Dilithium reward and you really want to get there fast, grab a few of those useless 1* crew from your Voyages, merit rewards, or portal, and immortalize them a second time.

You won't have any new characters in cryo, but you'll be one step closer to that sweet dilithium.

Hit that point myself yesterday, Riley Frazer had her last bit of equipment provided and then went for a nice relaxing break at Q's Intergalactic Ice Spa, where she'll remain until she's an event character again.

Need to dig up my next set of characters with collection attributes and onwards to the next 25!

Commander Sinclair

Good job! I made my Phoenix Cochran my 250th last week. Off Duty Tilly just became 258.

I hit 200 last weekend with Smoking Jacket Worf, Commander Sela and Bard La Forge being 199,200,201 almost simultaneously. I understand your feeling, I never, ever thought I would get to this point, but 3-4 a week is common now. I think it's slowing a bit as I've few blues to fffe anymore... did you have that experience on the way to 250?

I reached 246 and had 55k honors for three of the super-rares but all I have three starred and fe-ed can drop from the voyages. I had to convert 8-9 of last 12 four stars dropping from voyages to honors. So I used 50k honors on Admiral Patricia first fe-ed her instead. Tilley off duty becomes 248.

Not bad idea to fffe single stars

This deserves a golf clap, - "Very quiet golf clap".

Now remember if you get a hole in one, you have to buy everyone on the DB forum a drink.

I agree, I have probably 2 dozen 4/4* waiting to FE, but those last pesky Gold items for the SRs takes billions and billions of chrons (so it seems!)

Flemming

234 here. I wasn't paying attention that I was closing in on 250 myself. Thanks for the reminder!
But you are right, seems like 3-4 new Immortals a week is the pace.

Captain Nelson

Thanks for chiming in here everyone. I appreciate all the well wishes and also wish the same good fortune for each of you.

In regards to your question Roland, as I remember it I experienced a slowdown shortly after reaching the 225 mark - and directly tying into what Commander Sinclair noted - I had a dickens of a time retrieving the equipment necessary to complete those "last pesky Gold items for the Super Rares". They just wouldn't seem to drop or I wouldn't get nearly enough of the equipment items needed. Then during the past 3 weeks I've suddenly hit upon a string of good luck and was able to FE most of those I'd been hoping to.

***I gotta say that I absolutely love & thoroughly approve of the renaming of Duchamps to Smoking Jacket Worf - it sounds much better!***

>>>UPDATE (4:45 PM CDT) - I just bought a Gunslinger Portal Pack and received both Sheriff Worf AND Smoking Jacket Worf. Now i can FF Smoking Jacket Worf and get Sheriff Worf to 3/4. How's that for good karma?!?! Lucky me! <<<

Just crossed 225 myself. They do seem to come in waves as I get stuck as well. After I get Killy FE I can go back to finishing the last couple of DS9 & Augments I have in preparation for the next Mega. Working on all those Worfs and DS9 mirrors has really helped with this week's event. Can't wait to get to 250 myself.

Hungry Dog DDM

I'm at 247. If the packs go my way then I'll have 250 by the end of this event, If they don't then I'll have 249. But I have enough honor for a citation and plenty of 3/4 characters I could make cryo eligible.

Capt Ajamm

I stopped counting after the last achievement @350. They really need to increase it.

[FF] Frylock IBOL17

I'm around 258 now with Kes, it slowed way down once i finished 99% of the 1/2/3* characters... still chugging along though

Bigstupidgrin

Congrats! I'm 9 away, running out of 1 and 2 stars to pad out my total. Helps to have 8-10 crew slots for storing rare crew in various states of fusing.

Thanks for the response. It definitely feels like fffe is streaky, some weeks I freeze 5,and others I have a bunch of tricky SRs at 3/4 lvl 90 who will never get immortalized. Hearing from Captains who have pushed on is heartening. LLAP

Run of luck with honors ( thousand honor voyage 5 rares in 7 hours) and shuttles saw that I managed to immortalize new Kes that made it 249. I saw the Wild West pack and it needed 650 dL and I needed 650 dL so I used merits to put 4 th star on cardassian Kira which made it 250 and 750 dL came with it. so I used that to open the Wild West pack and got my 4th star on sherriff worf. Making it 251.

After 225 I was letting the game play dictate and somehow reached 246 immortalized without thinking about it. Now thanks to this thread inspiring me and noting the Wild West pack options I have jumped from 246 immortalized to 251 in 3 days.

And am back to 3000 honors in this one day. And used extra dL to get more Saturday credits.

Thanks for giving jump start.

Well, the packs didn't go my way. But I noticed I had a bit of daily merits saved up, so I started pulling from those. On my 4th set I picked up a human q. Got to put him away in the freezer and that put me at 250.

Congratulations, Captain Nelson. An excellent achievement. Keep up the good work.

Roland 359

Postscript: I just hit my 250 with Dinner Jacket Picard. Amazing. I never thought I would hit that milestone. But after about 100, they come pretty regularly. Cheers, Captains!

Commander Sinclair

so, just 2 months since my last post at hitting 250, I just hit 300...301...305...308, all thanks to Skirmishes giving us all the bonuses! To paraphrase @Roland 359, they are just a regular occurrence anymore. Averaging about 5-6 per week now, but there are spurts and lulls when doing it.

This achievement also makes you realize "the end is looming", as I only have 38 more that need equipment and *s to immortalise them, and I am only missing 8 now from the entire collection.

Roland 359

Awesome, congrats and we'll done Commander! I'm in awe. This event saw me get lots of crew to FE, but still awaiting stars. After every milestone, 100,200,250,I keep wondering where my next immortals will come from. That problem keeps solving itself🙂. 251 should be Weyoun 4,if I can keep a decent rank.

Captain May I.

Skirmish works great for leveling, went from 262 to 275 in the past 4 days! Then again I’m cranking through the rest of the 3* which is fairly easy.

Captain Nelson

Well, I've now immortalized my 275th crew member - which was Niners Rom. It took over a little under 2 1/2 months from the point that I immortalized 250. I've now got five 4* characters at level 100 and need some pesky, hard-to-get items to fully equip them. I'm concentrating on doing missions for those factions where the items will drop....just wish they would finally!

kapu

^^i would just replicate them.... basic ancient films, 3 star champagne, etno botanicals... the list goes on...



Anyways I'd like it if they added moar stages after 350 immortals... wink wink
