    @Shan: Can we get the stats for both Species 8472 Invader and Sarina Douglas?

    In around 4 hours from now Shan will provide them - like always.

    I know it's been said to death, but drone 7 included in this **tsk tsk**... anyone who's played even a small amount of time has her already from the daily logins.... just blah. Ruins the packs for me too
  • The art team's game is up again this week. Glad it's Happy Sarina and not Catatonic Sarina.

    They went all in on "catatonic" with Malik last week, so...

    Undead is technically awake....

    Glad for Sarina's appearance, but I think the romantic trait is wrong. Bashir was the one who got all romantic on her; she was actually freaked out by his advances. Oh well, guess they had to give her something...

    Someone who can really give those of us lucky enough to have Gangster Spock a run for our money.

    Great event except for the drone seven. I would be tempted to buy packs except that drone seven has low stats, is difficult to lvl up, and I already have her ff/fe. She was vaulted right after borg mega event and only comes out for seven events. So no packs for me, will save for an event with three new people.
    Let’s fly!

    I suppose it depends on who you have.

    For me, he fills the high SEC role, so he's competing with Gangster Spock. 8472 has a slightly lower SEC roll, higher SCI roll, and no ENG roll. 8472's traits are also significantly worse than GSpock. Yes, he'll have the occasional 25% where he might be preferable, but a lot less frequently than GSpock (who even hits 45% on occasion).

    Passable in gauntlet? For sure. I wouldn't mind running him every now and then if traits lined up. Assuming even traits, I would peg GSpock above 8472. In terms of a high SEC card, Mirror Shukar is the only other one in that neighborhood.

    All that said, it isn't worth it to me to join the bloodbath that is, surely, going to happen for those going after him.

    Edit: Another consideration is that he is very vulnerable to Locutus in DIP/SCI and DIP/SEC.

    Is it just me or is the multi-copy 5* reward threshold alot higher in this event? You need a top 15 finish to get more than 1 copy of 8472. Isnt it normally top 25? And isnt this contrary to what we need (ie a more balanced/even reward payout between getting top 1000 and top 15?)

    Unbelievably, I just opened seven A Quiet Coup 10X packs and the theme drop for all seven of the packs was Drone Seven of Nine, which I already had FF'd prior to today! Not a single Sarina or Species 8472. How is this possible?!

    Been top 15 for galaxies for a long time.
  • The second copy of Species 8472 is at 15 on the reward table. Thought it was usually at the top 25 (I could be remembering wrong). Just seems a strange change, if true.

    Glad to see Drone 7 as the ranked reward, meaning I can threshold-and-out yet again in a galaxy event, to leave with a ff Sarina. It's unfortunate that I'm choosing to forego Species 8472, but my assumption is that it will be a huge chron saving (and I can use the 4k+ chrons I've stockpiled to level up existing crew now).

    Pure galaxy is, normally, T15 I believe. The skirmish event, also, limited it to T15 I believe.

    RNG. 45% Drone 7. 45% ^ 7 = 0.37%

    So less than 1% chance, but not impossible. Given the number of people doing portal pulls, it probably happens to someone every event.

    Picked up a Sarina. 8472 looks powerful, and thats great.
  • YateballYateball ✭✭✭✭✭
    Everyone gets 4 Sarina's assuming they finish thresholds and I'm sure (most) people already have Seven immortal... even if they don't we get a free copy of her too. I get that 8472 has decent stats but I just cannot imagine risking pack pulls on these event packs

    Really bad luck is possible (sadly). I feel your pain as that is usually my trick
  • Thank you DB for listening and putting the new 4* back to been threshold :smiley: much appreciated!

    ...they've had the "New" character in Thresholds for about 2/3 of the events so far in 2018.
  • Sarina looks to be useful in Voyages ENG/SCI/MED + Civilian pops up a lot.

    The skill combo is ok, but the totals won't be near high enough to make a lot of voyages
  • @Shan

    A question if I may!

    With the advent of Skirmishes, could you also please post the Arena stats/abilities of new crew?
