    I got through 2 pages, and couldn't stomach the rest to see if this has been asked.

    @Shan With the event ending on Wednesday... is the plan to have the event after that start on Thursday ( 24 hours later ). And, if so... will the next packs go up Wednesday at noon, just as the previous event ends?

    I've been asking for shorter events since the day I started playing. This is ridiculous. 7 frikken days?!!!

    I would also like to know if the following event will be a typical 96 hour event, of if it might be time to throw a bone to the "give us a short event" crowd. That would seem a reasonable compromise to me.

    The only longer event type I could conceivably want is Faction. Definitely not Galaxy or Skirmish, because extending those just becomes a ploy to get people to burn/buy more chonitons. And Expedition is just an unenjoyable grind even when short.

    I’d have no problem with a month long skirmish event as long as they didn’t change anything except getting rid of the long animations

    A month long skirmish would be a nightmare. Essentially skirmishes are like expedition arena battles. All the tens of thousands of clicks you would need to do for a month event would be hellacious.

    A month long skirimish where I was competing for rank would be AWFUL. A month long skirmish where I ignored the rank and played on occasion for free chrons/honor, sure. And that month long event would really expose how much DB needs to redo threshold rewards. Clear all thresholds the first day, then spend the next 29 days grinding for the sake of a 1/5.

    Right? I made like 20k! Next skirmish I’m loading up on dilithium and doing the extras every time

    My 15k were without single dil though... was still in top1000 after 3 days of casualing it, lol!

    I did some extras but since it was brand new I took a check it out approach first. Now that I know, I will be prepared next time. I finished 133 with no interest in the event crew. As the Klingons would say, it was all for honor.

    WIth how much you play you could really start a fleet of one just to use all the resources you farm...

    My entire crew is fully equipped. The only missions I run daily are the cadet challenges. Other than that it’s just leveling any event crew I get which requires very little missions. I always have most of the components I need

    Plus I want to win an event fleetless. I don’t know if thats ever been done before

    Cool. Once you get there, though the proficiency and skill helps from a starbase might be helpful. Slow being solo, but its a use for all those components you've farmed.

    Fleetless has won an event before, more than once. Players have gone fleetless at the end of an event to 'shop' themselves to mega fleets back in the earlier days.

    Not the same as you being fleetless the entire time, but still.

    @Banjo1012 you should join our fleet. We have the notorious @RikerWasNumber1
  • Oh, man, I cannot *wait* to see what an Augment O'Brien looks like, heh. (I'd *doubly* love to see Augment Keiko.)

    I know plenty of people have been kvetching about not getting Mirror Leeta during the Mirror event, and she makes 2/3 DS9 folks for the finale, so yay. :D

    And another opportunity for Ice Pirates Riker! I'm a happy camper.

    Ice Pirates Riker is the coolest and most obscure nickname for a card I've seen yet. I love it!
