Borg invasion can be pretty easy if you stick close to the Unimatrix at one of the end points. Those plasma bolts hurt the command ship quite badly if they hit you and you are at 0 km to the Unimatrix. Doing it this way my record so far is 1:30 mins for the destruction.

So your Saying, Stick close so the plasma bolts hit me and their own ship?

I always have 4 ships taking out the probes, while the heavy cruisers just lay into the ship with pedo's and phasers...


if I can, im gonna keep Dual beams in my inventory, destroy the cubes and stuff, break off as the unimatrix spawns, and swap out my fore phasers for the dual beams, since the unimatrix dont move, its easy to keep nose on target.

Full Jem'Hadar set makes my Odyseyy Class more fun to use, less aggravation.

Increases Turn Rate, Adds Power to weapons...

i only got one ability though, i didnt get teh "dominion synergy" or the "victory is life" skills.. (Hrmm).

I also have the Full Breen set in my Intrepid (right now im using my older ships to stock pile consoles and crap, instead of wasting my bank space and inventory,

i deleted/dropped all the cardassian lock boxes, and i ignore them when they spawn.

i deleted 90% of the elements in my bank (my entire back was elements, as I was literally going after everything to get whatever.)

I think i stored all my Decent Shields that i couldnt stick onto my ships into the bank.

most of the weapons and consoles i get more money from teh replicator now.

For Stock Mk X+ Engines, the rep. gives me 20K+, before it was ZERO. I think i made a mil EC just cleaning out my inventory.

The lock boxes are getting very annoying. I don't see myself buying the keys, much less as many keys as I collect boxes.

that and im tired of trying to play and have:

"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX WAS AWARDED A GALOR-CLASS CARDASSIAN CRUISER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

repeatedly scroll across the middle of my screen.


Also forgot to mention, for completing the 2800 we got some Shroud Ability, which brings in 2 alternate dimension versions of your player. I'm finding this VERY useful.

But if you dont complete the 2800 before the 19th You dont get it.

I still haven't been able to place my finger on the exact reason(s) why MMO's don't appeal to me. I mean, I like Star Trek, I like Star Wars but I have zero interest in either of their current MMOs.

The Jem'Hadar shields are currently seriously bugged and cryptic seems to be on the lazy side to fix it. Basicly with a little bug/exploit the shield becomes nearly invincible. Downside of the whole thing, which makes it very annoying, is it lags the whole zone. PvP has basicly become impossible to do since you have god mode like players and huge lag. Sometimes i even notice it in STFs as well if someone has the shields on, but it is not that bad.

I may go back to the shields i had, which has both Higher over strength and A lot faster Regen.

I hate MMO`s to, but STO is for free. Just make an account, wait endless minutes (at least if you have small broadband connection like me frown ) downloading the installer, wait another minutes patching and then enjoy a really nice ST universe. There´s nothing you will lose aside from time playing it.
@all: Keep the pics coming. Skatezille, great screens of the transwarp tunnel and so on. Oh man, I look forward to add some new tech to my ship.
