News update

News update:

The fleet of the Week is SRS Imperial Starfleet

Bonuses of the week are:

Any ship

Any career

Bonus to Healing and Threat

Update on Ground PvP rules:

For ground PvP for the teams event we have decided to let anyone use the gambling device as the buff is on for so long once gained it can delay the start of the match if we wait for it to expire. You can get the gambling device off the exchange and it's well worth it.

Ketracel White is not allowed for Jem Hadars

Shield charges and Hypos are allowed

Paradox corrector is allowed but not recommended as you will probably get killed immediately on using it

Update on the Agoniser Redistribution Console

This console has been updated this week but is still giving enormous damage off of large targets such as elite tactical cubes, transformers etc. 200-400K DPS and hits up to around 10 million have been logged. As such this console should not be used on SRS DPS league events for the time being. Borticus is aware that the console is still giving ludicrously high numbers and will no doubt be tweaking it again. We expect the official DPS leagues to be wiped once it is updated. SRS DPS leagues can be wiped but I don't want to do that, a lot of people have worked hard to get great results and it would be a shame for them to all be lost. So, if you do use this console on a DPS league run and it records insanely high DPS and single hits your score will be adjusted in the following way:

The DPS from the console will be subtracted from your overall DPS

The max hit from the console will be replaced with your next highest max hit.

Note: This console can only be acquired from the Adamant Terran Defiant ship.

Once we know what Cryptic's intentions are with this console we can make a further judgement. If they don't intend to nerf it and think that this is an acceptable amount of damage for one console then we will allow it and it will become meta BIS for ISE and HSE. In the meantime please follow the rules laid out above.

Parasitic Ice

This ability is still broken and will knock tac cubes to the bottom of the map, please avoid using it in team events. Teams Update

Teams are still neck and neck and this is turning into a closely fought competition. We have had a few rough spots and we have learnt a lot running this event for the first time. I have made an adjustment to the team score announcement in chat so it now also gives the running totals after each event.

An additional Prize for Teams

An additional prize will be issued to the player from either team who has run the most missions during the event, this prize is a Suliban Helix lockbox ship and 100 million EC. Team captains are not eligible for this prize.
