Hey y'all with the current server performance I think I'm gonna postpone my stream for a few weeks. I'm super bummed out but it's pretty much impossible to do any demos right now, and that would cut out a huge bit of the educational value. I don't want to compromise quality.

@borticuscryptic.bsky.social It's worth noting that on advanced, Hellbore Light's performance is not broken, it's quite insignificant. It's the inflated shield health pools on Elite that does this.

@borticuscryptic.bsky.social So the first image is on a budget build, the second on a high end build. The issue rn is that 5% Drain on Elite is a BIG. NUMBER. The Ignition component is comparable to other high end traits like Complex Plasma Fires, Corrosive Impact, or Broadside Support.

New ISE Solo PR yo.

@borticuscryptic.bsky.social The Battle of Korfez is one of the coolest Elite TFOs y'all have, but there's a rough bug in it on the Turei phase that causes the entire Vaadwuar wave to spawn at once, making it nearly unclearable without aces. It's been around for ages. Any chance it might be fixed?

Fuuuuuuuck it's so hard to get back on the production cycle after being away and doing life and stuff. I'm working on something I promise.

@borticuscryptic.bsky.social I do believe some unfinished content has made its way into the game. Not sure if you've been made aware of this yet. It shows up in the Event Reclaim tab if you own the Pioneer II.

They also cannot crit

+All Damage sources like Attack Pattern Alpha, Tac Fleet, other misc All Damage sources

@borticuscryptic.bsky.social Scatterpacks and RIDGE are not scaling with appropriate damage buffs.

Sooooooo recovering from surgery means that I'm too slow to play well but awake enough to want to do things. So here's another goddamned article.

y'all pissed me off enough to write something while I'm still recovering, good work.

Everyone seems to forget that it was Sci Carriers that dominated solo elites until the magless Krait... which also meant they were just elite monsters in general. The no SecDef=Bad meme is years out of date and an artifact of just how slow knowledge permeates this community.

Hey kids. I've had my surgery. Been recovering for a few hours. Everything's ok, I'm fine, went well. I'll be laid up hard for about a week.

Main projects are things like builds that push the bleeding edge meta, free to play proof of concepts, testing newly released content, stuff like that.

I'm sitting on mine. Anything I'd get would be for a side project of a side project and I'd rather wait and see what I could use it on. Plan on getting the Anni bundle in its entirety but maybe it doesn't end up looking attractive as a whole package? I play smart.

No such thing as a lost cause ^_^

Good thing piloting seminars are on my content list then :3

Greetings, captains and lurking entities of the deepspace! I'm Counselor Sunna, Star Trek Online's new Community Manager! Here you will find me re-watching Star Trek shows, talking about how often I run my ship into things, see some polls, and maybe a few pictures of my cat- I mean Tribble. Welcome!

For those of you unaware, for the past few months I've been serving as a Starship Artist on the Star Trek Online team. You can look forward to my current pride and joy, the Garrett Command Alliance Dreadnought Cruiser, soon!

*sigh* It's good. It's desirable. It could survive a downtune - but the problem right now is that the droprates for it in the box are a b y s m a l which means that a desirable thing has insane demand and no supply. It's not as good as everyone thinks it is. It's just super noticeable cuz market.
