Currently, there is no such thing as an advanced que. You can que for them, but when you load in all the mobs are 16 levels under you. Soooo, yah. If you need advanced marks I guess it is a great time to get them, but if you want to test your dps and builds, best wait. Also I have had multiple game crashes, still pinpointing the causes. happy patch day

Yeah crashes on Patch/New Season Day, that never happens 🙂
I couldn’t get into the game for a while, and when I did it kept crashing. Read about severe rubberbanding in zone-chat but didn’t had any. I may try logging in tomorrow again.
I expect that the next few days will be crashes and new bugs, with a quick patch on regular patch Thursday. Hopefully things will simmer down during the weekend and we can get down and dirty with the new mechanics.
"Boldly bashing Borg to bits since 2012..."I’m waiting until next week to do any real playing, myself. I did notice that all of my skills were intact and I had no respec token. No rubberbanding, no crashes, exchange worked fine, ect.
As expected, new patch already up.
I’ll have to do some more testing since it ‘feels’ (I can’t prove it) that not all Tribble mechanic fixes made it to holodeck, but I’ll have a build post up this weekend. Engineers got a serious, and I mean huge, power boost – Miracle Worker now adds secondary shields and if you use it with the miracle worker cd reduction trait it’s an amazing tank with serious (+150) power on all systems.
The word out there is that the new ‘meta’ for DPS-chasers will be the Nukara engine+deflector, with the Iconian (Amp) Warpcore and Shield, which is still considered best in the game. The Counter-Command Deflector with Romulan (reputation) Engine are two other good options. Replace the Embassy Sci consoles with Research Lab ones.
More to come.
"Boldly bashing Borg to bits since 2012..."Still good for Roms, depending on builds (I do well without and use a sci/torp hybrid with Energy Siphon). Engineers definately don’t need it. Basically there are ways around it now but there is no other console/trait/trick that adds that +30 power, and since ALL energy weapons including the first one (which it didn’t do previously) drain weapon power now, we’re all going to be hungry for more. Say it went from an A+ to a B+.
"Boldly bashing Borg to bits since 2012..."No it’s 0.75 per stack for 10x stacks, which is easily reached.
It was: +1 All Power Settings for 15 sec per activation for 15 secs
It is now: +0.75 all power levels to self per stack for 15 secs (Stacks up to 10 times)
So wpn/shld/eng/aux total 4x 7.5 = 30 power.
"Boldly bashing Borg to bits since 2012..."Ah, you’re talking total power. I thought you meant per subsystem. So I will not be using leech. Gone are the days of 24 per subsystem for a total of 96 power. 😢
Replace Embassy Sci consoles with Research Lab ones for EPG builds only, right? Because they can no longer boost All Damage as we had pre-patch. I’ll try slotting crth/crtd/dmg consoles from lobi/rep/ships.
will record a video of my builds in a few, and post. basically all of them have very similar skill trees, and are around 75k. dreadnoughts and carriers are at 75k, escort 75k, cruisers 70-74k. still using beams. might change escort to cannons if I can actually make some decent mod ones….
