This patch note says there will be a Phoenix Box event that will run from 7/18/18 – 7/25/18 – Just a FYI!!!
July 18, 2018 at 12:05 am #265310Plus the unique ‘back to the future’ hoverboard and some other titbits. Excelsior total revamp ? Plus a Wednesday patch instead of the regular Thursday one. Interesting.
Breen Chel Boalg warship and not the Plesh Tral (which has the better aux2bat trait) which I thought was next in line, pity.
Should have seen this coming with the surprise Keyring sale yesterday – a common tactic from Cryptic to force us to spend all our saved zen. I wouldn’t be surprised if after the phoenix event there will be another (ship?) sale, or even something like a surprise upgrade weekend to make us spend/buy more zen.
Mind you, I don’t really mind this – as a very generous free2play game Cryptic needs to make money somehow, and these promotions are certainly nice and can rapidly become expensive, but they are not a must to just continue to play the game as you currently do.

I agree. I’ve no objection to spending some cash on it occasionally. I’ve been waiting for another Phoenix event. I need the Red Matter Capacitor and the Crystalline Torpedo 🙂 And you never know, there’s always the chance at another ship if you’re lucky.

July 18, 2018 at 10:18 am #265343Still have that Epic Token waiting for the correct ship to inspire me….
July 18, 2018 at 11:13 am #265346I was really waiting for the Cold Hearted trait. Too bad.
What other things are worth getting there? I know the red battery device is good, Cochran’s shotgun too, anything else?- This reply was modified 6 years, 4 months ago by Briarned.
July 18, 2018 at 1:03 pm #265354July 18, 2018 at 1:27 pm #265356The UR and Epic odds are very low.
I have probably opened about 600-700 boxes over the last several events. I have gotten 3 UR and no Epic.
Not sure what to do with the URs since the rewards are all T5 ships – they just sit in the bank. I was thinking of the JH bug ship for the pet unlock, but I think the new JH pets maybe better now anyway.
The boxes are great for the just the upgrades. I get all of the Doffs, Red Matter Capacitor and admiralty card on all my alts. Also a couple nice items for anti-proton builds with the torpedo and console.
Still a great value. The chance to get a ship is just a bonus if you are lucky enough to get one.

July 25, 2018 at 7:16 am #267203Thanks for the link. If you claim it on Romulan character, you get two liberated borg bridge officers: Human/Klingon Eng and Romulan Eng boff. Haven’t done it, but it is verified it works.
July 25, 2018 at 2:24 pm #267214Thank you, that’s a very nice freebie. I paid money for that Borg in the past 🙂
Unfortunately you can’t have two of them.
