So, when all is said and done, what is the advantage of raising your research level above 15?
It depends, if you need a Mk XII Omni beam for example, crafting at level 15 will have 0% chance for UR and 100% chance for VR. Same item at level 20 has 32% chance for UR, 68% chance for VR. Aegis engines at lvl.20 have 25% chance for UR, 75% for VR. These can’t be crafted at Mk II. Non-special items have a huge difference in % for a very rare item (lvl 15 vs lvl 20). So lets say you want to earn EC through crafting items, having school at lvl. 20 gives you advantage here.

Is it still true that getting your 23c TOS toon to all reps to 5 gives the ultra-rare rep kit?
If you created your TOS character between July 6, 2016 and August 24, 2016 during the temporal agent recruitment event.

I think we will get the Colony World tier 4 upgrade project at Delta Fleet soon so fleet marks will be needed there.

btw. official blog about Personal Endeavor was taken down. It will not go live with Victory of Life:

Yeah, a lot of doffs went to main fleet starbase, although Delta needs them more. Should we continue slotting the “Coordinate Colonization Efforts” project at main fleet starbase?

[Damix]

It seems they are missing the log in requirement. Most of them have the initial log in still active so system isn’t registering the second step, although they are posting as fleet member. Thanks for explaining.

Hey. There are no daily activities with Armada, it is just a group of fleets joined together for some mutual benefits. Design idea behind it was to help small fleets get help with fleet projects because all or most of them were stuck with holding progress due to high resource (dilithium) requirements. Armada gives them dilithium discount (if they take Gamma position), based on the overall level of armada fleets:

With this system they also tried to address the issue with lack of projects to donate to once fleets are completed so fleets can now in theory unload their excess fleet marks to armada fleets (in rare case they allow it because every fleet decides on their own what can be donated to them). So if you are in 44th Fleet (alpha position) – you will get 20% bonus experience points and 5% dil discount for fleet projects, in 44th Delta Fleet (beta position) – 10% and 10%.

Here is the official blog on this topic: >link<

Let us know if you have more questions. I see you got the main fleet invite already.

Edit: for those that want to buy fleet ship, only some fleet ships require tier 5 holding. Check this page to see which ships can be bought from lower tier holding (available in 44th Delta Fleet)

“Made a reply!” ribbon is also needed for at least 10 forum members that replied to their application post on (first page). Could be it needs to be added manually, but it would be great if it is possible to make it work automatically. Palcioz will know more. c:

Noiakk didn’t got the “Made a unique forum post!” and “Made a reply!” ribbon after making this post:

Carrier Builds

I think there is at least one more example, can’t search for it at the moment.

[Damix]

When someone replies to a post, do we need to manually assign the “Made a reply!” ribbon, or it can somehow be automatically assigned?

[Damix]

Invite sent. You can also contact us via our in-game fleet chat channel. Type in chat to join: /channel_join 44th-diplo

I think we should simplify it for now, and just ask members that have multiple alts to send at least one (that they don’t play) to Gamma (or more if they decide, voluntarily). When we see how many members moved to Gamma, and how much space in Main and Delta we have, we can decide to apply the rules you suggested in case we are not satisfied with numbers. I think that when we combine it with 23 (main) + 37 (delta) we can kick, we should have plenty of space for JH characters and new players.

About move-stop, reply to discord message:
I think new members want to join us for a reason, and we have space for them – we are very active, and people want to be part of that. I don’t think it should be our effort to grow the Armada. In the long run we need new members to have active fleet.

Also, I think new members shouldn’t join Gamma, they should continue joining Delta. Starting a fleet experience in low activity, tier 0 fleet isn’t the best environment for newcomers. I think Gamma should just be a storage fleet for now. Its a huge dil sink we shouldn’t bother advancing – having extra non-dil project opened for armada donations is nice bonus, but we should keep it at that. Just my opinion.
