Logged in to play the new FE, entire tray messed up yet again… Bug report submitted.
Patched, logged in, Assimilated console and weapon batteries in inventory, tray 6 and 7 with nearly all slotted powers missing. Placed those back on my paper doll, reset my trays, checked doffs and saved my loadout in sector space. Transwarped to Delta, began the new FE. Beamed down for the initial ground portion, beamed back up and found my trays and paper doll messed up again… reset trays and paper doll so I could continue the story. Ran the next ground portion and resolved the mission.
I queued for a Mirror Universe Normal, forgot to check trays, everything was messed up again upon arrival. Luckily the briefing time was more than enough to reset. Completed MU without any further problems.
This has been reported time and again by several people. Can’t say I have any reason to log back in again as this issue is fairly game breaking. I bought a pack of ten loadouts when the system first came out, boy was that a waste.

And a small minority of players post to the forums, I imagine there would be a lot more bug reports submitted by a wide range of players.

I’m at work right now, if you’re still having trouble I’ll post my spacebar.txt when I get home this evening.

I ran into a similar problem once I got an Intel ship. I had to add another tray as well. I just copy/pasted the execute tray line, and changed the numbers on the second set. Save, then go in game and load spacebar.txt, then fixed trays.

I too bought my DR pack with farmed dilithium. I’m holding off on upgrading for a while (though my consoles have been upgraded). I’ll just buy Mk 14 fleet weapons when the come around, or hope they do an upgrade event.
My general tip to everyone with the DR pack: grind out T5 ship mastery of the Phantom. Reciprocity is a fantastic passive. The Scryer and the Eclipse look much better once you realize that all your tac abilities can be at global cooldown (as if you ran 2 copies) without the use of A2B. The Scryer is a little lacking, but if you think about it as having up to 6 tac boff abilities, it seems a little better.
More food for thought: Think that A2B+DEM+EPtW+Marion+FAW+APB is powerful? Add Safety Override 2 and Ionic Turbulance 2, along with Intel abilities and you’ve got yourself even more damage. The Guardian can’t do all this while the Eclipse can. Safety Override also helps with cannons – 160+ weapon power is very nice overcapping for DHCs.
The Phantom itself, is hands down the best escort Feds have available to them. Again with Reciprocity, that’s 7 (or 8) tac and Intel abilities on global. Run cannons and a BO3/TS3 with EPtX and A2D and you have a PvP/PvE elite queue ready hitter. Run a FAW beamscort (DEM Marion and such) and you have a perfect storm against mobs.

Eclipse: Meet the highest DPS T6 FAW cruiser Fed side. With a couple Intel powers slotted, and Reciprocity, this thing is brutal. She features a full suite of debuffs and even more weapon overcapping. Also, never underestimate the power of even a basic cloak.
*The big advantage with Reciprocity is the design space it opens up with doffs. So I ran: 2 Techs , APB heal SDO, WCE cleanse, Fab Eng, Marion.
Scryer: By the time I had hoped into the Scryer I had reached T3 Intel specialization. In that category I picked up getting flaking damage, and wow was that a great idea. So I fitted some DBBs with BO, lots of exotic particle spam, and appropriate doffs. Then I went into Beta Thoridor and unleashed hell.
Position on flank, decloak, hit with every ability. It didn’t seem that my Grav Well got flaking, but my TBR sure did. And if you think Ionic Turbulence is hilarious to hit NPCs with, add Grav Well and TBR and you have a space seizure rave dance party ball. Get a few ships with these abilities and you get a space blender of death.
*I ran 2 DCE, 2 Deflector, Aftershock, A2SIF Placate
Now on to the Dauntless.

I’m think about getting this ship i loved the Defiant with the active sensor arrays and optional intel setting it looks good. If i my ask how well does the heavy lance work and what is it cool down?
Honestly, I trash clicky power c-store consoles on sight. Now passive ability consoles, those are pure gold. Too much of a min/maxer I guess.
The Intel abilities are great, especially once I slotted the three in my space bar trays.

I grabbed a DR Pack and plan on running all of the ships across my toons eventually. I’m focused on getting my main to 60 at the moment. I’m using the Phantom to start for three reasons:
– I am an escort jockey at heart, I love speed and maneuverability. Even the Nebula I used in the Fleet Olympics could out maneuver some escorts lol.
– The Phantom’s layout was similar to my Mobius.
– Reciprocity has some interesting potential for building around. If there are no limits to the reduction, then this could be an A2B level passive with no drawback.When I get to tier 5 ship mastery and play around with the build, I’ll write a full review. As it stands, it’s a much improved Defiant. And it looks great in non-Intel skins.

Thanks for this, I finally sold mine.

I will probably pick up a couple cats, one for my main, the other for my Cataian. I have two orange boys, so I hope they have a couple types in that color.

I’m excited for more story content. I hope the weekdays will be good enough for me to get on, but I wouldn’t count on seeing me at night since I’m only silver. I’m only going to focus on leveling up my main. I’m still waiting on that revamped T6 Intrepid, pretty disappointed it’s either not happening or not going to be at launch. I guess my Temporal Destroyer will do lol, though I must say, that Huzari Destroyer looks pretty good. 2.6 million refined dilithium is really burning a hole in my pocket.
As for my alts, I’m hoping to pick up a couple older T5 Lockbox/Lobi ships as they may come down in price. Otherwise they’ll level purely through doffing. I picked up an XP doff, a couple xp bonus packs, and slotted some large xp projects in doffing, all for my main. Got to power level lol.
And I hope to see no one on the ground. Why have a First Officer at all if I’m forced to sully my uniform in the mud planetside? More pew pew in space. After all, revenge is a dish best served cold, it is very cold in space (and on Andoria).

I like that the Kazon Raider is a replacement for the Mirror ships, pretty solid layout and upgradable to T5-U (not T5-FU though). Benthan cruiser is solid but that Huzari ship… wow. Those ships are also T6 Fleet level (11 console), so those ships have an edge in PvP for the next few months. And that Positive Feedback Loop trait… a must for any FBP ship.

Dug out my mic, set up 44th TS, and joined the JF Inter Fleet channel. Not sure if there’s anything else I need to do for this, if so let me know. Now to actually play the game.

Han, good points, and it goes without saying that A: our fleet comes first, and B: we will never exclude our own fleetmembers for whatever reason. If this new multi-fleet gaming will have a Be Gold Or Bust elitist attitude then we’re out, period (and as it happens I’ve said so in channel).
Besides, the only elite we have has a Starfighter tag 😀I believe that T-5U ships (that is, upgraded current (fleet) ships) will be the best bet and not necessarily the new T-6 Intel ships. No idea regarding ground though. So you are not obligated to have the DR pack, or be lifetime subscriber.
The 44th fleet is here for our own fleet members first, whatever play style. Whether you’re gold or free2play, if you just enjoy PVE, be a PVP maniac or just want to hang around and Kancho unsuspecting NPCs.
The goal is to get a 5-player 44th team so we can have our own team in these 20-player furballs. Also, these 5 players would learn and in turn advise the rest of our own fleet on how to accomplish elite bonus objectives, best tactics, which kit to use etc.
A bit like we handled the Elite Borg STFs in the very beginnig – they used to be pretty hard with random drops and terrifyingly incompetent pugs. You know, the good old days 😀I’m still very sceptical about these hyped *must achieve* elite bonus objectives, and if they’re really worth out time. But I’m willing to take a serious look at it.
Fine line there though, clearly we wouldn’t want to bring inexperienced players into these private queues. However, I’d hate to see a “gold gear only” rule either. I’m hoping new elite is like old elite, once you know the tactics a team can win with sub-par gear.
Oh, and I’m not elite lol. Can’t say I’ve ever broken past 18k DPS, nor have I ever gotten the NWS acolade. I know several in this fleet who have me beat in most of the metrics that matter in PvE.
At this point, I’m just not sure what will be the best thing for new elite. A more focused damage PvP-type build (CRF, BO, A2D, high defense) or just more FAW melting. I wouldn’t be opposed to flying the Guardian on my main if FAW will still be best.
