Ah...... I only got to hear about the last 5 minutes of the broadcast that weekend. So my apologies on not catching up on what i had missed. At least now there is a visual of the changes that the Dev Team had mentioned about, plus a clearer outline of what changes.

I do agree on the secondary deflector changes that they have made, it gives the science toon and ships a greater understanding of what each of the three kinds of secondary deflectors types once equipped to the applicable science ships that holds them.

Plus the changes to the icon does improve the look of the game with all of the recent updates and changes to the game itself. (R&D, Specialization, Tier 6 Ships, etc)

Anyways enjoy the read everyone.

We touched on this during the livestream at weekend. Finally science is getting the secondary deflectors as for the best who knows what it will bring. I mean the Intel specialisation alone has had major impacts. Adding a new one in so soon is unexpected.

Hey everyone,

I hope everyone has recovered well from the NYE events and are excited about the new content that the DEV Team at STO have done recently which have been mention just last week.

I'm very excited to see what they have in store for us with these New Systems that they have introduced onto the Tribble Server just recently.

• Bridge Officer Interface
• Specialization for Captain and Bridge Officer: Command Officer
• Bridge Officer Training Revamp
• New Research and Development School: Officer Training
• Changes to the Romulan Mystery Arc
• Changes to the Secondary Deflector
• New Bridge Officer Icons

• Information regarding the Patch Note for Tribble can be located from this link
• Changes to what the Bridge Officer Ability Icons look like, can be viewed and read from this link

Please remember, the New System (Captain Specialization, Bridge Officer Specialization, Bridge Officer Training and R&D School) are subject to change at anytime new information has been released or updated.

See you all in space.

i was about to watch but my PC started freezing :(

not sure what's going wrong with it, grrs :pinch:

Thanks to all that attend the Livestream, we had a max of 24 people, 2 short of our record. If you missed it and want to watch it live, it is available now on YouTube at

Another thank you! I'm working on a build suggested by Aikune now. A great service to provide, much appreciated! :)

Thank you for creating this department. I just submitted my first starship for review. It's nice to get someone much wiser than myself to check it out.

Not entirely true - they are nerfed, but they can be powerful if set right. This is clearly dependent on the abilities associated with the build. It also depends on what you actually want to do. Why do u want a turret build? What ship are you flying? The ship itself can be the decider with said load out.

Also Elachi weaps are pretty kick ass. It could work, but the damage wouldn't be as great - although not non-existent.

For anyone considering this, do it, major improvment in my Aelaehl.

Thanks Aikune.

I definitely need (A LOT) more dilithium

Therein lies my only complaint.

Not nescesarily, I know what my Toons can train and I know what abilities I need to hunt for. the big question for me is the premium abilities like Torp Spread, Scatter Volley and Beam Overload 3, Photonic Officer 3, and others like that that you have to go scour the exchange or run facility 4028 over and over again.

Especially for boffs that you cant trade, like the delta ops packs and others.

is there anything this guy skant do?

Yep, I do keep copies and can make minor alterations such as a change in rank, etc

Just out of curiosity Voleron, Do you keep copies of your work? and after you have made them are you able to modify them if someone was to ask for some minor changes? such as font change or text change?

And with these changes, it sounds like that there would a change in icons as well just going by what the photos have shown so cause i have noticed a couple of icons i havent seen before.

But all i can say, ABOUT TIME!

I definitely need (A LOT) more dilithium

Thank you for offering this service!

It would be cool if you´ll check the form I´ve sent to you. :woohoo:

And of course I forgot to mention the doffs I´m currently working with, lol:

- Shield Distribution Officer (chance to partially regenerate shields when take damage after using brace for impact)

- Dicrok

- Zemok

- 2 Technicians (recharge time of boff abilities reduced)

There will be more T6-ships in the future - which means more ship traits. But the Scimitar is the ship I want to fly. She´s beautiful, isn´t she?

Please take your time - I have no idea how many forms you have to deal with - it´s not an urgent thing. I just wanted to know if I´m on the right track with this build.

Greetings, Andrea :)


P.S.: the missing personal space trait is Exotic Absorption

So many toons, so many Boffs. Looks like a headache for us alt-oholics. Seems like the smart move is to wait until this is launched before starting any new toons, learn how to do it from scratch on a toon, then apply it to the others. I do like, however, the increased customisation. Just not the work involved.
