Snagged that and it looks really nice with the shield. Thanks.

Now I just gotta switch up my entire loadout to red beams.

Yeah I just did the same thing and dropped way too much EC on the Ba’ul vanity shield because space barbie is the real endgame :v:






totally worth it.

also the competitive rep engines match the time pod glow color perfectly, which is nice. the lukari deflector works really well with it too.

Yeah I'm logging in still but I'm usually listening to a podcast while I get the dailys done so I'm not chatting unless other people are. Might pick up with the summer event for a bit though.

I haven't played STO with the game sound on in years. :v:

Those are my two favorite glamour shots from the LP, though the second one is courtesy of a bugged lightmap on a Klingon-only map.

It's a rottweiler, comes from the lobi store. I haven't looked in forever, but I think it's one of those ones where you buy the box for 30 lobi, open it, and get a random box with one of the possible rottweilers. The wiki seems largely useless when it comes to the rottweiler pets, so I can't tell you which one that is because I don't personally own it. I have 'Rhylo' which is an adult but has no collar, 'Butler' which has a scarf instead of a collar, and 'Scruffers' which is a puppy.

They can be bought and sold on the exchange which avoids the randomness, but there's generally not a whole lot of demand for old lobi pets. This means the market is small and the prices can get weird. Note that there are also lobi house cats and beagles available if you like regular human pets.

wait, there's one with a SCARF?! why does no one tell me these things!

The only one I've got is the one in the picture, Porthos.

edit: wow, his scarf even matches my color scheme. oustanding.

It's under Promos in the C-Store, named "Klingon Empire Miracle Worker Bridge Officer and Elite Services Starter Pack", or something like it. You can only claim it on a klank or klank-aligned character. The extra slots will immediately apply to which ever character buys the pack.

Nah man no need to feel that way. The STO playerbase has been the most fun and easiest to gently caress around with. I've been gifting items to those who get upset at seeing the fleet name recently.

seriously the entire goon presence in this game has been centered around loving with pubbies since day 1. my favorite by far was back when abandon ship could be used any time or place so we went into ESD with the highest H.P. cruisers we had and repeatedly self destructed on all the tiny little baby ships causing a chain reaction of warp core breaches. the first time we did that I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe.

to this day you can still mention Starfleet Dental in zone chat and trigger a significant amount of rage. gone, but not forgotten.

At least once a year I'll be turning in contraband or checking the exchange or doing other daily alt BS in ESD or some other social zone and have some pubbie hate-message me.

ahh, brings a tear to my eye.

one of my other favorite old ways to abuse pubbies was the random faction on spawning into a borg hunt. nothing like blowing them out of the sky when they think you're on their side!

I'm not sure if you can still do it but I loved putting Cover Shields in front of Defera entrances so they couldn't get through. Also the Cover Shields for the races at Risa were an absolute blast.

Wasn't the laggy script put in because their original solution could be defeated by spamming the covershield button when you beamed down?

Yeah. The laggy script seemed to manually check every object in the instance every second and then despawn it if was a covershield. The beam in trick still worked but the shield vanished about a second later everytime.

yeah it's likely that what it's actually doing is checking for cover shields every frame and trying to delete them
