    So, this doff just joined my crew. What a boob. Likes to keep abreast of things though.

    Also, there's a horror minisode?

    Yep, "Hearts and Minds" I wanna say is the name of it? You get a purple doff out of it, and a lirpa that's really not overly useful. Not a bad little episode, would be nice if they worked in more things like that on occasion, rather than doing the GIANT Upgrade or Dead Air approach...

    Well, the lirpa is pretty cool for telepathic characters I think. It has a psi buff.

    Kinda the inherent flaw in most of the weapons you get at endgame, though. By the time you get them, you don't need them anymore. Lirpa would be useful for telepathic characters, but aside from a couple quick battles with Remans in the Romulan arc, do you ever actually run across any? Enough to justify even placing it on a character vice burying it in the bank?

    Like the STF weapons. They're pretty good, and set-wise, probably the best. By the time you earn them, though, you had to grind STFs for a long time, and you're doing just fine. Now you earn the weapons, and at the same time, don't need to grind STFs anymore...

    Isn't this the very first friday the 13th since Legacy of Romulus launched? So pretty much all romulan characters would need to do Hearts and Minds

    The doff is really quite good for its type. That alone is good reason to do the mission. Which I am reminded I need to do.

    That mission was the fastest one ever. :rommie:

    Creepy, but not overly horrific. Somehow I expected Borg to be involved.

    yeah, really felt like it needed more immersion. It's really quick, so any way to get a doff easy...

    Yikes, all that lag in EE last night.

    Isn't there a good place for klingon players to farm drops besides the foundry and Kerrat? I always hear about it on the forums and such, but never remember which place it is.

    There is that KDF only map mirroring Kerrat for KvK pvp. Supposedly there is hardly anybody there.

    So, where the heck do Diplomacy points go when you are a KDF aligned Romulan? :confused:

    Don't disintegrate me, but is there a place in the fleet for Captain Spring of the USS Balliol College?

    It's Spring@robatorai . Thank-you very much. Do I have to be in-game to accept?

    Klingon allied Romulans get marauder instead of diplomacy which is part of the reason I redid my Romulan as KDF allied since thats a contraband mine which is good for getting dilithium.

    Oh yes, I'm completely aware of that. The screen shot is from my KDF aligned Romulan, Vetorix. But look at the highlighted, already completed doff mission: It awarded diplomacy! I've been seeing diplomacy missions a lot on my KDF Rom over the last week, and they seem to show up mostly in the military section. I'm guessing it's a bug that crept in with a recent patch.
