Nope 500. (And if it were 400 that would be 50 months or 4 years 2 months ;)) - But yeah, the LT stipend is 500 a month (Been LTS since the first open beta in 2009 myself - technically they're now paying me to play ;).

Same, though I didn't play until the January 2010 beta.
First thing I tried to do was fly to DS9, but they had that sector block closed off for the first week.

Actually (assuming a 500 Zen a month LT stipend) it's 40 months or 3 years and 4 months. ;)

Is it 500 a month, where did i get 400 from, and in fact you could actually be right about it being 4 years worth as i moved home 3 years ago this month and before that i had not really touched the game, and since the move apart from logging in now and again i had not really touched the game at all, just goes to show you how quickly time flies. lol

Just as i am thinking of it when it was a sub model with Atari were they not giving you 400 stipend a month with the monthly sub, i am sure 400 stipend came into this game somewhere. lol

Well huh. I could have sworn it used to be 400 zen a month.

Yes, i am sure at some point in this game 400 zen a month was a thing, i am sure i remember that. lol

Starting with Delta Rising, all NPC groups have some unique ability which you will need to counter. Here are just a few examples.

For the Vaadwaur, its their long range artillery - once targeted, you only have a few seconds to get out of dodge before extremely heavy damage hits your ship. The counter is simply to keep your ship moving at top speed.

Voth captial ships have an invulnerability shield that reflects damage back at you. It's similar to Feedback Pulse's effect, except the invulnerability applies to only one shield facing. The counter is simple too, stop firing when you see that banded golden shield come up.

The Kazon has the ability to sub-nuc your ships, doubling the time you can re-use your abilities. Either cleanse the effect or be conservative with when you use your bridge officer abilities.

The Tzenkethi have specialist ships that apply healing and shielding to surrounding ships. The closer their ships are, the stronger the effect. So don't gravity well their ships together, and be sure to target those shielding and healing ships first. Also, Tzenkethi have weak forward shields so the best way to attack them is head on.

Yeah, I learned about the Voth ship the hard way. I just spammed the gravity well constantly to beat it, lol.

As for the Vadwaur one, that's where your ship is engulfed in a light blue sphere, right? If it's that, I can counteract it by deploying my ablative armor. If they deploy it before it recharges, I have a boff ability that accelerates the ship.

I wish they would allow you to skip or play any mission you want, i got up to Dyson sphere and i can't bring myself to run another charactor through it. lol

Do the first Dyson mission and then you should be able to skip the rest.

They made it with Age of Discovery so you can skip most of the missions, and none of them are level locked anymore, they all scale to your level.

Aye, what Tuskin said.. I just want to add that they've streamlined the mission journal for AoD. You can now skip past all missions, as long as you do the introduction mission for some of the "chapters".
 
I just bought a PS4 and to my surprise and delight, Star Trek Online was there, all completely free. Quite fascinating, indeed.

I've only just downloaded it, but I'm quite curious to see what it's all about. And if there's anyone here who either wants to play with me (I think that's what it's about?) or has some tips or wants to help me understand it, shoot!

Did the second Disco mission today. I take it Tilly is only in the ones where you play as a Discovery toon? I’ll probably have to try that one day but I’ll need my sister to create my character. I can’t be bothered with all that nonsense. :)
