so any plans on farming lock boxes before they disapear???

One does not "Farm" lockboxes. They are forcibly shoved at you everywhere you go, and you really have no input in the matter short of refusing to pick them up. Nothing gives more lockboxes, although you can apparently not get any lockboxes in Foundry. As such, no, there are no plans to farm lockboxes. You can stuff them into the bank until we run out of space for them, or try to sell them...they're lockboxes. Who gives a shit?

On a more relevant note, here is our upcoming plan for Fed:
Construction on Sci is going to stop after this project pending the discount for Dev3 competing, now that it is running. Why?

Because our next project, after Dev3 is done, is to build SB4 to get +1500/all. It will take 10 days to complete this project, during which we will gain another 11K or so XP. This means that where we are now is therefore enough. And because it will eat a large amount of vespene gas.

Construction priorities for KDF are unchanged as we must proceed at full speed.

For both sides, we will build Mine 2, followed by the Fleet Shuttle so we can actually GET there, and then then Trade 3 for the consoles, while doing some discount provisioning using the Dev3 boost.

No one is to waste provisions buying that MK XI trash! Provisions are not FREE given our low volume of vespene and therefore not to be wasted on garbage you will subsequently throw out merely days later. If I catch anyone doing this, I will slap you!

Elite Cores will be ready and we will begin provisioning for those in 10 days. Huzzah. I'd warn you not to buy any of that Advanced trash, but you can't anyway since we didn't actually do any provisioning yet as T3 Provisioning with T3 Dev discount offers a better ROI than T2 with T2. But since Trade is second, T2 with T3 discount > T3 still.

Are we going to up Engineering instead of Sci so it doesn't fall behind too much?

If vespene supply from you slackers permits. It ran today because we got a trader. This is definitely a MUCH lower priority than, well, anything else, though. There really is absolutely nothing cool coming down that pipe at all. The last time Fed Engi gave anything was during T3, when we unlocked Elite Ground stuff. It is questionable if this was even a thing...since it's not STF materiel. The Elite Engines were nothing to write home about, and as far as I can tell, nobody here uses them.

So really, the last time Engi gave anything anyone could have cared about was T2 with Advanced Smurf Weapons. It's an entirely different story KDF-side where absolutely everything gives SOMETHING, with Tac5 being the weakest of the lot for Klingons due to the obsolescence of the B'rel, but still useful for Romulans where it unlocks their Ha'fleets.

recently i did few hours of defera easy runs and got ONE dominion lockbox ...so they dont drop[or they fucked drop rates enabling all old boxes with this event ...]
and no i dont have any shit from fleet stores anyways

 

[Norfleet]

Well, Defera doesn't really have a high density of stuff blowing up. I came out of ISE with another half a dozen lockboxes. Frankly, we have bajillions of lockboxes already. They aren't really USEFUL without bajillions of keys.

 

[Drakron]

Free shit ...

[Norfleet]

I am opening the SB4 project so I can flush surplus doffs. Don't fill in the vespene, as the amount required will drop when Dev3 completes, and the project will not be kicked off until then.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Roger that.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Achtung! FREE stuff today is Yellowstone Runabout and To'duj Fighter. Definately worth grabbing.

 

[Davidshky]

That was yesterday. Now we're getting these ships.

 

[eklektyk]

claimed all free shit already.

finnaly my klink has a coffin to fly in ...

and maaaaan ppl opening new boxes like mad ...that spam is tedious.

 

[Drakron]

Just disable notifications.

According to the calculations tomorrow should be a T5 ship since if its T4 it falls short of the "over 7500 zen", only question is if its a RA or VA ship ... my bed is the Vulcan ship and the Flying Pig.

 

[eklektyk]

funny thing is : they gave for free 2 dresses for fed and none to kdf my klink feels left out ...

KDF only have a C-Store uniform, granted they could have put the Mercenary or Formal outfits since KDF now have access to off-duty outfits and would give it to Romulans as well.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

I've bitched long and hard about how I wish KDF got more C-Store uniforms, specifically some species-linked uniforms like Gorn battle bling togas or more complete Nausicaan armor.

 

[Drakron]

Well anyway ... last day so everyone get the free Marauder and the Free Nebula, these are T5 ships.

Edit, also:

... you have until this Monday (8/19/13) at 10AM PDT to claim the ships

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

And it's a good idea to grab the chance for the Marauder. It's a Flight Deck Cruiser, AKA tank with fighters.

More like getting Slavers and work on Contraband farming.

one day i will need to look into that but for now i content myself with blowing shit up for fun and all that

 

[Szioul]

Didn't they nerf the Slavers? Now they only occasionally give some random commodities from what I've read on the forums.

They said they didnt touch that, of course more often then not my pets are unresponsive and dont attack targets unless its within 10km (and a lot of times, not even that) that makes them miss the point.

Not surprised they havent nerfed it and they are now just as broken as all pets are.

 

[Davidshky]

I heard they increased the quantity of loot but decreased the quality to compensate.

 

[Zarniwoop]

Holy crap, you guys are STILL grinding? Starbase must be up to level 3 by now lollllolololllololol.

Yeah, that was my 1701st post.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Actually Starbase is almost finished now.

 

[Norfleet]

Say, anyone see what happened to Subject? Did he die?
