Off topic of video but what's the best FC to get for the second slot?

Great video. I just watched it five months later. I am a Level 42 and having trouble. I never got an Enterprise I chose the Augur. I cannot seem to get ISS Jelly shards, where are they? Should I go back and get an Enterprise? I have a Monaveen, a Voyager, an Eviscerator, an NX01, Talios. My Monaveen is 13 mill, Voyager 10 mil, Stella is weak, Mantis 4 mill. Thoughts?

I did find all 5 points helpful. Good job.

Hi, perfect video but with troi/Ezri and Kira. What would it be like? A little update would be perfect ^^ Thanks

Need an update on this

Im using Pic Worf HgW and Dukat with Kira and Tendi

I'm using the Pic officers with the shot multipliers

Good video

I'm getting 32 shots round two

Your videos even though I am subscribed rarely pop up but I have to go searching for them

Excellent list! Good to hear what some of the early/mid-level ships can do, especially Meridian and Mantis. Thank you for putting this together. A couple places where my experiences differ from yours: My Franklin has been a very solid swarm raider up to Lvl 32s, which is the max level I need for dailies at the moment. My Intrepid, though admittedly slow, has been a very consistent hostile grinder. I've made her especially tanky against hostile survey ships, which was very helpful for reputation grinding. She typically lasts longer than my Saladin, and at present (OPS 33 going on 34) is my strongest ship. Admittedly, I'm not that big on PVP, so my priorities are different from yours.

Thinking about officer abilities that sometimes can be boosted with Pike etc and sometimes not. Anything that activates at round start seems a no go. Definitely something that is confusing. Try Pike Moreau and Lorca for 100% hull breach. But other officers that you may want to boost like Ro Mudd does not work. And which abilities in base defence are worth boosting. Maybe worth a video?

Dude.... this was brilliant for me!!! I cant tell u how much i appreciate it

Given how the PvP meta has changed with the advent of apex-barrier, would you reevaluate the 50+ ships? Fights now will last longer, mostly in PvP, but somewhat in PvE as well. Any thoughts on it?

I just quit STFC after 9 days, when I discovered it was just a constant grind game. No interesting fighting, strategy, and randomness, which I like. Also, was looking for game to play with my wife, where we could go on adventures together.

generic mining officers are essential. You confuse relative importance. with essential

Very timely. Details did matter. For people who focus is nothing but ships, this is going to be a wake up call. They need to spend time on Crew development and research.

If you get shards for the "useless" ones, level them up. Their level is added to the total officer level needed to upgrade the mess hall avix's 30 points are just as valuable as grush's

Upcoming in the next few months - Apex barrier piercing

this is guy made this video drunk he has no idea.

The Aquatics need another look, somethings off with them. A 52er in my alliance regularly kills 6-8 Battleships daily with Epic, data and Janeway at tier2. That shouldn't be possible.

You must be a spender. Thanks to folks like you I get to play for free.

I think Voyager might be S tier for the refinery, farming huge amount of messages, and especially the ability to punch up on armada credits with support from your high level alliance members.

A note needs to be made on the Saladin, it's the best ship, but competes for resources with Vidar and Horizon

Cerritos is my fav 2nd ship for waves. after a while it does decent damage, plus allowing you to buff yourself and alliance people during waves is unmatched. (im also a 39 camper with a t8 cerritos). using things like max fortify/cerritos buff are often overlooked. as long as your ship doesn't blow up, the buff stays.. so if you're say.. grinding SOL, just go live in Wolf and recall at low hp instead of blowing up.

Yeah wegonna need that crew video for Dom armadas

Just found your channel and this video is great. Can you do a video on the important research for PvP? This is sorely lacking for STFC. Thanks and keep the videos coming!

Ayo bro u should've taken Rev devs opinion into co sideration . Legion is good for cloak dailys

thank you for the explanation. there is so much of this that is hidden in the game 🙂

Hey Endy, do you have any of the Level 58 rare faction miners yet? If yes, how are they? :) Greetings from Switzerland. See you on Ops 60 soon, hopefully. ^^

zed

Very well explained

Talios will grow into a very high power ship due to her strong health but for the 30s,40s defiant has the better range and far better firing sequence which makes her the best pvp ship for Carol crew I was re-living the glory days of Saladin hitting twice my size at incursion and my victims didn't know what happened 😂

Do you have discord?

TYVM for the video. The crew test was nice with a maxed brel. Would be nice to see your research tree, what artifacts used, command center and who's in the seat, etc.. etc.. I'm ops41 have 95% research completed, need ops 42+ to unlock more research, etc..etc.. I've tried your crews but in a maxed Enterprise and still 0 kills. There's more to tell your viewers so please do so instead of barely scratching the surface about the topic at hand.

I am 115 and my root and pestilence persistent breaks in about 5-10 seconds when I root rot. I have flesh to venom and is that considered DD. I am checking to make sure than none of my augs are DD also. Any suggestions?

I just tried using the wounds spells and they won't stack. Has this been fixed by a patch?

Yes, I did watch the whole Video.. lol Thanks much for all the work you put into things and your Insights.. It does make planning ahead so much better... I would not be so down on the miners since, they are especially crucial to the game economy... But I see you are spot on with a lot of your picks... Planning ahead is the best thing you can do in this game since it is more about the Economy ( Making Spenders Spend) Than anything else... "Live Long and Prosper"

Really well done! Best explanation for Armadas I've seen, keep up the great work :)

From level 25 onward, can't we basically just do Vidar then Talios?

Prime station resource efficiency at 99 of the moneys becomes more and more valuable as soon as you go operations 50 and above. Steel becomes a serious bottleneck and this prime makes it all much more doable.

well duh a 59 can beat a 44

awesome vid thx

Dude, you're using a 641m Sanctus against a lvl 51. Try teaching people how to punch up, not punch down.

I agree with all this. I think the loops and time commitment can't be understated. If I'm not grinding most of my free time on the game then I am going to lose out or get behind on the game. Everything seems to have a loop now and it's a min 10-15 min loop for everything if not more. It's just becoming too much and getting close to not worth the grind. I hate the surprise sms or leaderboards. Why use anything until they say mentality sucks because that's boring. Why grind for hours a day to not sure any of it. Ohhh wow so boring.

I wish I could get an image of this, best vid I’ve seen on the subject. Amazing amount of knowledge

Thanks!

Man your pvp officer levels are insane. Mine are all like tier 1 lmao. Very informative video, thank you!!

my plan on my recently new F2P account is on faction ships go legion then centurion you can see the pattern not much crystal on those ships then enterprise and legion and centurion are rom so il be able to save my fed credit for enterprise miners envoy then horizon then 3 amalgams can get legion in event store of a battle pass same as centurion i think centurion takes 2 of them BPES

i strongly disagree with your choice of lv26 faction ships mayflower is the worst you can use a vahklas while working on your franklin instead D3 ya ok but legion i would put B i strongly regret getting the mayflower on my main i dont regret the legion or D3
