As a "Pakled level user" of the Star Trek Online program since 2012, I'd just like to say, thank you! Even watching your video, I still have the distinct feeling that I'm seriously out of my depth here. There really should be a "Star Trek Online: For DUMMIES!" Or, "Everything you ever wanted to know about "Star Trek Online", but were too TERRIFIED to ask!"

The Romulan Command BOFF vendor is in the same room as the BOFF trainer. She is "hiding" in one of the glass rooms at the far side. You have to go into the room for the icon above her head to become visible.

@@MCStu Quick question on officers and the list of abilities and the learn button. If, for example, I have an tactical bridge officer that has beam overload 1 and no other beam overload ability listed next to a learn button, can I purchase a training module for beam overload 2 or 3 and allow them to learn those versions, or do I need to buy or otherwise gain a bridge officer that has beam overload 2 or 3 on their list?

I remember someone saying most of the people in STO never use any skills. They just fly in circles hitting the space bar. I break it down like this; gear is 30% of your build, your bridge officers are 30% of your build, your traits are 25% of your build, your skills are 10% of your build, and doffs are 5% of your build

Do not have to worry about bar abilities coming off the bars if you have them all bound to keyboard keys. :P :P :P Also Cardassian Boffs have a good Space Trait with Photographic Memory. 1.5% Wep Dmg, 1.5% Wep Accuracy, and 1.5% Defense Rate. I believe its available even if you did not buy the Cardassian Playable race option. Romulan Boffs can be found on the Flotilla I think.

The most complex game I ever tried to play. I have the game on at the same time as watching this video, but still I don't understand a lot. I.e. what do you need to move to the tray, everything or just some stuff. When things are in the tray how do you use it. ect? For now I just watch as many videos as I can. The main thing I am trying to figure out is what are you supposed to do in the game, how must you play it. Must you play episode after episode? Must you fly around at random and encounter stuff? Must you play with only one faction like TOS or with 6 at the same time?
