Greetings Everyone,

There are lots of people (myself included) who occasionally get confused by all the abbreviations and acronyms in-game. I thought I'd consolidate all of the STO (Star trek Online) related acronyms into one thread, sorted by category. If there are any additions you feel that should be made, please reply here or contact me privately!

[Supergrover]

Invaluable for new guys (and some older members)

Nice list Cehus!

[Mazoue]

Oh! very nice, Thank you Cehus!

[Cehus]

I'll add common items when I have a spare half hour to sit down and do it, Stay tuned!

[DaUnknownAdmin]

Handy little list!

You might consider;

EP2W: Emergency Power To Weapons
EP2S: Emergency Power To Shields
EP2E: Emergency Power To Engines
AP2SIF: Auxiliary Power to the Structural Integrity Field

I'm not 100% on that last one, can someone please confirm if it's Aux or Emergency

[Endeavour]

This should be useful, thankyou.

[Kedar Tyrone]

This is a good idea.

Don't forget the various acronyms for STF missions. Those are the ones that I have seen the most questions about in chat tabs.

*On a side note my brain may soon go into "acronym overload" on account of all the acronyms that I have in my head but that is ok.

[Daedalus]

AP2SIF: Auxiliary Power to the Structural Integrity Field

I'm not 100% on that last one, can someone please confirm if it's Aux or Emergency

It's Aux, often abbreviated as Aux2SIF.

[Curzon Peers]

I normally see it written as Aux2SIF or sometimes A2SIF.
I am more accustom to emergency powers being EPtX rather than EP2X
HYT is an acceptable variant to THY
You're missing Charged Particle Burst (CPD), Photonic SHockwave (PSW) and Tykens Rift (TR)

Also the old STF (Spefial Task Force) abbreviations (I'm not as familiar with the new ones since I can't remember things like if the ground map is cure found or cure applied)
STF
KA: Khitomer Accord
C: Cure
I: Infected
H: Hive

Type:
G: ground
S: Space

Difficulty:
N: normal
E: Elite

KASE : Khitomer Accord Space Elite
IGN: Infected Ground Normal
etc.
(ALSO Crystalline Cataclysm is often abbreviated to CE [Crystalline Entity] or CCE/CCN)

BNPs are BioNeural Processors, a reward from elite STFs used to buy mk XII Omega rep Gear
