[Notice] - Phoenix Prize Pack NOV 2019

Sunfire · Posted Sun 01 Dec, 2019 3:39 PM

Okay, I blew a lot of Dilithium on Phoenix boxes, as I need a metric sh*t ton of upgrade kits for epicing out my stuff.

Out of 400 boxes I got exactly 0 epic tokens and a whole whopping 0 ultra rares.

Nothing to see here, move along...

Yeah same! Luckily I got one epic out of 750 boxes, and I've used that already on the T6 Breen ship purly for the "cold hearted" trait! The rest I used for tech upgrades. Still waiting for them to add the Reiterative Structural Capacitor console.

Wait until 'Picard' hits the screen; they'll be new gear, ships and probably a "Picard Lockbox", R&D and the works... you know it's coming...

Quick version - they say the phoenix pack is returning permanently but the daily free packs are gone. I suspect this may be n attempt to stop the dil exchange from completely imploding.

Heck yeah! A dil sink for phoenix upgrades

So if Phoenix boxes are staying, that kinda makes normal dilithium upgrades obsolete right??? Just saying...

Are any of the T5 or T6 ships worth getting form the Phoenix packs? Apart from DOMINO, are there any useful consoles on those ships?

Miles · Posted Sun 09 Aug, 2020 9:03 PM

The Breen Plesh Tral Heavy Raider for the Cold-Hearted Trait

or

The Lukari Ho'kuun Science Vessel for the Universal Protomatter Field Projector Console

Taku · Posted Mon 10 Aug, 2020 2:54 AM

And... depending on how you play, you might consider the Krenim Science Vessel [T6] for the trait (Improved Feedback Pulse) and the Krenim Chroniton Torpedo Launcher.

Of course you can always cash in an Epic for 2 Ultra Rares and get 2/3 of the Exotic Particle Generators Set! Everyone needs a Luxury Cruiser in their inventory, and if you don't already have the [T6] and Pilot versions of the Risian Corvette, why not pick up the cheap one? That assumes that you're doing the LOLnut Favors Event to get the Risian Weather Control Vessel.

About the only thing I ever use the pheonic pac for are for upgrades as well, I think the only event ship I don't have on my account is that wierd 2/5 layout Vorgon cruiser. I will gladly take any free packs they give me though I need to get my Romulan Engineer at least to MK XV gear
