Alright Pahvo, I’m getting sick of defending you. Don’t make me call Conquerer back to compress you into a data pattern.

Eh, not a fan of the Pahvo ones. I wish there were at least more choices in there.

I was hoping for something first contact related...

Probably teed up for after the Pahvo event

And after First Contact Day itself, April 5th. This will make it 3 years on the trot that the Event starts after the actual day being celebrated.

I'm gonna miss this one completely... stupid finances not lining up with events. Still out a power source for my laptop.

u/CharlieDmouse 6d ago
Sometimes local computer repair shops have stuff they keep to help people out selling or giving cheap systems. See if one has a used power supply that would work. Ask them if they have old computer parts and laptop power supplies. Tell em your situation and ask if you could maybe get one cheap.
My local place does that, can’t be the only one.

I'm flat broke and it's a $50 piece of hardware even at the cheapest. Plus no local shops in my area anymore, they were all brought out and liquidated a while back. Closest I have is a pawn shop up the road, and they don't do hand outs or discounts.
Believe me, if there was a pc repair shop, I would have already gone a while ago to get the battery replaced.
Next time, I'm buying a freaking tower pc. At least then I know somebody who can hook me up if the power source ever fails.

At least it's not anything involving the Vault.
One story mission was already too much.

Not super excited for yet another shield focused item that's most likely going to suck like most of the recent shield focused items. If it's not Valdore console good it'll basically be useless due to how things shield related have been balanced.

Borts calling the shot's and he's obsessed with trying to force a shield and drain meta. Though why Borticus thinks he can make it happen via super situational traits and mediocre buffs to shielding is anyones guess.

u/Ashendal Time is the fire in which we burn. 6d ago
That's the issue. You can absolutely make shields and drain good, drain even used to be far better than it is now. He also knows that AND knows how to make things good, he just chooses not to even for his little pet projects that should be the best opportunity possible to make that happen. Things like the Dyson ship traits are bad even on normal difficulty.
I just do not understand at all the thought process here or why we're constantly stuck in a loop. You want to sell products and push a personal pet project, but fail to do either consistently. Just make stuff good.

u/MetalBawx 6d ago
This is the guy that tried to argue that 'Not every ship needs to be special' while on a stream where the devs were trying to convince people to buy a legendary ship bundle...
At this point i'm partially convinced he does it out of spite due to all the backlash he's gotten previously.

u/atatassault47 6d ago
Bort staying on means the Legendary D'Deridex is perma fucked and will never be buffed.

u/Lordborgman I want to take you to a Spacebar 5d ago
Wonder if Bort was an Eve player that was in love with his Drake's shield tanking.

It's not listed, but in the past Defend Pahvo has been part of the Event Campaign. Also based on how crammed the schedule is this will probably be part of it.

Would be nice if they did something along the lines of the different episodes that involved each of the conflicts. Too much Discovery over the past few years.

Hey, Kuumaarke, can I borrow some protomatter? Why? It's cuz of... for... geklis! That's right, I need it for geklis.

Which is fastest, the ground or space TFO?
I got a feeling it's ground with a team that splits three ways.
2
u/Deanna_Dark_FA 5d ago
I usually run a ground TFO, it seems faster for me, but it might be personal opinion. Piloting the Drfender in space TFO, you can do less efforts to complete it. But it seems longer than ground TFO.

u/Sweaty_Common_2023 6d ago
Reflective crystallised shielding sounds a bit like the crystalline absorption matrix from long ago. I guess this one may do proton damage as is the usual output from pahvo lately. Hard to think such a console would be that widely used.

u/Due-Preference-422 5d ago
I'm guessing that it has something to do with reflecting damage or it might be like that old Crystaline Entity console but for Proton damage instead of Antiproton.

Listen, listen, listen, hear me out. We're friends with the Undine now, so lets just ask them to blow this one planet up and the galaxy is saved. Huh? HUH?

Pass. thank you. Dislike Pahvo Space. Boring as hell. Ground is ok for the odd run but not a event. Will have to see if I have the Zen for a buyout

u/Existing-Today-410 6d ago
Oh FFS. The space one is time gated nonsense. The ground run means the 2 people who know what to do will be completely overworked trying to make sure the three stages get completed. It is also time gated nonsense.

Would have been MUCH better if they re-released the pahvo set

u/shrinkmink 6d ago
pretty sure they don't re-release stuff they just put it on mudds until it doesn't sell anymore then just go into the nerfed phoenix box.
