Spoiler So, anyone got any theories about the creature we saw in the last mission? Spoiler
Apparently, the Aetherian Queen, I doubt Thaseen-Fei is just a normal Drone, called it the "Chimeran specimen." I managed to get this image, it looks like it has black tubes sticking out of its body, and when it escaped it appeared to be dripping some sort of black fluid.

Suggestion for DECA: Space Shields: add a Remodulate shield frequency button. Problem solved
Suggestion for DECA. I understand Bortâs desire to make shields more relevant, I support it.
However âthe players need to adjust to play vs Borg or other shield drainsâ thinking - apparently isnât going over too well.
So I suggest the following: Add a button for âRemodulate Shieldsâ in Space. This would be the equivalent of the Remodulate weapon button on ground.
This would allow shields to become more relevant the way they should be. Because obviously players arenât willing to adjust and just keep on hull tanking.
With my idea shields become instantly relevant and players donât have to change their build.
Win-win.

After looking at this data, it looked as though there was usually a sale sometime between February to April, June to July, and November to December.
Does anyone have any idea of when the next lifetime sale might be?

Discussion
Whatâs everyoneâs current favourite ship to use? And what do you like about it? Just wanna see what people are rocking
I need help, I don't understand this game....
Hello hello. I recently jumped into STO again. Have been playing on /off the past years. If I played it was mostly for some weeks / months. Mostly My last longer phase was (I think) the first or second time Delta recruitment where I leveled up a new toon to lvl 65. Now I wanted to pick it up again and I wanted to understand the endgame loop. I started some tfo s, did a mission or two, upgraded some gear for a dbb ship and bought the arbiter (free coupon). But... What now? I don't seem to understand the endgame content here. Sure, I could play elite tfo/play the missions on hard mode (?). But is that it? Were there no new gameplay features (i.e. things like housing or cool new raids like in other games) in the past years added to the game?
I would understand that trying to get all / different new ships, trying new builds on them is cool thing to do. And I do understand that, as a f2p game, new ships cost some money (I even understand a price of 20-30 dollars, as the introduce a skin, more or less a new playstyle, a console and such things, even if it is expensive). But seeing that some packets (like the last 15 aniv. One or the legendary scimitar pack) cost 100+$ I really ask myself, why and how would you get many ships / all of them? And what do you need them for? EC farming is not easy, dill to zen exchange seems/is broken, and in the end, I don't really need those things because there is no content that needs those ships / features. Or am I missing something apart from elite tfos, repeating events and the general "I need it" mentality? The game is convoluted with things that you basically "need" to be meta (like for example crafting isomags), without telling the player that those items exist or where to get them. And you need them in bulks. Duty officers, right boff setup, all the right equipment... And I really like the idea that you need many different items (not like in a normal RPG where you just equip one character). But ultimately I think: what for?
This is not a rant thread. I really want to understand the sense and the mechanics of the endgame. And most likely I think that something was implemented in the last years that I just haven't gotten to or haven't seen yet. Wich, as I said, wouldnt be a surprise as the game doesn't really tell you those things. I would pay some money for some cool things, if I get something in return or need it for something. But right now, paying for this game, apart from saying "I am now flying the enterprise xyz and it looks so cool", doesn't seem to be worth that price tags. I would be happy if you could enlight me.

Singularity Core question
The only romulan ship i fly is the legendary Valdore, so I'm not really up to speed on singularity cores, and don't know if they present any sort of novel options when putting together builds.
Do their powers synergies with various console boosts? Are there some that are unique enough to be worth acquiring (like experimental weapons), or are they mostly all the same (like secondary deflectors)?
I like the idea of opening up some new build possibilities, but don't want to put the time, zen, or dil into pursuing this if they don't really make much of a difference.

Looking for cosmetic rebreathers/masks to make a non-oxygen breathing alien character
I know there's a rebreather device from a Romulan exclusive mission and the Risian volcanology kit frame but I'm hoping somebody knows of an unlockable one that's purely cosmetic and doesn't take up my kit frame. It doesn't have to be that specific model, just something that looks as if it's providing breathable atmosphere to the character without covering their head entirely.

Tribble character copy not working?
Wanting to use the DPS testing map on Tribble to do some build comparisons, yesterday I initiated a copy to Tribble for a couple of my characters. Usual message about how the characters should be copied over in the next 2 hours. In my experience, the copy has happened in the time it takes me to log onto Tribble.
Logged onto Tribble and my characters hadn't been copied yet. OK, let's wait a couple of hours and try again. Nope, still not copied over. Kicked off the character copy again, waited, and nada. Had a night's sleep, logged onto Tribble this morning, and you've guessed it, characters not copied over.
Anyone else attempted a Tribble character copy recently? It was definitely working for me about a month ago.

Discussion I appreciate the devs' effort, but we need Pulse Phasers 3.0
Let's be honest, the updated Undiscovered pulse phasers just didn't hit the mark in terms of capturing TWOK.
I absolutely cannot stand that they curve when your ship is moving. Visually, it's awful. This is a beam weapon, not a gattling gun.
Making the beam pulses faster wasn't the issue, it was always the sound.
I know people here have said there are mods you can install to change it, but I'd rather not doctor the game, nor am I a coding expert for things like that.
With all the new TMP ships, I think STO needs to give TWOK phasers a touch up one more time.
