Well then there's Phased Tetryon and Polarized Disruptors

Have to admit I have not been in game much over the last month or so what with christmas, sto's winter event and secret worlds end of world event but not really sure that I am actually able to really do much with the guild here anymore anyway. My highest level toon is a measly 52 and so I am not upto dungeons or anything of that ilk. Doing what I would be doing would bore you silly as I am still in the reading story stage.

Hope that helps. :)

What sucks is that there is no list what materials are needed to make any certain piece of armor. I have no idea what materials you would need. OR is there? Is there a site packed full of information like that?

Thanks for the reminder. I remember it now. I didn't see too much of him but I remember catching a bit of color every now and then. You are probably correct in that it's some much higher level than what we currently have access to. ;)

that might be too much min/maxing for me... I get why people do it, but it drives me crazy

I remember it from that one toon we played with through that flashpoint with Paul. So I'm thinking its pve high level gear. But it's awesome just cause its orangey :D

I am wondering if that's coloration for pvp or social level based armor. Just guessing as I haven't seen any of these armor pieces anywhere. Where did you get the photos?

EDIT: Actually, the armor on the top right looks like the armor you are able to get with the 99 tokens they give you upon reaching level 50, but I have no idea where the armor with the orange points is from.

Yeah, I'd second a request for breakdowns of which skills affect which energy weapon procs; did not know this until now :o

whats the specs then for Polaron?

For purely cannon reasons, I keep my cruiser laded up with Phaser Beam Arrays. Now other than STFs, I find this woks very well for me (but I can't bring myself to use AP beams because the sound alone grates on my nerves, and with 6 arrays it drives me crazy in no time). Combined with my "Beam - Fire at Will", that's a lot of procs usually. Good for packs of smaller ships, like Spheres and Probes during Red Alerts.

As for torpedoes, again for cannon reasons I like quantums. I don't care as much about torpedoes cause as a cruiser CO, it flies like a hippo and I rarely get to fire them when it would really be advantageous (that and I have no torpedo based TAC abilities currently slotted).

Well Im not a VA yet, just a RA. Sinner told me to go ahead and save my EC/dilithium until then. In the meantime I'm just figuring out which direction I want to go in. I like that Tetryon knocks down shields. With that, Jam Sensors, and maxing out weapons energy/target Subsystem: Shields I can usually plow through enemy shields and launch a high yield quantum attack, follow up with a plasma torpedo to burn their ship, and get the hell away to recharge for another run. But if I can get a good set of Polaron weapons to knock down ALL systems (including weapons) a notch I can follow up with chornitons to slow them down and do a quicker pass before pulling back to recharge.

I like Tetryon or phased tetryon and have been using them on my Sci main until recently when I switched to anti-proton on account of the special chroniton dual beams of the temporal set on my Wells TSV. My klinks use polaron or polarized distruptors and they're great. They're not too expensive on the exchange right now.

Now I'm debating between sticking with Tetryon or going to Poleron.... choices....

Does it have to be a bahamas cruise?

I mentioned exoplanets in another post, and i'm sure the lot of you have followed these findings over the years, but Kepler has just been dominating the sky of late.

While it should be noted that these are candidate worlds not yet confirmed, needless to say that we live in exciting times.

Best,

I agree with Ozy on this one. I think the creativity and capability we have is universal, not stronger in some than others. Look back at an anthropological history of our species. Cave paintings, bead making, stone crafting, dancing, these things predate language and writing. Even speech is believed to have started out more as singing and eventually was simplified as a form of daily communication. Scans of the cranial cavity in Neanderthal remains has suggested the formation of their frontal cortex and speech centers might have been more adapted to song rather than speech.

As I stated earlier the biggest problem is shear number. It is hard for all people to be given the opportunity or accessibility when population density is high and resources or few or badly distributed. However, as education becomes more accessible we see the positive results.

Economically we see stabilization and greater community contribution. We work together to overcome hardship rather than tear each other apart (sorry doomsday prepers, but evidence shows that we are more likely to work together in bad times instead of killing each other for supplies. Exp- Super Storm Sandy). Education becomes even more accessible and as that opens new opportunities for people to specialize than we see greater attention to our careers and social circumstance; this generally reduces birth rate substantially. This is why we see fewer native Europeans being born in their own countries than we see immigrants or white people in the US. The greater the resource cost and educational expectations per child, the more cautious people will be to limit how many they have. Also access to birth control, etc etc.

Point being, as we become a more evenly educated society than the more our numbers and use of resources will stabilize. Now there are still cultural issues to work out of course (those that demand greater numbers of children to be born or limit/deny the use of contraception) but as we become more educated these older social norms begin to die off.... hopefully sooner rather than later.

can definitely find out about airfare deals if any.
Best Options Airfare is to find the online specials.we woul have plenty of time to serach and book.Airfare is much higher when left to the cruiseline to make arrangements

This is great information Sinner, thanks much. Before I vote I've got to run this by the BF and I have a few questions. I would be leaning towards the earlier-in-December options because I think the air fare would be cheaper than it would be closer to the Holidays. Do you know if these cruise lines offer any sort of discount when you bundle air fare?

Quote by Baothezar

I feel that science, math and tech is way important. because it takes years to become learn it and become good at it. while art requires the same dedication, i see it as more of a hobby.

But again, thats because the humanities in general are stigmatised as "inferior" to other subjects such as mathematics or languages. But this just isn't true.

most people dont have that spark to better themselves. And that is what is see as one of the bigger problems. People settle and not fight for their education.

I have to disagree, having worked in the education system, I've yet to see a single child without that spark, as you put, which i'd describe as creativity in a patricular field of interest. What happens is, many kids are educated out of their creative capacity, because their particular field of interest is either viewed as inferior (your previous quote is a perfect example of that) or actually stigmatised. So the musician that should have ended up on stage giving pleasure to thousands, is now a Mcdonald's chef flipping burgers. That's the tragedy of western education, as I see it.

Last week I announced plans for STONEWALL at SEA 2013.
I believe there is enough interest to continue.
December 2013 come spend a 4 day Bahamas cruise with fellow fleet members, spend time with old friends, make new friends and enjoy sharing adventures. We have several ideas for events specifically for the fleet. Among these would be reserving a conference room where we could play games together, as well as possibly a presentations from fleet members, also social events like a Costume event. These are just a few of the possibilities we have in mind.
We present you with 3 cruise options for December and a time frame we have laid out in 3 phases.
Each of these options has a different itinerary and should be affordable for most.
