That's awesome! Thanks Dakon!

My schedule for the next two weeks will prevent me from playing much (travel for work; I'll actually be in GMT all next week instead of my usual PST). But once I'm back (and de-jet-lagged) I'm definitely IN for this! I'm in Balmorra now, but need to catch up on some of the lower-level datacrons anyway.

Cheers!

I would like to join but want to make sure I have the thought process right. This is for fun and not a hardcore team right?

If this is just for fun and the adventure of pvp with guildmates I'm all for it.

If this is a hardcore team and we are expected to perfect and never make mistakes then I'll have to pass as I've stated earlier I'm horrid at pvp and don't want to hold the grp back.

yes van, its just for fun, im not much for making people achieve perfection, im sooooo not hardcore!

Awesome! count Theodin in, republic side, lvl 39 Jedi Knight - Guardian

Hello Stonewall!

I am excited to announce our first officially organized event. On Tuesday nights each week, we will be forming two separate hunting parties to try and tackle all of those Datacrons scattered around the Galaxy.

Current Week's Planets:

• Low Tier - Ord Mantell & Tython
• High Tier - Balmorra

Please be sure to keep your eye on our Events Page to find out which planets we will be focusing on for the current week.

I have organized a total of 4 events: 2 Tiers in 2 Time Zones (EST/PST evening & GMT evening).

The current plan is to break the hunting party into High and Low Tiers. This allows us to break down the schedule into 6 planetary visits, allowing us to cycle through all of the planets every six weeks.

Low Tiers:
Ord Mantell & Tython
Coruscant
Taris
Nar Shadaa
Tatooine
Alderaan

High Tiers:
Balmorra
Hoth
Quesh & Voss
Balsavis
Corellia
Ilum & Fleet

I intend to lead the EST Low-Tier Party next week. I am currently seeking volunteers for the EST High-Tier Party, and both GMT Parties.

Please note: We are in need of volunteers who help serve as guides for each of the hunting parties. Experience obtaining these Datacrons would be great, but all that is really required is the ability to follow a guide and patience for helping folks who may find some of the jumps tricky. Please let me know here, or via a PM if you would like to volunteer as a guide.

I hope to build a large enough stable of volunteers so no one feels pressured to attend every week. Even better, having multiple guides will allow us to station someone at multiple points in the process to help with the trickiest parts.

I'm actually not a huge fan for light or dark as no one is perfect and the moral choices are different for all. I felt personally on the characters where I went 100% either way that it in a way ruined it due to even though you are offered choices the mindset of I'm either Dark or Light removes the other options.

What I have been doing since this discovery is choosing based on the situation and what I felt my character or myself would do in the situation if faced with it. Doing this has some upsides and some downsides.

Upsides:

• The longer you stay neutral you have access to every crystal in game.
• Companions tend to love what you do because even the light ones sometimes prefer the dark choices due to the decision you made.
• Your character isn't stuck in a mold and you tend to get different reactions.
• Sometimes even your character responses will surprise you.
• It is fun to see where it naturally takes your character.

Downsides:

• Gear becomes harder to find but is still obtainable. (even though I couldn't use vendored light sabers I got green ones to update from quests frequently enough)
• If you have issues with choices it can sometimes stump you on what to do.

Some excellent points. I may actually roll another toon on republic side (empire side are brand new so this should be interesting to test out) and try this process out as I was making choices basied on light and not taking into consideration my feelings, which sometimes wanted the dark side choices. Something to think about with my future characters and my new Empire characters.

Thanks!

I'm gonna go datacron hunting tonite (Thursday 01/26) and will reach out to guildies in our KoS chat channel and see if anyone is interested.

I am not 100% on if anyone can make an event or not (on the site). If you can't though and want to run something I'd be more than happy to help with any tools I can to help others be aware and sign up in the future.

I'd Like to join as well and finally practice being better with PVP at least with a team that I am confident has my back.

Xal - Republic - Smuggler - DPS - Level 50

We are still working hard to get the events planned. It is taking a bit longer as the new officers settle into their roles and we are also trying to make sure that we provide a good balance of fun and exciting events for both the Republic and Imperial side.

As soon as we have any information of the upcoming events we will make sure to post them to allow members time to see them. Until then I still encourage anyone with any ideas/request/suggestions to post as we love to hear what people want!

Cool! I'm all for guild events.

Any update on these events? I've been peaking into the events section for KoS and it looks pretty empty.

Republic Side:
Wooby: Armstech
Shangela: Biochem
Bottom: Armortech
Manpon: Cybertech

Well, I certainly don't plan on being goaded into an altercation, so I will be closing hailing frequencies in those types of situations.

From what I've heard, Mattachine Fleet use to be TMT Fleet, which was started by a previous member of Stonewall Fleet. I'm not sure who Sable is or even if Simale is still running the fleet. I've tried reaching out to Simale before, but I've only gotten my hand slapped. We've invited them to participate in our pride celebrations, but they don't come.

Yeah, I saw this post yesterday. I am so excited! I am not sure if I will make this my main ship (not quite liking the turn rate). Loving the universal ensign and lt. cmdr bridge officer slots.

I think a sci officer would feel at home in this ship since it still offers some decent science console space and room for sci officer abilities

STO's 2nd Anniversary event starts on Feb 2 (that's a week from this Thursday), which will also see the release of the long-awaited Odyssey-class starship. They just released some of the specs, here:

Odyssey-class Specs

However, the big news is that the Anniversary weekend will feature an event where any character at Level 5 or above will be able to acquire the ship for free. The ship cannot be operated until the character reaches Vice Admiral, but they can get it at pretty much any time and just wait until they reach VA.

When I read this, for some reason I immediately thought of this:

Episode 505 - Voyager - "The Chute" - 09/18/1996

http://www.allstepisodes.com/megvid.php?n=4303

Tom Paris and Harry Kim are trapped in a prison. Tom gets stabbed trying to protect Kim leaving Kim trying to find an escape plan alone. Simultaneously Voyager is trying to find a way to prove their innocence.

Enjoy!
