I’ve had some success with E-Picard, E-Data and Janeway. I did 50 of the 40’s with my T9 Pilum and came back with slightly more than half a hull remaining. Below deck I had Beckett, Tendi, Badgey, Paris and Ghrush. I need to decide who to drop below deck so I can add the doctor to increase drops.
Have a somewhat related question. I have posted on other sites with no response. My question is about Ex-Borg and the Favors. Do you need a certain rep level to access the favors? I have seen a couple other posts like my issue - the favors are grayed out and unable to be selected. I am desperately trying to obtain the beam and with crew suggestions, I will be able to put a dent in the Xindi grind. Any help or suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks and keep making the videos.
The new exborg expansion is designed for 40 plus. What is your ops level? My understanding is that g3 epic ships don’t put out enough damage and so it is recommended for you to have a g4 uncommon ship to do these. What is your ops level?
I am ops 41 with max G3 epics. I had no luck on the 40s. My Monaveen is tier 3 and got close on one but I gave up and just went to the 34s. It seems to be tiered to at least the G4 uncommon ships
We are still learning but it seems like the favors are going to be a big help in doing this loop. I say do what you can to prepare if you can’t make it work because there is a lot to help speed up your progress through g4. Thanks for the comment!
@@GrandAdmiralHunter I maxed the particle beam favor to delay the canon to round 6 but I can't do enough damage on the level 40s. maybe if I can tier up my Monaveen another level I can kill one but it won't be worth it for me and the smaller players until you can get close to a chest pull worth of loot in one hull. I will probably only kill the Xindi as much as I have to for the arc. It is really annoying at the moment and I expect there will be some pay to win option soon. Maybe if they do a second part of the arc they will have Capt Archer with some ability tuned to the Xindi.
@HenryGertcher I actually wonder if they will come out with the enterprise next month with a ship ability the fight these things. Seems typical scopely strategy to make something very hard in the game and then provide a paid to play option. Hopefully it will have a decent f2p path whatever it is
Oh good lord, this was pretty easy to figure out .... last arc, they had a max troi event ..... guess what the secret officer is vs these new hostiles 😂😂😂😂 ... I use e picard e troi and Harrison for Max level ... replace Harrison with 5of11 and drop down a level to farm loot.
I will have to try that tomorrow. Honestly, I was just trying different crews to help show people various options. The main idea I was getting across with that crew was reducing the incoming kinetics with tlann and cath. Thanks for the comment!
Does Mudd even work? Mudd's ability triggers when shield health is depleted. But your shields never take any damage. Does the hostile's ability function in the battle engine as if shield health is, air fingers quote, "depleted" every single round thus triggering the ability?
@rodddxlprime3153 honestly I should have explained this one better in the video. Someone in another discord suggested the crew and I had to test it just to show it. I did not expect it to work much like I did not expect janeways ability to work.
This is great! thank you very much!! A lot of trit being blown through right now :D
E-Picard, E-Data and E-Troi. Good for 120 percent of loot and Troi strips shields away.

Thanks for the comment! I hate it but I am 4 shards from having E Troi so I can’t test that unfortunately. Good to hear it works well!
I tried EPic EData Decius on my t5 K'Tinga (ops43) got 2 40s per hull
Why not pike over picard? 40% is better than 20%
I will have to try that tomorrow. Honestly, I was just trying different crews to help show people various options. The main idea I was getting across with that crew was reducing the incoming kinetics with tlann and cath. Thanks for the comment!
what crew below
It’s in the video but I used emh doctor, Paris, tendi, mariner
Pike, Moreau, skinny mudd, do not put Hugh below decks, I did 40’s on a tier 7 pilum
