Part of me wonders if whomever created the Bajoran loop was told not to do that again. That loop is pretty good in all aspects once you get to Ops 40. The next loop with the Borgs got a bit worse, then each subsequent loop has arguably continued that trend. In order to do any significant officer sourcing for the Voyager crew, they will pretty much need to either overhaul the Voyager ship loop (wouldn't be a bad idea) or create a new loop. If they go that route, I am scared of what it will entail given how complicated the recent loops have been and adding yet another one ontop of everything else is just getting to be stifling.
I've said to my alliance-mates that the Bajoran loop is one of the best designed parts of the game. The officers included with it are sourced easily without being trivial, the way that the currency prices work means you can begin shifting credits towards other things once you get to the higher rep levels without feeling guilty about it, and you're able to get all currencies at a reasonable rate to get all the favors before the next rep level as long as you're keeping up with the solo armadas. It flows better than pretty much anything else, one thing feeding into the next. So yeah, that designer was probably fired :P
When fighting exchange banks with the Stella, Chakotay does add shots but its to the base weapon before the special extra shots on banks, so he only adds like 2 shots a round.
I love doing dominion solo`s, I`m a 44 and i crew as follows Defiant(30) :- Miles/Riker/Beverley Valdore(25) :- Bashir/Sisko/Lorca Enterprise :- Kirk/5/6 Defiant is always boosted by Cerritos Valdore always boosted by Defiant Titan boost for every ship I can easily do a 50 rare, but not quite a 51 epic For 48 Epic i use Worf/Geordi/Lorca for more loot If i can get Chakotay, I will put him on Valdore with 2 synergy officers, with one being mitigation
The server 20 to 11 incursion matchup was the best one yet that I have participated in. 20 had a big lead right out of the gate and I didn't think that 11 had a chance. Luckily we had enough night owls and alliances that normally battle each other collaborated to pull ahead for the win. Thanks to all of server 20 for a good match!
It's hard to get excited about Chakotay after OBrien since Obrien has the chance to proc cumulatively and Chakotay is just a flat double shots for the duration. Extra shots + crit chance is clearly awesome but it's secondary ship worthy even at max, even harder to justify when the rest of the officers are so low level. I'm just excited for lowerdecks burning. Making Sisko+OBrien+Tyler fully self sufficient will probably make the Voyager the best armada ship for under G5s. I can already out damage everyone with Georgiou in OBrien's seat, giving me that seat back likely would make me deal more damage than everyone else added together. Truly, if you're using 6of11 over a tier 4 or tier 5 Tyler with the DS9 crew, you're actively choosing to deal less damage.
Don't throw the night crew under the bus. We busted our behinds defending all of the fools who went to bed WITHOUT SHIELDING. This was not a night crew issue (and yes at least one of the raid victims was from your alliance.... again).... and yes I was ahead of you on the pvp and the defender damage SLB's. Props to S11. There were some EPIC (pun intended) battles over raids. It was fun but S20 snatches defeat from the jaws of victory once again by people NOT SHIELDING
Watched this yesterday, ran Sisko(capt), Miles, Chakotay on Talios with my other normal ships for borg solos, he's a MADMAN!!! Three armadas Unc, rare and epic and the talios lasted for all 3 without being repaired in between, FANTASTIC! I should try put Chakotay as captain but dont have Janeway, Paris or Kim (Summer Hunt rewards rng was absolutely godawful) so that may be tricky. Paris or Janeway in Event store, which should take priority Thanks for video Rev
Chakotay as cap/Sisko/Miles (mine's maxed) my new favorite crew for armadas, near unstoppablein a 4* rare ship with just one other alliance member joining
I agree in general with everything Rev said, Chakotay is a great armada officer, he’s really only limited by the sourcing question. But def highly effective at any tier, I mean his bridge ability snowballs over 2 rounds on weapon fire, so a basically guaranteed 16% to crit chance after 2 rounds at tier 1, which is pretty substantial.
cant agree less 😅 chakotay on t1 makes any ship equal to a glass cannon... ppl still praise lorca is better than gorkon but my t5 gorkon adds much more stats than my t3 lorca and performs.better overall even if i have 1 round less HB per procc... in short: i am missing the good old, very critical rev, who didnt care for sellings....
@@kooldool2063 Stats .. recently tried to ignore them and not much is changing. Lorca over Gorkon any day. but Chakotay .. i wouldnt even use him at T2, might consider at T3 but then, Sisko is still superiour. T1 Chakotay is horrible.
Also a good crew for testing on the Defiant that is on par or better than Pic, Bev and Eurydice is: Chakotay, The Doctor and Lorca in solos. Leaves your 2 main ships to crew fully for damage
I'm hoping they will have sourcing of all Voyager officers this month. Maybe they wanted till the end of Voyager arc so they don't have to update the officer refinery for them like how they need to do for DS9(Bashir, Dax, Odo). All the officers so far have been good with Voyager, I hope the next 2 or 3 will be good and all have sourcing.
Thanks Rev. For me chakota the doctor and Torres gave the same result as 5 6 khan. Couldn’t tell if she activated hull breach from the log but she is only t1
In general the best general Crew I found for Chakotay in group Armadas, is 5/6/Chakotay or Chakotay/Janeway/ blank such as kahn/gorkon/etc. But really I prefer 5/6/Chakotay with beleana below deck
I love your videos and appreciate all of your hard work! I do wish you could have clarified his officer ability, specifically why it doesn’t work as described. I mean, an officer that adds crit chance on a hit, and then effectively doubles your shots sounds like it should be flat out OP on ships like the Pilum. Unfortunately when scopely says “hit,” that’s not what they mean…
What would be nice is if they would fix whatever keeps making the game crash constantly. I shall repeat please fix the game from crashing constantly. 🙏🖖
Thx @Rev great content as always! May I request n vid on Jem solos? I am ops35, and lack some of the officers, like Miles and Sisco, because they are just only now becoming available. Mind making a run through of what crews are good at what ops lvls and how to far you can punch up? Thx 🙏
hello rev, i was wondering that i couldn't see the main arc SLB which gives desealing road at the end of acr when you complete all mission of arc, i tried to contact them a week back but no response, i was wondering that did scoply stop giving them?
Hey Rev, why didn't you show an armada with Lorca or Gorkon? I would have thought that massive hull breach crit multiplier would be one of the best armada builds for damage in the game
Could you please try asking scopely to bring back supreme choice to event store and to try not generally have different expiration timers for same event's store? There is already so much stuff to keep track of...
He's my third solomada crew as well. Works nice there, I'm using him with Torres and Doctor as I have no Janeway. I'm curious how he would work in your setup but with Doctor for that mitigation boost.
always depends on the tier. T5 6 is "easy" to get and very effective, Torres basically has no sourcing and is way worse at T1. Its a long way for her to be challending 6
Would anyone be so kind as to post info on best armada crews for Solo (JemHadar and Borg) and regular armadas + Expasnion cube (presume it cahanged not Khan, 4of11 and6of11 anymoe) ? or provide a link where I could get thata info.
Yay another armada officer but with no further sourcing like so many officers in game now, they need to create a 2nd ultra pull with these officers in and none that's in the existing packs for players to get them like Picard, been in game like 2 years now and still no sourcing for him really 🤦
T1 definetly not, at max tier he will ramp to 100% pretty fast. I can see him challenging max Khan at T4 Keep in mind that Chakotay only triggers 1 time per weapon, he doesnt exactly do what his description says.
Most imporatnt factor unmitigation officer, second is critical and Multihit officers. Thats why Belanna is crucial. On end note u need a mitigation officer with now can be a underdeck tks to Tom Paris (that i dont has unlocked).
Changeling is horrible and she still has the risk of breaking the armadas. Theres not even a reason to use her for synergy since you will get max mitigation with just miles as synergy.
@@derpizzadieb i dont know whom you are but my changling kira procs everytime and i absolutely destroy with her if you dont believe me ill send the logs
We have tested the new crews just to have a look at how they work,,and they pull our pants down. I don’t see how he is good. There needs to be a crew, not an officer. And Janeway is bad as officer, 10% extra isolitic, c’mon. Would rather pair with doctor for mitigation. You can’t have an armada crew without mitigation. We’re always trying to punch up, and if mitigation is 50% or less, we die. Janeway is yet ti be good. Chakotay is yet to be good. We need more officers to be able to tell. Also, armadas 56k, is a loot boost Epic 51 are now so easy, we do not want to drop loot boost to kill it in another way. When doing solos, we need loot. So hard to get enough loot. Sisco miles lorca 56k Geordi bev worf/picard full synergy for loot. So far they are bad officers because we have to lose a loot crew, or that top crew that does all the work
My miles is still T1, and he is not worth bringing to any armada. He litterally never triggers at T1. One of the worst officers if he didn't have a below deck ability.
this video is misleading in my opinion and has no real environment comparism. who on earth is going for solos with 1 ship? noone wants to use directives inefficent. i am missing critical voices. this works for 1 ship.per armada but when u use 3 ships things change drastically... 3 ship solo armadas provide a wide range of variation possibilities and in all scenarios chakotay was the worst pick in my case on a 3rd ship. no crit chance or multi shot will help if your ship dies when the armada looks at it 😅. and i am not interested to do lower level armadas just to feel fancy for using chakotay.... sorry but this video is disappointing.... that when you tier up chakotay he will become op is obvious. this is a game owned by a company, companies want to.make earnings, new releases therefore are always better than the old existing mechanics... sorry to say but this video was a big waste of time

Valdore always boosted by Defiant
Titan boost for every ship

Anybody else having trouble getting Obrien working with Chakota as captain?

He's my third solomada crew as well. Works nice there, I'm using him with Torres and Doctor as I have no Janeway. I'm curious how he would work in your setup but with Doctor for that mitigation boost.
I put Chakotay with Picard and Beverly on my 3rd. 🤷🏼♂️
Without the doctor you dont get the mitigation if that crew is maxed will be as good as ds9 crew if not better
Chakotay Miles Janeway would do better with high tier Paris and BLT below deck since they will boost mitigation and potentially give hull breach.
Any recommendation on what to save up for event store arcs? For a lot of players that’s the chance to catch up!
He will do a video once we know what the store is...
with all of these new armada officers, what would you recommend for best 3 ship layout for dominion and borg solos?
That's difficult because at this point everyone has so many different things. Generically, 56K, SML, CJB are a very very strong three.

You lost?
The game is at a new ridiculous level of unstable. Crashes within a few clicks. Why don't they try a stability arc?
Does tier 1Chakotay replace max khan? If not, does he at any tier for armadas.
T1 definetly not, at max tier he will ramp to 100% pretty fast. I can see him challenging max Khan at T4
Keep in mind that Chakotay only triggers 1 time per weapon, he doesnt exactly do what his description says.

Said loaded 54 seconds ago and no views...Chef is first
Because of the way the game calculates extra shots, and rounding up. 70% extra shots = 100% extra shots
