STO/Cryptic:The 12th Anniversary Event!
#1
The 12th Anniversary Event!



As Star Trek Online completes its twelfth year representing the Star Trek universe, we are pleased to kick off the festivities for our Anniversary Celebration starting on PC on January 25th, 2022 and continuing until February 24th, 2022. (Console dates will be announced at a later date.)

All of the usual activities will contribute toward your Daily Progress in the Event, eventually earning your way toward the Grand Prize – a Tier 6 Ship!

Keep reading to reveal what activities and prizes await those who join us to celebrate the 12th Anniversary.

The Grand Prize for this event will be a brand new Tier 6 ship – revealed tonight at 4:30 PT on a new Ten Forward Weekly! You can watch on our Twitch Channel or our Facebook Page.

Part of the anniversary update will be a brand new episode, "Red Shift." We'll have more information on it when it goes live, but it will be a part of this event, as seen below.

 

Activities:


Episodes – 2 Daily Progress

(New) Red Shift


TFOs – 2 Daily Progress

(New) Iuppiter Iratus


Omega Stabilization (Daily) – 1 Daily Progress


Remember that earning additional Daily Progress also grants you scaling Dilithium Ore bonus rewards, after you have claimed the Grand Prize!

Players unable to find the time to complete the Event, or interested in rushing to complete their progress, will have the opportunity to purchase the remainder of their Daily Progress using Zen at any time. The base price for this buyout will be discounted based on the amount of Daily Progress you have already accrued.



Omega Molecule Stabilization Game

Q is up to his annual shenanigans. He will once again be rewarding captains for stabilizing Omega Particles found in various social zones in Star Trek Online. Talk to Q to get the mission “Omega Stabilization (Daily)” and you will be given three zones to visit where you must stabilize an Omega Particle by playing a minigame. The chosen zones will change periodically, inviting players to explore the vast expanses of space in order to complete this challenge.

The minigame itself is simple - Omega molecules will fall in from the left in one of four channels. Captains will move the capture device into the correct channel as the molecule hits the right-hand line. The more molecules you capture, the more Omega molecules you’ll safely dissipate, and the more points you will score.

Q doesn’t care how many points you score, just that you complete the minigame in order to receive credit for his Daily Mission. Doing so will grant you Daily Progress if you have not already earned it for the day, as well as the other standard rewards associated with this Daily Mission.

The score received from the minigame does influence your rewards, however! The more points you score, the better chance you have at scoring better quality Omega particle remnants which can be used with the R&D system to craft special Omega Particle Tech Upgrades.

Omega Traces come in the three different colors of the Omega nodes themselves. Using the R&D system you can combine 1 of each Trace into an Omega Sliver. You can them combine three Omega Slivers into an Omega Shard, and three Omega Shards into an Omega Fragment. Three Omega Fragments can then be combined into an Omega Tech Upgrade which costs no dilithium to apply, and supplies a massive dose of Technology and Research Points to whatever item it is applied to. Alternately, two Omega Fragments can be combined with varying amounts of Refined Dilithium to produce [Mark] and [Rarity] variations of the Omega Upgrade. These variants focus entirely on improving item Mark or Rarity, respectively, making them ideal for players seeking specific avenues of upgrading their equipment.

Completing the minigame will always score you a single Omega Trace at the very least. The better you score, the greater your chance to win Omega Slivers, Shards, or even Fragments. Beginning with this year’s update, all Omega materials will be changed to Bind-to-Account-on-Pickup, rather than being tradeable with other players. However, refinement techniques have improved since the previous event, so rewards from the minigame will be a bit better, especially for those who score fewer points.



New Party Popper!

It wouldn’t be the anniversary without a brand new Party Popper to earn. The 12th Anniversary version of our annual toy-device presents the amoral exultation of the Terran Empire! Captains may hesitate to engage in such dubious merriment, but ‘tis the season!

We’ll see you at the party!
