Delta Recruit Mentor Prize Draw

Have you made a delta recruit recently?

If not, you should have! chop chop go and make one, the rewards are awesome, if you aren't sure what it is drop me a message and I will be happy to go over it in detail.

For those of you that made a toon I would like you to nominate fleeties who helped you. Were you stuck on a mission and a white knight came to your rescue?

Were you not sure about the best way to build your new ship or where to put skill points on a class you had never played before and a helpful soul helped you out?

We are going to reward fleeties that make everyone's lives that little bit better. Post a reply with a fleetie who helped your delta recruit out and let us know what they did to help you and their name will be entered in a draw to win a copy of Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion :D

There are 2 copies to give away and the draw will happen from all the names that are put forward.

The deadline for submissions is the 17th of May and the two winners will be announced on the 21st May.

Best of luck to all, go forth and help your fleeties, there just might be an awesome prize waiting for you at the end :)

Was you stuck on a mission and a white knight came to your rescue?

ooh this is my chance for my white knight to come rescue my poor, blonde delta dumbo!!! :woohoo:

I forget this persons @ handle but the toon's name was "Delta Burke". They came to my rescue early in the Delta Recruit event when I was on Kassae looking for the Iconian tech thing and couldn't find it for an hour (tricorders on that map all point to a dead body far away from the Iconian tech). This person dropped their mission, teamed with me, redid the mission with me, and showed me where the tech thing was.

I've tried to pay it forward by telling everyone in chat where it is, but this person deserves a public thanks!


Delta Burke@Six-of-Nine

@joshintrepid (former fleet member), @knightchucky, @frozenlily, @lars1091

They have all assisted me in levelling my characters when I fell behind due to administrative duties over the initial weekend.

Keep them coming guys :D

@zeryon and @rasterpup

The boys helped me out by crafting my ship and ground gear, taught the ways of "Crafting for Beginners" and how to upgrade my gear. GAVE me all the needed resources to upgrade my gear each time I hit a new rank. Talked me through the life of a tac officer (never had one before, didn't like the ships, mind changed)

@eurrsk

Dragging me through the missions and stories that I didn't care for and making me laugh the entire time

@zeryon, @rasterpup, @eurrsk, @darkcreepsin

They made me come back.


'Ohhh Paladia, look, if you make an alt you'll get all this neat stuff!' they said.
'Oh but, like, life.' It was a flimsy excuse, but an excuse all the same.
'If you come back we can all make clones of the same Vorta and it will be grand,' they said.
And this is how I found myself doing the Fed tutorial mission between clients in the clinic.

I could spend a long time talking about how my fellow clonesies helped me out ingame, but suffice it to say that I wouldn't even BE ingame in the first place if it weren't for them.

In case anyone doubts, here are four of us and a worried-looking passer-by:

Well, I am never going to top Paladia's return (welcome back btw :woohoo: ), but @rixter1978 and @williamjaneway both helped me level up. Nothing too fancy, but I like to have the company in all those missions that I have played a lot of times already.

@williamjaneway, @eurrsk, @rainbowwargames, and @pollockjaw all helped me with leveling Ellis, Corspa, Dante, and Hahku Tetrius :) without them I'd still be at level 5 trying to convince a borg im not worthy of assimilation and now I am ;D

This is very much still open keep submitting the people who have really helped your levelling experience :D

And I nominate alex284 for talking skills, getting me a youtube video link and even the maligned powers of [no one from the PvP department may click the spoiler - especially milmar!]

:woohoo:

Cal i think im having an aneurysm

This is a bump on this for any last minute entries i will be doing the draw at the end of this week, bit later than anticipated but my birthday interupted me :P

So who helped you out with your delta recruits do we have any fleet MVPs who deserve some recognition, get posting here for them to have a chance to win :)

I'd like to nominate Divine@JohnWaters for teaching me that the only thing standing between me and 70K+ DPS are a pair of cha-cha heels for Christmas.

Ohhh Ive not noticed this!

Well id like to nominate a few peoples.. for helping me through leveling.
But not just through the delta recruit event, but from when I fist joined.

I'll start with

Ryan, @wsstks.
Not only through the new delta recruits.. but from when I first joined the fleet.. I was a newb .. a bad one at that. I joined STO.. and it was rather like someone had thrown me into a barrel of nuts and bolts, and was ordered to make a ship out of them.. I had no clue!
..but I made a lovely rainbow beam boat!!
He befriended me and guided me through the inner workings, taught me what works well with what, what makes things boosted, taught me about skill allocation.
Guided me through the STFs.
he was my savior when starting out as a fresh faced recruit at the start on my STO experience.. and having to grind through missions again through the new DR made it more funner.
and hes been my wingman ever since, in and out of game.

Miss Andrea Coffee-lips, @chemistryset.
The link queen, who has supplied me with a number of links to get a better build, to monitor my DPS.. and supplied me with a few goodies that are quite valuable.
(to which i still will pay you back :) )
Shes always on chat to lend a hand with anything, especially PVE runs to help grind for rep marks, or to help with a mission or two.

Sir Joseph Fritzl @knightchucky.
When I was left alone crying and bored he befriended me, which is not hard to be his friend because hes a nice lad.. he again helped me with a ship build for a class i was unfamiliar with. He created a build on that fancy ST academy ship build.. and shared the link with me, included a heap of notes that guided me on how to actually FLY my new ship in battle, rather than me just hitting space bar.
Though some of the consoles I didnt own.. it was fun to grind for them, He inspired me to set goals.. for certain consoles and special items.
I guess not having it all handed to me on a plate was a good thing, as when grinding for these certain items helped my game play and a learned even more through that process.
His help & friendship has been invaluable.

Ive just hit 15k DPS.. and its in thanks to the people mentioned, for their guidance. whoop!

As well as the 3 listed above.. a LOT of the fleet has helped me.. in chat or on TS, just taking part in a chat has taught me a few secrets and tips.
So its always good to chat in chat or pop on teamspeak now and then, make friends! learn from each other.
