For the next three weeks, from May 19th at 9:00 AM PT to June 9th at 10:00AM PT, Federation, Klingon, and Romulan Republic Captains between levels 50-60 can queue up for our 10-captain “Crystalline Cataclysm” event to defeat the Crystalline Entity and earn one Crystal Shard every 20 hours. After collecting 14 of them, players can complete a new Event Reputation project to be rewarded with 50,000 Dilithium Ore, 500 Fleet Marks, 250 Marks of their choice (Fleet, Omega, Romulan, Nukara, Dyson, Undine, Delta, Iconian or Terran Marks), and the new Crystalline Absorption Matrix Console!

Adapted from crystalline matter salvaged from shards of crystalline entities, this matrix is able to absorb incoming energy damage when engaged. The matrix uses absorbed energy to fire and amplify highly focused Matter Conversion Beams at multiple targets which are capable of piercing through ships.

This Console Mod can be equipped on any ship, in any console slot. You may only equip one of these mods on any single ship.

BONUS! Once the new, main reputation project is complete, a brand-new bonus 1-Shard project will become available to slot. Completing this will earn players 2,000 Dilithium Ore, 50 Fleet Marks and 35 Marks of their choice (Fleet, Omega, Romulan, Nukara, Dyson, Undine, Delta, Iconian or Terran Marks).

To participate and earn Crystal Shards, queue up for either the Normal or Advanced version of the event – a successful completion of either will award you with one Shard, in addition to the normal rewards.

Lastly, stay on alert, Captains! Recent intelligence reports reveal that there are a few advanced tactics the Entity and its allies are using during this event to thwart your attempts of destroying them.

Gather your friends for this epic event and we'll see you in-game!
