Skill Revamp: New icons have been hooked up across the entire system. The wording and formatting for many Skill descriptions have been improved. The improvements made in the previous patch to all "Readiness" skills are now reflected in their descriptions. Ground Training Unlocks now only display those applicable to your Profession. Updated formatting for descriptions for Ultimate Ability unlocks. The damage dealt by Drain Infection now scales up with level, and can be further improved with skill in Exotic Particle Generators. Weapon Penetration (Ground) has had its effectiveness doubled (6%/4% instead of 3%/2%). Updated the descriptions on Energy Weapon Proficiency so that they no longer reference "mines and torpedoes." The following list of powers have had their base effectiveness increased to 150% of their previous base values, in order to offset the fact that the benefit less from Exotic Particle Generators under the new system than they previously benefited: Isometric Charge Cryoplasma Eject Warp Plasma Elachi Subspace Rupture (Collapse) Aceton Assimilator Heavy Graviton Beam Vent Theta Radiation Thalaron Pulse (* only player version) Metreon Gas Canisters Structural Integrity Collapse Aceton Beam Endothermic Inhibitor Beam Subspace Boom Destabilizing Resonance Beam Photonic Shockwave Tyken's Rift Tholian Web Sphere (Collapse) Overwhelming Force (Torpedo) Explosive Polarity Shift Xindi Biomatter Swarm Tractor Beam Tractor Beam Repulsors Several Deflector Dish base types have been adjusted in order to more closely match the bonuses that they gave before the Skill Revamp: Graviton Deflectors now give Control Expertise and Drain Expertise, but no longer Shield Hardness. Positron Deflectors now give Control Expertise and Shield Restoration, but no longer Hull Capacity or Shield Capacity. Reman and Romulan Deflectors now give Control Expertise and Drain Expertise, but no longer Shield Restoration and Hull Restoration), but each are now larger benefits than before. Fixed a translation bug that was causing a small amount of +Perception to appear on some Deflector Dishes. This should have been Control Expertise. Control Amplification now correctly triggers on Slow effects. All Ranks of Engineering Fleet now also improve Hull Regeneration (in addition to existing effects) Joined Symbiote (Trait) now also improves Hull Regeneration (in addition to existing effects) Inspirational Leader (Trait) has been translated to grant correct Skill Bonuses under the new system. Resolved an issue with Hull Regen values that was caused by the removal of Crew. Base regen values (zero Skills) should now match between Holodeck and Tribble.

Resolved an issue with Attack Pattern Omega that was causing the Defense buff to boosted by other Defense buffs.

The Skill System Revamp is still a work in progress:

There may be lingering mentions of “Crew” on reward packs and other items.

The Romulan Republic Admiralty Campaign is still a work in progress.

There is an issue occasionally causing maps to crash.

All Foundry functions have been shut off temporarily.

We will be bringing down the Tribble server for maintenance to apply a new update: ST.60.20160228a.5.
