===Skill System Revamp=== * The Skill System has been revamped to simplify the system and help players make better choices when choosing skills for their captains. * All references to “Skill Points” have been changed to “Experience Points” as these are no longer spent on Skills, but simply gained to increase levels. ** Players will gain “Space Points” and “Ground Points” which will be spent to purchase Skills. ** Players will earn 1 Space Point each level, starting at level 5 and ending at level 50 (total = 46 Space Points). ** Players will earn 1 Ground Point every 5 levels, starting at level 5 and ending at level 50 (total = 10 Ground Points). * Every Skill Node in the new system costs either 1 Space Point or 1 Ground Point to purchase. ** There are 110 Skill Nodes in total, separated as 90 Space and 20 Ground. * Space Skills are separated into Tiers, each of which requires a certain number of Space Points spent in any of the previous Tiers. ** Ground Skills do not have Tier requirements, but some Ground Skills have prerequisites. * Purchasing Skills will also grant players progress on new Unlock Paths. ** Once earned, Unlocks do not cost Space Points or Ground Points to activate. ** Some Unlocks require players to make a choice between two different Unlocks before either will be active. ** Some Skills from the previous system have been moved to these Unlock Paths. ** Unlock Paths are also how players will earn new Bridge Officer Training Manuals. ** Space Skills have 3 separate Unlock Paths, related to purchasing Skills in each of the 3 Profession categories:Engineering, Science or Tactical. ** Ground Skills have only a single Unlock Path. * Spending 24 or more Space Points in a single Profession will unlock a powerful new “Ultimate Ability” which can be further enhanced through the Unlock Paths. * Upon logging in for the first time after this update, player’s skills will automatically be reset. ** All players will have one free respec opportunity. ** Future skill retrains will cost a standard Retrain Token.
