# 1 So Does Romulan Boff "Covert Operative" Trait, Like, Work?

I bought a Romulan tactical boff with Covert Operative. It's supposed to give 2.5% crit in space combat, but my space stats tooltip (in tactical space, of course) show no difference.

Is it working, or is this the next, uh, Leadership?

TBH I hope it works just so I can have a bit more diversity on my bridge. And let's face it, DS9 would have been more interesting if T'Rul became a regular.

We've recently uncovered a bug that is limiting the functionality of species-specific Traits in space combat. In essence, unless you're the same species as the Bridge Officer in question, you can't benefit from a Species-specific Bridge Officer trait (like Covert Operative or Leadership).

The Trait itself functions fine, but we're experiencing issues with them propagating properly to your Captain.

We hope to have this cleared up in the very near future.

So traits will actually mean something again? That'd be nice. Now I have to decide if I want to run a full efficient crew, or switch one out for the 2.5% crit bonus.

I don't get it. Efficient and Veteran work fine.

Since season 6 was released, I consistently complained that Efficient was rendered useless and would just barely add one point of energy even when the power was set to 25... No one seemed to agree....

Edit: I remember it adding like 3 points... not 1

725 x 102 (or current exchange rate) DL = 73950 DL <- can you earn that per hour in game?

When selecting a efficient boff, how much power does it add when your power level is at 25?

I was waiting for a statement on this issue for weeks. Thanks Borticus! I hope this will be solved soon.
