Getting the last few renowns is slow going for me as well.

It does seem as if the "Support colonization efforts" mission pops up more frequently. I've had 3 of those crit already, so at this rate I'll have got all the available purples before I achieve the remaining renowns! I'm also swimming in refugees.

Something happened in the patch 3 weeks ago that made 7/7 an extremely rare event.

I really, really wish that we could get a serious review of the math.

Waiting for 3 weeks to get 2 missions after it only took 5 weeks to get every mission in 12 other sectors is a little excessive.

I have had no problem locating 4-6 in sector space. I think the increased frequency of 1-3 has given some players the impression that the next mission should always be available at completion of the previous assignment. I understand the permanent availability of 1/7 and the commonly available 2/7, but around 3 it should be slowed down a bit.

Also, it has been my impression that the Colonization Chains are primarily sector assignments with a secondary dice roll to access them through the bridge officers. If I am wrong about that, that could explain a lot on why we aren't hearing of the 7s even when they are available.

The other day I visited no less than 30 different ships in search of a 7/7...NO JOY! Bare minimum 30 different Ops officers and the sector space, and no 7/7...I'm sorry but its broken.

I'll say it again ...

I suggest two things:

1 Join DoffJobs chat channel.

2. visit the DoffJobs Tracker

Completed 6/7 in Rolor, and as before ~2 days later got my Renown mission. So far, for me at least, the Renowns appear around 2 days after the preceding assignment is completed.

The problem is that the missions are not popping, not that people are not doing what they need to get it.

1. Again, already a member

2. As more and more users finish it, they no longer see it. I say at the HC for 2 hours the other day asking to be invited to anyone and everyone's ship that passed by. Out of 20 or so invites, no Ops had it. Kind of ridiculous for a mission that according to the sheet is common (Only assuming that due to its in white text and other rarities have there respective colors).
