Are you kidding? This is one of the most informative DOFF threads I have ever seen. Just skip past the OP and everything else is great information.

You just proved that you know nothing about the doff system. There is a commendation category you can easily farm without any effort with specific missions. But of course you don't know that, and don't even try to get this information from me. This isn't an how to, you're just proving you ignore many things about the doff system post after post.

No. This is extremely inefficient. But again I can't prove my point since I don't want to tell which assignments you can take for this. And farming them really take 15 minutes and some cheap purple doffs. You might have to invest a few millions in it but the CXP returns are definitely worth it.

No. Special projects can be used as an unlimited fleet credits generator, if you slot the colonists one. Colonists are really cheap and it will allow you to throw 600FC in it.

Not sure I understand why you won't tell him if it proves your point...?

Letting him in on the big DOFF secret doesn't make the missions suddenly become unavailable to you.

Of course, the likely reason you won't tell him is because you don't know what you are talking about. After your epic math fail on the OP, I'm not really shocked by that.

Variation on "screenshots or it didn't happen" - "Explain how you farm 10k CXP in 15 minutes or it didn't happen"

TO BOTH SIDES OF THIS DISCUSSION: can't you make valid and considered arguments for your position without taking blatent pot shots at each other?

Little digs here and there are amusing, and should not be taken personaly. Beyond that however, when every post becomes a snide rejection of the others position it gets very boring very fast.

Tone it down a bit or just drop it.

I know exactly which you are referring to. Recruitment. I've personally farmed the better part of 100k CXP that way. And it is arrogant and foolish of you as someone proven so thoroughly wrong to insult another poster by claiming they "know nothing about" the doff system.

Farming Recruitment through doffbreaking is very time consuming given the roster and XC cap, which is also why it is EC-positive: because it's so time consuming that players are willing to pay other players to do it for them.

You are again changing your premise, from doing FAs for FMs, to farming CXP via doff assignments for FMs, to farming CXP via doffbreaking for FMs. You're grasping at every straw trying to justify the fiction that is your claims. And I can think of only one reason why.

The naysayers and Trolls never fail. Attack the OP and confuse the post.

*smh*

Errrrrmmmmm I don't think you really get what this disscusion is about.

Near as I can tell, niether those arguing with the OP, or the OP are a fan of the system. For the most part, it has been an overheated discusion that needs to be dialed back a bit.

Yours is the first post in this thread I would classify as a pure "TROLL".

No. Try again.

I won't tell it because the devs are quick to nerf what works pretty well. And I don't want to loose my FM farm if I need it later. I don't mind loosing the fleet doffs though.

I'm not into guessing games. You made the claim, now substantiate it with proof.

If you had a legitimate interest in keeping your supposed doff farm secret, you would not have made the point nor even this thread. Suppose I had guessed correctly (as I believe I already have)? Would you have said, "You got me"? That would seem to defeat your claim. So I think it's most sensible, and consistent with what we have already seen, to believe that you have no sekrit perpetual doff machine.
