Hello There Space Clammers!
Star Trek has taken over Quahog! A Starfleet Shuttle has conveniently crashed in Quahog and apparently someone decided that the future of the Galaxy should rest on Peter’s shoulders. (cause that sounds like a smart idea!) It’s your mission to help Peter save the Galaxy, after all it’d be a pretty boring game if he did it by himself!
Along the way you’ll encounter characters from the USS Enterprise that you’ll have to save (you know save by collecting STUFF). The fourth Star Trek character you’ll encounter in the event is Locutus, Captain Picard that the Borg have taken over
Let’s take a look at this Borg and just what happens when you unlock him in your Quahog!
As mentioned above Locutus is Captain Picard that the Borg have taken over on board the USS Enterprise, and you’ll find him in The Bridge. As with (almost) all characters in TQFS in order to unlock him you’ll have to collect STUFF.
Here’s a look at what you’ll need to make Locutus a permanent addition to your Quahog:
10 Duct Tape (Extra Rare)– Earned By: Clear Borgs OR Get from Riker’s Quarters OR Make Guinan Mix Space Drinks
40 Batteries (Common)- Earned By: Complete Cespoolus using the Transporter OR Make Bonnie Chug a Bottle of Wine OR Make Starfleet Lois Get Frisky int he Tubes
10 Scrap Metal (Uncommon)- Earned By: Make Riker Play a Round of Poker OR Make Joe Raid Personal Weapons Stash OR Make Herbert Be a Peeping Tom
35 Laser Pointers (Rare)- Earned By: Blow Up PeterCraft in the Phaser Battle OR Make Bathrobe Quagmire Start the Flash Frenzy
Currently Locutus is not associated with a character set. And does not really have a questline associated with him. However, he is required to complete the A Ship Without Picard questline…which you can view here.
Locutus also comes with a complete set of tasks! Tasks that will help you earn more Dilithium Crystals, the event currency for Star Trek. So let’s take a look at Locutus’ tasks:
| Task | Length | Earns | Location | Level |
| Pick a Metal Wedgie | 2hrs | 10  2  |
Enterprise | 2 |
| Play with Borg Kitten | 4hrs | 15 3 |
Visual/Enterprise | 1 |
| Figure Out How to Pee | 6hrs | 20 4 |
Enterprise | 2 |
| Drink Borg Tea | 8hrs | 25 5 |
Visual/Enterprise | 2 |
| Mourn Missing Hand | 16hrs | 40 7 |
Enterprise | 2 |
Just for fun, here are some of his Phrases…
“Resistance is Futile”
“I am Locutus of Borg”
“You will become one with the Borg”
And that my friends completes the character profile for Locutus!
What are your thoughts on Locutus? Have you unlocked him yet? Thoughts on his dialogue? How about his tasks? Any tasks you wish he had that he doesn’t currently? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!

Sorry, sort of a noob so I apologise for my question. I unlocked Locutus but I really want to get Picard. What will I have to do to get him?
LikeLike
No apology needed, always happy to help.
You will need to collect the items necessary to create him in the Replicator. Once you have all the items collected, you tap on create. Then you will have a costume you can put on Locutus to turn him back to Picard.

So, I am trying to unolock Data and I tapped the cat food to see who drops it and one of the tasks is Locutus’ drink Borg tea, which he is currently doing but when I tap Locutus it shows that there is a chance to drop a grey shirt for stewie. Has anyone else reported this? I haven’t noticed which item the task actually drops, do you think it it just a visual glitch?

I still need 9 laser pointers, and though getting those is coming along nicely (now that the drop changed), I worry about being able to get the other characters. I still don’t have Lois, either, though I’m very close. I just wonder if I’m too behind. I’m going to keep plugging away, but those space condoms look very intimidating now after the laser pointer drops.

Why not make this a skin for Patrick Stewart. Why not give him drops? He’ll probably be useful next phase I’m guessing.

For all the work it took to unlock him, you would think he would have tasks that rewarded you with more than just crystals! From what I have read, I myself am not a star trek fan, he was an enemy of the borgs, so why isn’t one of his tasks fighting them alongside Troi?
LikeLike
I figured this may make understanding the direction this is going by explaining this a bit. Locutus wasn’t an enemy to the Borg, he was a representative. Once they recaptured him and Data was able to create a link to him and the Borg Collective. Doing this enabled what was left of Captain Picard to reemerge and Picard helped Data put the Borg to “sleep”. This was probably the best season finale and premiere of the entire series. If you wanna check it out, go find the episodes ‘The Best of Both Worlds’ Part 1 and 2.

Enemy in the sense that they sought him out after leaving. The Borg Queen REALLY wanted him back. But more so that ALL humankind was enemy to the Borg. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE! YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED. 😉

Don’t know if this is the right place to post but I haven’t seen a post specifically related to “drops”- insomuch as every one just venting on every thread ever posted since the event began.
Anyway-was curious to know how the addict population is earning most of their energy: life support, transporter, phaser….
Are most of you taking room swapping for the guaranteed drop (like me)? Or have you non swapping folks out there noticed whether the chance drops of room payouts (every 2-6 hours) to be paying off? If you’ve collected via the room drops vs swaps would you call the drops rare or common or somewhere in the middle?
Your thoughts Bunny? And again I apologize if I placed this post in the wrong thread.

Hello! First I want to say thank you for all your hard work girls! Alrighty, so I’ve been playing this event since it started but I’m like a week behind even though i check the game constantly. I haven’t gotten this behind in an event so far, so i feel like I may be doing something wrong. I don’t have Locutus or Starfleet Lois and I’m not even close to unlocking the Sick Bay. I’ve also been reading comments saying that players have a lot of dilithium crystals where I have only gone past 2,000 but then I need to use them and my count goes down again. Are there any strategies that anyone has found to be useful (like in getting the crystals, the yellow energy, or the drop items)? I’m just worried I won’t be able to even finish the event. Thank you again! Oh and I’m on Starfleet level 6 (which i think most players are on).

I thought they learned to give the characters item dropping tasks right away, instead of fixing it a week later…

I hope that next phase TinyCo will add a task for Lotucus that will help with drops. I really feel that all of the event characters that we have worked so hard to unlock, should have at least a chance drop, of some hard to get item.
I very much appreciate them changing the premium characters to always drops, but feel they should also reward the freemium players who may not be able to afford clams, and often have to work harder to get rare items.

Having Locutus by himself, it allows you ANOTHER Character to send on separate quests while Patrick is doing other things Gives options of multiple Characters of him interacting. 😉

kind of regret working and focusing so hard to get him since he doesn’t really do much. I could have worked toward Beverly instead.

The Drop rate for this event his horrible for me. I just nearly gave up on this event being complete as a free player.

Locutus was a main enemy of the Borg so it’s good to see him included. It’s just a pity that, after spending so much time and effort unlocking him, he then becomes pretty useless in the event itself. Will that change going forward? We’ll see 😀

I’m hoping for him to do something useful once we de-borg him because right now he is completely useless. Still think Locutus/Picard should be a costume for Patrick Stewart.

I don’t see how they could get through this event and not give us Cpt. Picard. The crew would be incomplete if they did that. My guess is that they have accepted having two Stewarts in the game, and one will be Picard w a Borg skin as a bonus.
