Nanoprobes

## Details

When killing the borg tactical probes you receive Intert Nanoprobes - Inert Nanoprobes can be refined. Once in the refinery tab, you can choose between 2 types of refined Nanoprobes, “Active Nanoprobes” which are used to promote Borg officers or “Charged Nanoprobes” which are used to tier up the Vi'dar or other purchases via the premium  event store.

Dispatch your strongest ships to gather as many Inert **Nanoprobes** as possible, as warping to the system requires Transwarp Cells.

Note – Cancelling warp still consumes your **Transwarp Cells** so beware when travelling to the borg systems

Once you have collected your plethora of **Nanoprobes** from the Borg systems, head to your refinery to refine your Nanoprobes. Once in the refinery tab you can choose between 2 types of refined Nano Probes, **“Active Nanoprobes”** which are used to upgrade Borg officers or **“Charged Nanoprobes”** which are used for upgrading the Vi'Dar or Faction Reputation credits.

### Transwarp Cells

**Q & A via the Events/Borg Arc page** (and STFC Q&A)

* You can't get the transwarp cells if you haven't built the Vi'dar but if you have the Cells you can go to the systems.
* Also - You can only have 9 transwarp cells in your inventory at a time
* The biggest reason for gating this is so that the borg systems are not filled with players just trying to PvP
* Any ship can go into borg space if you have transwarp cells

* Q. Where do we get the transwarp cells
* A. Transwarp cells can be acquired from free gifts given to you every day or through events or through the store - You can only acquire these cells if you've built the Vi'dar [Ops 25 Required to build it]

* Q. So the gift box and events give Transwarp cells, how do we get them when event ends?
* A. Gift box will still be there along with more events for the Borg.

* Q. Are transwarp cells for all ships in order to be able to visit borg systems ? which current events ?
* A. Yes but you can only obtain them once you've built the Vi'dar

* Q. Are limited by number of transwarp cells? so either you fly one ship 9 times or or any combination of ships until transwarps are consumed?
* A. You can use as many transwarp cells. Each warp will pop off a cell [9 Transwarp Cells maximum in inventory though]

* Q. Why 9, everywhere else says 8?
* A. An update allows you to have a maximum of 9 transwarp cells. If you have 7 transwarp cells, you will still receive your daily allotment of 2 which will increase the total to 9. If you have 8 transwarp cells then you will not receive any additional cells until one is consumed.

* Q. If we use a transwarp cell to reach one Borg system but then want to travel to a different Borg system, will we need to use another coil?
* A. you can't go from borg system to borg system. they're not connected. so you leave a borg system and to enter a new system you need to pay the toll
