 * Zen Buyout Option:
 * For players interested in instantly completing the the Borg Resurgence Event, we will be offering an updated method for buying out.
 * Within the new Event UI, an option will be presented that allows you to purchase the remaining progress that you need, for a scaling amount of Zen.
 * A Second Chance:
 * Progress after the Event has ended will remain in an all new Second Chance interface, allowing the option to buyout rewards long after the Event has expired.
 * Cyclical Modulation Ground Weaponry:
 * Cyclical Modulation Ground Weaponry pack is a new reward for completing the The Borg Resurgence Event on 14 different days.
 * These weapons have standardized primary and secondary firing modes, while their unique aspect lies in the tertiary firing mode.
 * These weapons utilize a “Cyclic Modulation” ability in this slot.
 * Activating Cyclic Modulation causes the weapon to change what energy type it is firing.
 * This cycle proceeds along the following cycle:
 * Phaser -> Disruptor -> Plasma -> Tetryon -> Polaron -> Antiproton -> Phaser (etc.)
 * Each time these weapons have their energy type cycled, they will also gain multiple charges of a special penetration buff that can bypass a portion of enemies’ shields and damage resistances.
 * Cyclical Modulation Weaponry also have brand new weapon appearances never previously available.

 * Legacy Progress:
 * Veteran players that have participated in previous Featured TFOs may still be in possession of multiple “Featured TFO Commendation” items, which are no longer used in the new Event System.
 * Players that still have these will be able to turn them in for Daily Progress and Event Campaign Progress.
 * Each upcoming eligible event will have an option to Apply Legacy Progress to the requirements present.
 * For those of you who had past Featured TFO projects still slotted in the old Event Reputation UI, those projects will be auto-completed, granting you the rewards.
