A New World, A Violent World is a level 40 Discovery story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you investigate the site of a battle and end up chasing Harry Mudd. It starts at warp 1 and needs warp 70 to complete, with the story moving from Stradania to Balduk. The main cost is a 750,000 Dilithium donation to repair the Discovery’s warp drive. The reward is 17 8 Hour Speed Ups, 70 3★ Uncommon Refined Ore and 700 3★ Interceptor Parts, and it unlocks the next part of the story.
A New World, A Violent World objectives
There are six objectives and no choice split:
- Investigate the Klingon signal. Location: Stradania.
- Follow Mudd’s warp path. Location: Balduk.
- Capture Mudd. Location: Balduk.
- Repair the Discovery’s warp drive with 750,000 Dilithium.
- Defeat 10 hostiles of level 39 or higher.
- Escape!
The opening leg is investigation. A Klingon signal in Stradania leads you onto Mudd‘s trail, and the warp path takes you to Balduk, where you capture him. No enemy strength is listed for the capture, so it plays as a story step rather than a scripted battle.
The back half is about getting out. First you pay 750,000 Dilithium to repair the Discovery’s warp drive. Then you clear 10 hostiles of level 39 or higher, which can be done in any system with qualifying targets. The final objective is simply to escape, and it closes the mission.
Where and what warp
The mission has no pickup system and becomes available at warp 1. Completing it needs warp 70, which covers the flights to Stradania and Balduk. The recommended level is 40, and the hostile kill step asks for targets at level 39 or higher, so a level 40 player can farm them without leaving familiar space.

A New World, A Violent World is offered in 4 versions, at recommended levels 3, 12, 26 and 40. The story is the same in each, but the objectives, systems, warp and rewards change with the version. The walkthrough above covers the level 40 version.
| Recommended level | Systems | Warp to complete | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | No set system | 1 | 2 5 Minute Speed Up, 34 Tritanium, 12 1★ Battleship Parts |

How it compares with nearby Discovery missions
The missions around this one share the level 40 recommendation but climb steadily in warp. Current data for two of them:
| Mission | Warp to complete | Main cost or fight | Choice split |
|---|---|---|---|
| One of Our Own | 56 | USS Chaloner (about 4.34M strength), 8M Tritanium donation | Yes |
| A New World, A Violent World | 70 | 750,000 Dilithium donation, 10 hostile kills | No |
| The Devil You Know | 80 | Tal Shiar agent (about 3.49M strength) | Yes |
This mission is the only one of the three with no scripted fight, which makes it the easiest to clear once the warp is in reach.
Tips
Stockpile the Dilithium before you start. The 750,000 donation blocks everything after it, and it is easier to have the full amount ready than to stall halfway through the mission.
Farm the 10 hostiles close to Balduk. The kill objective comes straight after the capture, and staying in the area avoids a long empty flight.
The 17 8 Hour Speed Ups are the headline here, worth 136 hours of timer reduction between them. The 700 3★ Interceptor Parts are only useful if you are upgrading an interceptor, so check your fleet before spending them.
