Bajoran Research is one branch of the Star Trek Fleet Command research tree. This page lists every research in it with what it does, the Operations level it unlocks at, the number of levels, the cost to max, the research time, and prerequisites, so you can plan your next unlock without digging through the tree in game.
Every bajoran research
All 25 research projects, in alphabetical order. None of them lists a building gate, a resource cost, a research timer or a prerequisite, so those columns read None or Instant on every row. What separates the projects is what they do and how many levels they have.

How Bajoran research works
Bajoran research is a small faction tree: 25 projects with 124 levels between them. It does not follow the pattern of the core trees, where each level costs resources, runs a timer and waits on your R&D Department. No Bajoran project has any of those gates, and no project depends on another, so there is no path through the tree to plan. The table is a menu: pick the projects that match what you do.
Bajoran research for hostile hunting
If you came here looking for Bajoran hostiles, they are the Jem’Hadar in Dominion space, and the Bajoran faction page covers where to farm them and how the loop works. Most of the hostile-focused research in this tree is aimed at the Dominion and the Jem’Hadar. These are the projects that pay off when you hunt:
| Research | Research levels | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Dominion Domination | 10 | Increases base damage dealt against Dominion hostiles |
| Prophets’ Prize | 5 | Increases loot rewards from Dominion hostiles |
| Prophets’ Reward | 5 | Increases Uncommon, Rare and Epic Dominion Solo Armada Credits dropped from Dominion Solo Armada targets |
| Quantum Torpedoes | 12 | Increases the kinetic damage of the Defiant vs Jem’Hadar Solo Armadas |
| Magnetic Field Optimisation | 12 | Increases the reload chance of the Defiant’s energy weapons vs Jem’Hadar Solo Armadas |
| Hostile Efficiency | 1 | Increases rewards from the daily Hostile Exchange chest |
Dominion Domination is the broadest of them, with 10 levels of extra damage against every Dominion hostile. Prophets’ Prize and Prophets’ Reward turn those same kills into more loot and more Dominion Solo Armada Credits. Quantum Torpedoes and Magnetic Field Optimisation, at 12 levels each, only help the Defiant against Jem’Hadar Solo Armadas. For where each hostile type spawns, use the hostile guide, and for the faction behind these targets, see the Dominion.
Bajoran research for combat and the economy
The rest of the tree splits between fights and your station. For player combat, Kira’s Sword and Lenaris’ Edge raise your critical hit damage and chance against players, while Bajor’s Advantage and Stubborn Defense lower your opponent’s. Kira’s Fist, Kira’s Fury, Bajor’s Rage and Shakaar’s Shield raise piercing, weapon damage, hull and shields in every fight, and Officer Training Drills raises all officer stats.
On the economy side, Bajoran Construction and Materials Trade Route make buildings cheaper, the three Bajoran refinery projects raise refinery rewards for G4 and G5 ore, gas and crystal, and Tetryon Abundance raises Tetryon capacity. Three one-level projects add daily value: Prophets’ Gift adds a Daily Goal chest with Syndicate XP and Bajoran badges, Prophets’ Tribute adds Ultra Recruit tokens to the 24h chest, and Hostile Efficiency improves the daily Hostile Exchange chest. Pagh Ascension increases the Bajoran reputation you gain; the faction reputation guide covers how that standing works.
