Bothersome Flies is a Star Trek Fleet Command mission where you help T’Rell reunite with Sulen by dealing with the Corvallen marauders harassing her mining colony. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but it needs warp 105 to complete, includes 10 hostiles of level 44 or higher and a Corvallen Mercenary near 5.9 million strength, and asks you to mine 1,750 4★ Raw Gas. The reward is 4★ Rare and Uncommon Refined Ore, and it unlocks Reunions and Remedies.
Bothersome Flies objectives
Five objectives, no choice split:
- Go to the source of the Corvallen marauders in Perralon 472. Location: Perralon 472.
- Defeat 10 hostiles of Level 44 or higher.
- Defeat the Corvallen Mercenary. Location: Perralon 472 (enemy strength about 5,867,534).
- Mine 1750 4★ Raw Gas.
- Deliver the Raw Gas to T’Rell’s mining colony on Delore. Location: New Canberra.
The first half is combat in Perralon 472. The second half is mining: you gather 1,750 4★ Raw Gas and deliver it to T’Rell’s colony on Delore.
Where and what warp
You can accept it at warp 1. Warp 105 is needed to complete it.
The listed recommended level is 1. The level 44 hostiles, the 5.9 million strength mercenary and access to 4★ gas nodes are the real requirements.

Missions before and after
| Mission | Recommended level | Warp to complete | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Genealogy (before) | 1 | 95 | 50 each of 3★ Uncommon Refined Crystal, Ore and Gas |
| Bothersome Flies | 1 | 105 | 31 4★ Rare Refined Ore, 110 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore |
| Reunions and Remedies (after) | 1 | 95 | 2,500 Latinum, 250,000 4★ Raw Crystal, 250,000 4★ Raw Gas |
Bothersome Flies has the longest reach of the three. Reunions and Remedies pays back far more 4★ Raw Gas than you mine here.
Tips
Start mining early. The gas step comes after the fights, but you can send a mining ship out while your combat ship handles Perralon 472, so both halves progress together.
Repair before the mercenary. It is far stronger than the level 44 hostiles you clear beforehand.
Delore is in New Canberra, the last stop. After the mercenary is down, the rest of the mission is mining and one delivery, so a mining ship with warp 105 can finish it without your combat ship.
Hold on to the gas you mine until the delivery step is active, so it counts when you reach Delore.
