The Conqueror Borg Suppressor is a level 55 to 80 Conqueror Borg hostile that only a Borg Sphere can fight: its Quantum Resonance Beam destroys any other player ship. For your Borg Sphere crew, the one hard rule is to keep Kathryn Janeway, Christopher Pike and Enterprise-E Picard off the ship, because its Evolutionary Assimilation ability destroys your ship if any of them is present. It always spawns as an Explorer in Assimilated systems at warp 320 to 6000 and drops 5★ to 7★ Broken Explorer Parts.
Borg Sphere crew for the Conqueror Borg Suppressor
Start with who not to bring. At every level from 55 to 80, Evolutionary Assimilation checks for Kathryn Janeway, Christopher Pike and Enterprise-E Picard, and if any of the three is present the Suppressor destroys your ship. Clear them off the Sphere before every run, including after you swap crews for other content.
Next, count your seats. The Borg Sphere opens officer slots as it levels: one at ship level 5, then more at levels 10, 20, 30, 40 and 45, with the seventh and last at ship level 55. A low-level Sphere is working with a short bench, so put your strongest damage officer in the captain’s chair first.
For the officers themselves, seat a captain that boosts weapon damage against hostiles, then fill the remaining slots with officers that add damage or mitigation. Mitigation matters more as you climb: from level 61 the Suppressor gains 225% Critical Damage, and from level 71 it also gains 25% Critical Chance, so its big hits land harder and more often. The Sphere’s own abilities do much of the work against this target, so the crew’s job is to keep the ship alive while those bonuses finish the fight. Named picks change with every officer release, so check the Officer Tier List for the current strongest options.
Why the Borg Sphere is the only ship that works
The Borg Sphere is an Epic Battleship built for this fight. Three always-active ship abilities target the Conqueror Borg Suppressor and its sister hostile, the Conqueror Borg Obliterator. Quantum Nullification Pulse disables their Resonance Beam abilities, which is how the Sphere survives the beam that deletes every other ship. Omicron Particle Charge raises the Sphere’s base damage against them by 1,450,000% at ship level 1, scaling to 12,000,000% at ship level 75. Apex Dispersion Field adds 50,000 Apex Barrier against them. The hull matchup also favors you, since Battleships beat Explorers and the Suppressor is an Explorer at every level.
How to beat the Conqueror Borg Suppressor
There is no hull to swap and no alternative ship: bring a repaired Borg Sphere with the banned officers removed. What changes as you climb is the Suppressor’s own buffs. Its Evolutionary Assimilation ability steps up through four ranks, adding Apex Barrier from level 57 and critical damage from level 61, so expect a clear step up in difficulty at level 61 and again at 71. Omicron Particle Charge scales with ship level, so level the Sphere before you move up a band.
| Levels | Abilities | What they do |
|---|---|---|
| 55 | Quantum Resonance Beam, Evolutionary Assimilation I | Destroys any ship that is not a Borg Sphere; destroys your ship if Kathryn Janeway, Christopher Pike or Enterprise-E Picard is present |
| 57, 59 | Quantum Resonance Beam, Evolutionary Assimilation II | Same Borg Sphere rule and officer ban, plus 10,000 Apex Barrier |
| 61–70 | Quantum Resonance Beam, Evolutionary Assimilation III | Same rules, plus 50,000 Apex Barrier and 225% Critical Damage |
| 71–80 | Quantum Resonance Beam, Evolutionary Assimilation IV | Same rules, plus 50,000 Apex Barrier, 225% Critical Damage and 25% Critical Chance |
Where to find the Conqueror Borg Suppressor
The Suppressor lives in Assimilated systems. Level 55 spawns across four of them at warp 320 (Assimilated Sirius, Sol, Tellar and Wolf), levels 57 and 59 have two systems each, and every level from 61 up sits in a single system. Warp climbs from 900 at level 61 to 6000 for level 80 in Assimilated Vulcan, so match your warp range to the band you can clear.
| Level | Warp | Systems |
|---|---|---|
| 55 | 320 | Assimilated Sirius, Assimilated Sol, Assimilated Tellar, Assimilated Wolf |
| 57 | 400 | Assimilated Andoria, Assimilated Denobula |
| 59 | 500 | Assimilated Altair, Assimilated Archer |
| 61 | 900 | Assimilated Vega |
| 63 | 1100 | Assimilated Teneebia |
| 65 | 1250 | Assimilated Riktor |

Rewards and what it drops
The Suppressor drops Broken Explorer Parts, and the star grade depends on the level band. Ship XP is a flat 957 per kill at every level, so the reason to climb is the better parts, not experience.
| Drop | Amount per kill | Levels | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5★ Broken Explorer Parts | 400–1,514 | 55–59 | Parts for building and upgrading 5★ Explorers |
| 6★ Broken Explorer Parts | 1,763–25,127 | 61–70 | Parts for building and upgrading 6★ Explorers |
| 7★ Broken Explorer Parts | 594–4,883 | 71–80 | Parts for building and upgrading 7★ Explorers |

Conqueror Borg Suppressor firing pattern
The Suppressor fires two weapon groups every round after a one-round warm-up. Its five Kinetic weapons are the volume threat and carry the higher 2x crit multiplier, while the single Energy weapon lands the biggest individual hit. Plan for steady pressure rather than one spike. These figures come from the lowest-level record and scale up with level.
| Weapon type | Count | Damage per shot | Fires | Crit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Energy | 1 | 29,029,945–35,480,785 | Every round | 10% (1.5x) |
| Kinetic | 5 | 12,095,725–14,783,755 | Every round | 10% (2x) |
The Borg in Star Trek
The Borg are a cybernetic collective from the Delta Quadrant that assimilates other species and technology into a single hive mind under the Borg Queen. Starfleet first met them when Q flung the Enterprise-D into their path, and they became the Federation’s defining threat through the massacre at Wolf 359 and Picard’s assimilation as Locutus. Voyager then spent years dodging the Collective on the long road home. In Star Trek Fleet Command, the Conqueror Borg are a late-game escalation of that threat that you meet on even terms only with Borg technology of your own.
Is the Conqueror Borg Suppressor worth grinding?
If you are building or upgrading Explorers at 5★ and above, yes. It is a steady source of Broken Explorer Parts, and the 61 to 70 band pays the largest amounts. It is gated content, so you need a Borg Sphere and the warp to reach the Assimilated systems. Keep Janeway, Pike and Enterprise-E Picard off the ship, level the Sphere before each new band, and farm the highest level it clears reliably. For the rest of the Collective’s targets, see the Borg hostiles hub.
