The Assimilated Klingon Scout is a Borg-assimilated hostile that roams Delta Quadrant space at levels 39, 45, and 54. It spawns only as a Battleship, so an Interceptor counters it cleanly. You will find it in the Shal’ika, Misalup, and Neara systems at warp 165 to 700. The level 45 and 54 spawns drop 4-star Broken Battleship Parts. Bring an Interceptor with a weapon-damage crew and it goes down fast.
How to beat the Assimilated Klingon Scout
STFC combat runs on a class triangle: Interceptors beat Schlachtschiffe, Battleships beat Explorers, and Explorers beat Interceptors. Vermessungsschiffe sit outside that triangle and barely fight. The Assimilated Klingonisch Scout always appears as a Battleship hull, so the class that holds the advantage over it is the Interceptor. Fly an Interceptor you have leveled for the band you plan to farm and you get the class bonus on every kill.
As a Battleship the scout hits hard, so mitigation earns its keep alongside raw firepower. The shield and hull HP climb sharply across the three spawns, so bring enough damage to break through in a few rounds. At level 39 you punch through about 2.2 million shield HP and 3.2 million hull HP. By level 54 those figures jump past 69 million and 101 million, so match your ship to the exact spawn you want rather than assuming one build clears them all. An Interceptor both returns extra damage from the class bonus and holds up better against a Battleship’s heavy attack.
Crew matters as much as hull. Put a captain in the chair who boosts weapon damage against hostiles, then fill the other seats with Offiziere that add damage or reduce incoming fire. If you are clearing the level 39 spawn early, the cadet crew of Cadet Kirk with Cadet Spock and Cadet Uhura still adds enough to help, though it runs short of power by level 54. For current picks, check the Officer Tier List. Crews shift with the meta, so treat any named crew as a starting point.
Where to find the Assimilated Klingon Scout
The Assimilated Klingon Scout spawns at three separate levels, each in a single system. The level 39 target sits in Shal’ika at warp 165, level 45 moves out to Misalup at warp 225, and the level 54 version is far out in Neara at warp 700. The warp jump between spawns is steep, so if your ship tops out at warp 165 you are limited to Shal’ika until you extend your range. Pick the level you want, park in its system, and clear targets as they respawn.
| Ebene | Warp | Systeme |
|---|---|---|
| 39 | 165 | Shal’ika |
| 45 | 225 | Misalup |
| 54 | 700 | Neara |
Rewards and what it drops
The main reason to farm this scout is 4-star Broken Battleship Parts, which drop from the level 45 and 54 spawns. You use those parts to build and repair mid-tier Battleships, so this hostile is a handy stop when you are working on a Battleship hull. The level 39 spawn is not a parts farm, so treat it as a lighter fight rather than a salvage run. Ship XP scales with level, from about 1,100 at level 39 to roughly 6,150 at level 54, so the higher spawns give far more toward your next ship level per kill. If you are chasing parts rather than XP, the level 45 spawn in Misalup is the gentler of the two that drop them. The strength jump from level 45 to 54 is large, from about 11.5 million to 161 million, so most players stay on the Misalup spawn for parts until their Interceptor can handle the top target in Neara.

The Borg in Star Trek
The Borg are a cybernetic collective from the Delta Quadrant that assimilates other species and their technology into a single hive mind linked by a shared consciousness. Assimilated people become drones, their bodies fitted with mechanical implants and their will erased. The Collective has no ordinary leader, though the Borg-Königin speaks and acts on its behalf. An Assimilated Klingon Scout is what the name says: a Klingon scout vessel caught by the Borg and rebuilt to serve the hive, its crew turned into drones. In Star Trek Fleet Befehl, these converted ships appear as roaming hostiles you hunt for their salvage.
Is the Assimilated Klingon Scout worth grinding?
This scout earns its place when you need 4-star Broken Battleship Parts or the ship XP from its higher spawns. As a Battleship hull it has a clear counter, so an Interceptor clears it fast and keeps repair costs low. Farm the level 45 or 54 spawn for parts, or drop to level 39 in Shal’ika if you just want an easier fight and some XP. Match your warp to the level, bring an Interceptor, and clear one system on repeat. Because each level lives in a single system, the scout is easy to camp once you are in range, and respawns come fast enough to keep a farming run steady.
