The Baelosian Miner is a Federation Survey-class hostile you fight in Federation space from level 50 to 59. It spawns only as a survey ship, so it barely fights back, which makes it an easy target for any warship crewed for damage. Kills drop 5-star Broken Survey Parts along with Romulan and Klingonisch reputation, while costing you Federation reputation. Match its warp range of 185 to 355 and head to a system near your own level.
How to beat the Baelosian Miner
The Baelosian Miner appears only as a Survey ship, so there is no counter class to swap between as you climb the levels. Survey hulls are the weakest in combat, and any Interceptor, Battleship, or Explorer built for your level will out-damage it. Bring whichever combat ship you already fly for grinding and focus on weapon damage.
Crew for damage against hostiles: a captain that raises weapon damage against hostiles, backed by Offiziere that add more damage or mitigation. Officer picks shift with the meta, so check the current Officer Tier List for the best seats at your level rather than locking into one crew. Cadet crews suit far lower levels than this one, so by level 50 you will want stronger officers in those seats.
The Baelosian Miner carries one always-active ability, Plausible Deniability, which restores a share of its total shield health across the first five rounds of combat, scaling with level: 10% at levels 50 to 52, 15% at 53 to 55, and 20% at 56 to 59. A slow fight lets it keep topping its shields back up, so a harder-hitting crew clears it faster. Because a Survey hull deals little damage in return, the ability mostly stretches the fight out rather than putting your ship at real risk.
Once your ship out-gears the level you are farming, these fights are safe to run back to back, which suits a survey-parts or reputation grind. If you are clearing the higher spawns, remember the warp cost jumps to 355, so bring a ship with the range to reach them.
Where to find the Baelosian Miner
The Baelosian Miner clusters in Federation systems across the mid-50 level band. The lower-level spawns sit at warp 185 and spread across several systems, while the highest levels pull back to a single system at warp 355. As the level rises the warp cost climbs and the spread of systems narrows, until only Areal holds the level 58 and 59 spawns. Match the warp cost to your ship’s range and pick a system that matches the level you want to farm.

Rewards and what it drops
Destroying a Baelosian Miner pays out survey-ship materials and faction reputation. Because it flies under the Federation banner, killing it lowers your Federation reputation while raising your standing with the Romulans and Klingons, so grind it only when you want to shift reputation in that direction. Higher-level spawns award more ship XP, climbing from 3,000 at level 50 to 10,822 at level 59. Broken Survey Parts feed survey-ship builds and tier upgrades, so this is a steady source when you are working on a mining or survey hull.
| Ablegen | What it is |
|---|---|
| 5★ Broken Survey Parts | A 5-star material used to build and upgrade survey ships |
| Romulan Points | Romulan faction reputation, which raises your standing with the Romulans |
| Klingon Points | Klingonenfraktion reputation, which raises your standing with the Klingons |
| Federation Points | Federation reputation, which drops when you destroy this Federation ship |
Baelosian Miner stats
Stats vary by hull variant and climb steeply with level, so a level 59 Baelosian Miner is far tougher than a level 50 one.
| Ebene | Total strength | Hull HP | Shield HP | Angriff | Verteidigung | Ship XP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 14,598,385 | 6,863,221 | 7,144,245 | 4,941,732 | 2,652,920 | 3,000 |
| 55 | 97,483,790 | 45,830,608 | 47,707,207 | 32,999,457 | 17,715,425 | 7,070 |
| 59 | 253,311,286 | 119,090,673 | 123,967,008 | 85,748,971 | 46,033,475 | 10,822 |
What the Baelosian Miner is
The Baelosian Miner is one of the Baelos region hostiles in Star Trek Fleet Befehl, not a ship from the shows. It flies a Survey hull under the Federation banner and works the Federation systems around Baelos, which is where the name comes from. There is no Baelosian Miner in Star Trek canon; it is game-original content built for this stretch of the map, so treat it as a farming target rather than a piece of the wider Star Trek story.
Is the Baelosian Miner worth grinding?
The Baelosian Miner earns its place if you need Broken Survey Parts or want to push Romulan and Klingon reputation, and its weak Survey hull makes it a low-risk farm for ship XP from level 50 up. Skip it when you are protecting your Federation standing, since every kill costs Federation reputation. When you do run it, match your warp to the level you want and bring a combat ship crewed for damage.
