Mission The Price We Pay Overview

Why The Price We Pay Matters

At first glance, The Price We Pay looks like a simple travel mission with one hostile kill. In practice, it is a progression checkpoint.

Many players complete this mission because it helps with:

• Unlocking the next mission chain step
• Accessing deeper systems
• Earning travel path rewards
• Continuing progression toward The Abyss

If you are pushing late-game content, this mission is usually worth completing as soon as your ships can handle the warp requirements.

Mission Chain Order

If The Price We Pay is missing from your mission list, verify the chain order first.

1. Everything, Now
2. The Price We Pay
3. The Abyss

Chain missions often require the previous mission to be completed before the next one appears.

Mission The Price We Pay Walkthrough

The mission has three main objectives.

---

Step 1: Respond to the Distress Call

Travel to Klos.

Klos Location Notes

• Neutral space system
• Stufe 48
• Used for the first two objectives
• First major warp checkpoint in the mission

Many players first realize the mission is more difficult than expected when they cannot reach Klos.

Step 2: Stop the Hostile Ship

Destroy the hostile target in Klos.

Combat Notes

This is the only combat step in the mission.

Bring a ship designed for PvE combat with:

• Good survivability
• Reliable damage output
• Beamte suited for hostile grinding
• Manageable repair costs

Avoid sending a miner or underpowered travel ship.

Step 3: Track the Ship

Travel to Teranth.

Teranth Location Notes

• Romulan region system
• Level 50
• Final mission destination
• Highest warp requirement in mission

This is the most common point where players get stuck.

Mission Rewards

Are the Rewards Worth It?

4★ Uncommon Interceptor Parts

Helpful if you are actively upgrading interceptors, but not game-changing on their own.

Beta Sector Path Rewards

For many players, these are the real rewards.

Mission-based path unlocks can open routes needed for:

• Later missions
• Faster travel
• Additional progression systems

That means The Price We Pay often has more long-term value than the raw loot suggests.

Warp Requirements Explained

This mission causes confusion because the listed completion warp is lower than the actual objective warp requirements.

What This Means

Ignore the listed completion warp when preparing ships.

To finish the mission without getting stuck, plan for Warp 185.

Best Ships for The Price We Pay

The best ship depends on your progression level, but the winning formula is simple:

Prioritize a Ship That Can:

• Reach Warp 185
• Defeat level 48 hostiles efficiently
• Repair cheaply enough for repeat attempts

Avoid Using:

• Miners
• Cargo ships
• Ships with warp range but weak combat stats
• Glass-cannon builds that fail in hostile fights

If you must choose between warp range and damage, choose the ship that can complete both travel and combat requirements.

Common Problems and Fixes

Cannot Reach Klos

You need Warp 160.

Fixes

• Upgrade warp components
• Tier up the ship
• Use a higher-range vessel
• Improve research affecting warp

Cannot Reach Teranth

You need Warp 185.

This is the most common issue because many players can complete Klos objectives first, then stall at the final step.

Assimilated Ship Too Strong

Improve:

• Officer synergy
• Ship tier
• PvE research
• Damage output
• Defensive stats

Mission Does Not Appear

Check the following:

1. Completed Everything, Now
2. No active chain conflict in mission log
3. Correct ops/progression level
4. Mission already accepted and hidden in backlog

Expert Tips

Complete It As Soon As Warp Allows

This mission is often worth clearing immediately once you can reach Teranth because it advances chain progression.

Bring One Flexible Ship

The ideal ship can both travel and fight. Switching ships mid-chain wastes time.

Check Route Unlocks

If you appear to have enough warp but still cannot travel, verify you do not need additional path unlock progression.

Watch Repair Costs

Some players brute-force with expensive ships. A cheaper, efficient PvE ship can be the smarter option.
