The Third Pillar is a late-game story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command about deploying the third Conduit Pillar in the New Reykjavik system. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but it needs warp 160 to complete, 15 hostiles of level 46 or higher, and a win against a Convergence Militant at roughly 7,227,080 strength. The reward is 270,000,000 Parsteel and 120 4★ Ungewöhnlich Battleship Parts, and it unlocks The Fourth Pillar. Big numbers on both sides.
The Third Pillar objectives
Es gibt vier Ziele und keine Verzweigung:
- Travel to New Reykjavik. Location: New Reykjavik.
- Besiegen Sie 15 Feinde der Stufe 46 oder höher.
- Defeat the Convergence Militant. Location: New Reykjavik. Enemy strength is roughly 7,227,080.
- Deliver the civilian crew to safety on Riannon. Location: New Reykjavik.
Everything named happens in New Reykjavik. The hostile grind has no fixed location, so any level 46 or higher hostiles count. The Convergence Militant is the one scripted fight, and the civilian crew delivery to Riannon closes the mission.
Wo und welcher Warp
No pickup system is listed. The mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 160 to complete, since New Reykjavik is where every located step happens.
The recommended level is listed as 1. That figure is not a useful guide here: warp 160, level 46 hostiles and a 7.2 million strength enemy are the real bar.
The Third Pillar rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|
| Parsteel | 270,000,000 |
| 4★ Uncommon Battleship Parts | 120 |
Completing it unlocks the next mission, The Fourth Pillar.

The Third Pillar is the middle of a run of Conduit Pillar Missionen. Current game data for its neighbours:

| The Fourth Pillar | 150 | Travel to Muhg and deploy the final Pillar over Stoklasa | 50 4★ Uncommon Refined Erze |
The Third Pillar has the highest warp and the heaviest combat of the three, and the largest payout. The Fourth Pillar that follows has no listed fight.
Tips
Clear the hostile grind with a ship built for it. Fifteen level 46 or higher hostiles take a while, and any system with the right hostiles will do, so pick a spot close to your usual route.
Save your best ship for the Convergence Militant. At roughly 7,227,080 strength it matches the Arkonian Soldier from The Second Pillar, so if you took the fight path there, you already know what it takes.
The 120 4★ Uncommon Battleship Parts go toward battleship upgrades, which makes this mission especially useful for battleship pilots. The run of Pillar missions starts with The First Pillar, and other missions by level are on the Missionsleitfaden.
