IDIC 10: The Roads Less Traveled opens the final three-mission story of the IDIC series, and in-game it is listed as The Roads Less Traveled Part 1. Q’s experiments have spun out of control and the Origin Sector is coming apart, so he takes you on a trip outside time to recruit Wesley Crusher. The game lists a recommended level of 61, the mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 53 to complete, and it ends with a fight against the U.S.S. Stargazer in Vega. Rewards include a 3 Day Peace Shield and 500 Consulate Quantum Cores.
IDIC 10: The Roads Less Traveled Part 1
The story line asks you to help Q save the Origin Sector from his experiments. Q believes Crusher can repair space-time, but first he has to persuade him, and he uses you to do it.
- Find out where Q is taking you, in Kaus Borealis.
- Defeat 5 hostiles of Level 16 or higher.
- Meet Crusher at Starfleet Academy, in Sol.
- See what Crusher might have become, in Vega.
- Destroy the U.S.S. Stargazer, in Vega (enemy strength ~2,618,077,029).
You start in Kaus Borealis, clear five low-level hostiles, meet Crusher at Sternenflotten-Akademie in Sol and then follow Q to Vega. The last objective is the only named fight: the Stargazer, listed at about 2.6 billion strength. There is no choice split. Warp to complete: 53.
Rewards: 3,200 Σ-Parsteel, 1 3 Day Peace Shield, 39,000 6★ Raw Kristall, 500 Consulate Quantum Cores.
Finishing this mission opens IDIC 11: The Roads Less Traveled.

Tips for completing IDIC 10: The Roads Less Traveled
Warp 53 is the highest range in the IDIC series so far, so check that the ship you send can reach Vega before you start. The route runs from Kaus Borealis to Sol and on to Vega.
The five hostiles of level 16 or higher are easy at level 61 and can be picked off anywhere. Save your combat ship’s health for the Stargazer at roughly 2,618,077,029 strength, which closes the mission.
The 3 Day Peace Shield is a useful reward to hold on to. You do not have to use it immediately.
Are the IDIC 10: The Roads Less Traveled rewards worth it?
Yes. The 3 Day Peace Shield and 500 Consulate Quantum Cores are the standouts, and 3,200 Σ-Parsteel plus 39,000 6★ Raw Crystal are solid at level 61. The cost is one fight at about 2.6 billion strength and a longer trip than earlier IDIC missions. It also starts the story that wraps up the series.
