IDIC 11: The Roads Less Traveled is the second of the three Roads Less Traveled missions in the IDIC series, and in-game it is listed as The Roads Less Traveled Part 2. Q shows Wesley Crusher an alternative 2401 where he never left with The Traveler and lives on Alpha Centauri with Robin Lefler. The game lists a recommended level of 61, the mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 47 to complete, and there are no fights at all. Rewards are 1,300 Σ-Tritanium, 1,100 Trait XP, 56,000 6★ Rohgas and 500 Consulate Luminous Cores.
IDIC 11: The Roads Less Traveled Part 2
The story line says Q won’t let Wesley Crusher escape so easily. This mission is a domestic detour: you visit the alternative Crusher’s home, fetch Dilithium for a gift and set up a dinner with Lefler.
- Visit Alpha Centauri.
- Go to Crusher’s home, in Alpha Centauri.
- Source Crusher’s Dilithium, in Babel.
- Mine 15 Dilithium for Crusher’s gift.
- Deliver Crusher’s Dilithium, in Alpha Centauri.
- Take Crusher to dinner with Lefler, in Alpha Centauri.
Everything happens in Alpha Centauri apart from the trip to Babel, where you source the Dilithium. You then mine 15 Dilithium, bring it back and finish with the dinner. There is no choice split and no combat. Warp to complete: 47.
Rewards: 1,300 Σ-Tritanium, 1,100 Trait XP, 56,000 6★ Raw Gas, 500 Consulate Luminous Cores.
Finishing this mission opens IDIC 12: The Roads Less Traveled, the finale of the IDIC series.

Tips for completing IDIC 11: The Roads Less Traveled
Send a survey ship. The only task that takes real time is mining 15 Dilithium, and there is nothing to fight, so a miner that can reach warp 47 can do the whole mission on its own.
The mining objective comes right after you source the Dilithium in Babel. If you can, mine the 15 Dilithium on the same trip before heading back to Alpha Centauri, so you are not flying back and forth.
Use this mission to repair and prepare your combat ship. IDIC 12 has fights at about 2.6 and 3.5 billion strength.
Are the IDIC 11: The Roads Less Traveled rewards worth it?
Yes. It is a low-effort mission with no combat and no payment, and it hands out 1,100 Trait XP, 56,000 6★ Raw Gas, 1,300 Σ-Tritanium and 500 Consulate Luminous Cores. It is also the only way on to the IDIC finale. For the wider setting and other level 61 missions, see the Origin Sector arc und die STFC mission guide.
