IDIC 5: Darmok Amok is the middle mission of the Darmok Amok story in the IDIC series, and the game lists it as Part 2. After failing to find Kayshon aboard the U.S.S. Cerritos, you and the two Enterprises go looking for the Children of Tama on their homeworld instead. The recommended level is 61, the mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 40 to complete, and it moves from the Sigma Tama system to Sol. The headline reward is 5,640,000,000 Tritanium. It is a light mission: a hostile sweep, some travel and one Dilithium payment, with no named boss fight.
IDIC 5: Darmok Amok Part 2
The story line asks you to search for the Children of Tama. In this universe the Tamarians appear to speak Föderation Standard, and their homeworld is guarded by Tamarian Der Weltraum Cruisers that ignore your hails.
- Go to the Tamarian system, in Sigma Tama.
- Approach the Tamarian homeworld, in Sigma Tama.
- Defeat 4 hostiles of Level 24 or higher.
- Travel to Sol.
- Use 690M Dilithium to shore up the shields.
At Sigma Tama IV the Tamarians are dealing with a bandit problem, so your officer suggests proving you are not bandits by helping drive them out, which is the four-hostile objective. The Tamarians then reply with a short text message: Kayshon is studying Federation Standard at Starfleet Akademie, and you should leave their territory. That sends you to Sol, where your group hides in a low orbit of Neptune to avoid detection. The storms there wear down everyone’s shields, and the mission closes when you beam over 690M Dilithium to hold them up. There is no choice split. Warp to complete: 40.
Rewards: 5,640,000,000 Tritanium, 5 12 Hour Assignment Speed Up, 700 Klingonisch Recruit Token, 300 Luminous Prism.
Finishing this mission unlocks IDIC 6: Darmok Amok, where you go after Kayshon at Starfleet Academy.

Tips for completing IDIC 5: Darmok Amok
This is the easiest of the three Darmok Amok missions. The only combat is four hostiles of level 24 or higher, which a level 61 commander can clear with almost any ship. The objective lists no system, so take the nearest targets.
Keep 690M Dilithium in reserve for the last step. The same amount comes up again in the IDIC series (IDIC 7 ends with a 690M Dilithium payment too), so hold a buffer if you are running these back to back.
Use this mission to get a combat ship repaired and ready. IDIC 6 follows with three fights listed at about 2.6 billion strength, all in Sol, and you will want a full-health ship for that stretch.
Are the IDIC 5: Darmok Amok rewards worth it?
Yes. For a low-effort mission you get 5.64 billion Tritanium, 700 Klingon Recruit Tokens, 300 Luminous Prism and five 12 hour Assignment speed ups. The cost is 690M Dilithium and a short trip to warp 40, and clearing it is required to reach IDIC 6. For the rest of the level 61 missions, see the STFC mission guide.
