Shuttle Bay Level 50 is a late station mission in Star Trek Fleet Command with a single objective: upgrade your Shuttle Bay to level 50. It starts and finishes at warp 1, and the game lists a recommended level of 55. The reward is 800 Ultra Recruit Tokens. The mission itself is simple, but the upgrade behind it costs about 170 billion Parsteel and takes close to four years unboosted, so the tokens arrive at the end of a big project.
Shuttle Bay Level 50 objectives
The story line reads: Upgrade to Shuttle Bay Level 50. There is one objective and no choice split:
- Upgrade to Shuttle Bay Level 50.
No system, no fight and no donation. The mission completes when the Shuttle-Bucht reaches level 50.
Wo und welcher Warp
Warp 1 zum Starten, Warp 1 zum Abschließen und kein Abholsystem. Alles passiert auf deiner Station.
The recommended level is 55, above the building level the mission asks for. In practice the Shuttle Bay 50 upgrade and its requirement are what decide when you finish.
Shuttle Bay Level 50 rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|
| Ultra Recruit Token | 800 |
Completing it unlocks the next station mission, Armada-Kontrollzentrum Stufe 50.
What Shuttle Bay 50 costs
The Shuttle Bay is the building that lets you send Offiziere on Away Team Assignments. Current building data lists one requirement for level 50: Operations 50.
| Ebene | Main costs | Build time (unboosted) |
|---|---|---|
| 49 | 97.2 billion Parsteel, 794.5 million Tritanium, 19,230 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore, 5,565 4★ Seltene Raffiniertes Erz | About 1,052 days |
| 50 | 170.2 billion Parsteel, 1.39 billion Tritanium, 22,265 4★ Ungewöhnlich Refined Ore, 6,075 4★ Rare Refined Ore | About 1,383 days |
| 51 | 747.9 billion Parsteel, 3.9 billion Tritanium, 11,400 5★ Gemeinsame Refined Ore, 5,400 5★ Uncommon Refined Ore | About 1,553 days |
Level 50 is the last Shuttle Bay step before the costs move from 4★ to 5★ refined Erze, and level 51 more than quadruples the Parsteel bill.
What the upgrade gives you
The Shuttle Bay raises the weapon damage of your ships. The bonus is listed at 125% at level 45 and 150% at level 50. It also improves the cost efficiency of Service Awards used for research, which reaches 150% at level 50, up from 112% at level 45.
Where it sits in the station mission line
This mission follows Verteidigungstechnologien Stufe 54 and leads into Armada Control Center Level 50, which pays the same 800 Ultra Recruit Tokens and lists a recommended level of 56.
Tips
Get Operations to 50 first. It is the only listed requirement, and at this stage it is a long upgrade on its own.
Plan speed ups around the build time. At close to 1,400 days unboosted, Shuttle Bay 50 is a project that relies on speed ups and help rather than waiting it out.
