Slay It Again, Sam is a five-part mission chain about Sam Kirk and the Gorn who keep hunting him. You bring a Starfleet officer back to safety, take Sam to work while fending off Gorn vessels, help a mining operation in Kalla, solve the riddle of an ancient artifact in Exchange Gamma, and finally clear the last Gorn off his trail. All five parts are recommended for level 34 and start at warp 1, finishing between warp 1 and warp 38. Rewards include one SNW Sam Kirk shard, one SNW Christopher Pike shard, 1,200 Latinum and 16,828,000 each of Tritanium, Parsteel and Dilithium in Part 2. It costs nothing to run and every fight is small.

Tips for completing Slay It Again, Sam
Every named enemy in the chain, ten Gorn vessels plus the treasure hunter, is listed at about 419,000 strength. A level 34 combat ship should handle all of them, though Part 5 strings four fights together, so repair between them if needed.
Part 2 asks you to mine 25,000 Tritanium, so have a mining ship ready for that step. Part 3 needs warp 38 to reach Kalla, the highest in the chain, and its sweep counts only hostiles of level 35 or higher, one above the recommended level.
There are no donations anywhere in the chain.
Are the Slay It Again, Sam rewards worth it?
Yes. Part 2 alone pays 16,828,000 each of Tritanium, Parsteel and Dilithium, which is a strong return for a level 34 mission. Across the chain you also get SNW Sam Kirk and SNW Christopher Pike shards, 1,200 Latinum, 150 Premium Recruit Tokens and 740 3★ ship parts, for no resource cost. See the STFC mission guide for other chains around this level.
