Taran is a level 52 mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you root out an elusive member of the Sunspots gang. It is picked up in Hulman and needs warp 230 to start and finish, with every located step in Hulman. You pose as a new colonist’s vessel, defeat 20 hostiles of level 51 or higher, then defeat Taran. The reward is 3,825,000,000 Parsteel, ten 1M Dilithium Tokens, 10 30 Minute Repair Speed Ups and three 100K Tritanium Tokens.
Taran objectives
There are four objectives and no choice split:
- Pose as a new colonist’s vessel. Location: Hulman.
- Defeat 20 hostiles of Level 51 or higher.
- Defeat Taran. Location: Hulman. Enemy strength around 15,221,854.
- Travel to Tomoreira. Location: Hulman.
The hostile count is not tied to a system, and Taran is waiting in Hulman once it is done. Tomoreira, the last step, is also listed in Hulman.
Wo und welcher Warp
The pickup system is Hulman, and warp 230 covers the mission. The recommended level is 52.
The 20 hostiles are the long part; Taran at around 15.2 million strength is the hard part.

Tips
Grind the hostiles near Hulman so you are close when Taran appears. Check that targets are level 51 or higher before you engage.
Repair before Taran. After 20 fights your ship will be worn down.
Test-Verfahren, a KSG side mission picked up in Cypha, also sends you to Hulman and also asks for 20 hostiles, of level 52 or higher, so running the two back to back keeps you in the same area. More missions by level are on the mission guide.
