The game lists a recommended level of 1; it starts at warp 1 and needs warp 13 to complete. The mission asks for 400 Frequency Modulators and has one fight, a Swarm lead vessel at roughly 21,645 power. The reward includes 3 Jaylah shards, and finishing it unlocks Directives.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Infestation_objectives\"><\/span>Infestation objectives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are eight objectives and no choice split:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rendezvous with Jaylah in Rigel. Location: Rigel.<\/li>\n<li>Track the damaged Swarm ship. Location: Elona.<\/li>\n<li>Find the Swarm in Caldik. Location: Caldik.<\/li>\n<li>Bring 400 Frequency Modulators to your Station.<\/li>\n<li>Disable the lead vessel within the Swarm group. Location: Caldik. Enemy strength is roughly 21,645.<\/li>\n<li>Donate 400 Frequency Modulators.<\/li>\n<li>Take the Swarm debris to Rigel VII. Location: Rigel.<\/li>\n<li>Give the Cyberpathic Interface to the Rigelians.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You meet Jaylah in Rigel, follow the damaged Swarm ship to Elona and find the main group in Caldik. The mission then asks you to bring 400 Frequency Modulators back to your Station, disable the Swarm lead vessel in Caldik and donate the modulators. The last two steps return you to Rigel VII with the Swarm debris and the Cyberpathic Interface.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_and_what_warp\"><\/span>Wo und welcher Warp<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Infestation is available from warp 1 and needs warp 13 to complete. The route covers Rigel, Elona and Caldik, with a stop at your Station in the middle for the modulators.<\/p>\n<p>The recommended level is listed as 1. The Swarm lead vessel at about 21,645 is the only scripted fight, so a combat ship that can handle that and reach Caldik is all you need.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Getting_the_Frequency_Modulators\"><\/span>Getting the Frequency Modulators<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The mission text states that Frequency Modulators can be acquired by defeating Swarm hostiles. You need 400 of them, first to bring to your Station and then to donate, so plan on clearing Swarm hostiles before or during the Caldik part of the mission.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Infestation_rewards\"><\/span>Infestation rewards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Belohnung<\/th>\n<th>Amount<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/jaylah\/\">Jaylah<\/a> shards<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2\u2605 Common Refined <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/gas\/\"   title=\"Rohgas\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"12479\">Gas<\/a><\/td>\n<td>12,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2\u2605 Explorer Parts<\/td>\n<td>120<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/tritanium\/\"   title=\"Tritanium\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"12480\">Tritanium<\/a><\/td>\n<td>5,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cyberpathic Interface<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Completing the mission also unlocks the next one, <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/direktiven\/\">Richtlinien<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_it_sits_in_the_Swarm_story\"><\/span>Where it sits in the Swarm story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Mission<\/th>\n<th>Warp zum Abschlie\u00dfen<\/th>\n<th>Fights<\/th>\n<th>Headline reward<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/die-quelle\/\">Die Quelle<\/a><\/td>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>Orion <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/kehra\/\"   title=\"Kehra Abfangj\u00e4gerschiff\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"12477\">Kehra<\/a> and Underboss Vogga, about 11,000 each<\/td>\n<td>2 Jaylah shards<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/die-daten-schlange\/\">Die Datenfalle<\/a><\/td>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>Nausicaan Battleship and the data snare, about 18,000 each<\/td>\n<td>7,000 Tritanium, 1,300 <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/dilithium\/\"   title=\"Dilithium\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"12481\">Dilithium<\/a>, 1 Cyberpathic Interface<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Befall<\/td>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>Swarm lead vessel, about 21,645<\/td>\n<td>3 Jaylah shards<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Richtlinien<\/td>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>100 hostiles across Caldik and Omtose<\/td>\n<td>800 Frequency Modulators plus your choice of reward<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The Source opens this storyline and The Data Snare comes directly before Infestation.
