The game lists it at recommended level 1, but it needs warp 80 to complete and both combat paths end in a fight at close to 2 million strength. Midway through you choose to attack the mercenaries or follow them home, and the two paths pay very differently: 35,880,000 Parsteel or 1,330,000 Dilithium, each with a stack of 1 Day Speed Ups.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_You_Hiding_objectives\"><\/span>What Are You Hiding? objectives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first three steps are shared by everyone:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Follow the mercenaries.

The warp 80 requirement and the two-million-strength mercenaries decide when you can actually clear it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_You_Hiding_rewards\"><\/span>What Are You Hiding? rewards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Path<\/th>\n<th>Belohnungen<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Path 1: attack them<\/td>\n<td>35,880,000 <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/parsteel\/\">Parsteel<\/a>, 5 1 Day Speed Up<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Path 2: follow them to their base<\/td>\n<td>1,330,000 <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/dilithium\/\">Dilithium<\/a>, 4 1 Day Speed Up<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Completing either path unlocks the next mission in the storyline.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_path_to_pick\"><\/span>Welchen Weg du w\u00e4hlen solltest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The choice comes down to which resource you are short of.
