Per the ability text, only Federation or <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/romulanisch\/\"   title=\"Romulanische Fraktion\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3644\">Romulanisch<\/a> designed ships can engage in battle; any other ship is lethally struck at the start of combat. Leave your Klingon and independent hulls at dock and send a Federation or Romulan design instead.<\/p>\n<p>From there, the standard counter triangle applies. Interceptors beat <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/tag\/battleships\/\"   title=\"Schlachtschiffe\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3646\">Schlachtschiffe<\/a>, Battleships beat Explorers, and Explorers beat Interceptors, while Survey ships should stay out of fights entirely. The Elite Assassin spawns as all three combat hulls, so match your pick to the target: bring an Interceptor against the Battleship version, a Battleship against the Explorer version, and an Explorer against the Interceptor version.<\/p>\n<p>It also carries a second ability, Elite Assassin Training, which increases its Isolytic Damage by 100% at the start of combat. In practice it hits harder than its listed attack stat suggests, so favor a fast kill over a drawn-out exchange.<\/p>\n<p>For crew, follow the usual anti-hostile principle: a captain whose ability boosts weapon damage against hostiles, backed by <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/star-trek-fleet-command-officers\/\"   title=\"Star Trek Fleet Command Beamtinnen und Beamte\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3645\">Offiziere<\/a> that add damage or shave down incoming hits.

Warp requirements start at 26 on the low end and jump to 48 and 52 for the top two levels, so the level 38\u201339 versions sit well behind the rest of the range.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Ebene<\/th>\n<th>Warp<\/th>\n<th>Systeme<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>30<\/td>\n<td>26<\/td>\n<td>Elequa<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>31<\/td>\n<td>26<\/td>\n<td>Ulrich<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>32<\/td>\n<td>31<\/td>\n<td>Ok&#8217;Vak<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>33<\/td>\n<td>26<\/td>\n<td>Pekka<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>34<\/td>\n<td>33<\/td>\n<td><a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/beta-penthe\/\"   title=\"Beta Penthe (34) &#8211; Klingon Star System\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3641\">Beta Penthe<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>35<\/td>\n<td>28<\/td>\n<td>Lixar<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>36<\/td>\n<td>37<\/td>\n<td>Quv&#8217;lw<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>37<\/td>\n<td>38<\/td>\n<td>Korvat<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>38<\/td>\n<td>48<\/td>\n<td>Qu&#8217;Vat<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>39<\/td>\n<td>52<\/td>\n<td>Burke<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rewards_and_what_it_drops\"><\/span>Rewards and what it drops<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Each kill pays parsteel and tritanium plus faction reputation, and the reputation math is the interesting part. One kill awards both Federation points (205\u20131,635) and Romulan points (103\u2013818) while deducting up to 3,068 Klingon points. That makes the Elite Assassin a strong target if you are building Federation and Romulan standing at the same time, and one to avoid if you are protecting a positive Klingon reputation.

Most houses seek glory in open battle, but the Elite Assassin&#8217;s abilities point to House Mo&#8217;Kai, the house of spies and deceivers featured in Star Trek: Discovery. Mo&#8217;Kai wages war through intelligence, infiltration, and the quiet blade rather than the open duel, and L&#8217;Rell, who briefly ruled the Empire as Chancellor, came from its ranks. An assassin ship that annihilates any vessel outside its chosen prey fits the house&#8217;s reputation for killing on its own terms.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_Klingon_Elite_Assassin_worth_grinding\"><\/span>Is the Klingon Elite Assassin worth grinding?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes, if faction reputation is your goal. Few hostiles pay Federation and Romulan points on the same kill, so the Elite Assassin lets you climb both stores at once while banking parsteel and tritanium. Skip it entirely if you are keeping your Klingon reputation positive, because the loss per kill is steep. Practical tips: check the hull before you attack, bring the counter class in a Federation or Romulan design, and make sure your warp range covers the 48\u201352 systems before hunting levels 38\u201339.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to beat the Klingon Elite Assassin in Star Trek Fleet Command: which ships can engage it, counter classes, spawn systems for 30-39, and drops.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[196],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27918","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-hostiles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27918","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27918"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27918\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27947,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27918\/revisions\/27947"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27918"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27918"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27918"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
