It roams at warp 25 across a handful of mid-level systems and drops Mycelium Spore on every kill. Because it only ever spawns as a Battleship, the quick way to beat it is to bring an Interceptor, match its warp, and let the hull-counter advantage carry the fight.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_beat_the_Bird_of_Prey_Warship\"><\/span>How to beat the Bird of Prey Warship<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This hostile appears only as a Battleship, so the answer is simple: bring an Interceptor. In the hull-counter system, 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=\"4168\">Schlachtschiffe<\/a>, which means a same-tier Interceptor takes reduced damage while dealing extra. There is nothing to swap between levels, since every spawn from 31 to 33 uses the same hull. Match the target&#8217;s warp 25 so you can actually reach it, and pick a ship whose tier is close to the level you are hitting.<\/p>\n<p>Ship tier matters more than raw stats here. An Interceptor a tier or two above the target shrugs off most of the incoming fire, while an under-leveled one can still lose the exchange even with the hull advantage. If you only have a lower-tier Interceptor, fight the level 31 spawns first and work up to level 33 as your ship improves. Keep an eye on repair costs too: a clean win against a Battleship should leave your Interceptor near full health, so if you are taking heavy hull damage, you are probably under-tiered for that level.<\/p>\n<p>For crew, lead with a captain that boosts weapon damage against hostiles, then fill the other seats with <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=\"4169\">Offiziere<\/a> that add damage or mitigation. If you are still early in the game, the cadet crew holds up well at this level: Cadet <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/james-t-kirk\/\"   title=\"Offizier James T. Kirk\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"4162\">Kirk<\/a> as captain with Cadet Spock and Cadet Uhura. That combination raises your damage and helps you win the round race before the hostile&#8217;s heavy hits add up. For current top picks, check the <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/officer-tier-list\/\">Officer Tier List<\/a>, since the strongest crews shift as new officers arrive.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_find_the_Bird_of_Prey_Warship\"><\/span>Where to find the Bird of Prey Warship<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Bird of Prey Warship clusters in mid-level systems, all at warp 25. The level 31 version is spread across the most systems, while the level 33 spawns sit in a smaller set. Because every spawn shares the same warp requirement, a single well-fueled trip can reach most of them without a refit. If a system looks empty when you arrive, hostiles respawn on a timer, so hang nearby or hop to the next system on the list and come back.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Ebene<\/th>\n<th>Warp<\/th>\n<th>Systeme<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>31<\/td>\n<td>25<\/td>\n<td>Aletara, <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/blys\/\"   title=\"Blys (31) &#8211; Neutral Star System\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"4163\">Blys<\/a>, Evans, Kraatu, Orai-12, Pandosia, Sentaros, Tauro-34, Velata<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>33<\/td>\n<td>25<\/td>\n<td>Ferrer, Kavka, Ordesia<\/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>Every Bird of Prey Warship kill drops Mycelium Spore, between 175 and 226 per run depending on the level you fight.
