With the U.S.S. Gracie repaired, you team up with its crew to find out who attacked the ship and tried to steal its deck water. The game lists a recommended level of 61, the mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 22 to complete, and most of it takes place in Cita Laga after a pickup in <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/niawillen-28-neutral\/\">Niawillen<\/a>.

Everything after that happens in Cita Laga, where a local contact trades information for help with three hostiles of level 14 or higher.

The ship you attack is listed at about 2,113,383,600 strength, so bring your strongest combat ship and make sure it is fully repaired before you surround the nebula. The three level 14 hostiles are trivial at level 61 and can be cleared with anything.<\/p>\n<p>Travel is short. Niawillen and Cita Laga both sit within the warp 22 range, and after the first objective the rest of the mission stays in Cita Laga, so you can park your combat ship there once you arrive.<\/p>\n<p>If you are running the full set back to back, IDIC 3 opens with more hostiles and then asks for a 20.9B Parsteel donation.

The 3,600 \u03a3-Parsteel and 45,000 6\u2605 Raw Crystal are useful at level 61, and the 13 fifteen-minute \u03a3-Speed Ups add up. The 300 Quantum Prism is the reward that stands out if you are collecting prisms. The cost is one fight at around 2.1 billion strength and a short run through Cita Laga, which is a fair trade.
