Excess is a Klingon mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you fulfill a contract to wipe out hostiles in Klingon space. It is picked up in Khitomer and has one objective: defeat 10 hostiles of level 21 or higher. It needs warp 17 to start and to complete. The reward is 273,000 Parsteel, 80 Klingon Credits, 800 Klingon Points and a Cargo Container. For a single hunting objective, that is a large Parsteel payout.
Excess objectives
There is a single objective and no choice split:
- Defeat 10 hostiles of level 21 or higher.
No system is named for the kills, so any ten hostiles at level 21 or above count. There is no named target and no return trip.
Where and what warp
Excess is picked up in Khitomer, and warp 17 covers both accepting and completing it. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but the objective itself sets the bar: your ship needs to beat level 21 hostiles comfortably, ten times over.
The game lists Klingon Traders, Klingon Patrols and Klingon Fighters in Khitomer at level 20 to 26. Everything there from level 21 up counts toward the quota, so you can finish without leaving the pickup system.
Excess rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Parsteel | 273,000 |
| Klingon Credits | 80 |
| Klingon Points | 800 |
| Romulan Points | -589 |
| Federation Points | -221 |
| Cargo Container | 1 |
Excess is a standalone mission and does not unlock a follow-up.
Other Klingon missions from Khitomer
Khitomer offers a small set of warp 17 missions with similar rewards. Each pays Klingon Credits, Klingon Points and a Cargo Container, plus one main resource.
| Mission | Story | Main reward | Klingon Credits | Klingon Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Excess | Wipe out hostiles in Klingon space | 273,000 Parsteel | 80 | 800 |
| Eyes Open | Deal with the Federation Informant | 12,000 Dilithium | 100 | 1,000 |
| And the Blood Was Ankle Deep | Take a Klingon Ambassador to Deneva | 250 Klingon Recruit Tokens | 50 | 800 |
| The Noose | Help Kras hunt a dishonored Klingon outlaw | 89,000 Tritanium | 130 | 2,000 |
Excess pays the most raw resources of the group. The Noose gives the most Klingon standing.
Tips
Stay in Khitomer and farm the local Klingon hostiles for the quota. Skip anything at level 20, which does not count. The game lists seven Klingon Traders, seven Klingon Patrols and five Klingon Fighters in the system, so there are usually enough targets in range without moving on.
Khitomer is a stop on many other warp 17 missions too, such as Backlash, Supply Run and Scraps, so you can often clear the hostile quota while you are there for something else.
The reputation changes are tiny: 800 Klingon Points against a loss of 589 Romulan and 221 Federation Points. Excess is safe to run whichever faction you favour. Other missions by level are on the mission guide.
