Involuntary Inspection is a Progenitor storyline mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you rescue colonists caught in Progenitor experiments. It starts at warp 1 but needs warp 130 to complete, with stops in Harrizon and X5-TKV. Along the way you release 1 Dilithium to break a barrier and defeat 18 hostiles of level 44 or higher. The reward is 110 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore and 210 4★ Uncommon Survey Parts, and it leads on to the next Progenitor mission.
Involuntary Inspection objectives
There are four objectives and no choice split:
- Find the colonists. Location: Harrizon.
- Release 1 Dilithium to dissolve the barrier.
- Defeat 18 hostiles of level 44 or higher.
- Bring the colonists to their home planet. Location: X5-TKV.
The first step takes you to Harrizon, where the colonists are held. Freeing them costs a single Dilithium, which is a token amount. The hostile step is the real work: 18 kills against enemies of level 44 or higher. No system is attached to that objective, so any qualifying hostiles count. The mission ends when you carry the colonists home to X5-TKV.
Where and what warp
Involuntary Inspection has no pickup system and starts at warp 1. Completion is a different matter: the mission needs warp 130, higher than the missions on either side of it.
The game lists a recommended level of 1. That figure is not a useful guide here. Warp 130 and the requirement to beat level 44 or higher hostiles are the actual bar, so plan to run this mission with a ship built for late-game range and combat.
Involuntary Inspection rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore | 110 |
| 4★ Uncommon Survey Parts | 210 |
Completing the mission unlocks the next part of the chain.
Involuntary Inspection and neighbouring missions
The mission sits between Introspection, which follows the Progenitors as they investigate the homeworlds of the major factions, and Hindsight, where you locate another Progenitor signal.
| Mission | Recommended level | Warp to complete | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Introspection | 1 | 110 | 14 8 Hour Speed Ups |
| Involuntary Inspection | 1 | 130 | 110 4★ Uncommon Refined Ore, 210 4★ Uncommon Survey Parts |
| Hindsight | 1 | 120 | 8 4★ Epic, 27 4★ Rare and 100 4★ Uncommon Refined Crystal |
Involuntary Inspection has the highest completion warp of the three, so a ship that handled Introspection may still fall short here.
Tips
Have at least 1 Dilithium ready before you reach the barrier step. It is a trivial cost, but the mission waits on it.
The 18-kill objective does not name a system, so you can count kills wherever level 44 or higher hostiles are convenient. Bring your strongest combat ship and repair between batches rather than chaining all 18 kills on a damaged hull.
The refined ore and survey parts are both 4★ Uncommon materials, useful if you are building or upgrading ships that call for them. For the rest of the Progenitor missions and every other mission by level, see the STFC mission guide.
