Splinter is a level 62 mission in Star Trek Fleet Command about an Augment mercenary named Akko who is firing on every ship that comes near a colony in Krokenia. An Andorian settler asks you to stop him, and once he is beaten you decide whether to hand him to the Federation or let him go with a warning. You pick it up in Krokenia and need warp 1,000 to start and to finish. Each choice pays 54,000 of a 6★ raw resource and 130,000 of a raw Σ resource.
Splinter objectives
The first two objectives are the same for everyone:
- Stop the attack by the Augment mercenary. Location: Krokenia (enemy strength about 4,194,200,695).
- What will you do with the Augment?
Akko claims to be a friend of Khan and says Section 31 has been chasing him from planet to planet. Maia points out that anyone hiding from Section 31 would not fire at every passing ship, so Akko seems to want to be caught. What you do with him is the choice.
Deliver Akko to the Federation
- Take Akko to Alpha Centauri. Location: Alpha Centauri.
You hand Akko over at the Federation Starbase, and he immediately tries to break into Starfleet Security’s computers before he is knocked out. He turns out to have cybernetic implants, and Starfleet locks him up for questioning. Rewards: 54,000 6★ Raw Crystal and 130,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel.
Let Akko go free with a warning
- Take Akko to the Daz system. Location: Daz.
Maia refuses to carry him to Starfleet and drops him in Daz instead, telling him to leave the colony alone and promising to warn Starfleet that he wants their attention. Rewards: 54,000 6★ Raw Gas and 130,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium.
Where and what warp
Splinter is picked up in Krokenia, where the fight takes place. The ending depends on your choice: Alpha Centauri for the Federation path or Daz for the release path. Warp 1,000 is needed both to start and to complete. The recommended level is 62.
Splinter rewards
| Reward | Deliver to the Federation | Let him go |
|---|---|---|
| 6★ Raw Crystal | 54,000 | none |
| 6★ Raw Gas | none | 54,000 |
| Raw Σ-Parsteel | 130,000 | none |
| Raw Σ-Tritanium | none | 130,000 |
Neither path gives faction points or faction credits.
Splinter and Me Want That compared
Krokenia is also the pickup for Me Want That, another level 62 mission at warp 1,000:
| Mission | Fight | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Splinter | Augment mercenary, about 4.19 billion strength | 54,000 6★ Raw Crystal or Raw Gas, 130,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel or Raw Σ-Tritanium |
| Me Want That | Pakled vessel, about 3.37 billion strength | 500 Σ-Dilithium, 121,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium |
Splinter has the harder fight of the two, but it lets you pick your resource.
Tips
Prepare for the opening fight. Akko is listed at about 4.19 billion strength, which is the whole combat challenge of the mission; after him there is only a single delivery.
Pick the path by resource. Delivering Akko pays Crystal and Raw Σ-Parsteel, while releasing him pays Gas and Raw Σ-Tritanium (see Tritanium for the base resource). The amounts are identical, so the story choice has no hidden cost.
Because Splinter has no faction points, it is a safe mission to run whatever your standing with the Federation or other factions. More missions sorted by level are on the mission guide.
