Star Trek Fleet Command has two loyalty tracks that share this page. The Syndicate is your personal track: 65 levels, 280,550,000 Syndicate XP to max, earned from the daily Syndicate chest and store packs, with permanent account-wide buffs and officer shards. The Emerald Chain is your alliance’s track: 60 levels and 6,223,000 Emerald Chain XP, earned by competing in Alliance Tournaments, with buffs and store unlocks for the whole alliance. Both full level tables are below.

How the Syndicate works
Syndicate progress is yours, not your alliance’s. The game’s own instructions are short: claim the daily chest to get XP and level up, or get packs in the store for more XP. Buffs become active after you collect the new level, and shards and slots become available after you collect the new level too, so remember to collect each level when you reach it. The Syndicate screen shows your current level, the XP you need to reach the next level, and the daily chest and store buttons.
Once a level is collected, its buffs and unlocks apply to your account and stay there even if you switch alliances. Most buff values scale with your level, so the same buff pays a higher percentage at level 60 than at level 20. Because it is account-bound, the Syndicate is one of the more reliable ways to build permanent passive stats: the progress you make follows you regardless of where you play.
How much Syndicate XP do you need?
Level 2 needs 2,500 XP and level 10 needs 67,000, but the curve steepens hard at the top: level 60 needs 145,550,000 and level 65 needs 280,550,000. The full table below lists the cumulative XP for every level.
What each Syndicate level gives you
Every level bundles a few things together. There are permanent buffs, which early on lean economy (resource production, mining, cargo, warp speed) and later shift to combat (hull and shield health, officer stats, isolytic damage and defense, weapon damage, critical damage). There are officer shards: the track runs through Ghrush in the early levels, then Mavery, then AGIMUS, Phellun, and finally SNW T’Pring at the top. And there are quality-of-life unlocks that are not stats at all, like extra officer and fleet presets, a Fleet Commander slot and seat, a Multipurpose Exocomp slot, and Insta Warp for survey ships.

Emerald Chain levels (1 to 60)
The Emerald Chain is the alliance counterpart to the Syndicate, and it works the other way around. Your alliance earns Emerald Chain XP by competing in Alliance Tournaments; placing higher on the leaderboard and reaching higher leagues earns more XP per tournament. The rewards it unlocks apply to the whole alliance rather than to you alone. Leave the alliance and you leave those buffs behind.
Each buff scales with your player level, so the table shows the range from the lowest level bracket to the highest. Most ranges reach their top value in the level 61 to 70 bracket. Many rewards add items to the Alliance Tournaments Store rather than handing them out directly, so reaching the level unlocks the purchase.

A few things stand out. The officer shard track runs through Naga Delvos, from 2 shards a day at level 6 up to 8 a day at level 26, then Jirali, from level 38 to level 60. The Alliance Tournaments Store unlocks include refits such as the Feesha Glas at level 8 and blueprints for the Voyager, Eviscerator and NX-01. From level 31 on, critical hit damage, hull and shield health, armada damage and PvP isolytic stats make up most of the buffs, alongside build and research speed.
Emerald Chain vs Syndicate: which matters more?
You control the Syndicate directly, so it is the one to plan around. The Emerald Chain depends on how your whole alliance performs in Alliance Tournaments, and its buffs leave with you if you switch alliances. If you are choosing between two alliances, a high Emerald Chain level is a real perk to weigh: at level 25 the alliance buffs already include up to +1,500% hull health and up to +3,000% PvP damage.
Is pushing Syndicate level worth it?
For most players, yes, because the payoff is passive, permanent, and account-bound. Almost everything else in the game asks you to spend time or resources for a one-off return, while Syndicate buffs pay you on every action for as long as you play, no matter which alliance you are in. The officer shards are a real draw too: a steady climb funnels full officers like Ghrush, Mavery, AGIMUS, Phellun and SNW T’Pring to your roster without opening a wallet. If you are choosing which levels to push toward, the health and isolytic levels in the 40s through 60s are the ones that change what your fleet can survive and kill, especially against the toughest armada targets like the Aggregation family.
