Trickle Down is a two-part Star Trek Fleet Command mission chain that starts with the fall of a promising Klingon colony in Ker’Anh and ends with you rooting out a spy named K’raan. Both parts are recommended for level 76 and need warp 4,000 to complete, and the chain is picked up in Ta’Sol. It pays 1,000,000 Ship XP, 1,284,000 7★ Raw Gas, 497,000 Σ-Parsteel, 1,400 Σ-Klingon Credits and 47.4 billion Klingon Points. It is a quick chain with two fights and no donations.

Trickle Down Part 1
A promising Klingon colony has fallen. You fly to the colony in Ker’Anh, get attacked on arrival, fall back to Quadoria and report to Gorthak in Ta’Sol.
- Go to the colony (Ker’Anh).
- Defend yourself (Ker’Anh, enemy strength ~55,730,940,597,308).

Trickle Down Part 2
Now you root out the spy. The trail starts at the medical facility in Ta’Luna, runs through Cezeon, and ends in Kilmihil, where you stop K’raan.
- Go to the medical facility (Ta’Luna).
- Look for K’raan (Cezeon).
- Track K’raan (Kilmihil).

Tips for completing Trickle Down
There are only two fights, one per part, at about 56 trillion and 54 trillion strength. The attack at the colony in Part 1 is slightly the harder of the two, so if your ship handles it, K’raan in Part 2 should not be a problem.
Part 1 sends you through Ker’Anh and Quadoria before the report in Ta’Sol, and Part 2 covers four systems in four objectives. Every part needs warp 4,000, so check your range before you start.
No part asks for a donation. The faction swing is 47.4 billion Klingon Points gained against 55.4 billion Romulan Points and 26 billion Federation Points lost; see faction reputation if that matters for your standings.
Are the Trickle Down rewards worth it?
For a two-part chain with two fights, yes. The 1,000,000 Ship XP in Part 1 is the most useful reward, and the chain adds 1,284,000 7★ Raw Gas, 497,000 Σ-Parsteel, 112,000 7★ Broken Explorer Parts, 1,400 Σ-Klingon Credits and 2 Gravimetric Data along with the Klingon Points. Romulan-leaning players may prefer to skip it because of the point loss. The Σ resources guide covers the Σ-Parsteel, and the STFC mission guide lists more level 76 missions.
