Vendetta is a five-part Star Trek Fleet Command mission chain in the Duality arc that starts with an attack on a Federation Starbase and uncovers a Tal Shiar campaign behind it. Every part is recommended for level 26 and needs only warp 13 to 22 to complete. The chain opens in Rada Ban and ends with a trap for Commander Lenayus in Kepler-018. Rewards include 162,000 Officer XP, 450 Premium Recruit Tokens, 92 speed-ups, Parsteel, Tritanium and a 4 Hr Peace Shield. There is one choice split, in Part 3. It is a quick chain with small fights, well suited to a level 26 commander.

- Follow the distress signal (Hann).
- Defeat the Nausicaan Pirate (Hann, Interceptor, enemy strength around 104,274).

Vendetta Part 3
The scan points to a Tal Shiar base in Nasturta. You are attacked on arrival, and after the fight you choose whether to retreat or attempt to scan the outpost. Retreating costs Dilithium for Captain Amman’s warp coil; scanning means a hostile grind instead.

Tips for completing Vendetta
Vendetta follows the Machinations chain in the Duality arc. Each part unlocks the next.
The named enemies come in different hull types, so you can pick a ship that counters each one. The Nausicaan Pirate in Part 1 is an Interceptor, Naraak in Part 2 and the Romulan vessel in Part 5 are Battleships, and the Nasturta attacker in Part 3, the pirate captain in Part 4 and Commander Lenayus are Explorers. Most sit between about 101,500 and 104,300 strength; Lenayus, at about 131,625, is the one to prepare for.
Part 2 has the one grind every player must do: 12 hostiles of level 27 or higher, a level above the chain’s recommendation, and any hostile of that level counts. Hunt them in systems near Niawillen so you can finish the Naraak fight straight after without a long trip.
Keep 100,000 Tritanium for Part 5’s transmitter. Part 3 pays 238,000 Tritanium on either path, which covers it.
The Part 3 choice comes down to Dilithium versus time. Retreating costs 30,000 Dilithium and pays 200 Ship XP; scanning the outpost costs 14 hostile kills at level 25 or higher and pays 18 3★ Uncommon Refined Ore. The Tritanium and speed-ups are the same.
Warp never goes above 22, so any ship with warp 22 range can reach every system. More chains for this range are in the mission guide.
Are the Vendetta rewards worth it?
Yes, for a commander around level 26. The chain pays 162,000 Officer XP, 450 Premium Recruit Tokens, 647,000 Parsteel, 238,000 Tritanium, 92 speed-ups and a 4 Hr Peace Shield for five short parts. Costs are small: 100,000 Tritanium, plus 30,000 Dilithium if you retreat in Part 3. The fights are light and warp stays low.
