While not @everyone can grind in Sol, Romulus, or Kronos, more people can than they realize. Whether you're level 34 trying to score some early blueprints for the future or rep grinding without the deeps pace travel times and warp ranges in the upper 40s, there are multiple benefits to Star Trek Fleet Command players grinding in capital systems. Let's discuss!
Topics covered:

As an ops 46 player, I recently finished my epic grind in Kronos, finally acquiring all 350 bp's for a Korinar. That grind took me about 3 months of grinding. This grind also put me at Leader standings with Feds and Guardian with Romulans. Not to mention all of the other drops (officer exp, speed ups and Ktinga & Borcha bps). Point is you can grind out the ops 46 rares, just takes time and a lot of effort.

@Astroman1990 Год назад

Thank you for the vid! As a level 40 player, I’m always hesitant in attacking higher level hostiles. Your video gave me better insight in not having to travel 10 minutes into deep space to get rep, grinding and loot. Thanks again!

@richardwinstanley8219 Год назад

Maxed B'rel with mid level PMC can take out the regular transports (not heavy) which can be an amazing points scorer for hostile events. Sometimes it cant get the kill in 100 rounds of combat, so you get to attack them again on low hull/shield for an extra victory.

Interesting information. As a level 29 player, I am always pushing the envelope on how high I can go. I am usually surprised by just how high I can punch. 😊😅

@PlXNIN Год назад

I built a fleet of G4 ships out of capital system grinding, and I don't use G4 ships for the grind because they're just too expensive to operate. I recommend people to move your station to nearby system and just use your good old G3 epics to grind. I use D4 for the heavies (just the classic PMT with below deck officers like Hugh and Mariner, I get about 10 kills per hull) and Ent with PMc for the reg transports.

@BackYardProspecting Год назад

I'm lv 41, I grind the normal traders in these systems. Best grindy systems. On my server the regulars spawn on their own. usually 3-6 will spawn on their own

@NugeFireball Год назад

With the new 4* mining systems in Delta Quadrant, it is not as terrible for people to go up in rep before deep space now. If you can get someone clearing the heavies for you and just focus on the regulars with pmc then you are golden.

@jugularjuggla17 6 месяцев назад

This is why I only hit heavies now 😂 i remember what it was like to be struggling with an auger for heavies and a d4 for regular

@barkman1739 Год назад

It should be noted that if you don’t have a t4 or t5 khan, a t5 Tlaan or a burn officer (augurs only) makes a suitable pairing with Bev/Mudd. Also, the importance of the Lead Expedition ATA, rep (60%) and ops (-2) levels required to start buying the next ship bps cannot be stressed enough. Thanks for the video, Rev!

@RevDeuce Год назад

Add that video to the end credits!

@douglasreid7511 Год назад

I ground out the Valdore, Ktinga, Bchor and Vorta Vor almost entirely from Cap system normal transport grinding for my dailies every day, mainly with an Ent and the the Jelly when I got it. Only thing I’ve noticed that’s weird is that Sol seems to spawn sooooo many less normal traders.

@EmperorSztoid Год назад

Your PMC K'Tinga is missing a below deck officer. Sol and Kronos spawn regulars for every regular killed, assuming you don have stuck hostiles. You don't need to clear heavies. If you're having spawning issues, go to Galaxy view and then back to System view.

@jugularjuggla17 6 месяцев назад

I was opening my capital loot boxes around 20-25 at a time. I was also averaging about a dozen Kelvin prints every couple hundred boxes.

@RM-bm3qb Год назад

Well, sure enough - you're right Rev. Used the Mudd/Bev/Khan line up, hit a heavy with my T4 Augur (I'm L39), and killed it. Could only kill 1 before dying on the 2nd. But maybe once Im T5 I can get 2.

@waynemartin3416 Год назад

I think that there's a couple of math issues that you left out. I hit 65 Heavy/capital traders in Kronos, and got 2 chests (guess what.....no BPs) At that rate, I'd need to hit 3250 to get 100 chests. Given the typical Scopley drop rate if I was to use this method to grind BPs it would probably take all year, or a couple of years to get enough BPs to build a ship.

Enterprise, 4 million power. I tried a few crews and ended up with PMC and it worked a treat. Never thought I could kill a 24 m transport with little damage. Did have to watch your vid a few times.

@pazzap7781 Год назад

As always good advice about punching up. But in this instance, you gave Scopely a HUGE pass, on the fact that those systems are bugged on regular vs. Heavy transport rates. The rates of regulars were much higher that they are today due to stuck hostiles with a similar situation to the mantis hostiles. It just doesn’t get as much attention because it’s not tied to a pay-for feature/ship unfortunately. Lower levels use to have a lot of fun grinding those regular capital ships, due to Scopely’s incompetence, and everyone’s acceptance of their very very low quality now, low quality seems to be just accepted as the norm. Which is a very sad state of affairs. I’m saying that as a lover of all things Star Trek…and usually a promoter of the game.

@johnforbus5221 Год назад

Here's the crews to use: under 42 use blue bev as capt with meth Mudd and either khan or talaan or Nero or GG as capt, snw hemmer and tal. If 42 and above pmt works as well as snw officers. Plus per hit they offer the highest rep gain till 185 warp space

I just wanna get an augur without having to grind romulan rep. Because by the time im getting those 3 star epics I will only have my romulan rep at neutral or slightly lower thanks to faction locking (im going fed and Klingon duel btw). And im more of an interceptor fan than anything else, but I can definitely see the value of having a lumbering behemoth for territory battles.

@WouterVerbruggen Год назад

The big problem for a lot of players in the 30s is the operation costs of doing this grind, especially for the punch up crew. There needs to be someone to grind heavies for you if you want to do it at scale. Keep in mind that the punchip example is a whale's bortas with huge stats and buffs (3.7M for a 28 is absolutely nuts), most players need an epic ship to do a heavy at minimum. Good that you mention the ecplise 45s, those also only work if you have a whale to carry you...
