Time to go back over the basics! In my last video I shared with @everyone the best practices of going from levels 1-29. Star Trek Fleet Command takes a lot of planning to have the most success you can (without spending a lot) and that's what I'm here to do with STFC players. Server 37 invited me to a town hall on a beautiful Saturday and I went through the basics of this level range. Timestamps!
Topics covered:
01:30 - Starting your planning and changing your game style. Plan for everything!
02:00 - Why I encourage skipping Faction Miners at level 30
04:20 - How dumping gas into faction miners hurts your grind for B'Rel/Enterprise
07:35 - Easing the burden of the daily grind.
08:00 - Borg vs Swarm vs Eclipse vs Territory Capture vs Augment. Most important specialty?
10:30 - Territory research - Why it's more important for small alliance to focus on particles vs zone abilities
12:24 - Swarms, 3rd most important speciality
14:00 - Setting yourself up a weekly schedule
20:30 - Choosing your ships, should you skip the Level 32 Faction ships?
22:45 - Hubs to farm Fed/Rom hostiles for level 39s
23:30 - What comes first? ENT - AUG - D4 - Deep dive into each ship
29:00 - Building 1 D3 and 2 Mayflowers at level 34+. Also, 2* ship scrapping
32:00 - Jelly event and when to participate
33:15 - Saving Rare/Epic armada credits to 38 (the pros vs cons)
37:00 - Why I'm not going 40+

Wise words mate. I burned out that bad I left the game for well over a year. I was a commodore in what was, at the time the no1 alliance on server 160. We went hard for a long time levelling up and winning 99% of the events. It got so tiring just trying to keep up with all the dailies and events that in the end 3 to 4 of us left one after each other. I've just come back to the game in the last few weeks and feel so much pressure because I'm only level 34, (which at the time was a top 5 player) but now everyone is just starting to get g4 ships. Seeing how you organise your time in-game is going to help me do the same. Great video mate.

I like the mining recommendations. I have noticed that I was not getting what I bargained for with 12k pulls. Will stick with 1750 so I can save up for bonus refinery. I did send Scopely a suggestion about adding Myc and Data to mining Mondays to give players more options. I received positive feedback from them, will see what happens. I do love the Franklin though. Now that it is in the 350k power range, it gets me through my dailys with minimal repair costs. It is still crazy that a franky can take out a discovery...😒

Great video...sound advice. I am as close to burned out as one can be without uninstalling. I am at 32. I may stay at 32. One of the reasons and one of the items you did not mention is the amount of UC and rares required for researches. Saving for ships is great but research IMO is important and balancing the two has been a task. Currently I am not doing a lot of research other than the new tree but I see some things in galaxy that look good but require uc.

@Larommi 3 года назад

I disagree with faction mining. I do mine daily because as meager as it is, the 115 faction credits help. Plus you get bonus ores. I just set my ships when I know I won't be playing....dinner...or in the morning before work.

im lvl35, only thing i have invested on were the prime researches, and buy the BP pack, other then that im heavy grinder, my daily routine starts with looking for 1 of the mat nodes(takes me 1.30 hour to finish 25k needed, i find and clear and then go immidiately kill swarms and daily hostiles(takes max 1 hour to do it for swarm daily and finish all 3 factions) when done i start doing borg, 30 minutes done and its about time the node i captured is done, and go look for new one in advance and capture to save myself time, then after 30 minutes borg i go do 15 minutes of eclipse, kill the 35lvls get loot for 2 days in one run, then after that i done all daily hostiles(while still mining) i start focus and finish the events if havent done previous day(events start at 7pm for me, daily start at 7am) and in meanwhile ive done the material daily minig, i dont feel i get burned out like as i have efficient daily routine, and save me lots of time, about refinery i do only 25ks as it is ballanced between all kind of refined mats, need commons if want to save lat in future, and after saying that ill share what ships i have at various tiers, augur T4 enter T3 D4 T3, brek intrepid and gladius at T4(skipped on them for the epic ships, i have maxed sally, T7 centurion and Brotas, have scrapped T9 mayflower and legioner, D3 in last component before T9 and scrap, Vidar T8, maxed franky , and i have every single ship before that at maxed lvl, im collector and saved all ships with 1 exemplar, everyone can do it and make if plan their activity time so in summury from what i do daily, all hostiles done in 1.45 hour, all mining done in 3.30 hour, and in meanwhile 24/7 i sit on lat node and get daily double refinery from T8 Dvor and forgot to mention i do data every 4 days 1 full cargo load, just find the right timing to do the perfect daily routine for you. good luck all and to you Rev, live long and prosper pirate

@sosministriesrev1412 3 года назад

The best plan that is to achieve one goal at a time. I chose the way l play. Fed faction Solo. I have maxed Dvor, Franklin, Horizon, Botany Bay and T8 Vidar these l consider investment ships. I use T5 Anteres and l manage using outlaw place for gas, ore and crystal. Maxed mining crews. I have maxed Sally, T7 Intrepid and T6 Enterprise, but l have many maxed officers, all of my starfleet officers are maxed. At level 37 I have accepted the fact that growth is slow and l am not in a hurry to get to level 38. I will exhaust my researches and buildings and most of all take my time and enjoy!

@kasoni557 3 года назад

I just wanted to take this opportunity and tell you I think I watch too many of your videos. Last night I had a dream you were revealing the new territory ship for the next arc. It was a swarm like ship. Basically it was 6 ships docked together. Once it got blown up it put 5 little ships (weak like realtas) that just ran around in what ever system they were in avoiding attacks automatically. So lets say you where based in the system of take over, you could send this out, get it killed and send it back out, over and over making a swarm of tiny ships for points. Each 2 of these only gave 1 point, but with an ally dedicated to killing it, you could single handedly put up hundreds of points. Oh and yeah crash the servers too.

@WouterVerbruggen 3 года назад

Can you do a video on crewing the Vi'Dar at different levels and what hostiles to hit? That'd be very helpful! I've trying to find out the best tactic, but because you can only travel to borg twice a day, it's quite difficult to properly compare all different officer combo's vs all level hostiles. With my Tier 5 Vi'dar with 7/10, 8/10 and 9/10 I can bring home about 17K probes hitting lvl 27 borg. Feels it's quite good, but no idea if its actually good or only mediocre XD

Monday and Tuesday is mining days here lately. The bonus refinery can only get 3 pulls because of the ridiculous cool down timer that Scopely thinks we need to slow our progression.

@jamesbell7696 3 года назад

Just an alternative view on mining for free to play people. As a lvl 30 f2p who has been playing less than a year and a half, I almost never stop mining. There is zero reason to leave a ship parked at the station doing nothing. We have 24 hours worth of shields a day so leaving a ship home for protection isn't necessary. If my ship isn't being used to fight for an event/daily or being repaired, it's mining or swapping out with a full miner. Not just for the materials but for the daily rewards for gas and crystal mining (I'm dual faction), for latinum, and for extra crystal because you can never have too much of it. If you're free to play, keep your ships working for you at all times, especially when you're NOT actively playing the game.

@RevDeuce 3 года назад

Certainly nothing wrong with that, but I'm speaking from a what you're doing when you're actually in the game perspective. And the key is to spend less time in this game

Don’t totally agree with your comment on hijacked ships. I use my D3 frequently for armadas which works pretty nice. I’m lvl37 and use it also to help lower lvl player in their armadas . And it’s pretty neet to crack bases with the augment crew and more or less cheap to repair. I guess I will use it up to lvl 39 b4 I put it into the museum. Also your tip to hit farming Franklins sucks. This is a no no from my pov. BB’s fall into the same category. You should respect players who grind to push their boats forward as there are more than enough opportunities to loot other stuff.
