Update 71: New Officers and Symbiosis Synergy

By Bek 15 October 2024

Commanders, prepare to embark on a new chapter in Star Trek Fleet Command with Update 71: Symbiosis Part 2. This latest update brings the completion of the Symbiosis synergy group, introducing powerful new officers who will redefine armada combat. Dive into the details of Masriad Vael and her team’s abilities, and learn how to leverage their strengths to dominate battles against Invading Entities and hostiles.

Meet the New Officers

Masriad Vael

Officer Ability: Honor Among Thieves

  • Increases Apex Barrier against Invading Entities by:
    • 500/1000/1500/2750/5000

Below Deck Ability: The Winning Gambit

  • When hit by an Armada, Invading Entity, or Hostile, increases critical chance by:
    •  4/5/6/8/12% for four rounds

Masriad Vael is a joined Trill whose symbiont hails from the Mirror Universe. As the leader of the group, she excels in planning and operational support. Her Below Deck Ability, The Winning Gambit, allows your ship to accumulate significant critical chance against any PvE target. When placed on the bridge, her Officer Ability, Honor Among Thieves, enhances the Apex Barrier against Invading Entities, boosting your survivability in challenging encounters.

Byr Ch’Kelrer

Officer Ability: Excessive Measures

  • When hit by an Armada, Invading Entity, or Hostile, increases critical damage by:
    • 5%/8%/12%/17%/25% for four rounds

Below Deck Ability: Stinging Peer Review

  • Increases base loot from non-armada hostiles by:
    • 15%/25%/40%/60%/100%

An exiled Andorian inventor, Byr Ch’Kelrer is often considered a “mad scientist.” His innovative and deadly experiments can now serve your fleet. With his Officer Ability, Excessive Measures, Byr ramps up your ship’s critical damage modifier, leading to devastating critical hits after a few rounds. In a supporting role, his Below Deck Ability, Stinging Peer Review, functions as a loot multiplier when you defeat hostiles.

Maximizing Synergy and Strategy

Assemble the ultimate Symbiosis crew with Dajash Tolra, Toli, Byr Ch’Kelrer, and Masriad Vael. Completing Dajash Tolra’s synergy provides extra loot from armadas. Placing Byr Ch’Kelrer on the bridge and Masriad Vael below decks adds increased critical rate and critical damage to the existing extra shots and mitigation reduction effects. This setup effectively dismantles armadas, maximizing your offensive capabilities against both Armadas and Invading Entities.

Pro Tip: To enhance your ship’s mitigation effects, consider bringing Tom Paris below decks. Without him, the Symbiosis crew focuses primarily on offense and lacks inherent mitigation boosts.
