Players are able to utilize various types of Equipment on their ship, captain and bridge officers. The equipment chosen will have an effect on the mission as they face many foes from many different races. The correct choice of equipment could be the difference between success and failure.

These can be bought or found in combat as loot. Unwanted equipment can be sold to vendors or on the exchange, traded with other players or salvaged. Note that Bound items cannot be sold on the Exchange or traded with other players.

Mark and Quality[ | ]

The stats of an item are affected by its Mark (Mk) and Quality. The Mk corresponds directly to the minimum rank a player must hold in order to be able to equip the item. The higher the mark number, the greater the items' stats and the higher the minimum level of the player that is allowed to equip this item. Mks increase by 2 per rank. So a Mk I item is usable by a Lieutenant, Mk III requires a Lieutenant Commander, Mk IV a Commander and so on. Level Scaling Equipment is an item that increases its stats with your rank automatically (as such, do not need to be upgraded), these are denoted by an infinity (∞) sign in place of a mark.

The quality of an item represents how many modifiers (mods) an item has. An example of a modifier is "[Acc]", which is a boost to accuracy rating. Uncommon items have 1 modifier, Rare has 2, Very Rare has 3, Ultra Rare has 4, and Epic has 5. 2 of the same mod is shown with a "x2" after it. So a Very Rare Mk VIII item requires a Captain to use and has 3 modifiers (lets say 1 Accuracy modifier and 2 Critical Hit modifiers). Such an item would display like this: [Phaser Split Beam Rifle Mk VIII [Acc] [CrtH]x2].

The Gear Upgrade System enables players to improve the quality of their gear items by increasing both their mark and quality. It can be accessed through a button on the bottom-left of the inventory window, or via the right-click menu of upgradable items while they are not equipped.

Re-engineering allows an item's modifier to be re-rolled at a scaling cost of Dilithium and Salvage. The exact cost depends on how many available mods you wish to re-roll. The re-rolling is random, but it will not re-roll to the existing mod.

Crafting[ | ]

Many items can be crafted by the player using the Research and Development (R&D) system. It uses R&D Materials to create R&D Components, both of which are in turn needed to craft various items, including "tech upgrade kits" for the aforementioned upgrading of exiting items.

Personal equipment[ | ]

Personal equipment is applied to your captain and bridge officers for use on ground maps. Note that bridge officers cannot use kits.

Schematic Body Armor icon
Body Armor offers players various forms of damage resistance, with some variants providing bonus damage strength.
Schematic Personal Shield icon
Personal Shields protect players by absorbing most of the damage from energy-based attacks and a portion of the damage from physical attacks. They rapidly regenerate once they have not sustained damage for a brief period of time.
Schematic Rifle icon
Ground weapons, or personal weapons, are the main offensive tools for players, and come in two different forms: melee and ranged.
Schematic Kit icon
Kits consist of two elements: "Kit frames", which hold up to five "Kit modules" (six if an Elite Captain Training Token is used). Both are specific for the career path of the player and, in contrast to other ground items, cannot be used by your bridge officers. Uncommon and better frames also have stats; modules determine which kinds of clickable abilities the player character has in ground combat.
Small Hypo icon
Common icon
Ground Devices allow for an ability to be operated independently of player and bridge officer abilities. These can be either be consumable or permanent. There are several types of ground device.
  • Synthale icon
    Common icon
    Food and Beverages are consumable items that regenerate a portion of the player's health outside of combat, as well as Tribble breeding.
  • Small Shield Charge icon
    Common icon
    Non-Food consumables are used for several purposes, including healing during combat and bonus damage.
  • Polygeminus grex stahl icon
    Common icon
    Tribbles are small, round, furry creatures that can grant small bonuses, including healing, damage, health regeneration and damage resistance. Some special Tribbles grant special bonuses.
  • Horta icon
    Rare icon
    Pets are NPCs summoned by a player that can either be combat or non-combat.
  • Gambling Device icon
    Rare icon
    Non-consumable Devices cover a wide range of items that do not come under any of the previous categories. Some of these may be cosmetic, while others provide a bonus of some kind.

Starship equipment[ | ]

Matter Anti-Matter Warp Core icon Singularity Warp Core icon Warp Cores affect sector-space movement speed and confer certain power bonuses. Many ships of numerous races - Federation, Klingon, Dominion, etc - use Matter/Anti-Matter cores, while Romulan vessels sport Singularity Cores.
Schematic Deflector Array icon
Deflector Dishes boost various Science-based skills, and some Engineering-based skills, depending on the type of Deflector Dish.
Deteriorating Secondary Deflector icon
Secondary Deflectors, like their Deflector Dish counterparts, boost various Science-based skills, depending on the type of Secondary Deflector.
Schematic Impulse Engine icon
Impulse Engines determine a starship's normal flight speed, turn rate, and full impulse speed, based on the base statistics of the ship it is equipped on. Different variants can provide different speeds depending on Engine Power.
Schematic Shield Array icon
Ship Shields protect your starship against incoming attacks. Different shield variants have differences in capacities, regeneration, and how much damage they let through.
Auxiliary Battery icon
Common icon
Ship Devices allow for an ability to be operated independently of player and bridge abilities. These can be either consumable or permanent.
Schematic Beam Array icon
Ship Weapons are the main offensive tools on a starship. They are divided into three categories: Energy Beam weapons, Energy Cannon Weapons and Kinetic.
Schematic Console icon
Consoles are items that boost various ship systems and abilities. These are divided into 4 sub-categories.
  • Tactical Consoles improve your starships ability to attack with weapons, be it energy based (cannons, beams) or kinetic based (torpedoes, mines).
  • Engineering Consoles improves starship's performance capabilities, including bonus power output, damage resistance, and repair ability bonuses.
Schematic Shuttlecraft - Delta Flyer icon
Hangar pets are small, lightweight vessels that can be deployed from ships with hangar bays.

Most are extremely agile, and many have different roles, such as direct damage dealing, debuffing, or supporting friendly vessels. They operate in large numbers, but due to their weak shields and hull, they are easily dispatched.

Whist not individually controlled, players can dispatch orders and commands though the use of carrier commands, which is available on any ship capable of deploying hangar pets.
