Training Manuals are items that grant Bridge Officers access to new abilities. Manuals are consumables, i.e., a single Training Manual can only be used on a single officer, after which it disappears.
In general two kinds of Training Manuals exist:
1) Manuals for a single ability (common, uncommon, rare, or very rare; depending on the kind and rank of the ability), and
2) Specialization Qualifications (ultra rare) for a Bridge Officer Specialization (granting 4 space + 4 ground abilities).
Sources of training manuals[ | ]
Training Manuals can be acquired through various means:
Bridge officer trainer[ | ]
- Bridge Officer Trainers at various hubs sell Training Manuals for energy credits:
(250
for Ensign; 2,000 for Lt.; 5,000 for Lt. Cmdr.; 10,000 for Cmdr. abilities) - A Bridge Officer candidate can be "converted" into a single Training Manual of an ability the officer possessed.
Officer training school[ | ]
- Main article: Officer Training School
- A selection of manuals, which depends on your career path and skill point allocation, can be crafted by the player. These kinds of manuals belong to the Officer Training School and always require a PADD, and sometimes EC , as "ingredient".
- Specialization Qualifications can be crafted by the player after having spent 10 points in the respective Captain Specialization. As ingredients, they require a PADD as well as the 8 manuals of the 4 space + 4 ground abilities it gives access to (purchasable at the officer trainer).
- Players can offer any Training Manual or Specialization Qualification they craft on the exchange.
- Some missions reward Specialization Qualifications on first run, or bridge officers already trained in a specialization:
- “Alliances”: [Hierarchy Science / Intelligence Officer Candidate]
- “Dust to Dust”: [Kobali Engineering / Command Officer Candidate] (can be found in the maze)
- “Delta Flight”: [Specialization Qualification - Pilot]
- “Ragnarok”: [Specialization Qualification - Temporal ]
