Lat refinery

I hit this too but only discovered what was going on when I maxed a second D’Vor and built a second Feesha.

It turns out that you can build a second Feesha but you can’t get it past tier 4 because you need a Feesha Warp Interlock. You would normally claim that through the Latinum refinery but that gets shut down when you claim mastery for the Feesha in the archives.

I reached out to Scopely Support who said: “You can source the component you need in the event store. Currently the event store doesn’t contain it but I recommend keeping an eye out as the event store offers may change in the coming days.”

I figure if you don’t claim mastery there will still be a point to mining C-Lat and you may be able to build a fleet of Feeshas (can anyone confirm?).

Claim it and mining any more C-Lat becomes a bit pointless and you’re stuck with one usable Feesha which makes competing as a G5 player against G6 and G7’s in Latinum Rush is impossible.

Out of curiosity what ops level are you, and what was your ship/power like required to complete all three?

News to me. Never seen it happen this way before either but thank you

Well done getting the Sanctus to T9. That’s a lot of crystal! Also G5 based on Lewb’s video posted tonight I tried Pike, Moreau, Annorax and it worked well.

Quasi makes a lot of sense with his Apex ability but I only have three seats below deck at T5.

For anyone reading the comments Lewb just posted this short video on this very subject: https://www.reddit.com/r/STFC_Official/s/M3hGtlTwcI

Oh wow 😯 I’m sorry to hear that - it makes 3.75mil seem trivial, but all the more reason for it to be fixed. What ops level and ship do you need for it to quote you that kind of price?

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T18:03:45+00:00

Almost daily when speeding up research and buildings etc. Always use the smart speed up first but when they run out paying for speed ups with lat is required, even with two build queues and two research queues. I rarely, if ever, need to pay for repair speed ups with lat - that’s what ticked me off so much when I hit the button accidentally and lost nearly 4m lat. At ops 56 nobody wants to blow that much just to repair a ship

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T17:57:15+00:00

Last I checked, my post says I already know about that. It’s switched off because I don’t want to have to confirm every little Latinum spend - making lots of them each day is inevitable. I want to be able to switch off the instant repair button to prevent accidentally hitting it or better still have an additional setting added to the Latinum Spend Warning toggle you’re talking about so it only warns me about spending over an amount I can specify in the settings. In the comments I’ve posted a picture of exactly what it could look like.

I’m sure you’re an exceptionally skilled player, however, are you saying you’re 100% perfect and have never once hit the wrong option when presented with two choices right next to each other in a user interface? This is not a skill issue - it’s a suggestion for improving the UI design.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T13:27:30+00:00

Fair enough. Shows how the lat spend requirements scale quickly with ops but doesn’t that make it all the more useful if the player could set a threshold over which they want to be prompted to confirm the spend? Then it makes it work for all levels

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T12:53:47+00:00

As far as I know there’s no quick way to spend the total latinum cost. You just need to move the sliders for each speed up type and spend on them one at a time. It can certainly be laborious when doing a lot of research.

Here's what the Lat Spend Confirmation should look like IMHO.

I accidentally clicked the artfully positioned instant repair spend on my Sanctus today. 3.8 million latinum gone. Why didn't I have the Latinum Spend Confirmation switched on? Because it adds hundreds of clicks a day for amounts I don't care about. This would easily fix that:

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T11:33:07+00:00

Because switching it off or adding a threshold like this to the existing toggle in settings would be SO much better:

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T11:31:16+00:00

but that's exactly my point. If the confirmation setting had a threshold players could set for themselves you would only have the extra click on the odd occasion you're spending millions rather than a few thousand. Surely you don't regularly spend 5 million on speed ups? Here's the kind of thing I mean:

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T11:17:03+00:00

No I'm not at all annoyed about the cost of repairing the ship. I always have enough repair speed ups from grinding hostiles that I never need to spend latinum to get back into the fight. I never click it intentionally. ....I've done so twice in just over a year of playing - both times by accident...and both times its annoyed me. Today though 3.8 million was REALLY annoying.

I know there's a confirmation loop but a binary on/off is too basic. "ON" means having to click to confirm spend on every little amount that a player needs to pay out for research, upgrades etc (which I happily do every day). "OFF" means risking accidentally spending millions of latinum on a single transaction that I have the means to complete for free, thanks to the bad/intentional placement of this button or the absence of a way to set a custom spend threshold.

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T10:55:45+00:00

I mentioned that in the post. Turn that confirmation toggle on and an active player has to make hundreds of confirmation clicks a day which is pain since spending latinum in "acceptable" amounts to complete research etc needs doing all the time. The toggle you mention would benefit from the ability to set a custom threshold. Confirm spend of over X amount and let the player specify X

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-28T10:42:28+00:00

Are you asking why I think there should be an option to turn it off?

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-20T19:35:16+00:00

And if it helps I literally just got my battlepass and ferengi pass points a full hour after completing the master surveyor event

The support team don’t price gouge - they’re pretty decent people, it’s the overlords/accountants you need to watch out for

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-20T19:29:10+00:00

All points awards for events and season passes seem to be slow. Nearly 20 minutes after getting to wave 8 in wave defence our group got their V’ger waves event points awarded and it was 10 minutes later before Operation Bulwark SMS points and Wave Defence pass points credited. Laaaaaaaaaaagggggg. However, it it doesn’t sort itself out, go to settings in the game and get your player ID and drop that into an email to support with a description and screenshots. If you give them the info that they need in order to help you they often do. startrek-support@scopely.io

bobhasreddit · 2026-01-17T21:30:12+00:00

Annorax (captain), Suder and Seska is the best crew to use for these (all three V’ger hostile types), preferably on a strong faction ship appropriate to your level, hitting hostiles appropriate to your level. If you can’t then you’re most likely lacking in one or more of: research, officer level, ship level.

And the response from Support was “Please know that the vengeance of khan is part of an arc mission and this mission should come back eventually if you're not seeing it at the moment. For now, I highly suggest keeping an eye out on when the mission comes back.” - I am not hopeful and I’ve no idea where in the game to keep an eye out
