Well it is true. There seems to be some lack of endgame contends to cover the Tholian front. Especially if u have multiple characters and want them to advance in the new reputation.
Here is a link what we do in OCD fleet to make the best out of it.
I think Cryptic has done an amazing job with the expansion in general (aside from some bugs) and they surely must be busy. I also find the multiple choices a good idea in those missions where it?s fitting. Perhaps some more stuff will be added on the Nukara side in the future. What I?d wish would be:
- one STF like elite/normal space queue
- one STF/Mintrap like elite/normal ground queue
- expansion of 6 more quests or so on Nukara to make a raid there worthwhile.

Yeah, the Nukara Mark farming is a real pain. On top of the few options that are available, there appears to be a bug for the Crystaline Catastrophe in that it does not reward bonus Nukara Marks during the Bonus Mark Event. Also, the fact that you're having to play old content for the new rep system makes it even more boring and tedious.
both get more. azura 45+ when 2 times a scimitar comes.
and the vault with a good team, all ships rescued and being under 40percent od the web with the named ship in the end destroyed also you get 45+ also
Azure is capped at 30 marks, even when you get 45 points it still only gives 30 marks.
The vault all ships rescue 0% - 58 marks, 20% 50 marks, 40% 46 marks.
Saved 9, 20% 48 marks, 40%, 44 marks.

Personally, I don't think marks should ever be a limiting factor in the reputation system, the grind is far too excessive, especially if they're introducing more as they intended to from the start. Even worse across several characters. It wouldn't be too bad if more was account bound.
The Azure Nebula Rescue mark cap needs badly to be removed. When you can do your best but somehow be stuck with 20 or fewer marks because the RNG spawns all BoPs the whole round (or fails to spawn a ship under an icon at all, thus eliminating that spawn point for the rest of the round), it is utterly asinine that you're then stuck at 30 if you're lucky enough to later get enough D'Ds and Scims to break the 20 point (30 mark) barrier.

or only spawns 1 ship at a time after the first sets, or decides we all need a 30-60 second break before spawning any more ships...
I've had to earn my Nukara marks via the Azure Nebula Rescue, though I agree. There's a lack of substance to the missions. Romulan rep system has a nice backbone. New Romulus, the surrounding area and all the missions provide marks. Nukara's are available in 3 or 4 missions - of which 1 I enjoy.
