Looking for the featured episode that has the least ground combat (preferably) or maybe just the easiest to complete. Since we're grinding reruns, might as well make it quick!

    Spin The Wheel (Devidians) or Cold Comfort (Breen). No combat whatsoever.

    Spin the Wheel.

    Rerouting order is Replicators>Enviro controls>Grav controls>defense systems>enviro controls>replicators.

    Quickest and easiest to do every day.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    The quickest and least fightiest is Spin the Wheel.

    I've been doing Skirmish, though, because I really like that mission. It has a lot of ground combat, though.

    This right here. These are also the shortest episodes.

    daily grind? what for?
    those missions won't reward anything of value, unless you value the lockbox

    15 free lobi per account every 20 hours until the rerun period ends for running one episode.

    I prefer skirmish as I'm able to do it in like 15 mins and its fun.

    Skirmish for me...ground can be alright when you outfit your away team right

    Spin the wheel has my vote for quickest though
    Chive on and prosper, eh?

    ok, but then i t really doesn't matter which one is the fastest...the question should be how you get the fastest to the 15 lobis.
    or does it spawn a lobi each time you start teh mission?
    Go pro or go home

    Once the mission completes, you get 15 lobi.

    Spin or cold comfort. Two quickest.

    I'll be taking the opportunity to farm some of the FEs for things like Dominion Polaron weapons and that sort of thing.

    But yes, spin the wheel and cold comfort are what you want.i prefer spin the wheel, personally, since it takes place on Drozana, which is a decent hub for banking and exchange functions. If only it had a ship tailor as well...

    It's accompanied by the release of the Advanced Obelisk - they leave you a bit short of the amount needed to buy it in Lobi, to encourage you to top up with real money.

    Those are nice, but junk in the end. You can get a better damage and proc effect by combining tetryon glider (2 piece Omega) with fleet polaron weapons.

    My personal order of preference;
    Breen - Cold Comfort (added bonus; Rapid Reload Transphasic Launcher)
    Devidian - Skirmish (Sure, there's fighting, but not too much and it means my Cardie/Jemmie kill count goes up)
    Devidian - Spin the Wheel (Not particularly one of my favorites; all that running, you know...)

    New player, here. Is there no way to avoid ground combat altogether? I can't send down my team and wait to hear back?

    Thanks!

    First off: Replying in a thread where the last post is more than 30 days old is against forum rules.
    Second: No, there is not.
    Third: Welcome to the forums.

    [Rolls into the thread while activating Target Optics and unholstering the [Zombie Control Compression Pistol of Epicosity Mk XIV], shoots and vaporizes this exposed Zombie thread!] :cool:

    This thread was raised from the dead (after no posts for 30 days or more) and it had to be put down.

    Please remember to check the dates of threads; and if you find an old thread raised from the dead which violates the [URL=" http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/announcement.php?&a=51"]PWE Community Rules and Policies[/URL] just report it and avoid posting in it.

    Note that you're more than welcome to start a new thread on the topic (unless there is an existing thread on the topic that has received a post within the last 30 days, in which case you can just continue to post in that thread)! :)

    Cheers,
