What is the cheapest way to get a purple Vulcan female science officer? They are so expensive on the exchange.

    The cheapest way is with the Doff Mission to recruit one. That mission however, is fairly rare and requires a critical success to score a Very Rare. Even then, there is a 50/50 that it's a female.

    Unfortunately, it's rarity is why it's so expensive.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    There are so many male boffs on the exchange. It's hard to find quality female ones.

    If only you didn't have to mouse over every single one of them just to tell.......
    Even better, improve the forum search function.
    LTS and loving it.

    The best you can hope for is to get the Doff mission for a Vulcan Science Bridge Officer. Then you need to do the following:

    #1 - Pray you get a critical success.
    #2 - Pray you get a female.
    #3 - Pray she will have the traits that are most desirable to you.

    I recall selling a Female Vulcan Science Bofff that I didn't want for something like 18m EC to 20m EC a while ago. It sold relatively quickly because there were no other very rare female Vulcan Science Boffs on the Exchange. I was actually surprised that someone bought her because she was almost 4x more expensive than the males.

    Another way: get a female Alien bridge officer.

    At first very rare BOffs are hard to get, but keep grinding your Recruitment assignments and before you know it you will need a mule character just for the inventory and bank storage space for all your BOffs. Patience is required to do it that way.

    The only problem, is that mules take on a life of their own too :D

    @shinku Found one so far. Traits: Logical, Physical Strength, Superior Acute Senses, Superior Covert. I'll continue to look for others in case these Traits aren't to your liking. Otherwise, if you want her, PM me your in-game character@handle and I'll send her to you. I've got to go to work now, so I won't be able to send her til tomorrow.

    FYI, I think all Vulcans have Physical Strength as one of their traits, so you'll always get that as one of the 4. They never have space traits. A good one for ground would be Superior Creative to buff kit effects.

    I don't have ANY generic boffs. I have Leeta, the Jem Hadar Scotty and the vet android for the away team, though I may replace Leeta with the Breen or Reman. bridge crew is all based on traits, Scotty, Uhura and spock and the potatohead traits are go tos for space.

    Very Rare Female Vulcan Science officers run at a premium? Wish that I had considered that as I've turned quite a few into manuals.
