Additional rewards are gained by leveling up, playing through story content up through the Klingon Civil War story arc, and finding special Klingon Recruit objectives on certain mission maps. Many of the same things that players do while levelling their characters will earn Klingon Recruits improved rewards! Some highlights include...

Does this mean all the old episodes and missions? That's a lot of stuff to play through and hunt the special objectives in only a month's time.

Yes and No.
Yes, we will need to play through all the missions and storylines.
No, we don't have the to it all within the space of a month.
To clarify, we just need to, as a minimum, complete the KDF tutorial within the first month to get the [Special Doohickey Mk XVI]* that allows our new character to become a Klingon Recruit.
We can then take our time to progress through all the special objectives, missions, and whatever-else at a pace more to our liking.
The advantage of doing as much as possible within that first month, is that special loot boxes are supposed to drop alongside regular loot that award us dilithium. This broke after 2 weeks on PC and was never fixed, so don't be surprised if the same happens on consoles.

Note: [Special Doohickey Mk XVI] isn't the actual name of the special doohickey we get, it's just that I do not recall at this time the exact name of the special doohickey, otherwise I'd have called it by the proper name instead of "Special Doohickey Mk XVI".

For players interested in instantly completing the the Borg Resurgence Event, we will be offering an updated method for buying out.

Borg Resurgence? Nope.

It is good to know that the fleet mail bug known.

I started a new Klingon and completed the tutorial but didnt get a special doohickey. How do I know I am a recruit?
