Okay, so can someone tell me the trick as to how to receive the purple tech doff on this assignment. So far I have attempted 4 times to receive this doff and I keep getting common duty officers??? I am using my main alt on this assignment, which means I have in excess of 200+ purple doffs, roughly 5-8 of each trait. When I assign the quest, I am selecting the purple doff my bridge officer is suggesting... again I'm getting common duty officers and the assignment has been finished with a critical success???
So what's the trick, is the reward merely random doff drops... regardless of assignment success. Or do you have to assign specific duty officers that have unique traits. As like the "Children's Toys" quest that wins you the purple console.
Using too many Diplomat/Advisor doffs can actually hurt your chances, since Success-chance overflow will cut into the Crit chance (if you didn't already know that). So instead get a group of doffs just with the crit-bonus abilities and then like one good diplomat/advisor will actually get you the best possibility. The Vorta Biochemist you get from running Facility 4028, with Efficient and Tactful, is good to use for example. My own Support Colonization team (for example) altogether usually gives me 10 +crit traits for a 33% crit chance, and those are just doffs I got through regular gameplay and CXP accolades. Can't think of anything else to add.
What reginamala says. I will stress that you need to CRIT the assignement to get the purple doff.
Also, the common doffs you've been receiving are random refugees. You get one for each success (including crits). Useful for Asylum missions.
TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class. Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider. Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.
Update. Finally got the purple doff in B'Tran last night, Ten of Ten. The only thing I did differently this time was manually select the doff's to the assignment, versus having my bridge officer choose for me. Thanks again!

Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

Collect a total of 5 of Demera, Maela, and Yelgrun (There might be a 4th one and it's 5 overall in any combination)
Use them in the colonization efforts assignments.
Added bonus: There is a VR Rigelian from the Engineering CXP that gives you even more crit on use.
