Gameplay post Lv50+ for console players??

One of my guys is Lv53 and I really have no idea where to go from here.

I have pretty much figured out how the reputation system works. I am already working on tier 2 on a couple of them. I am stuck on the very last mission of New Romulus. I need an environmental suit to explore the lava tubes but I have no idea where to get them. One of the tooltips said I have to be Tier4!?!?

I find Mk11 gear from these adventure zones and reputation reward boxes.

I am still flying around in my T5 ship tho that I got at 40?? How or what do I have to do to get a stronger ship? Is there a way to get ships from other species? I think the Breen have really killer ships. But my T5 ship or my equipment really are weak compared to the stuff in those adventure zones like D-sphere.

Wheres the best place to farm XP so I can get specialization points?

Anyways I just need a generalized idea of how to get stronger and how to get better or different ships. I used this weekend to upgrade alot of my equipment. Mk14 is the cap?? Can you keep trying to upgrade to improve the rarity??

    Better ships? You buy them with zen or wait for an event to try to get them for free. There is a way to sell converted dilithium? to zen but I hear it is a grind to do so. The ships are specific to factions so if you are Federation, you can only get Federation ships for the most part. I think there is an exception or two but I believe you buy them in C-Store. Or they may only be available on PC for now. From what I have read in the forums here, sounds like a long grind to get a stronger ship unless you pay cash (zen).

    For Console, a lot of things to help us out to grind for a ship or two aren't available yet, like Doffs.

    I don't know what is and is not available for console users but the best place to grab an environmental suit is the exchange. Just pluck 5 of them off of there for dirt cheap and sell them to a vender after the mission is done. Keep 1 for yourself or get a better one from a rep, the mission A Step Between Stars, or a better one from the exchange

    Duty officers. Unfortunately console players do not have these yet. Soon, maybe.

    Doffs are D.uty OFF.icer.S

    They are a collection of junior officers who you can send on timed missions for various rewards including dil exp and ec

    As for better ships, there are account wide ships that you buy with zen. There are "fleet" upgrades for some of these which have stronger hull, shields and one extra console. But fleet ships are per character, not account. You buy them with a combo of in game and zen items. There are three annual ship give away events: winter, summer/risa, and anniversary. There are also lockbox and lobi ships. For the console, these are the dominion ships.

    In addition to these, you can use an upgrade token on most tier 5 ships to make them tier 5-u (means upgraded) with all the stats of a t6 ship. The only things a 5u lacks are specialist bridge officer seats and an unlock able mastery trait. Several lockboxes have cheaper t5 ships like the kazon raider or nihidron destroyer that can be upgraded, but the mirror ships cannot be upgraded. Still the mirror ships often have different bridge officer options that allow for stronger, or at least more flexible, builds.

    Last, cryptic are generous enough to sometimes give out zen ships for free. Recently they gave away the São Paulo, they've given out the nebula the kdf marauder and many others. These free promotions have sometimes included top tier ships, though not always.
