Features and benefits

The Klingon receiver UI

• All accounts received an extra Character Slot during the first run of this event, with the launch of Season Twenty-two: House Reborn.
• Klingon Recruits have a temporary bonus trait, Klingon Recruit, which awards Dilithium Ore for the player's entire team upon defeating enemies. This Trait is only active during a Klingon Recruitment Event.
  • Unlike previous Recruitment events, this trait rewarded Dilithium Ore in the form of dropped loot containers.
• Klingon Recruits are able to quickly fill the gap between themselves and high-level characters.
• Klingon Recruits will find out quickly that they have been selected to participate in a series of special operations, with the backing of a shadowy patron. This mysterious patron is dead-set on removing Enemies of the Empire. After contacting Klingon Recruits during the tutorial, they are likely to move against these Enemies, attaching additional dangers and rewards to missions along the Klingon Storyline. Recruits who succeed against these Enemies will be rewarded through the use of each recruit’s own Receiver.
  • This is represented by the Klingon Receiver Window. This UI is accessible to Klingon Recruits by using the [Encrypted Klingon Receiver] that they obtain during the tutorial mission “End of Watch”.
• Like Gamma Recruitment previously, there are no weekly server-side goals to pursue as Klingon Recruits during the event window.

Klingon Recruit Character and Account Rewards

• Completion of Klingon Recruit goals provides certain rewards for all level 20+ characters on an account. Once the Klingon Recruit character has reached level 20+, the Recruit can also claim other account-wide rewards from past Recruitment events by visiting the Temporal agent at each faction's social hub:
  • Philip Crey at Earth Spacedock.
  • Commander Q'on in First City.
  • Subcommander Kail at the Romulan Flotilla.
