Mission Text

The best chance we have at defeating the Vaadwaur is to build an alliance of all Delta Quadrant species.

Some of them will need convincing. Go out there and show them that it's better to have us as a friend than an enemy.

Goal

Patrol the Systems of the Delta Quadrant.

Objectives

• Patrol Delta Quadrant Systems
  • "Satellite Defense" (Kelsid System Patrol)
  • "Preying Upon The Weak" (Farn System Patrol)
  • "Blockade Runner" (Zahl System Patrol)

Notes

• Originally released with the Delta Rising expansion, this mission was a verbatim variant of the retired original Starfleet Sector Patrol missions, featuring gear rewards and instructions to complete the Ram Izad System and Zahl System System Patrols, and the added step of contacting Rai Sahen for orders before entering the Xiokel System. All Delta Quadrant patrol wrappers were removed entirely with the release of Season Twelve: Reckoning in 2017.
• “Friends in Unlikely Places”, “Know Your Enemies”, and “Better with Friends” were re-introduced with the release of Season Eighteen: Awakening and its new patrol launcher. They consist of the five patrols introduced to the system with the update, and their rewards were reduced to only a small amount of XP and no gear. They are also not required to complete Patrols; all Patrols currently unlock upon reaching Level 10.
