To maximize your progression during the limited-time 60th Anniversary event in Star Trek Fleet Command, log in daily to complete each chapter of the Five-Day Mission arc, delay repetitive tasks until matching Special Milestone Events (SMS) go live, and prioritize high-utility officer shards and rare progression materials over standard daily resources in the Event Store.

Five-Day Mission Arc Progression

The 60th Anniversary celebration features a time-gated, five-day mission chain. Completing daily objectives unlocks subsequent chapters and serves as your primary source of event-specific Anniversary Credits.

  • Log in daily: Chapters unlock sequentially over five days. Missing a daily objective creates a credit deficit that limits your store purchasing power before the event ends.
  • Manual reward claiming: Mission rewards do not always credit to your inventory automatically. Check the Events tab daily and manually claim your earned Anniversary Credits after clearing each task.
  • Prioritize over routine grinding: Focus your immediate play sessions on completing the event mission objectives before resuming standard base-building or baseline research grinds.

Aligning Play with Special Milestone Events (SMS)

Special Milestone Events (SMS) run alongside the main mission arc, offering bonus Anniversary Credits for completing specific gameplay actions like hostile combat, mining, or ship upgrades.

  1. Check the Events tab before taking action: Review active SMS objectives and rotation timers before committing resources or fleet stamina.
  2. Hold routine activities: Delay daily hunter tasks, ship upgrades, or mining until an SMS requiring those exact actions becomes active.
  3. Complete milestones to supplement credits: Earning bonus currency from SMS events is essential if you plan to clear high-tier items from the Event Store.

Event Store Spending Priorities

Anniversary Credits are only usable in the temporary Event Store during the event period. Because credit totals are limited, avoid low-tier or readily available resources and focus on gated progression items.

Player-Level Considerations

  • Mid-Level Players: Focus your spending on officer shards or components that directly boost hostiles-destroyed capacity or mining throughput.
  • High-Level Players: Direct your surplus credits toward the rarest upgrade materials that are otherwise locked behind long research trees or faction reputation walls.
