So, on the Thursday Cadet Challenge....

Which Elites drop good loot? Since I will be doing the Elites for Ten Pulls, instead of Epics for SINGLE PULLS {logic much, DB?}, which Elites drop which things that are harder to get, for equipping people and whatnot?

    All this information is on the wiki.

    Good loot is a subjective term.

    Thanx. That area could be a little better organized {just saying}, but it at least gives you some idea of what is what.

    You can always browse the rewards before running a mission.

    Yeah. There is that. Since we can do six a day, I might just rotate through or something, if there is not something I need specifically at the current time, somewhere.

    Like on M/W/F, I mostly do the Epic 2, because I know sooner or later someone is gonna need an IDIC for something. Mostly.

    EDIT TO ADD: I might make a list tomorrow of each Mission's drops, then I can have the reference if needed later. I can even post it here, if no one will get upset.

    I run the mission that drops wrenches and medical lessons (I think it's the second one). None of the others drop anything useful to me.

    Wrenches come in handy for some of the Engineers.


    Thanx,

  • I find that if you need 2 of an time and cadet challenges has it...you'll usually get only one or zero...so I don't really see cadet challenges as a great source for basic faction items...hope you have a better time getting what you want from em than I do. Just this week I had to spend 150 dil on tickets to get one more basic medical experiment!

    That is rough. I just used an IDIC, from my stock of them, for someone. Mostly been farming them for when they are needed later. {Since three Vulcans kind of showed up in the Avatar list this week or last.}

    I used to always run the second mission on elite which drops MED experiments, until all of a sudden I started to need 1* SCI experiments which drop from the 4th mission on elite...and now that I'm trying to finish Apollo it's back to the MED ones for me!

    Mission one drops Linguistic Texts which is a pretty high demand item.

    The medical lessons on elite two are the best mission for me since having them in stock saves you from using medical experiments to build lessons for all the med crew.

    Several of the other items mentioned earlier can be farmed for chrons but the medical experiments can’t and are about as hard as holoprograms to get from shuttles.

    If only they'd drop. :p

    I tend to view Cadet missions as more of a short cut for satisfying demand. Sure I could farm Medical Lessons and sometimes do that but I use relatively few of them. That's why I farm the Exo-Linguistic Texts. I can spend chrons on databases and text books but I often need all three items for many other things. It could also be I don't have MED characters to level currently. I haven't desperately needed Medical Experiments since I finished leveling Mirror Phlox.

    Its like farming EAS for Science Experiments, Translation Algorithims or Encoded Communiques. There are other things I farm instead but EAS is an efficient means of providing them.
