Citation for Barak? Spock?

I finished leveling my 3/4* Barak from Gates of Hell He's been one of my priorities lately since even at 3/4 he's my second best CMD for shuttles. Of course, he'll be overtaken by T'Kuvma when I add a 3rd star next week, but his CMD is still quite good.
So I'm wondering if I should use a citation to give him his final star. It will raise both of his base stats by ~100 points. I don't really have any other immediate plans for my honor (I have Kahless), but it just seems like a lot of honor to throw at a single 4* character. I'm really thinking it's not worth it since it's not like I'm planning to vault him or anything, but is there some reason I should be giving this further consideration?

Somewhat related: I also have 1/3* Spock begging for honorable citations & have no idea when he might start dropping from the time portal. He's the only crew under 4* I haven't immortalized, and that's pretty much the reason i'm thinking about it since i'm not really low on space at the moment. Anyone else get less than 3 from the event in which he was featured then consider using citations to finish him? again, the cost of honor vs. what we can get in return seems somewhat...not great.

  • He is firmly in the class of 'all base, no proficiency roll' characters. So he must be 4/4 to get all of his value. As your second best command crew? Worth it IMO.

    Spock... Probably not. Assuming you don't use 3*s for anything.
  • Well, it costs the same amount to buy a citation for one 4* as any other 4*. Is Barak a better choice than any of your other 4*? Same question for Spock vs. your other 3*.
  • If you want to immortalize Spock over other characters then it makes sense to buy the other star. If you have other characters that are more a priority then it doesn't.
  • If you immortalize Spock, do you keep or freeze him? If you need a crew slot, get him immortalized and into the vault. As BSG stated above, Barak has no proficiency, so the 4th * on him is beneficial for missions and shuttles. Either way, another immortalized crew gets you one point closer to the next achievement which is 750 chrons.

    I *only* buy citations for legendary characters, the SR characters come up so often youll probably pull him in a pack eventually. That said, if you need the space then I would only buy citations for 3/4* characters you intend to vault.
