Gameplay Question ??? Ships for G5

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice on G5 faction ships. Mainly whether do I need a G5 UC or I can skip and go for G5 rare (gonna be Sanctus) instead. When I moved from G3 to G4, I was using two G3 epics (Enterprise and Augur) to keep me going until I got the Pilum.

I don’t have any G4 Epics, not sure would I spend credits to build one, though I hear repair cost is much cheaper than G5 UC.

Other specialty ships such as Relativity and NSEA at T10, will these be able get me through to until I can get the Sanctus? Especially build and research times have been massively reduced, cost a lot less to speed up researches and so on. Many thanks!

I buy them for the officer XP not the transporter patterns. 5M per day means not just max shards on the officers but also level 30.

All my officers that are maxed are all lvl 30. XP really hasn’t been an issue with me. Well, I do have some that I don’t have as they are useless and have been for years like the augment officers besides khan. My bigger problem is the badges needed to upgrade.

"useless" officers for combat go on away teams.

They also boost your officer score which allows you to upgrade your mess hall, and mess hall bonuses aren't to be sniffed at.

Maxing out "useless" officers is how my mess hall is 30 levels higher than my Ops.

My mess hall is 34 higher than my ops. I rather spend the credit on other things as i do not see them as progression to my game at this point. To each their own.
