Next up is the Romulan Faction Store located in the Factions section. You get to the Romulan Faction Store by clicking on the Factions button in the upper left of the main screen (Figure 187). In the Romulan Faction Store there are a multitude of valuable items that you can purchase but your access to them is dependent on your Romulan Reputation level (Figure 188). While the items that are most important will depend on you and your current circumstances, here are some items that I recommend looking at when you have access to them: Federation Message Exchange, recruit tokens, ship blue prints, badges, cloaking shards, and materials. Although there are many useful items in the Romulan Faction Store, the Federation Message Exchange will be the only item covered in this article as a part of the Daily Grind.

The most import item within Romulan Faction Store, in my opinion, is the Federation Message Exchange (Figure 189) which can be used to obtain Romulan Credits. To purchase the Romulan Credits in the Federation Message Exchange you will need to obtain Federation Messages. Federation Messages are obtained by killing Federation Scouts. Killing Federation Scouts may also apply to your Daily Goals as explained in the Daily Goals List in this article and will help your Romulan Reputation as discussed in the article Faction Tips: Gaining Respected Status in All Three Factions.

Once claimed the reset timer for the Federation Message Exchange is 22 hours (Figure 190). You will want to ensure that you obtain enough Federation Messages so that you can purchase the Romulan Credits on a daily basis as this is a valuable resource for obtaining Romulan Credits. And, Romulan Credits can be used to upgrade officers and purchase ship blueprints among other things.

NOTE: What you see in the examples below may differ slightly from what you see in your Romulan Faction Store as the items available are based upon your Romulan Reputation Level. For example, at the Romulan Respected Level the Federation Message Exchange option will cost 180 Federation Messages for 350 Romulan Credits (Figure 189), but at the Romulan Glorified Level the Federation Message Exchange option will cost 1,000 Federation Messages for 630 Romulan Credits.
