As with any massively multiplayer online game, Star Trek Online becomes more entertaining the higher your level. The quests become more complex, and you better need to have more skills. Also, like another massively multiplayer online games being able to level quickly is far harder unless you've already done it. In order to alleviate that difficulty other option is the Star Trek Online Handbook which can show everything to make way through the quests and levels quickly and easily.
The STO guide can help you level up far faster with detailed guides on Skill and mission walkthroughs. From ensign to admiral you will know the fastest way to gain levels so you never find yourself wasting time trying to complete a quest that is too easy or too difficult. It can also help to ensure your character is well made. It does this through aiding in understanding the skills, helping you to customize your ships weapons and equipment and earn credits faster. The most important thing is the Star Trek Online has free updates and will continue to change, so this Star Trek Online guide is updated in order to stay relevant with the new patch.
The STO guide is not a bargain basement product. This guide has a resonable price which is similar to many physical guides. Still, if you plan to play a lot of the game then the actually cost for the amount you will use this guide is not bad at all. This in little or no more than the guide for a typical console game. These games are a maximum of 100 hours and you are unlikely to play through the game more than once. With Star Trek Online you can play hundreds of hours with a single class of character and still have use for the guide if you decide to play another class and even more use if you play a Klingon. It will also help you choose the best equipment sets for the type of character and class that you want to play.
Star Trek Online becomes considerably more fun as you advance through the ranks and a good guide is going to be well worth picking up simply because it lets you advance through the ranks and complete the missions without having to resort to trial and error. So rather than walk blindly through the game and try to learn things other people have already figured out get some help with a guide.
