I will pay one upvote and one meme to whoever can provide me a step-by-step written guide on how to unlock, farm, craft and level up a Thar’ga gunship and it’s modules/weapons without using any premium currency. I just can’t for the life of me figure out how to do it!
…well if it counts… I almost have the resources I need to make one and I haven’t payed a cent for it… because I haven’t been trying… because I’m still working on acquiring the [Tyrant]…
assuming you played every day from the 20th to the 17th. And done all the dailies.

what he said
also: send ships via gage, 10 parts with regular ships, 15 if you send r8 and r11 destro, max 20 days and you get 10 structures for free and with 200 panels you need 100 xenos to make a tharga, idk about the xenos but by all math you should be able to have 100 by now. So far i saw 3 chances of getting a tharga.

I wasn’t playing over Christmas so I don’t know how to grind these alien panels and structures now. Is the only way by sending ships? If so that’s total BS
Well… there were chances and you missed them, by sending gage missions you still can get 10 structures and 200 panels by doing nothing much over less than 20 days by my math, the only problem is you have to wait for the next xeno opportunity, so far there were 2 missions giving 30 xenos, if you did them you have 40 to go. What else can i help you with? 
Orca, your math is not correct(or complete).
20 days, if just standard ships are sent.
17 days, if you send at least a r8 dessy with the fleet.
14 days, if you send a r8 and r11 dessy with the fleet.
I was joyful to give my answer, but then I remembered, that those xeno are practically not really farmable(barely if you stay on theta and do the bs requirements). So yeah. You can only hope for this over the next month to get enough of all 3. 
I wasnt doing any math xd I just knew that max is 20 days everything else is less, the xeno stuff will be a problem, everything else, not so much.
Right, and once I have these materials I just manufacture the ship directly? What’s with those four spots on the first page that say “previous level required to unlock” and “rank 9 required” when you mouse over?
IDK what you mean but once u make the ship u still need the same parts to unlock nodes from the UI.
That “ship” is pit without end for our money. You will waste time to grind materials to build one and you will get R5 gunship without special weapon and modules. Then you must throw real money or grind probably 1 year to level it up to R15 and build modules and guns on the way. To build one you need 200 plates, 100 xenocrystals and 10 fighter structures, but then you will need bilion plates and zilion xenocrystals + credits, synergy and task to finish to do something with it.
Dev should give us all 10 of elydium ships to choose you like and want grind for but NO, we are served with one to grind without telling us that this ship you dont even want to fly will cost you your time and money, but you must do that if you don’t want to be left behind.
Yesterday i was wondering why i wait over 5 minutes for r15 battle, and just look at reviews on steam - now i know why. Sorry for little offtopic.

Well,nobody tells you that you HAVE to get the ship to R15,I think I just researched one cap node from mistake and aside that I don’t think I will do anything on Thar’Ga for now,I think I’ll level the recon or the LRF,oh and the destroyer of course.If they were to release ALL 10 ships at the same time the patch would be huge,there will be a lot of information to disclose,and of course it would take a lot of time to be done,more than one year most likely,so just wait,craft the ships and don’t do anything on it,just keep it around,you will get the fleet strength as soon as you craft it so technically there isn’t too much of a point in evolving it if it doesn’t fit your playstyle,that if it consists of lots of manoeuvrability and great regenerative capabilities,stacked with another bunch of powerups.
Also,some reviews are good,others are bad as they are about bugs or server issues,and then there is the p2w complaining spam,would be great to get rid of those but then it would just get worse by having them to blame us for “hiding the truth”,so just ignore those.
OK i exaggerated a little about billions and zillions but after spending 200 plates, 100 xenos and 10 structures you see evolution tree with most nodes for 16 xeons on ranks 5-7 then same nodes cost you 18 xeons when you reach r8. To build first special weapon you need to buy 1st bonus for 50 xenos and 50 plates + credis and synergy, then buy blueprints for 16 xenos, then build weapon for xeons, monos and materials.
Your only option without real money is to send gage missions with R8 and R11 destroyers for 15 plates daily (10 without destroyers) - thats easy. Now you must ONE time weekly win 15 special operations for 30 xenos (45 with license - i don’t know if that count for none money for you), and if you have time do 4 mission (every 6 hours) daily for 4 xeons (6 with license). So weekly you can earn 105 plates and 142 xenos (213 with license).
Well that’s not too bad,don’t expect to evolve the ship right away,it has to keep you busy,but if you want to bypass all of that then that is your problem,not everyone can afford to spend money on a game,especially people that don’t have any kind of consistent income(I am one of them but I’m barely 18 so finding a job will take a while…).

I see few targas on R15 killing everything else so perhaps p2w complaining spam its not just spam if we should not evolve that ship right away.

Have you taken a close look at what they are killing?They could be destroyers that were focused,Thar’Ga’Tok and Thar’Kth have double damage against them,or any frigates,fighters or interceptors that don’t bother to maneouver too much around,I mean,the inhibitor swarm will make sure they wont at all,that combined with a tackler can be worse than a Stasis Gen,kinda,so with or without help,in the hands of a proper pilot they can be deadly,I can rack up scores just as good as theirs with standard covies,they aren’t that much different right?

The structure of this ‘evolution’ is deeper than you know. Xenos become the real issue.
Assuming you can or have built it the ship, if you didnt/cant unlock the BP for both weapons then daily progress on the levelling of your very own customised alien bs stops, mission does not change and no way to cancel it.
Only ways are…
Buy up some gs for random bundles (2 euro from me, i got lucky)
Go into os and search using gs scanner for the missing amount (again lucky i only had to find one and did so in 1st mono mission area)
Forego the actual optimisation of the ship an level it using max points on the wheel to R11 using weekly grind out spec ops xenos then again every week till you have enough to craft the weapon. (R11 is required for the alien kinetic weapon)
Im sure this mission ‘bug’ may well be resolved but if its really a tech race then many players have been hobbled already.
I believe u owe me one upvote, i want it more than this house fire of a ship.
I build Thar’ga today, first upgrade costs 55k synergy and 2 xenos, next are more expensive. I stared gage missions 13 April and I finish it today, without destroyers. I see first missions (I not do gage mission before) give less panels - 6. After some days 8.
