How about a mission that costs 1 energy and takes a like 1 thousand times to complete.
Players of all levels might have a little bit of energy left before they use an energy cube or tri matrix artifact and rather then waiting until they have enough before doing a mission they could complete this mission.

Players could if they wish complete it straight away with enough energy but then they would have to suffer the consequences of having to wait for to recharge unless they wanted to waste some energy.

+1 I always have 3 or 4 energy left after doing missions before i use a tri matrix and i hate waiting till i have enough energy to completely drain before using it

I'm the same, i'm a micro-manager of my ship and I love to make sure I squeeze a use out of every drop of energy I have. A mission like this would allow me to do just that.

+1 from me.

Go smoke a cigarette while you recharge to 5 points, come back and tap an NPC...

Seriously though, I don't think this idea is needed. As you progress in the game, your recharge rates will keep increasing to the level where 1 point of energy is relatively meaningless. If you're looking to use a trimat or ecube, it means you're going to continue playing, so stretch your legs, troll the forums or whatever for a couple minutes.

If something like this were added, I can imagine the griping already.... 1000 clicks?? I don't have time for that!

I already get energy every 30 seconds Darth, but I still want it.

thats why it isnt supposed to be done all at once

I know that. Unlike some around here, I do actually read the posts before responding. Unless there would be a "max clicks per day" coded into it, anyone with enough energy who still needs completed missions for tier rewards, is gonna do it all at one time... The intended purpose of the mission isn't going to stop that.

@ Matress, you're just greedy is all

it would only count as 1 mission towards tiers awards

Just make it 1 energy/round, reward 2 exp/round, no reward for completion, repeatable, so nobody would have any other reason to do it.

something like a medical mission to beleaguered colonies
