 ** Ideally, you also find '''one''' person you trust who can reliably help you with your work and also load fuel, and have that person be the only one who enters the engine room besides yourself. That minimizes the risk of you being turned by a {{Skill|Trapper}} until the Mush have been taken care of.
 ***Again, {{Character|Janice}} is ideal for this, as you will be in contact with her anyway, and she will always be around the dorms with {{AP}} to spare.
-*The most efficient way to repair PILGRED as Phys/Tech Raluca is to work 2-3 times before every relay if your partner is unskilled. With a {{Skill|Technician}} it is [[Media:PilgredRelay.jpg|virtually the same]] whether they relay you every 1,2 or 3 steps, but more are ususally better if it saves you {{MP}} from walking.

 ** As long as Mush are on board, getting PILGRED to more than ~60% (or ~40% as Phys/Tech) is dangerous though, due to the risk of an early return to Sol. Once you reach that region, put the repairs on hold until it is safe to continue. Otherwise you become a risk merely by being alive, even if human, as you could be turned or body swapped.
 ** As a {{Skill|Physicist}}, your {{AP|PILGRED}} points will be useless once the [[PILGRED Reactor]] is done, and they alone may be enough to get the job done over time. So it is often better to '''conserve your {{AP}}''' for [[NERON Projects]] and/or repairs rather than putting them into PILGRED as well.

 :{{Skill|Technician}}: The same bonuses on PILGRED and Plasma Shield as a Physicist, but Tech points instead of PILGRED points. Also bonuses to more NERON projects. The more versatile choice, if available. Finishing PILGRED is usually not time critical, and general repairing lengthens a ship's lifespan.
 :{{Skill|Detached Crewmember}}: Easily Raluca's worst skill. Taking this as a Bronze player is like taking {{skill|Determined}} on Bronze {{Character|Hua}}. Don't do it.
-:{{Skill|Genius}}: Possibly worth it if the Plasma Shield is within the first three projects in the Nexus. Otherwise you're crippling your potential. Highly situational.

-Raluca's primary objective is to get the [[PILGRED Reactor]] working. She can also make great contributions to key [[NERON Projects]] thanks to her unique {{Skill|Physicist}} skill, even more so whe she is also a Technician, Designer, or Genius. As a {{Skill|Technician}}, Raluca can also assist with maintaining the ship in order to free {{Character|Terrence}}'s {{AP}} for {{Item|Support Drone}} upgrades.

 However, Raluca has a unique trait, {{Trait|Antisocial}}, which causes one point of morale loss when in the same room as another player at the end of a cycle. This usually hampers her {{AP}} regeneration, as she will rarely find a place to sleep unless she gets a (second) {{Item|Sofa}} in her chosen restroom, which is usually one of the rear turrets (to avoid contact with people coming through the engine room).

-:A low-level Mush Raluca is a mixed bag: She has a great excuse for being {{Status|Dirty}}, but is generally restricted from using the dorms, which leaves her with little {{AP}} and little reason to leave the rear of the ship. {{Skill|Trapper}} is often her method of choice to spore people: Trapping PILGRED or the Nexus to turn her coworkers, trapping Icarus Bay for more anonymous (but also less targeted) infections, and Alpha Bay 2 to target people like {{character|Terrence}} who are gathering and using {{Item|Scrap Metal}}.

 :A ''Physicist-Technician'' Raluca in combination with {{Skill|Transfer}}, on the other hand, is a formidable danger to the ship with only the smallest bit of help - from other Mush, or gullible crewmates - as she is liable to rush PILGRED to completion and [[Aim_of_the_Game#Infiltration_of_Sol_or_Eden|return to Sol]] (by taking possession of the current {{title|Commander}}) at any time if not watched closely.
