I successfully raided an Xecti Governor, but there was nothing to receive from it (just a yellow badge, no minerals). BUT, Equal Opportunity did NOT count it as a successful raid. Here are the screenshots to prove it.

You got the count towards the disable of a Xecti, because you actually disabled the ship. You didn't get the count towards the Raid of a Governor, because the game doesn't count raids that result in 0 minerals/artifacts stolen. |

It should. The description of the medal says "Raid a member of each playable profession." I did so successfully, it SHOULD give me the point for it. |

Photon's right. Nowhere in the description does it say you have to get minerals from it. It just has to be a successful raid. I think she should be credited with this. |

It should look at the yellow badge drop and then the profession. |

At least there isn't an achievement (That' I've seen) asking to kill 1 of every race while they are disguised as a dark smuggler. If you happened to be a Xecti disguised as a Dark Smuggler, I can imagine you would be rare enough to be alerted just so people could finish the medal using you |

The description of the medal does not in any way indicate that the raid even needs to be successful. Especially since Governors and biologists are so rare, I submit that the medal should count even failed raids! How annoying would it be to disable one of these professions and get failed raids repeatedly because their crew is much larger than yours, whats more what if you do finally get a success and it's a 0 resources success? This seems an important issue to fix for medalists. |

The Medal Description has been updated to reflect that points need to be taken for medal credit. |

For clarification, why is it that a successful raid which doesn't yield minerals or artifact points does not count as a truly successful one? Just out of curiosity on this one. |

Then why bother getting the yellow badge for it? If it doesn't yield anything, and it's supposedly "not successful", you shouldn't get anything for it. |

That is a good point. |

It's not the fact that I'm complaining that we get a badge, but if it's not really deemed as a "successful raid", then why are we getting rewards for it? To ME, if you get ANY rewards at all, that's something you've done CORRECTLY, and that should also mean that you get this reward as well...it's just my thoughts. |
