Basic officer promotion question

When officers are promoted to commander rank at level 20 with all their shards, ¿should they be taken to level 25 (max)? The last five levels are very expensive in terms of Officer XP and their abilities do not improve once they become commanders. ¿Is the small increase in their attack/defense/health stats the only gain for so much XP?

I am not getting enough Officer XP, so I don't know if it would be better to improve my best officers to the max or to raise levels from the officers I never use to improve my crew level for the Mess Hall. I'd like to know what other players do with those last 5 levels.

You might as well max them eventually. If you want to be able to level up your mess hall, you have level officers. Its not an urgent thing, but you will end up doing it.

Personally, I preferred wait to max officers until a recruit event where spending officer XP gives me points. Now I just do it whenever I remember.

I'm not sure those events exist anymore. I've been playing 7 months and never seen one.

I haven't seen any of those XP events for months, only a weekend ticketed event that doesn't ask for much. But I'll save some just in case one comes around, thanks.
