    Not as good a freebie as the one yesterday, but not a bad one in the least. And I can actually use it, so bonus! :p

    Thank you.

    Better than yesterday for me. This Dil handout will go to my Fleet.

    What is a Dilithium Mining Claim for? All these years and I never used one.
    I can turn it in for Fleet Dilithium Vouchers? Sounds like something I can use for that Colony.

    Thank you!

    Quick question. Since this is on the promotions tab, does it have a time limit like yesterday's, or will it just stay there until claimed?

    It has a time limit. Claim it while you can or it will be gone

    It is normally a reward given in Lockboxes. Each claim allows you to mine the "Rich Dilithium" sites once. The single site awards 5k Dilithium if you get a score of at least 700 while mining (if I remember correctly) and is on a 20 hour timer, so once a day essentially. I generally save these for a bonus Dilithium event so I can get 10k. :)

    To exchange for vouchers there's an NPC inside the (non fleet) mine but fairly sure saving for a dil weekend and using it then will net you better results.
  • where2r1where2r1 Member Posts: 6,054 Arc User
    Uh oh... I have to go out in the Dilithium Mine to use these. LOL!

    I gave mine to my character with the least vouchers, one of my new guys from AoD.

    I gave mine to my Jem'Hadar because I am lazy....she is over on DS9 and doesn't have to traverse the universe to get to the mine place.

    It's good to remember that the vouchers are used at Vlugta and not the fleet mine.

    Here is me....messing up and falling off the platform at the Fleet Dilithium mine...and stuck in mid air.

    Don't ask how I keep finding those holes to get stuck in...that was just the other day.

    That's actually rather easy. On the up side it's impossible to get stuck there permanently.

    You can turn one into Fleet Dilitium or Reputation Dilitium at the Ferengi inside the Mining Base. You get 2500 of the refined Fleet or Reputation Dilitium. It does not double during Dilitium Events.

    This is something that everyone can use & having more dilithium is always helpful especially with the recent inflating prices. Cryptic, thanks for the dilithium for whatever amount because with this method it does help.

    The mine is easy enough to get to if you hail ishl and use the (now free) mission transwarp.

    Vouchers are account bound so I just dropped them into shared storage with the others to gather some dust until the next dil weekend.
  • tagentagen Member Posts: 545 Arc User
    The question was asked before, but I did not see the answer if there was one.

    Will there be a new item today (Saturday the 19th) or is the next one going up on Monday?

    Thanks.

    Almost sure there will be new item. But the switch is at 10am PST (Pacific Standard Time - I think it's called).
    there may be some delay (it happens sometime), but the Rich Dil Claims are not so precious that they would be avaiable more than a day - but such thing happened for a givewaway ship before.
    Edit:
    It is possible, that there will be no news about it though - it also happened before sometimes...

    I'll check in an hour or two either way, just to be sure. Thanks.

    The claims seem to be missing on PS4, having checked on various characters.

    Only item under the promo tab is the khan costume.

    Maybe because the anniversary give away is on PC as the thread title says "STOPC"

    Is the next one this T5 Ar'Kif Tactical Carrier Warbird Retrofit?

    If so, thank you for putting a ship in the giveaways. :)
    I just wish I could claim it for when my Romulan levels up rather than not being eligible for it.
  • saber1973asaber1973a Member Posts: 1,224 Arc User
    And we got next day - 3 ships (FED and KDF carriers and Romulan Ar'Kif - which is also kind of carrier.
    Nice, even if I already have all of them .

    But the page says it's until monday 21st - does it mean that there will be break until 23 january, or there will be another giveaways?
