Dilithium Gathering and levels

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
Hey guys, now first let me say I do want this to be more information gathering then another venting Thread (we have plenty of those if you need that ;) ) I would like to see how and where people are gathering their Dilithium, the rate they are gathering and your level.

The idea is to get a better idea of how people are getting access to this resource and how much they are getting at the different levels.

Myself I am at VA and get almost all my Dilithium from Doff Missions and STFs. With STFs obviously getting the most of it. I find to be getting with VERY casual play about 2 hours each time I end up with about 3-5000 each time.

SO...

Level: VA
Sources: STF and Doff
Rate:1500-2500 per hour

    Dilithium: 50-200 Dilithium ORE/ Day (fluncuates day by day)

    Level: VA
    Source: Dailies, DOff, Events, STFs
    Dilithium:
    • 8000-10000 per day from dailies
    • 500-1000 from DOff assignments per day
    • 1100 per STF (I can do about 10-20 per day)
    • ~1100 per Event (can do 5-7 Mirror events an hour when it's up)

    TOTAL: ~25000-35000 per day.

    That said, I won't be doing all these things every time I log in and play, but it's possible. I made 29k on Saturday night and I wasn't even trying. Of course when it's going to take 4 days to refine 1 days dilithium earnings, something is off.

    I like the per-day and per-hour metrics with respect to your average play style. This should not be tracking what you could do if you quit your job or gave up eating. We should get a more reasonable accounting of what you would do in an average day and what that would gain you at an hourly rate in Dilithium.

    Unfortunately my play is effectively 0 hours per day now. I just hit VA on tribble and can barely bring myself to log in. That being said, I am highly interested in these metrics.

    Oh ya not taking refiing into account, I believe (call me a dreamer) something will happen there, be it weekend event that lets you do more or a general cap raise. But it is interesting just now much you're able to make seeing as your doing basicly everying that makes you Dilithium.

    So I am using you as a bench mark for the HIGH end of the scale. :D

    Now we need more people and more mid level peps to jump in. Ideally I want to see what people are making at all rank levels. Who knows, for those that are upset about prices maybe we can get figures to support them *nudge nudge*

    Captain - KDF, about 300 to 400 per day from dailies. This is an average, some days and some missions brought in more, but I have refined nothing for a week and this is what my totals average out too. Playt about 3 hours a day.

    Playing on tribble I don't think I've ever brought in more than 2000 a day, after a few hours of play. Judging from my total stored dilithium, most days I probably only get a couple hundred or less since I only have about 8000 banked up on either of my chars. I don't do the daily grind stuff because I find them pretty boring (I rarely did them on Holodeck either... mainly just stopped playing instead). And with these test characters going into oblivion in a couple of months there is zero incentive for me to grind and acquire anything of worth. Everything I use is either bought from a vendor for EC, or picked up from a mission.

    Frankly, the vast majority of dilithium I HAVE acquired came from doing the "investigate officer reports" coupled with the fast "read the console" or "scan the targ pit" missions. That's honestly about all the grinding I can stand.

    For reference, my FED is RALH (maybe grade 2 or so) and my KDF is Capt (maybe grade 4 or 5).

    Anyone else willing to help with these figures or is this all the interest on real world Dilithium rates?
