I was reading the forums and someone said "8k dil a character thats like 10 min at ESD" while I hope that's an exaggeration I'm guessing I'm doing it wrong. Whats your secrets for earning DIL fast?

That and the Dilithium daily missions are easier and go alot faster if you and friends plow through them.

Just got my f2p carrier last week so I am watching the screen a little more at the moment :rolleyes:
It's funny because I would gladly pay say 5 $ for a few pixles but for 20 $ I can go out and get full games.
Then at one point I was about to give up and just buy the last few zen I were missing but found you can only buy certain amounts, say 100 zen
Ah well but so it turned out for the better because I was so crazily proud when I got it, 100 % pure work but also for putting in so much work without going crazy
You can make crazy EC from the Doff missions as well.
Farm contraband (Klingons especially by raiding freighters), distribute it to your other characters, log in to turn in a couple times a day. Since the nerf a little while back (where it only took 3 contraband and 2 hours) its gotten harder, but its still something well within reason to get 2k per toon per day. However on the exchange that contraband can also be 250k EC, so its a question of priorities.
The foundry button-push dailies plus the quiz, 1920 more. Find a daily near the quiz area, save yourself some more time.
Explore Strange New Worlds plus Explore B'Tran Cluster, 2880 daily. Save yourself some travel time by queue it up, wait 20 hours, go do it, queue it again immediately (since the cooldown timer starts when you first accept the mission, not finish it), do it again, collect 5760 every other day. Means you only have to travel out there every other day, or alternate toons or whatever, save some more time.
Breen dailies for another 2400, use the same 'trick the timer' setup to save the travel time.
Eta Eridani stuff (Sh'mar freighter, fix the satelites, protect the deuterium) is another 1440 takes maybe 10-15 minutes to run.
Lastly, Elite STFs pay 1100 a pop, plus salvage that can be turned in for more. Till you get burned out anyways.
Also, lots of multitasking. I read a lot of news while in sector space and load screens.
You can get 8000 Raw Dilithium pretty darn quick each day without really breaking a sweat. If you have a group of Friends, or interested Fleetmates, There's a PvP mission you can get anytime that rewards 1440 Dil for 3 Arena matches; and STFs also give Dilithium on completion.

God, lvl 60 CW. 17k.
LTS, here since...when did this game launch again?
1-1.5 hours is realistic per toon as the KDF equivilent to B'Tran is 'path of the warrior', 5 missions all over the pi canus sector worth about 4k if done right (bout half an hour). The deferi dailies, trailus and sh'mar are my daily speed run: 20 minutes total, and if those and the daily 3 don't pop my 8k nut there's always another tour of alpha/bravo sorte or an 'explore X sector' mission trio.

Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
It gives you 480 dil unless they nerfed the hell out of that too recently.
I'm certain it isn't a dilith reward (KDF side). I gives you loot, 3 surplus deuterium cans and up to 4 computer parts. When 10 computer parts are reached (about 3-5 runs) you get offered 'salvage dispute' mission, good for about 2k dilith.

I think he means how you get 8000 from missions in a day.
Might want to check again. Just did it on my KDF sci. Received 480 dilithium and deuterium.

"Quiz area?"
What quiz?
In the Academy areas of your faction, there should be a Loresinger (KDF) or a "Midterm test" (Starfleet). For KDF, it's the NPC near the center of the main academy arena area and the Starfleet NPC is behind a desk in a building outside the main Academy building.

@DevolvedOne
when I do that for 30 days = 4620 Zen in a month.
...

Now all I need is something KDF to spend it on...

KDF toons.
8K a day for 5 minutes work [per toon]>>
Go to Pi Canis, pick up marauding assignments.
Go to Regulus, pick up marauding assignemnts
Go to Sirius (when you hit marauder 3+). pick up marauding assignments
Go make a sandwich, take a nap, watch a movie
Recieve contraband
Turn in contraband, log in every four hours to refresh
Done.
Scan console @ First city for S+G with officer reports for 1440 + some free FMs
And the other thing, 8k dilithium is nothing, compared to the price of dilithium store stuff.
I doubt all these take up only 5 minutes of your time. it's probably around an hour, or at least 40 minutes.
Also grinding doff missions may be slow but you can get a couple of hundred from them as well.
Finally STF's and Mu Events also give you a couple of hundred hear and there
and finally the dilithium mine near Bajor offers a daily as well but to get the most of that it's best to due it during the event
Theres the ones I use I normally only have one fed and KDF but also multiple characters doing the contraband farming it always recommended as well

You are correct, it's been a while since I looked at the payout after doing that mission.

TY, I KNEW I wasn't imagining no dilith award, thats why I didn't recheck the payout after making lvl50.
