Just played Infected Elite during the Rep. Mark event, got 75 Omega Marks and one neural processor, but no Dil. Are all the rewards having troubles or has Dil for STFs been removed entirely this patch?
I haven't been getting any dilthium from stfs and its not in the reward list so im guessing its no longer apart of the reward table, you do get a personal assignment to turn in 5 borg processors for 1k dilthium, which seems to be the way to get dilithiun from stfsand is to low in my opinion, they drop from elites so its basically 200 dilithiun per elite...
Im hoping this isn't the way it is, but we shall see, most of S7 im liking but the continued path of cashing in is just making me play less, Im not tight with money but after a few hundred extra dollars on locked boxes and stuff and not alot to see for it, and the appearance we have to buy dilithium to keep up with all the things to do in the game, im past resenting it, im will be done with it
I will still spend my 50 bucks on a vesta pack and play from time to time as i spent the money on life but the extra 100 odd dollars a month i could and sometimes do spend on the game , i think ill invest elsewhere where i feel like im getting return on my money, and thus not having the enjoyment taken away, after all I play to have fun not be ripped off
I do hope it's a bug or them just turning it off until they get the numbers finalized. Otherwise that's just crazy removing Dil entirely. The reputation system for Borg requires Dil, removing it from the rewards for STFs entirely sets even less well with me than when it was briefly 480 for Elites.
After running Infected Space Elite and Khitomer Accord Space Elite with my fleet, I can sadly confirm NO Dilithum was rewarded for either run, We did not get the Optional in ISE due to player drop in run, but did get it in KASE. The Omega Mark's did drop just fine, Icarus Elite was testing the Rep Bonus hour event. Before the patch of today I know there was a amount of 960 Dilithum rewarded for completing a Elite STF.
I am not sure if the Dilithum reward was removed or is just a bug, there is no point about this issue in the release notes. With the increased number of tasks that require Dilithum I find it hard to believe they would strip the Dilithum from the STF's after the out cry of anger when the reward amount was reduced causing them to increase the amount to the 480 and 960 amounts we were receiving yesterday from the STF's.
As a Fleet Leader and a true 1,000+ Lifer, I have come to expect changes but this change is going to fly with the players of this game. I hope the dev's will find it in their hearts to please allow us to still earn Dilithum from STF's as they are a main source, and with the ever increasing need we can't lose sources of those purple rocks.

The designers had a desire to see more people playing the Fleet Actions by making Fleet Actions the best source of Dilithium. Keep in mind that STFs will reward Dilithium AND Omega Marks - and Omega Marks can then be converted to more Dilithium after you've hit max level in Omega, so it may seem just be a short sighted argument.
I understand you relying that info, but that is not valid for this thread as they had changed their minds after that post, It went from 240/480 to 480/960 for the runs, now nothing is being rewarded as far as I and my fleet have seen on tribble.

The only thing this change accomplishes for the demographic which I belong to (stf dil grinders) is now I have to spend extra time every day grinding tons of really boring dailies just so I can maintain the rate I have now. Tons more work, same reward, bad change.
I wouldn't mind it getting nerfed a little. It does seem like a lot when I can do maybe 3-4 stfs and get my full 8k for the day.
My complaint is that now I am forced to play content I didn't want to play, not because it's now a better source, but because my preferred source is no longer a source at all (Add to this the fact that doffing now costs thousands of dilithium so I have to save for that on top of all the new reps, so I can't even just settle for having less income).
There's a very big difference between encouraging users to play some content that's underplayed, and forcing them to.
Give us the dil back for stf?s. i spend a lot of real money in the store, but I swear i don?t spend more money for anything from z store in the future!

But they seemed to work before the patch.
The Cure Found (Normal): 15 Omega Marks, no Dilithium
BTW, is 15 Omega Marks right for a Normal where the optional's been achieved?
EDIT: Infected Space (Normal): 15 Omega Marks, no Dilithium
