Cryptic slash dilithium earning on [Dilithium Mining Claim] -RESOLVED

These claims require 735 points to gain the 5000 dilithium. In previous Dil weekends that would double to 10,000.

This has been reduced to 8747 dilithium at 735 points, earning more points does not increase the reward. Is this intentional?

    I would say this is not a traditional dil weekend. In other words - on the official dil weekend the mining claims get preferential treatment of 100% bonus. Here they are getting 75% only.

    As Sheldon said its not officially a dil weekend so not 100% bonus on mining claims. Its 75%. It was the same during the Delta recruit dil bonus, the claims gave the percentage for the reward earnt. No one is losing out on anything this weekend its paying out what was promised

    As stated above, this is not a normal "Dilithium Bonus Weekend".

    As an apology for the unusually long maintenance downtime, Salamiinferno (Steve Ricossa) has decided to do a 75% Dil Bonus Weekend as stated in the following thread.

    http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums#/discussion/1191854/extended-downtime-thanks-for-your-patience

    First off, I would like to apologize for an incredibly long stretch of emergency downtime. I know how frustrating it can be when a game you're planning to play is unavailable. I'd like to take a moment to explain why we were down for so long and how we're going to compensate you for this inconvenience.

    We've had some problematic hardware in our network for some time, but have had trouble triaging exactly the best way to deal with the issue. The malfunctioning hardware has been the cause of regular stability issues on Holodeck for some time, but we needed a solid plan for replacing and integrating something new. The extra maintenance Tuesday and the extended maintenance today enabled us to completely replace the problematic hardware and integrate replacements. This update is nothing but great news for every Cryptic game, including STO. The maintenance was successful but took significantly longer to complete than we'd hoped. Again, I truly apologize for the inconvenience.

    As I mentioned before I know how frustrating it can be when a game you want to play is down. My goal is to ensure everyone in the community can get into the game, have fun things to play when they're in there, and earn great rewards. Since the game is up now I'm going to make good on the other two goals right now. From shortly after this post through Monday at 10 a.m. we'll be running a 75% Dilithium Bonus weekend, the Elachi Red Alert event which includes a 50% mark bonus to marks awarded by that event, and I'll be extending the Summer Event by a day for those that couldn't get in today. I hope these bonuses, and our continued commitment to creating a smooth and stable play experience will make up for this necessary but unfortunately long downtime. Thank you for your patience, and I look forward to seeing all of you in game this weekend!
