Unrefined Dilithium

So does anyone else have an issue with an over abundance of Unrefined Dilithium? Its just a thought, but it would be nice to dump some of it into Reputation Equipment, instead of letting it continue to pile up every day. And yes, I know you can farm Dil on other toons blah blah, but when you have one toon with over 900k unrefined dil, and nothing to do with it except watch it grow in size, well, kinda depressing really. Not saying flood markets or anything. But it would be nice to use.....

    Dumping Unrefined Dilithium into Reputation Equipment is just another (lightly veiled, and indirect) request to circumvent/up the Refinement limit. And is therefore not going to happen. :)

    What they could do, is provide some sort of conversion to Fleet Dilitium with a Project if your Fleet has a Tier III Mine. Give those Remans something to do.

    My Discovery Character is now down to 1.9 Million Unrefined from a high of 2.4. I literally stopped Admiralty on that Character months ago and only run Doff Assignments for eventual conversion to Fleet Marks.

    I remember a few years ago someone complaining here that they wanted the Unrefined Limit to be raised from 10 Million.

    Nope. Not gonna happen. As you yourself said, play on more characters. Consider the 900k a blessing that you can freely refine every day without worrying about.

    And those players are fairly rewarded for their dedication to that one character. Others are rewarded fairly for their dedication to playing 2, 3, 4 or however many characters they have put the time and effort needed to make them viable dilithium producers.

    If Cryptic really wants to make it easier for fleets to hit Dil requirements. Why not offer a 1/4 value turn in for fleet dil pool. Reputation gear is just another way to escape the 8k daily. Having said that considering the outlandish cost on later Fleet projects... why not.

    One problem with the economy right now is most people are in fleets that are done... or have unlocked everything they care ab out anyway. Leaving little reason to do anything with dil other then burn it, or convert it to zen. Its not a coincidence that the dil exchange started going up as fleets started finishing colony tabs. Making it possible to farm Fleet only dil at a 1/4 the value penalty, could spur a few new fleets... or people trying to further level their one man/small group fleets. I am sure plenty of people have been turned off starting new fleets due to the sheer insanity it would take to level a new base, lab, spire, colony ect ect.

    If even 50 new fleets trying to start daily projects hit the game the dil exchange would probably drop 20%.

    Nope. This is just a variation on raising the dil cap and triggering dilflation, which is now a FCT with dev answer:

    (Because that "use" means you skip using refined dil, which puts more defined dil into the market. Dilflationlarity will ensue.)

    This is covered under the FCT list. Please refer to the list in the future. /thread
