Seriously all this dilthium nerf complaints is just a Fed side concern - if you want more dilthium and free EC roll KDF alts
Who do you think keeps the exchange flooded with contraband - the Feds with like 2 per toon per day? No roll a KDF and with a good doff crew pull in 50+ per day
then there are so many dailies that you can max out a toon in an 1 1/2 tops - at least 4 can overlap
And you get so many prisoners from the contraband missions you turn those in for dilthium too
And you get several hundred thousand EC from selling or recycling the loot generated as well
and on and on - KDF players are swimming in Zen/ec/dilthium - the real problem is there is not enough good stuff to spend it on.
Any KDF player who denies this is A)incompetent or B)scared that Cryptic will hit them with the nerf bat
So don't just sit here on the forums and complain about it - start up several KDF alts and let the contraband flow baby!!

Given their track record for doing things KDF-side, I'm not convinced Cryptic will care. :rolleyes:
If there's anything in-game that allows players to amass Dilithium without too much effort, you can bet your TRIBBLE they'll care...
To rob a line: [quote: Mariemaia Kushrenada] Forum Posting is much like an endless waltz. The three beats of war, peace and revolution continue on forever. However, opinions will change upon the reading of my post.[/quote]
There's the current situation to consider too. And assuming what's next is not gonna help anything, quite the opposite.
Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.
Unless they want to kill the KDF off I think they will leave it as-is for now - the KDF pop is too small at current for them to be worrying that KDF players are maxing multiple alts in short order.
Now "IF" the amount of KDF alts was to double or triple then maybe - but for now it the only guareenteed easy way to amase dilthium in game.
Just 1 good alt could supply your Fed toons with enough contraband to run it 2x per day - as long as you don't have more than 3 or 4 toons:P
It's also worth noting the KDF only has one fleet action compared to the Feds three. I've actually been using a fed alt to grind dilithium/drops while my Klingons fleet action is on cooldown. It's honestly a more efficient use of my dilithium grinding time, since I can make tons of EC in the process,
Pleaszzz they have known forever that the KDF keeps the Exchange flush with contraband - it's no big secret
Also it makes sense KDF finds more Contraband and Prisoners anyway.
there is a BIG difference from 2 contraband on the Fed side per day to 50 on the KDF - lol
Collecting contraband on Fed side is a joke - rolling a KDF toon is the only good use of your time as far as farming goes. Not only do you get Prisoners to turn in for dilthium - you get Torps,engines,ship weapons, enough commodities to fund your starbase projects - you need to have lots and lots of bank space - sometimes I can't complete some of the assignments until Ican off-load all the stuff and prisoners.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised.
Because the KDF actually believe in all that stuff - which is to say stealing, looting, prisoner taking, etc.
It's not really something the Federation does. The Federation just gets a ton more everything else, and it's not like commodities are that expensive. And also, Fleet projects are geared towards 25+ people helping build them.
lol this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
system Lord Baal is dead
- Confiscate contraband from crew (up to 3 on crit)
- Strike against fugitive support network (5 on crit)
- Trade latinum for contraband (3 on crit)
Of course, KDF gets those, as well as many others.

No, if you're extraordinarily lucky you might get 11 from those assignments on ONE day. You're not going to get 11 a day with those assignments.
I was not even including that - I was just talking about Marauding missions - like the 45min strike missions, the 2 hour taking the frieghters and the 8 hour strike at base missions
Those are where you get the bulk of Contraband,equipment,prisoners, and commodies
But any KDFer worth his weight will be able to hit the 8k cap in just over 1 hour of play just doing the dailies
So that leaves the contraband for you to sell or transfer to all you Fed alts
With the Massive superiourity of Dilthium and EC farming anyone is just stupid to not roll a couple KDF toons
Before reading the replies...I bet you just made a lot of people hate you. Also, it's obvious you are posting this out of spite and want it nerfed.
To be fair, you can reach the 8k cap in about an hour on the Fed side too - run three Fleet Action dailies for about 6k, the SFA lore for 500 and turn in contraband. If you're also running all the science and exploration assignments you should be able to buy enough contraband from the particle traces you sell on the exchange.
Wait what? Who hate me for giving players the knowledge of what they can do to overcome some of the dilthium concerns - KDF players? This is silly unless they are worried about a nerf?
But I don't think that is likely - it's been this way for a long time - it's just worth it more to roll a KDF toon now.
And no I don't want it nerfed - I get most of my stuff from maxing out my KDF doff missions.
My thoughts exactly. Every exploit that gets discussed on the OFFICIAL GAME FORUMS gets nerfed.
Kit swapping, shield-switching, most of the dilth-sources fed-side... others that I've forgotten.
OP: I Don't understand why you would even consider mentioning this here, at all! we can expect a nerf within three patch cycles now.
Thank you for ruining it for the rest of us.
Obviously, the two you mentioned Fed characters get aren't from marauding, either.
I'm sure Cryptic realizes a large amount of contraband is obtained through marauding assignments. That's most likely why they upped the requirements for the 'Turn in contraband' assignment.
Except for maybe a few over-lapping KDF dailies - just what exploits am I mentioning??
This post is mostly about Doffing the KDF side - which was designed to reward this stuf - how can you call it an exploit?
I don't get what you are talking about.
Anyways I will load up my 3 KDF toons tonight with 20 missions each and post exactly what i get here tomorrow.
My guess is not too long, in the meantime I love wasting a Sunday on my KDF alts hauling in 60K+ worth of refined dilithium.
Long live the KDF!
huh it takes alot more than 3 Fleet actions to get 6k dilth, unless im missing something here....FAs only reward 480 dilth now. but the rest are still fine
