I am currently investing in 2 fleet ships and have 2 other close up and wanna give them the full fleet treatment, weapons, shields, Drive, Deflector and consoles.
But when you are in a large fleet its very annoying (not the fleet, no. The fleet is great) to earn so many fleet credits.
Your only chance is to spend dilithium which is still not as easy to get as many peole say it is, because all other slots are filled fast on the fleet projects. I have spent some zen on Dillithium and STFs and so on but still...
50.000 fleet creds for a console, more for shields, impulse and 20.000 for each Weapon plus the 8.500 Dilithium each is quite a lot. Not talking about the 100.000 Credits for a Fleet carrier pet.
Why cant the consoles be the same price as the weapons. And wy can`t we get a exchange for everyting including dilithium, zen, Latinum, and consoles. like the forex exchange. Exchange everyting for everything including Rep system stuff. Not so much Char and account bound stuff please
And i would like to have more options to earn and spend fleet marks (and of course get a more realistic number as reward.
Problem across the board for big fleets I'm afraid.
One possable solution would be to see if your current fleet leaders would be willing to let you leave temporally to get credits in a smaller fleet, then invite you back. (hopefully your fleet doesn't have that annoying "once you're out, you're out" rule)
It's not myfault ifyoufeel trolledbymyDisco ball...Sorry'boutit.
Yeah but why do they want so much for the darn consoles and weapons? If you think about it you spend lots of time and "money" to get them probably DOffs, Dilithium and fleet marks . Basically a Fleer weapon ia woth up to 28.500 Dilithium But if you Discard it for another tupe you get nothng. THey are worth 27.000 EC not more so you get 12.000~14.000 EC from the REplicator. And the same time you have to spend twice as much to get a normal duty officer which brings you just 300 Fleet credits.
That is the stupid thing in STO, things cost far too much and ther real value is too low. Why not the option to exchange Fleet weapons one type for the other? When i am tired of my layout i go to the Fleet starbase and exchange my current type A weapons for the exact equivalent Type B weapons, Tetryon for AP. Or i get a discount on new stuff. Nothing.
The fleet ships are cheap compared to that but everything else, on the exchange or in the fleet is totally overpriced because greed knows no boundaries.
My fleet operates 12 Starbases, so when someone wants to donate something that the fleet they are in doesn't need, they just hop over to another one and donate it there. It works rather well.
