Well, I'm back after being gone for a few years and I've seen they've done major changes to Fleet.


1. How do you get the currency/resources to upgrade your fleet/do fleet projects?


2. How do you transfer said currency from your person inventory to the fleet?

    Resources come from many areas

    Fleet Marks: Only come from certain queued events (ex: Fleet Alert, Starbase Defense, Colony Invasion)

    Common Duty Officers: Come from the exchange, from grinding down higher rarity DOFFs, from the free academy missions, from Duty Officer Packs

    Commodities: Come from various vendors or the exchange

    R&D Materials: Drop from every queued event

    Dilithium: Drops all over the game

    Other materials: Come from various places, but arent required to level base, so not worth listing

    Just to add, The Projects on the Fleet Contribute tab, are set by Fleet Leaders, and certain Fleet ranks based on Fleet Policy and Leadership.

    Outside situations involving with Tier 0 to Tier 1 upgrades, a Fleet leader can set a either a Fleet Provisioning or a upgrade project in the top two (or Three for the Starbase itself) Project lines. The third (or fouth) line will be upgrades and only see limited use. Most Fleets recommend you donate to that slot (when available), in some cases even not slotting in other Projects until after this one is filled.

    The final Slot on all Fleet projects are "Decorative" projects or Fleet Credit Generators, usually have small requirements and have short "cool downs" of 30 minutes.

    If every project has a "timer" on it. You'll need to wait it out. Some Large Fleets have this issue, but usually Fleet leaders will have another Project waiting to go.

    If there is not a project slotted and doesn't say "No Upgrades Available" or similar, contact the Fleet leadership.

    Thanks for the Help so far, but how do I get Dilithium and Fleet Marks?

    On a unrelated note, how do I get rep so I can unlock extra trait slots?

    Take a look at the PvE Queue (button under minimap). There is a column that will show you what rewards you'll get from each of those missions. It's not 100% accurate (e.g. borg STFs give dilithium in addition to Omega Marks but that's not listed as a reward in the PvE UI) but it'll serve you well enough if you only want to see which give Fleet Marks.

    For more specifics on dil, see here:

    As for reputation, it unlocks when you reach level 50. Then you play the PvE missions (or battle zones) that reward you with the specific type of reputation Mark that you need in order to advance that reputation. The rep window is available from your Status screen.
