    The foundry unlocks when you buy a subscription. I don't believe theres a lvl requirement, but I was at 50 when I bought my sub and it unlocked.

    Do you mean what level you can play foundry missions, or what level you can create foundry missions? If play, I'm not sure. If create, as others have said, you need to be a gold member.

    I don't think you do, I know I have foundry slots, you could buy them for 10k Dil, I did just to have a look at it. No idea on level requirement mind.

    I was asking for someone else. I'm a lifer for some time and I had no idea.

    What level can you edit/create them was someone's question.

    As said, you dont have to be a lifer, but you do need to spend 10k dilithium to unlock 4 mission slots.

    Unless things changed you get 4 slots by default with your sub, and can buy more if needed.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. There's no way to access the foundry before getting a subscription then?

    If you're talking playing a Foundry mission - you just click on the Foundry tab, pick a mission and accept it.

    If you're talking creating/editing a mission you want to publish for others to play - you just need to buy slots with refined Dilithium OR subscribe and get 4 slots.

    BUT - a subscription ISN'T required for Foundry access.

    From the gold/silver perk matrix link:

    Foundry Creator Access
    Foundry Creator Access - Silver = The Foundry can be unlocked with purchase of Foundry Project Slots.

    Ok, good to hear. I can get 10k Dilithium I think then. Already over 3k from a foundry mission I played earlier. Thanks everyone for responding and to Cymerian for posting the thread for me.

    I think you can. I think it unlocks around the same time as Doffs

    the thing that is limited is access to tribble

    it shows as unlockable here

    You have to buy the slots. You DO NOT have to have a sub. I am a silver player and I have a few missions in the works. You just have to buy the slots with zen.
