Mark rewards for normal STF got nerfed and atm thats what ppl play most if you look at the queue. Guess Cryptic didnt like the fact that ppl dont bother with the forked Advanced mode and rather play normal to get the daily dilithium.
Infected (Space Normal) gave you 55 Marks before patch, after patch = 45
The Cure (Space Normal) gave you 50 Marks before patch, after patch = 45
And again it is all about the dilithium, before the patch you were able to make 920 dilithium with one STF.
You got the 420 for the STF and could turn in the 50 marks for 500 Dil. With 2 runs that makes 1840 dil.
Now after the patch, you can only make 1340 with 2 runs.
Well done Cryptic! Do you really want to turn this game into boring grindfest? This is the western market, not Asia! We dont like grindfests here.

Bleah.
Thats why i said indirect. By earning less Marks per STF run, you have to run more STFs to be able to convert the same amount of marks into Dilithium.

Ah, I gotcha. Reading comprehension is my friend. :rolleyes:
Rising? Hell, Swinging is more like it. Amazing that the Lead Designer (Captain Gekko) will probably an end-bonus and promotion in Cryptic even after this utter design debacle and COMPLETE failure on his part.

oops i am sorry guys, this was some fail on my side. Till now i did not notice that now you recieve 750dil instead of 500 when you turn in 50 marks.
I want to apologise for this, yes sometimes i should pay more attention. Weird that they didnt mention this in the patch notes tho.
So again i am really sorry.
Yeah, that is because we have a dillithium bonus weekend, has nothing to do with the patch.
lol yeah just remembered.. so yeah.. i am not sorry. *lights up torch* again..
I didn't mind buying Zen to top up my dilithium when I was feeling lazy but now you *must* buy Zen to get anywhere. My fleet was already struggling and is now dead. I can't get the new rep items because of a lack of dilithium. I can't craft anything because I can't get materials. I can't upgrade anything because there's no decent way to get ec.
Bottomline: I won't be spending any money for the foreseeable future. Hell after Ive done all the new content I'm gonna take a long long break.
