Just completed the Requisition R&D Assistance doff assignment

Requisition R&D Assistance
Cost 1,000 Dilithium + 48 hours completion time

Results:
Magnesite (common material) x 8
Tritainium (uncommon material) x 4
Verteron Particle (uncommon material) x 7
Z-Particle (rare material) x 4
Beta-Tachyon Particle (rare material) X 3
EPS Regulator x 1 (uncommon component: Cannons, Science schools)
Plasma Capacitor x 1 (uncommon component: Engineering, Ground Weapons schools)
EPS Conduit x 1 (uncommon component: Beams, Shields schools)

Questions:
What is the cooldown time on this assignment? I'd like to know so I compare the results from multiple runs.

Does anyone have a rough idea of how this compares to gathering crafting resources from other sources?

For the time required and the dilithium cost does anyone think this assignment is even worth repeating?

    My results are as follows:

    4 Trionium Gas (Common Material)
    4 Tritanium (Uncommon Material)
    3 Thoron Particle (Uncommon Material)
    2 Ejecton Systems (Rare Component (Projectiles and Engineering Schools))
    4 Craylon Gas (Very Rare Material)
    4 Trellium-K (Very Rare Material)
    1 Common Systems Engineer DOff (Tooltip unviewable - Likely an R&D School Specialist)

    Unfortunately I cannot collect these rewards and reset the mission since I tried to collect them with a full DOff roster and can not recollect them. However, the 8 Very Rare Minerals and the potential R&D school DOff gives me the impression that this is a good mission.

    So not only is it a crit to get one of the special doffs but the quality is also random? Urge to permanently write off the crafting revamp rising.

    There is no critical success chance in this mission, but it is random whether or not you get a DOff, let alone a high quality one. However, getting Very Rare components does sound like a good incentive considering they can cost 1,000 dilithium instead of 20,000 when acquiring them through that mission.

    After running this mission on another toon, I received the following:

    8 Duranium (Common Material)
    8 Trionium Gas (Common Material)
    4 Z-Particles (Rare Material)
    1 Plasma Capacitor (Uncommon Component - Ground and Engineering)
    1 Emmiter Module (Uncommon Component - Beams)
    1 Power Surge Regulator (Rare Component - Beams)
    1 Emmiter Array (Very Rare Component - Science and Shields - Worth 5,000 Dilithium)

    In 2 days, I'll have more results from 5 toons.

    The job is in the recruitment menu on the personnel officer for each faction. The duration is 48 hrs and it seems that the cooldown for it is an additional 48 hours, allowing to repeat in 96 hrs (every 4 days).
    For now it seems the easier/faster way to get purple particles. :rolleyes:

    I had Gumerra (the blue research lab ferengi) as a result on Holodeck a couple of days ago. I have him double now since I had already gotten him for maxing out the previous crafting system. I also had a white R&D officer on a klingon alt, next to the other results in both cases.

    I see a few of the components listed as worth XK Dilithium - how is that number arrived at?

    How can you know a component's worth in Dil. I'm worried I might be missing something important.

    I'm guessing that is the amount of dilithium required when crafting said items.

    Also, to get the assignment you talk to the Personnel Officer at Starfleet/Klingon academy.

    Found the guy in Rom Command. But he wouldn't talk to me. Is the some requirement? Lvl? Unlock mission?
