    It's the way of the game--aesthetics cost time/effort/dilithium. It's almost as if they're trying to keep the Phonics Boxes from destroying the Dil Exchange...

    Well this is one Fleet Holding that my Fleet is not likely to ever complete. We need our dilithium for other things.

    Make an alt if you have a Delta and/or a Temporal alt already. When they hit level 20, you get craptons of Dil and Fleet Marks. If you make it to 30 before you go insane, you get extra Dil and extra marks. Take all that and DUMP THEM into the fleet project. Delete said alt and make a new one.

    It's not that hard, so long as you have a Delta and/or a Temporal alt.

    Yep. Dilithuim is broken. if we're expected to be splashing the stuff out like it is candy at Halloween, then we need to be able to either refine more. or spend the ORE. as it stands the cap needs to be looked at.
  • ltminnsltminns Member Posts: 12,572 Arc User
    These asthethic things are Dilitium only costs. So somewhat of a sink. Phoenix is a Dilitium sink. Dranuur is a sink. The more Dilitium you take out, the cheaper it will be to buy Zen and the amount of Dilitium you get for selling Zen will be less.

    They haven't even patched up all the issues with the new Season, RELEASED TWO DAYS AGO, and we have cosmetic upgrades for this. Too soon. PERIOD.

    ...and the time.

    I suspect I speak for many who have several toons & alts already, in order to farm dilithium for pre-existing needs, that whilst this suggestion might make sense for a few, many more are going to baulk at the mere idea of creating another toon purely to feed dilithium hungry fleet projects, on top of any dilithium hungry crafting.

    yay, flower boxes...the amount of joy i am currently experiencing cannot be expressed in mere words​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    This is the worst grind ever created since Delta Rising! This is a time sink and indeed a blackhole of a holding for any but the biggest fleet out there. Specially now since the game is dying why make it now? Bring factions first and then this could have been rolled out. The worst time ever for this sinkhole.​​

    The plant holders may be for plants that are slightly less than legal in many states? Of course, those particular plants will need to be unlocked separately.

    Done.
    Or at least, should be...by the time I can sign on the game today.

    To what level do I have to get this Colony up to so can I see these planters?

    Nevermind...blog says they are available at launch....I assume I will see them once the project is done.

    Are you talking to me? I mean it is DONE.
    DONE....as in slotted and filled already and counting down, when I signed out last night.

    I am ready for the next vanity project.
    If it is pretty, again, I will do it. LOL!

    P.S...what I ain't doing is mini-games. Blech!

    Breathe deeply in through the nose, and out the mouth. Don’t you feel better knowing that you have contributed to Cryptic’s dilithium useage metrics?

    You'd figure they would want to get the Colony up and running before they put up the Christmas Lights. :)

    Maybe they were hoping the lights would attract more colonists?

    @ambassadorkael#6946 how about in the next project fleets can get a form of buggy or hovercraft that allows the player to move 3 or 4 times faster than they can by walking while on the Colony?

    Lights attract moths and mosquitos. We don't need anymore bugs on Dranuur. :)

    And by the way, if we are so environmentally aware, why don't we use rechargeable batteries instead of using so many throw-aways. ;)
