I was thinking, with the past few years ive played Star Trek Online and many mistakes ive made as a new player and even new mistakes now, id like to shed some light on the topic of Retrain Tokens. Its an idea ive had for a long time after spending more then my fair share just to reset my skill tree, Lately ive opted to restart my character to avoid spending money i did not have. At a small price of loosing out on Former achivements and lockbox exclusives. This hasnt been the best playthrough for my main character to say the least. But enough about me
Id like to help New players, and old find a better alternitive. Making the game play a bit more enjoyable, with out the cost of real money, Why not make the retain tokens an ingame purchase either with Energy Credits or Refined Dilithium. Most of the previous games ive played have made retraining a bit easier to do, why should STO be any exception? I know, Its only 300 zen points but you still have to pay ten dollars. Whether or not this change happens or adjust to fit a ten dollar expence, is unclear. But for the sake of having this experiance ruin game play in my time of playthroughs, i can assure the developers of STO that bringing the Tokens into a in game currentcy would help newer player avoid the possibility of grinding their characters back up

You get a few tokens free as you level up. Subscribers and Lifetime Subscribers get additional free tokens.
Also, you already can buy tokens for dil, through the dilithium exchange. dil > zen > tokens.
Only while you subscriber.

No, you don't.

I have a few characters that received one when they added the Miracle Worker specialization. Perhaps that is what you are thinking of.
I've been a LTS since 2014 so I haven't had a reason to keep track.
If the part I italicized is the case, then they need to dump that Fleet and find a good one.
Bad advice.
I run my fleet, and I don't force anyone to pay Dil. Some still do, but nearly 90% of my Dil income from 12 toons goes into the fleet, and the rest on my main.....so I should leave my fleet should I??
Fact of the matter is people hoard Dil as it is. The opposite, kick those who refuse to help out, could also be applied. This is a no-win scenario.
I disagree. Fleet owner is not fleet member. Owners of tiny fleets often do need to put in much more dil than other members for the chance to be the space king. That's your choice.
No GOOD fleet extorts large weekly dil taxes from its members with threats. It's fair for a fleet to expect a certain amount of contributions once to gain access gear, and to contribute enough to replace the fleet provisions they use. Beyond that, perhaps some small ongoing support but not "most of their dil" income as said above. Demanding most of their dil makes you a space tyrant.
(I'm in two good fleets. I've contributed several million dil to their holdings over 3.5 years, but that was my choice, not space taxes.)
