Changes on Tribble to Investigate Officer Reports quest.

**************************************************

From zer0niusrex - Cryptic Studios Team

  • The Foundry daily missions have been replaced.
    • The existing daily missions have been removed.
    • Now, all qualifying Foundry missions will automatically reward a scaling amount of Dilithium and skill points/expertise.
    • Dilithium will be rewarded based on the average playtime of the mission.
    • All spotlight missions will reward the same as a qualifying mission, with two exceptions.
      • Once every 24 hours, the first spotlight mission completed in that time frame will get a bonus 1440 Dilithium.
      • Once every 24 hours, the first spotlight mission completed in that time frame will get a scaling amount of Energy Credits, based on the player's level.

This is big to me because fleet marks arent included.  When many asked they got this response.

Cheers,

Now they had talked about reducing and removing the Fleet Marks but I cant find any info that they actually have done this.  I'm left with the uneasy feeling they will remove this from the quest leaving only STF and similar efforts to gain them.  Worse they havent ever said they want to reduce the costs of Dil for base items (that Ive seen).

As a footnote reports are you get 1500ish Dil for an hour and a half mission (one of the ones their testing).  

I just hope they have a way to avoid missions where you afk for several hours and then pay out.

Looks like this went live yesterday...and it's complete crap. I'm so tired of Cryptic screwing with game mechanics that people actually like.

Yea, i did manage to get us a bit of marks, a few more when I get my alt into the fleet, but its just not a good change.

Tholians on nakura prime and STFs are all thats left.

Yup and according to DStahl that's the way its going to stay. They claim the Fleet Marks being part of the Foundry was always mean to be temporary...they sure as hell didn't say anything to the player base, there's a 125 page thread on the forums full of people who think, as I do, that its a lousy change and that they basically snuck it in on us without so much as a whisper.
