    Endeavors and Admiralty are the two things I do daily. I spam the Klingon and Ferengi Toru of Duty's for Fleet Dil Vouchers for my Fleet, and Ferengi to keep my toons topped off on Dil. Every time one of my toons hits 1 mil EC, I put it in the bank.
    However the best EC maker for me has been selling Very Rare Fleet Duty Officers on the exchange, especially Very Rare Technicians.

    You can search for Tour the Galaxy routes. There are a couple of really good ones out there. I have not looked too deeply into it, but I would imagine that a person could use Episode Transwarps to trim some time off as well. I mean, you have 15 minutes to complete it but that doesn't mean you need to use all 15. Maybe that's a project I will tinker with.

    What I do is make a new character, usually fed. As soon as able, I get my account unlocked cnidarian defender. Then I do patrols one after the other for ships. Within an hour, they are at least level 20+. With the recruitment account bonuses I have (temporal, gamma, Klingon, delta, etc), at lvl 20, you can claim about 3/4 of the overall prizes. I get the money, put it in the account bank with any items I want to transfer, convert the 8k dil into zen, then delete the toon and start over. You usually get 3mil EC+, crafting items and 16 zen within 1 hour timeframe id not less time….

    Right now, I just do endeavors and admiralty on all of my characters, doing Klingon and Ferengi missions to get more dilithium and EC rewards, plus 40k fleet credits with the Ferengi campaign.
    I tend to just chuck everything in the replicator when I get loot because I either forget or don't care about vendor prices. I know it's probably cost me a few million over the years, but it's not that big a deal.
    I really do need to get ship built for the Tour mission though, get used to do that every day.

    • @Stu1701
      @Stu1701  10 дней назад

      yeah, you'll have to open up the boxes the fleet duty officers come in to sell them. Price will depend on the kind of duty officer, as it is a random drop, some will be more valuable than others. You'll have to look up that type of duty officer they are and what abilities they have (which you'll be able to do in the duty officer menu) and compare them to others on the exchange to determine a good price to sell at.

    As much as I appreciate the videos that people make to teach us how to do these things, it is getting really ridiculous how expensive things are on the exchange despite the fact that Star Trek takes place in of post scarcity society meaning money doesn't really have a lot of value anymore. And yet somehow here we are having to Shell out millions of EC just for a character trait just so we can do +0.2% more healing. Yes this is a commentary on the fact that things cost so much and STO plus the fact that healing gear always seems to be more expensive for healers in social games literally for no reason. Despite the fact that healer is probably the least played class in any game. The least that they could do is at least provide some sort of incentive for people to Play support roles in video games because they are part of the glue that holds the community together along with the people who teach us stuff!

    I made in other games so much gold with the auction house (WoW, EvE) here in STO with the excange i kinda made easy EC but the market is challenging and not stable. Prices at some items fly up and down but if you use profession aka RND you can make easy some mil each day with no stress.Don't take for good my RND strategy, i am still a beginner but i manage to get all my items from exchange i needed (Fr ex. Crit officers, traits ship,kits, items for ground and space)in just a few weeks. Now farming in patrols is not good unless you are at the very start of the game or you need items for salvage endevor. So in STO buy cheap/sell high is risky unless you are looking for the some high price items all the time and hope you get lucky.

      I'd like to point out that the Gamma warp core and assimilated engines don't stack anymore, so you only need the Gamma core now. Learned that the hard way a couple days ago. I think Omega Force engines might be the best now because of the slipstream cooldown bonus.

    When I played sto actively, I tried most of these EC grinding methods. TTG is good, but can be really boring. A patrol run will net you about 300-500k EC, which is alright, too.
    But you will make a lot more money playing the exchange.
    I needed billions of ec for my dps build, made maybe 100 million through conventional grinding, but around 20-30 billion EC through exchange flipping. Takes some effort to get into it, but much better in the long run.

    • @Robotrik1
      @Robotrik1 2 года назад

      Yes and no .
      Exchange flipping may have helped you personally, but the flipping itself is part of the current EC inflation, and is one of the few main reasons that you "needed" so much EC in the first place .
      Flipping is an endless game of one upmanship, often between people who already have Billions of EC , and always at the expense of the sto community as a whole.
      Once I understood that, I stopped doing it .
