Spending my Dil

Get access to the VIP lounge on Lower Drozanna for starters 😉.

Seriously, exchange it for zen if you’re not spending it on Phoenix upgrades.

You change it for zen?

You can exchange 500 dil for 1 Zen at the moment, although you may have to wait until someone posts Zen for sale: https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Dilithium_Exchange

I assumed that I’d need to buy consoles and equip from fleet or something

If you want to buy from the fleet stores, tactical consoles from the fleet Spire are a great option. Vulnerability Locators have a critical chance and damage boost. Each one is 50k fleet credits and 8500 dil.

You will also need dilithium when upgrading your gear, and great way to do it is by using the Phoenix Universal Tech Upgrades. They are obtained from the Phoenix Prize Packs (stack of 10 will cost 40k dil from the dil store). Currently, the event is running so you get one for free, but if you’ll want more – you’ll have to pay dil. Phoenix upgrade can be picked from the uncommon token so if you don’t want anything from the rare/very rare token, you can exchange them for uncommon token and pick the Phoenix upgrades.

You will notice how fast and easy it is to burn those 350k dilithium so make sure the item you’ll upgrade is your long term choice. So keeping it until you are sure what you want to spend it on is also a good option.

If you are just going to spend it then I would open Phoenix Prize packs. You can then spend the tokens on anything in the Phoenix Store. There are a ton of good things to buy in there.

Here is the most current list:
