Yeah, Red Alerts are great like that, TBH I’m actually glad they’re back because JFC I seriously gotta beef up on dilithium reserves. I just realized today that the Competitive rep’s Prevailing Regalia gear costs 16k dil apiece…and that’s with the t6 discount! Aaggh. This gonna take a while lol
Oh yeah true, Red Alerts can be completed pretty quickly too!
Don’t forget about the recruitment rewards and admiralty rewards which can be used toward Rep dil.
