[[File:SZ1.png|thumb|Dilithium Exchange UI]] '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a player driven in-game mechanic which allows trading of [[Zen]] {{zen}} for [[Dilithium|Refined Dilithium]] {{dil}} and vice-versa. Exchange rates depend on how much of one currency players are willing to trade for another, and such rates may fluctuate from moment to moment. == Accessing the Dilitihum Exchange == Accessing the Dilithium Exchange is accomplished by opening your [[Inventory]], switching to the Assets tab, scrolling down to the Dilitihum section and pressing the Dilithium Exchange button. {| class="hiddentable" |- | valign="top" | [[File:bz1.png|thumb|left|To access the Dilithium Exchange, you need to open the inventory...]] | [[File:bz2.png|thumb|center|...go to assets tab...]] | [[File:bz3.png|thumb|center|...and press the Dilithium Exchange button]] |- |} == Limitations == * {{Zen}} Zen prices are limited to the range 25-500 {{Dil}} for 1 {{Zen}}. * An order amount is limited to the range 1-5000 {{Zen}} per order. * An account may have no more than 5 outstanding (unfilled) orders at any given time. == Uses == {{PAGENAME}} can be used to buy Zen from or sell Zen to other players. It can also be used (with some risk) to transfer Refined Dilithium between characters on the same player account. === Buying ZEN === [[File:Bz4.png|thumb|Click to enlarge]] <span style="color:IndianRed">A:</span> This is the “Buy ZEN” tab.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">B:</span> This section displays the top offers to sell ZEN. :''Example'': row 1 tells us that there is 220,170 ZEN available for 125 Refined Dilithium per ZEN. <span style="color:IndianRed">C:</span> This section displays any outstanding offers you have on the exchange. If you wish to cancel an offer, click on the offer to highlight it and then click the “Cancel Offer” button. Canceling an offer will put the Refined Dilithium you put onto the exchange into your “Exchange Balance” (<span style="color:IndianRed">F</span>).<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">D:</span> This section is where you can decide how much Refined Dilithium you would like to offer to buy ZEN. All 3 fields may have values entered in them, and the “Total Dilithium to sell” field is automatically updated as you adjust the values above it<sup>*</sup>. :''Example'': if you would like to submit an offer to buy 100 ZEN, you would put “100” in the “ZEN to buy” field, and then the amount of Refined Dilithium you would be willing to pay per ZEN acquired – the “Total Dilithium to sell” field would then update with the total Refined Dilithium you need in order to purchase 100 ZEN at that “Dilithium per ZEN” price. <span style="color:IndianRed">E:</span> Once you have entered the information in the fields above (<span style="color:IndianRed">D</span>), click the “Submit Offer To Buy” button to confirm and submit your offer to buy ZEN. When you enter a buy ZEN offer, all the dilithium for it is taken from you immediately. If you get the ZEN for a cheaper price, or you withdraw your offer before it is completely fulfilled, you get that dilithium back. NOTE: ZEN purchased via the Exchange are bound to Star Trek Online. If there are not existing sell offers that match your quantity and price, you might get part or none of your order, and it will be fulfilled later when there is a matching sell order.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">F:</span> This section shows your current Exchange Balance. Canceling an offer will put the Refined Dilithium you put onto the exchange into this balance. Future offers will first pull from these balances and you can withdraw available Refined Dilithium or ZEN from your Exchange Balance at any time.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">G:</span> This section shows your current character’s Refined Dilithium balance, and your account’s ZEN balance. <sup>*</sup>If buying ZEN, the Refined Dilithium price must be set between 25 and 500 Refined Dilithium and offers must be set to at least 1 ZEN and no more than 5,000 ZEN. === Selling ZEN === [[File:SZ2.png|thumb|Click to enlarge]] <span style="color:IndianRed">A:</span> This is the “Sell ZEN” tab.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">B:</span> This section displays the top offers to buy ZEN. :''Example'': row 1 tells us that there is 162,494 ZEN available for 123 Refined Dilithium per ZEN. <span style="color:IndianRed">C:</span> This section displays any outstanding offers you have on the exchange. If you wish to cancel an offer, click on the offer to highlight it and then click the “Cancel Offer” button. Canceling an offer will put the ZEN you put onto the exchange into your “Exchange Balance” (<span style="color:IndianRed">F</span>).<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">D:</span> This section is where you can decide how much ZEN you would like to offer to buy Refined Dilithium. All 3 fields may have values entered in them, and the “Total Dilithium to buy” field is automatically updated as you adjust the values above it<sup>*</sup>. :''Example'': if you would like to submit an offer to sell 100 ZEN, you would put “100” in the “ZEN to sell” field, and then the amount of Refined Dilithium you are wanting to get per ZEN sold – the “Total Dilithium to buy” field would then update with the total Refined Dilithium you would get if your offer matched or beat an outstanding offer on the exchange. <span style="color:IndianRed">E:</span> Once you have entered the information in the fields above (<span style="color:IndianRed">D</span>), click the “Submit Offer To Sell” button to confirm and submit your offer to sell ZEN. When you enter a sell ZEN offer, all the ZEN for it is taken from you immediately. If you get the Dilithium for a cheaper price, or you withdraw your offer before it is completely fulfilled, you get that ZEN back. NOTE: ZEN placed in the Exchange will permanently bind them to Star Trek Online.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">F:</span> This section shows your current Exchange Balance. Canceling an offer will put the ZEN you put onto the exchange into this balance. You can withdraw available Refined Dilithium or ZEN from your Exchange Balance at any time, but you need to manually withdraw the ZEN in order to use it in a new sell offer.<br /> <span style="color:IndianRed">G:</span> This section shows your current character’s Refined Dilithium balance, and your account’s ZEN balance. <sup>*</sup>If selling ZEN, offers must be set to at least 1 ZEN and no more than 5,000 ZEN and the Refined Dilithium price must be set between 25 and 500 Refined Dilithium. ===Transferring Refined Dilithium=== Transferring {{Dil}} Refined Dilithium is a somewhat risky process that is possible between different characters on the same account. Transfer may be accomplished with a 2 step process: * The character sending {{Dil}} Refined Dilithium needs to create a "Buy ZEN" order for a low price that is below the current prevailing exchange rate. E.g. if the current prevailing exchange rate is 50 {{Dil}} / 1 {{Zen}}, one could create a buy order for 25 {{Dil}} / 1 {{Zen}} for the amount of {{Dil}} being transferred. E.g. to transfer 10,000 {{Dil}} one could create a 25 {{Dil}} / 1 {{Zen}} "Buy ZEN" order for 4,000 {{Zen}}, which will automatically deposit the required amount of {{Dil}} into the Dilithium Exchange from the sending character into their account. * The character receiving {{Dil}} then needs to log in, cancel the existing "Buy ZEN" order and Withdraw {{Dil}} from the Dilithium Exchange.<br/> There is a risk that the market could move against you after creating the buy order, in which case the buy order could be filled before the receiving character is able to cancel the buy order and withdraw Refined Dilithium. However, the greater the difference between the prevailing exchange rate and the price of your buy order, and the faster you are able to switch into the receiving character and cancel the order to withdraw the Refined Dilithium - the smaller the risk. * If the market did move against you - you will find that the buy order has disappeared and the account Zen balance in the Dilithium Exchange has increased by the amount of Zen bought with the order. In this case the receiving character could simply immediately create a Sell ZEN order, however this character would receive less Refined Dilithium than what was used to create the original buy order. == Links == * [https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/3043663-dilithium-101 Arc Games: Dilithium 101] [[Category:User interface]] [[Category:Glossary]] [[Category:Currency|*]] [[Category:Zen Store]]
