It pays for almost every ship upgrade in the game, and you get it by mining, from your station generators, and from loot. Tritanium has no grades and no refining. Every node gives the same resource, so the only questions are where to park your miner and how fast you can fill it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_you_need_tritanium\"><\/span>Why you need tritanium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tritanium is the ship resource. Parsteel builds your station, dilithium funds your research, and tritanium tiers up your ships. Every hull tier and most component upgrades pull from your tritanium stock, and the costs climb steeply. A low-level ship tier costs thousands; end-game hulls ask for billions. If a ship upgrade is grayed out, tritanium is usually the number you are short on.<\/p>\n<p>Keep your Tritanium Warehouse leveled as you go. Big tier-ups fail if your warehouse cap is lower than the cost, even when you technically earned enough.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_get_tritanium\"><\/span>How to get tritanium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mining.<\/strong> The main active source. Park a survey ship on a tritanium node and empty it. Systems and crews below.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Station generators.<\/strong> Your Tritanium Generators produce it passively. Upgrade them early, then collect often, because sitting resources invite raids.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Daily goals and events.<\/strong> Mining events pay out tritanium directly, and daily goal chests include it at every level.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hostile loot.<\/strong> Destroying hostiles pays out resources along with the rest of their loot.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Raiding other stations.<\/strong> Hitting another player&#8217;s station takes a share of their unprotected resources, tritanium included. At higher ops levels a good raid outpays hours of mining. Just expect retaliation.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/missionsleitfaden\/\"   title=\"Star Trek Fleet Command Dienstreisen\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3703\">Missionen<\/a> and the Battle Pass.<\/strong> Steady but smaller amounts.

The tables below are the reliable ones by stage of the game, verified July 2026. A node empties when you mine it out; lift your ship off and set it back down to reset it.
