Ever feel like you are the poorest Vice Admiral in the fleet? Want to save ECs to purchase that special weapon, equipment, or very rare ship from the Exchange? Here's a useful guide to help:
**Please note, Exchange prices change constantly and may not always reflect posted prices. Items sold are either by using the Exchange, or finding a random vendor to sell a console. Always check existing prices of the console/weapon you want to sell to get the most/reasonable amount profit.**

Miscellaneous ways of earning Energy Credits:
*Winning 1st Place on Starbase 24 - Very Rare Console/Weapon XI - can sell between - Dirt Cheap to 11mil *BEST WAY (for me)*
*Children's Toys Doff mission - Very Rare, and difficult to craft the "most desired" Mk XII console
*Tour the Universe Event - Very possible to earn 1,050,000 ECs in 3 runs (or slightly more if you go though the "easy" sectors, 350k in 1 run
-best if your ship has the Assimilated Subtranswarp Engines
If anyone has discovered more ways of getting good ECs, feel free to post them here.
