What is the uridium?

Uridium is the most valuable of the three currency resources, with the lesser valuable being Credits. Uridium can be earned in any of the following ways:

• Destroying alien NPC ships

• Collecting it at random from bonus boxes

• Purchasing it directly by Payment

• Receiving it as a reward from Quests

• Completing a Galaxy Gate

• Uridium is the most used currency in DarkOrbit due to many things and features using them, one of them beingShop. A recent addition that uses Uridium is Item Upgrading, which enables players to upgrade laser cannons, drones, and even the rocket launchers. But this does not come cheap, upgrading elite items, costs Uridium to upgrade which increases every time an item is leveled up, maxing of at level 16. The Tech Center is another feature which requires Uridium to build Tech Items instantly or with 100% urdium for advantages in fights. But the most recent addition are the New ships which all three of them cost Uridium to purchase. Although they are worth their price due to them having special abilities which give a major advantage in fights.
  Most players resort to Trade when they wanting Uridium-based elite items. This is one of the best methods of earning these items without having to spend real money. You can find more information abo

  Tips

  • Buy the Aegis instead of a Skill Design first, it has more abilities and they all cool down faster
  • Buy the first 1-2 Iriss then bid on the rest of your Iriss. Or bid on all of your Iriss. This method is a Uridium saver
  • Bid on all speed generators.
  • Find the pieces to build the Apis and Zeus, don't buy them right off the bat.
  • Buying RSB-75, CBO-100 is a waste. Don't bother to have those lasers.
  • Bid on all of the Vengeance and Goliath Designs (located at the bottom of the trade)
  • Bid on Leonovs, Vengeances, and Goliaths, dont buy any with Uridium.
  • If you focus on boxing, get the Uridium Pilot Points and a Bonus Box doubler.
  • Skip to buying LF-3s if you can, they are worth more than LF-2s.
  • Collect Palladium on the pirate maps for Galaxy Gate spins so you dont spend Uridium building gates or just getting ammo from the Galaxy Gate Generator.
    • Use only Galaxy Gate Spins for the Galaxy Gate Generator.
  • Get a cloak from Trade rather than using Uridium, then collect boxes on your company maps. You're sure to find some Uridium in there.
