Do Nitains come at a specific time?

[(PSN)CaptainIMalik]

Yes, I'm looking at the twitter alerts but I can't always check

I just need one Nitain to build Inaros. This is making me willing to sacrifice sleep

They show up approximately every 6 hours I think.  So 4 per day.

I know that when they were added the patchnotes said they would happen at least 4 times a day, but I don't know if there is any particular time that they happen. 

You also have a chance to get them from Sorties (yay?) and Sabotage caches, so you may be better off running those missions instead.

Not anymore, you don't.

 

And let's be glad for it. :)

This part of the most recent patch notes actually made me sad.  As someone who still needs a fair amount of nitain, sortie reward prospects seemed like a shining light.  No more, though. :'(

Exactly! I'm glad they're gone but also sad because I need so much more!

This ^.  Work on other parts of the game, and run them as they pop up.

I think you are wrong. I am keeping track of Nitain missions and they come approximately 5 hours.

When you need 20 nitain for Booben Prime ;(

[Mortarion]

Yeah, I was actually so happy to get  3 nitain from sortie rewards before it was removed. It finally allowed me to complete Booben Prime after farming nitain for 10 days XD
