hi, i started this game a few weeks back, probably close to a month now. Just sweeting myself to death like everyone else. about a week after playing i pick up my first rifle and started hunting around the swamp pulling mobs off noobs that where sweeting, so far ive managed to git up to laser lvl 5. About the same time i started hunting i picked up my first disciple, Aralis speedy mcspear, it was a unique experience teaching and learn at the same time but hes doing well and is currently at 77%. Went on my first tp run not to long ago with a random group from port atlantis swamp to twim peaks, it took the majority of the day but was fun.Went on a tp run with society to neas....not so much fun way to many deaths but a good learning experience. Ive just started to dabble in crafting i have my mining,drilling etc all at lvl 1 and have also picked up tailoring. i figure i might as well put the items i git from hunting to good use. i like to explore alot n i help ppl as i run into them either by directing them where to go, helping them farm or giveing them advice. I have yet to git a global but came close yesterday killing outside of twin peaks i picked up a gun and other mics items that came to about 40 ped

Hey everyone. I am a member of the tkoc. I joined Entropia about eight months ago. Unfortunately, I was not an active participant. I would just run around (and run around MMOS). Now, I have become fully involved in the game. Sweating, Trading, Crafting, Hunting, Minning are all high skills (but not too high) on my avatar. Hunting, Minning, and Sweating are my favorite activities. Recently I have been on teleport runs, shown beginners how to participate in the game (from sweating to minning) and been skilling up my avatar mainly. I am glad to participate in this event. I have been on Team hunts and received two globals with my soc. I have had 1 spaceship in my minning, but no beacon. Also, I have had 3 solo globals. All off of argonauts forth of TP mall. Ill be checking in later to tell of what i have been doing. Cya Later

Went Minning and Crafting. Mined some Oil 50 peds of probes made 9 ped profit tt. Crafting basic filters made about 12 ped profit tt. pretty exciting till this next thing happened. :0
Well...checking in, I got scammed hardcore a couple of days ago....I am back down to a noob in my equiptment and stuff. Had a friend who was selling gear for me, I let him use my armor and weapon (shogun 2a plates & breer m2a OA 102) and he never logged on again. Lost about 550 peds. For a couple of weeks, I will be seen at the swamp (sweat) camp North West of Port Atlantis....Feel free to help donate :)

I was in PA and i saw an advertisement for what looked to me like a free event, how could i refuse? so i had a word with Noyce and got my scans done so i guess i am now going to be skilling like mad. Maybe some rifle skill would be good so i can graduate for my mentor who has been particularly helpful to me. But also filling my map with teleporters seems an appealing prospect to me, but then it doesnt gain skills, so maybe i will put that on hold. i am pretty confident i wont win, but ill be skilling anyway, nothing to lose in entering.

At first i went to Nea's but then i decided if i wnated any real skills i need to be hunting without armour, so i scraped together some PEC and cashed in my chips for some ammo, i might get lucky with loot but it's not likely. i also managed to trade sweat for a VIVO FAP, so i wont lose loot from death.

So ive been hunting with my trusty opalo and a BLP (L) pistol i managed to get my mits on. it's a stretch to find enough ammo, so i may have to return to the wet days of sweating like a pig. maybe some Swunting (sweat-hunting) as a compromise. I figure that the average loot gained for me from hunting is about 50% of the PED spent on ammo, maybe i will have to shop around for good deals and i will definitely try to run myself to some tps to break up the hunting/ sweating sessions.

So many things have happened...

I arrived a month... almost five weeks ago. It seemed the logical thing to do. Life on Earth wasn't promising, while Calypso was full of opportunities. It's true that I didn't know much about the place, wasn't sure what to expect and so had no certainties about how I would make a living. But I wasn't afraid, I was open to whatever life could set in front of me.

Well, it was a big explosion. Our ship was attacked by robots. Later I learned this is not uncommon, and fortunately we were duly rescued and healed, but my luggage -meager as were my worldly possessions- was lost, made at one with the atoms of ethereal space.

So there I was, alive and kicking in Port Atlantis, but without a dime, spare clothes, my personal computer or anything else. Oh, well, time to look for a job and living quarters.

I paced the mall district, and climbed the glass buildings. I found lots of offices, with desks, chairs, computers... But nobody seemed to be working there. I went to the mall, and all the shops were automated. I found a crowd at the plaza. It seemed a stock exchange, except they were voicing diverse animal parts. żA farmer's market? Puzzled, I talked to someone wearing what I mistook for a law enforcement uniform where the job office was, and he started to laugh, muttering something about sweating amidst his giggle. I didn't like that, I was not going to earn my bread with my sweat, I was a white collar, educated professional, and I wasn't going to ... uh, work at a furnace or the like. Sweating? Not for me, thank you.

This was a month ago. In the interval, I learned what sweating actually meant, I've come to enjoy life in the open and learned a bit about Calypso's flora, and a lot about its fauna. Oh, yes. Which beasts graze the soil and which chase your flesh. Which look deceivingly cute and furry, and which are rather harmless despite their monstrous looks. And, when in plains and flatlands, to avoid lone red dots. I still remember the first time I saw an Atrox. My legs failed me, my pants went wet and I spent ten days at the hospital, having horribly vivid nightmares despite sedatives.

I met a kind entrepreneur who took me as his disciple. He charged me with visiting all the settlements in Eudoria important enough to have a teleporter. If someone tells you that traveling is an education, believe it. I learned why the hard way. I got wounded so many times that I got to think that, if one could make a living out of being hit, I could have a nice apartment and a car. Well, wanna know something? Such a profession does actually exist in Calypso,and it's called "Evader". You stand in front of some animal, he charges at you and you leap at the very last moment. The public roars, but I've come to think they actually expect the Evader to get hit. I'm sure they're there for the bloodshed. Today I reached Level 1 in the Evader profession, but I'm not going to take part in that sport. Instead, I'll put the prowess I'm developing to good use while in the wild. Boy, I've forgotten about the white collar thing. I want to live in a log cabin, to roam the countryside, and to shoot wildlife documentaries.

I only have to collect enough sweat to purchase a camera...

Hi, I'm still discovering TP's in Eudoria and Amethera. My objectif is having all of them by the end of this event.

MAN! What a big city in the middle of nowhere, and it's empty (Hadesheim). Strange... Iv'e been running N from Orthos and met some nice Atroxes and Argonauts that kindly showed me where was the next revival (nice mobs) :mad: All western Eudoria is done, now have to get some middle-east TP's. Today i ran from Chimera to S to see what was this kind of crater and found... AN ORB!!! In the middle of nothing :o. Never seen one, only in pictures, i approached and everything turned red and darker... but nothing more happened. I really wasn't afraid of beeing looted or something like that since I'm poor :D Next TP will be Camp Echidna where another crater is located.

2 days ago i was standing at PA trying to sell some stuff and watched a newbie saying "looking for pixie parts"... He repeated this several times, and although there were some pixie parts sellers at TP, none of them approached this guy to sell him anything :shock: I think that sellers act like bots typing again and again the same phrase in the Chat windows and waiting someone to approach them. Then I decided to talk to this guy and told him that i had some parts in my storage that i looted some days ago from snables. He came with me, watched the parts and although i was waiting to have a full set in order to sell the armor at higuer price, i sold to him my pixie parts and at a good price (half markup). He was so happy that he equipped immediatly tha parts :rolleyes: I explained him that there is a decay each time you wear it, and to be careful with this point. He thanked me and ran. I was happy too since it remembered me my fisrt weeks on the game when i was looking for armor parts with my few peds earned by selling sweat :)

I've discoverd too that Feffoids o Maffoids (Can`t remember) NE from Argus don't like me, and man, how ugly they are :D

ok, more stories this week ;)

Over the weekend... I did more (guess what) SWEATING!! At one point I went back to Atlas Haven to do sweating and hunting combined. It can be lonely out there, so I will only stay for about a day before returning to PA where there is more activity.

I have found in this game... patience is an important part of this game. You don't always get sweat, don't always get loot, or a buyer that is offering the price you want. I like this game because it resembles life. You work hard to get what you want.

I bought my first Solomate Opalo also. Several people tell me it is a good gun, though it shoots slower then the Jester D-1 I was given. It takes getting use to.

Also I know this is a game, though I have a thing (when Hunting) that if an animal gives me sweat without attacking me-- I will leave it alone and hunt something else. Strange though seems fair to me. Hunting is not my first instinct. Also I found out that mining may not be my thing either because I hear it is solatary. And as I said earlier I don't like being alone for too long.

I have made a deal with another Avatar to sell my sweat at a higher rate. When I get more $ I would like to do his job part time. I need to find a regular buyer to buy it from me at 6 ped/1000. I will keep my eyes open.

That is it for my journeys so far. I hope everyone reading this will have a great day.

I am very proud of myself. I was shaking, though I put out my first ad of buying sweat. I had someone come over, though with a small amount, said they were new, and asked if I offered a good price. Of course instead of buying from him, I gave him a lesson in the best way to get the best price for sweat. Noone else answered my call and I got bored just standing there, so I went sweating.

Also went hunting today around Atlas Haven. Though while hunting I found a bridge and crossed it. I died soon after... but it put the exploring bug in me. I found C____ Canyon, The contaiminated area, and Fort P____. I forgot the names, though they were east of AH.

I am finally back home at PA sweat camp. Ahhh Home Sweet Home.

Tomorrow I will try to buy sweat again. I will tell you how it goes. Hope me luck that I actually get some this time. :) And good luck to you!!!

yesterday i got a fair bit of hunting in. i had been bummed out because i've gotten relatively few drops of non oil/skin type items, but i guess my luck seems to have turned around. as usual i went out hunting near atlas haven and the first snable i killed dropped pixie arms and a bunch of other junk. a while later i got some gnome shins and pixie gloves. as my axe was running out of life i got an emik. guess i shouldn't complain anymore. ;)

the unfortunate thing about my hunt was that i had a bit of a weapon discrepancy. i hit level 4 swords(wo)man the day before, and was thinking that 4 was the appropriate time SIB wise to switch to the cutter two.(it's actually 4.6) i was a little surprised that they, at ~ 122ped, are over twice the cost of a cutter one. meh. i wouldn't care so much if it was a UL item.. but anyway, i bought one at auction. when i went out to hunt with it, i got a message that my skills weren't good enough to use it efficiently. boo. i killed one daikiba and put it away, switching to my 2x0 axe and breer. now i'm kind of stuck.. i have about 5ped left, my axes are broken, and i need to
skill my longblades, but don't want to waste the new sword. i have an old enblade in storage that i may put a little repair on and see if i can make up the difference in skills.

also notable - i LOVE the goblin armor i bought earlier in the week. i was thinking that it was pretty close to pixie, but it seems to do way better for me and doesn't decay as fast as i thought it would. i'm a little ansy to finish my shogun set to see how it does. (still need arms, feet and mask)

another also - i just started playing with mindforce stuff and find it to be pretty cool. i have a minor TP chip and a minor nerve blast. the TP is super useful. I had to use it to get my last TP on eudoria.. would have been really helpful in my run from oxford to akmuul a few weeks back!

anyway, thats all. hopefully i'll at least make it to level 5 swordsman before the contest is over. hehe.

Today I took my test before the Port Atlantis Health Authority Board of Examiners and I'm proud to announce that I passed with marks, and now am a certified Paramedic: Level 1.

I also mastered my Vivo1. It took time. I practised disassembling and reassembling it blindfolded, and putting antiseptic and stitches on my own back, with my off-hand while balancing on one leg and reciting the list of pieces. But finally my Vivo1 says that I mastered it's secrets, and that I can't learn anymore from it... wih a bonus, that is :)

From two different Fouls I looted a FAP5 and a FAP28. Interestingly enough, none of them provides as high a minimum as my Vivo1, so I feel like I'll stay with my old chap. I reckon I should get a Vivo5, they say it's the bee's knees for those who have mastered the V1, but alas they seem nowehere to be found, exceedingly expensive or totally battered (check whatever applies). This means my tour of the Ametheran TP's is going to take a while. Completing Eudora was tough enough, what little I've seen of Amethera convinced me I shouldn't go back there without better armor, a big FAP and a flare gun.


Been selling some sweat and the proceeds of my meagre hunting. Loot does not yet break even with cost of ammo, so I fear I'll get my Master Sweater diploma before I'm allowed in the Hunter's Club Dinner. But such's life... I think my filming documentaries is not happening soon...

Ok, reached Camp Echidna, then went NE to take a look to this big crater. Well, merps thought it was a bad idea and it took me 5 times until I reached it... oh well wasn't a quiet visit since the crater borders were full of snarksnot willing to welcome me, so i started running and took a look inside the crater while a herd of snarksnots were following me all the time... they maybe wanted to guide me around the area:p I finally let them kill me to gain some skills and go back to Echinda

I then went to Chimera Canyons and tried to reach Fort Pandora, wasn't easy since i found my beloved Feffoid (or maffoid.. canĄt never remember:rolleyes:) and some huge, very huge Daikibas. I finally reached the TP and headed south to take a lookk to the desert and kill some sabakumas and Berycled. Suddenly i found a huge city in the middle of the desert suspended in the air and with 4 columns ... I approached and no entrance was visible, but since it was full of atrax and longud, i ran away. Anyone knows what city is this one??? It is purely ornamental? :confused:

Ok only eastern TP's missing, will run them this week-end and will try to reach The Oil Rig :D

oh btw i'm trying to help a friend from my country whose mentor didn't connected anymore and didn't know how to do what you need to do in EU. Since I'm a noob i can't be his mentor be i'm teaching him all the tricks i know and letting him sweat while killing some snables. Sometimes we meet at Nea's Place to sweat too. Funny guy.


See you all.

'Simon the Guide' was the MA avatar to take us on the tour of EU tp's on calypso... and i managed to take some screen shots of the maddness... i highlighted my self in some of the pic's so you could see the number of people involved... we lost about half near the end, but all in all it was fun... the picture of simon show's off the uber wepon he had for working for MA.... waht a great job... if any one know's how i can ge this job let me know =-) i could totaly handle playing EU full time and helping out noobs with the game... sounds great to me =-) in any case i then spent most the day geting out-bid on the auction, and advertiseing for the last few entrie's to the NOTM contest... then i attempted to craft a bit and was met with a loss of resorce and few sucsesses but, all in all it was a great day... i hope to finish off the night with a hunt with a soc member or two, as well as the all encompassing sweating that we all do =-)

Happy HOF's to you all, see you in game :D

Hi all,

Hope everyone is having fun. I am now using storage. Small feat, though something new to me. I have also checked out the blueprint and auction. I had been in the auction once before, though didn't understand it. This time I figured out how to find the many different items that were for sale. The clothes interest me, though I am still too poor to get any.

I tried to go look for another tp on my own, though I ended up where there were sooo many animals. I couldn't walk through it. I ended up getting chased and killed. When I become a stronger hunter, I am going back there for sure.:yeah:


That is all for now. I want more tps, so hope me luck.

02.03.2008 Dairy entry,
Missed entries Friday Support teleported me from Twin peak and I spent happy Saturday doing little sweating and mining, mining went bad L in Treasure Island return was less than 10 % ........ Decided to hunt, what turned at the end for a little profitJ, not speaking of skill gained.

Beautiful Sunday I decided to make some hunt – Took my trusty Opalo and ammo – went for hunt the same little aggressive creatures Tantalions – and bah, almost all „Does dot carry any lot”, they ate me 4 times as I am hunting without armor. So hunt went on and I saw no return on ammo spent, I asked society – Could they suggest some other prey, for me? And they pointed out Merps, east from Hedesheim , I went here but found just few of them, and still my already very well known msg. – “No lot”, most I have encountered was Exozaurs and Snables. Exozaur Old even started to chase me, I decided ok “You want fight, then fight”

Slowly I charged Opalo aimed in run and bah – 1st missed, I return it bitted me for 13 dmg, O_O, next few shots in point blank reached the target. I noticed that it has heeeeell lot of health as health bar become shorter a little. It bitted me again , and again , soon I was left about 15 health. I run , made some distance and shoot back , run again and shoot back – but it was regenerating health faster than I , aaaa, then I stood and shoot lets see who is thougher of us – and whollaaa it fell , and, and, ……….. and again no loot L

Note – Hunt Young as none of higher maturities has anytime gave any loot
Note 2 Tantalions and Merps are great to skill-up

Hi mates. All Eudoria TP's completed, wasn't so hard starting from Argus and heading NE to get the 2 Tp's located there and then S until reaching Nymphtown. Some araneatrox killed me near Minopolis but could manage to avoid them. No interesting places found, only 2 big lakes (one of them with a small island in the middle). I know there is an orb near Minopolis but I didn't lost time looking for it since i already found another one.

And now the best part... i was at THE OIL RIG :D Yehaaa. When reaching Nymphtown i tried to got o the Oil Rig but the way was full of atrox and couldn't manage to reach it. Then i decided to ask my mentor and he told me that the best way was from SW. So i started running from Twin Peaks, headed S until i reached the Beach, and then E until the outpost SW from Oil Rig. On the way i found some tantillion, sabakumas, i think Longus too and some araneatrox, so i decided to swim in order not to be killed. When in the outpost i headed NE to the PVP zone. A new entry appeared on my map showing the entire PVP2. I had to try 3 times since some mobs killed me while trying to reach the oil rig, but i finally found a way zigzaging between them and i finally reached it.... an Uber came to "welcome me" :p but i shouted immediatly "Don't shoot please, I'm a noob, no weapons" :rolleyes: and it worked :D, he let me approach and i finally met the OIL RIG. Oh well i thought it would be bigger but it's very very small and i'd say...ugly. It wasn't spitting out barrels at this time but some other ubers started appearing. I was taking a look on the "machine" when an Uber told me not to approach (he was warning me :D), then i stayed away.

You know the situation in the oil rig is similar to those Far West Films where some guys are keeping an eye on each other on the Saloon until the fight begins. And it's the same there!!! Everything is calm, the ubers chat and joke, but keeping an eye on each other, meanwhile the barrel spitting out time approaches... and suddenly... someone fires ...BOOM... and the fight starts :Sniper:It's quite funny, but since you are there too, they don't wait too much until they kill you, in fact i was nerve blasted by someone called Simon. Well, back at the oupost, i didn't came back and started running W to reach Twin Peaks again. It was an interesting experience. ;)

Meanwhile i've been teaching my friend, who i am helping, about how to make ME to sell instead of selling sweat wich has become very hard. Whenever he has enough sweat and peds i'll explain him how to get Nexus, refine it together with sweat to obtain ME and sell it at auction or in the streets.

Oh i forgot to tell that i was in strange place W of Hadesheim that looks like a circle in the map. When i reached it, it looked like a small crater full of fog and nothing interesting inside :rolleyes: I even dropped a probes but didn't find anything.

Ok, more sotries this week, next target: start aquiring all Amethera TP's (already have some of them).

I am trying to be adventurous. I had the urge to explore again, I think I am starting to like it.
I decided to start at Tethys Creek and head west. I Found Hadesheim outpost. Then still heading west I was killed. I woke up at Hadesheim (town), which is huge!!!
There was noone there, so I couldn't ask where the tp was. I wondered around at least 10 mins (felt like forever) before finding the tp. For everones info the tp is in the center of the three main town parts. That little adventure took me a while. So I decided to just go back to hunting and sweating.
When I got back to Atlas Haven the hunting and sweating was going slow. And I got another bug to explore. So I headed north. I was killed along the way and woke up at an outpost. I had tried going three directions and kept getting killed. My mentor warned me that this could happen. Luckily right then my mentor logged on and came to save me. He led me to Echidna.

Now it is back to sweating because I have hardly any ammo. I be poor. lol

Hope me luck on my next adventure.

Oh yes === I am not good computer wise and somehow I got my shirt on my screen. About 7 little pictures of it that I can't get off. I hope my mentor will be able to help me with this problem. He is going to laugh at me, I just know it. :)

i am in a rut i think. getting tired of hunting the same old things. i will say that i've been getting some more interesting loots. nothing super great, but i find that getting interesting items makes boring hunting a little more fun. downside is that now i have a ton of noob armor bits and no one seems to be buying! even at TT! i hate to make it TT food. no one seems to buy the texture extractors either, and i only have small quantities so it's not really worth auctioning.

for anyone that read my last entry here, i had a bit of a weapons problem. i dumped all the ped i had left into my old combat enblade A and hoped it would be enough to get me to lvl 4.6 so i could use my cutter two, but it was not to be. frustrated, i had to deposit again. i repaired the enblade another time and fixed both my 2x0 axes too. still not to 4.6. grr. i did start killing mollisk youngs. got some good loot off of them. i can kill the adults too, but they come pretty close to killing me.

i also took a break from hunting a few days ago and did some component manufacturing. i've been making basic filters because everyone says thats the best way to skill.. but how dull. making crappy tt food sword was more fun, but dulurium or whatever it's called is really expensive. i'm thinking about ditching manufacturing as a mean of skilling and going with coloring which appears to be the most efficient way to skill intelligence.

thats all for now. hopefully i'll get a bit of hunting in this evening.

Monday, bloody Monday nothin much interesting, as now low on budget and sweating to get some PED,
Althought got an interesting offer, High ranking wanted to check some new armor combination, and asked smb with Vivo to backup. I applied - I had until then got to fapping, so new for me , but it was fine. Mobs hunted were not that hard for High skill hunter and I frequently healed - I was even provided with Vivo. I made over 50 skill point in this way. Used about 4 Ped from Vivo and gave it back
Cool, thing I started with minimum no skills Heal 5.3 ended with 6.3 and from 13 times in minute to 14.

Hunt was for about 2 h, some more or less decent loot to, but when result of hunt was calculated there vere some minuses :( but less than expected :) - some cost saving so experiment was some success

Little time and some fun , Reached my limit for today in sweating 500 bottles this time fairly easy, and Yea Got profession level 3 in Sweat gatherer lol and decided to have some travel, had done some TP runs and decided go further , I done also some TP in solo :) like to sneak around.
Highest point so far in Eudoria was Hadesheim decided to travel North - in Map so that there is Fort Ithaca so that the target, Set out for road and O_O a Merp chased me, As in travels I go without weapons, as there are territories where player can be robed, had to take it to turret, I thought, Hhmmm if there are Merps then this will be hard. But soon Armaxes started to show - I was afraid - regular global are reported from them - so strong and as it turned out not so angry :).

Close to Water some did get angry on me, but I run in water and thought, cool made this on 1st attempt, Armaxes died. The I notice Hey something is approaching what can that be? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA local piranhas as it turned out 1 started to eat me and soon there were bunch of them, they quickly made short work of me. Next thing I see I am in some Outpost

Setting out for next attempt Sneak around Armaxes and jumped in water, cool so far we are the I noticed my friend piranjas in radar waiting for me I turned back to coast and started to swim and looking for some path between them. Soon I found good 1 it looked clear from piranjas I started to move north. It did not take long to show up 1st piranha , and it come close , then next one, another , and another 1st bitted me ouch it was a pain, and bitted again I continued North to coast, soon several was biting me and I run out of health just like 1 meter from Coast , what a pity, and back to Outpost

3rd and 4th attempt ended quite similar just not made so close to coast

I decided to move mush more around the island keeping distance between Armaxes and Piranjas, so I did, then I notices dome miner I approaching and asked is the easy way o Ithaca known? The answer was interesting that Ithaca lies right North and that’s the easy way - lol I thought He is making fun of me , then He said ok he also need to go to Ithaca I can follow. Near the coast was 3 Armaxes, what attacked him. My 1st thought was that’s it, dead Hero but wait, Miner pulled out gun and made short work of 1 Armax, then used some Fap and then took out next 1 and the last 1.

Yea I would like skills like him and HP + armor :), Next action was to jump in water the bad piranjas were awaiting, but they were pray this time.

So I stepped out in Island, soon behind the hill I saw red dots - opaa who this time Atrax or Atrox? As it turned out it was already well known Combiba

I moved behind the mined and soon the fort was visible, near the fort was some nice bird

Great New TP in list

Did sweating , later decided for some hunt, bought 450 ammunition for Opallo and TP to Fort Ithaca – to these nice bird hunt – did some sweating and the finishing creature – interesting note Sweated creatures are not willing to drop anything

1 success I was able to sweat dry Exorozaur Young, lol, it even did not move J , then killed and as usual 0 drop , it took 3 successes to dry it out, got 48 sweat bottles

Soon run out of amo and calculated results, return oooooh return - not taking into account the Opallo - 4.50 PED for amo and whole the lot of 0.48 PED TT possible markup items none + can count ~ 100 Sweat = 0.55 PED = return about 20 %

Open question where and what to hunt with such rate of return it is simply not interesting

About 3-4 days ago I got to take a friend on a tp run. This is the first tp run I had taken anyone on. This person had been on longer then I so I was excited that I could help him. I took him to Tethys Creek then over to Hadesheim C. From there we explored a dark circle to the West of town. There we got killed and ended up in a place we couldn't escape... again...
Luckily my great mentor Tree It Zepher (spelling), came to the rescue again. On our way to safety we sweated and hunted. :)

Then yesterday I went to the other continent for the first time. :) I heard the sweating at Nea's was good. So I got cords from my friend and off on another adventure I went. I made it and did some sweating. 10-15 people on one animal was amazing to see and be a part of. Two hits of a tail and I would die. lol

I wonder what the next few days have in store for me?

This contest is pushing me to do things that I wouldn't have tried for quite a while. Usually I do things slow. I am glad I joined. :)

more hunting yesterday. i'm still just repairing the enblade and axes.
loot was pretty awful. as in not dropping at all most of the time. i gave up on my usual spot near atlas for a while and roamed around camp phoenix. bery's were being ok to me. i seem to get a lot of good skilling when i hunt them. i also went back to the mollisks for a while. they weren't dropping anything that day.

out of the few loots i did get, it seemed that there was a lot of armor. i'm starting to just build up sets to sell rather than worrying about finding buyers for pieces. the only problem is that i don't seem to ever get the feet.

next time i'm on i intend to try a little more hunting and then maybe go back to sweating in hopes of skilling some more.
another thing that has piqued my interest is boxing.......

Started as ususal with sweating ,then server went down DC, relog and Society chat is broken, feeling very lonely without usual society small chat
Went to Swamp camp do some sweating , server broke again - AAAaaaaaAAA,
decided ok lets try som hunting , took Blade set out for hunt

And it turned little weird to me 1 hit and Dailika running awai and I chasing it swing - miss, swing - miss , and again how I am supposed to kill them?:(

It turned out that when creature run should not attack it but run befor it and then make final blow

Quite soon got warning tha soon Enblade will broke ---- Opaaa! Just repaired it ~ 1/2 to 10 PED, how that can be ? See killed some beast that run to me and checked the condition - value left below 1 PED, that was fast money spending aproach - creatures dropped ~ 3 PED.

As soc chat down was not able to ask society. Asked around and it turned out the Quality is important thing as it goes to gather with value decrease, should search better quality melee weapon

To test killed 1 Daikiba Young with 2 hits - value decrease 10 Pec, outch, not a cheap weapon to use , had expected differently results - as melee I am taking damage too

Taken into account I bought long time ago from Auction and paid ~ 3 Ped markup I am in real low with this.

Dc 1 more time and society chat started to work , good to be back in information flow

Woman day, and Land grab, I decided to take part :) as with previous and Gathereed all my 3 parts of Pixies armor , pulished them up to as shiny as the sun and started to consider that some more armor needed , lol

Last Land grab was fun - I moved close and Baaaaaah 1 hit with dmg 91 with my 89 hp . me dead , lol this was Marble ????? some time i will also have this , made some more approaches to LA marker , 1 time even got into zone when Teleport countdown was 5 min

But all preparations was just to get armor shiny as the LG was postponed to unknown future, so moved do some sweating as usual

Later decided to get some understanding to Auction house , it might be used to earn some PED, just did not get idea very clear , how the final commisions are calculated

Cool thing,I checked market prices and they are high for tools , if consider the ore prices then it might be some business to make them, Blueprints are cheap , need just get ores and enmaters

Decided to try out Enmater mining , ppl in society said that enmaters are easier the ores , bought tools and some bombs , oooops, good that they can be sold back and got my 20 probes

TP to remote area, and set out . Soon reached promising area, made necesary configurations and bum 1st rpobe went in the surface of Colypso - Hahaha "No resources found" where did I have seen this kind of message? :)

Moved to another spot , bum and massage again ok but I am getting skills.... expensive ones - 1 skill 50 Pec

Move to another spot, bum, AND the Ring bell You have claimed resorce Tiny II hm tiny clear , what does mean II ? ok click 2 times with mouse to marker - the Mater finder Said "No resource found" What a ? Ok! clicked another 2 times , again the same msg , and then I noticed that I have droped 2 probes :( aaaaaa, I thought that double clicking is enough to start use correct tool on marker

Switch the tool and started to mine 3 attempts got 74 FOrce Nexus. Cool they have good price

Dropped some 5 more bombs - till I got next deposit again Tiny II this time Melchi Water, but I wanted to get Force nexus , where did they went?, I turned back.

Moved back and now I am in confusion , did I drop a probe there or not? Who know?

Ok! Lets try luck out in another place, Teleported to another place - got 10 more probes droped some and got some Typonolic , cool these have even better markup

Then some Nexus again very son out of probes

So back to Trade treminal - TT value is 6 PED with markup almost 10 - what is the cost of probes, not bad at all, tommorow will get some more probes and try to get more

hunt hunt hunt - i am bored with hunting, but nothing else is really appealing to me that wouldn't take some hefty deposits. i've been trying to mix it up with the mobs i hunt; camp phoenix is fun with berys all the way out to the mollisks and conrundos out past the space ship. i also went south of atlas for some higher snables. i found that the dominants seem to drop the best, guardians are ok. i only found one alpha and it gave no loot. they really didn't have dense enough spawns in that area for my liking.
i like cornucaudas, but i can't find a good place to hunt them. i tried east of ithica, but there were drones that chased me all the way back to the city and then kept ganking me at the revival terminal. ugh!

at least during this time i finally reached the right skill level to use my cutter two. it's pretty awesome. i can kill most of my usual mobs with one swipe now. it does decay really fast though. if it didn't have SIB, i would probably just stick with the 2x0 axe... i'm actually thinking about getting some 1x0 axes for skilling, but i'm not sure if they'd be any better dmg/pec than the enblade.
anyway, i'm now lvl 5 in longblades dmg and should be lvl 5 longblades hit pretty soon.

something else interesting i caught was an animal stampede on port atlantis. some person apparently did it. lots of killing. it was kind of fun.

also, i tried sweating again. sucked. i remember why i stopped in the first place. got no skills off of it, and in a half an hour of trying only got 40 some sweat.

weird day yesterday. more hunting. boring, bad loots. getting bummed out about the decay rate on the cutter two, even though it does some crazy damage.

still wanting to try boxing, but i can't seem to get together with ppl to. i was supposed to meet a guy to box with at billy's, but there was a soc event going on.. went to caravan and there were some higher level avatars in the ring forever.
so instead, i went hunting with the power fist! it was kind of fun beating the crap out of snabbles. berys were especially fun. lots of skills.. the light melee skills don't help me much, but it did get other melee and combat stuff which is good. with the berys i got a lot of evade and athletics too. plus, the fist is so fast, it seems like the mobs can't hit me as much because i'm constantly hitting them. loot was still sucky.

tried hunting outside my usual areas some more. loot continued to blow. i don't know if it's this sword or what. eventually i just started screwing around... and discovered... I CAN KILL ATRAX NOW!! woohoo! i barely survived, but i killed three of them.. and was disappointed with the crappy loot, but whatever.

after the cutter two ran out, i was feeling pretty pissy about how pricey it was vs how short it lasted. i really don't like L weapons. i'm kind of torn on paying more for SIB stuff, or just using cheap, lesser, maxed out UL stuff.... i may have made a mistake in this regard... remains to be seen.. i stocked up on enblade a's and 1x0 and 2x0 axes, and then bought a katsuchi(sp?) honor for a panic weapon.. we'll see how it turns out.

looking for a soc too, because i'm getting tired of roaming in silence.

Today mobs did not want to give sweat ~ 150 sweat /h not so great, but done with my plans

continued to Mine , in soc people suggested to move in wilderness with hope of better chance of finding some deposit , so I set out and as for a noob that Treasure Island would be good spot

went East - O_O who do we got there ? Red dot spotted further than radar range, o Hooglo , ppl get globals with them time to time , ok this is for Large boys, I try to will make around them. Went on keeping distance over the Closest radar range - O_O, 1 moved and very fast very close and hit me just for 93,2 dmg , looooool

Back to revive, cool noob area, ok set another direction

Droped some probes - getting skills but no deposits

Cool I found some drones :) fast teleport back to revive,

Ok! try anothe direction and dropped probes in row - 5th hit the III Nexus deposit , great, 140 Nexus extracted , where are more around? , market place and droped probes around - :"No resource found "....

Moved and got some Oil , then again

Also got Alicencies deposit II

So back to base - results - Probes used 37 TT 18,5 PED return TT 4,72

Note. Got to evaluate approach and lookup for some mining map to become more efficient

Hi, there!

Haven't been up to much, lately. The usual slicing & dicing, or more properly, sweating & hunting. Alas, nothing worthy of mention has been achieved, and hence my lack of reports.

Given my level of skills, some time ago I realized what made most sense for me was to take on snablesnot-male youngs. Why? They're not too strong, not too aggressive, don't do too much damage and have just one sweat pull. This means once you've got your first success box you don't have to care about trying again, you can just shoot. At my current skill I can down a snab-male young in 4-5 shots with my Opalo. If everything turns out right, I can succeed in sweating it without getting it aggroed, and then proceed to shoot. If the first two shots are good enough, it will turn around before reaching spitting range, so I'd be unhurt.

Of course, in the worst case it will get angry at first sweating attempt (or even before) and start attacking me. But I'm tough enough to resist a few attacks while trying to sweat, and knowing that I can resort to my Opalo at any time makes this tactic safer than it'd seem. Admittedly, a few times I've overdone it and risked too much, and my recently achieved mastery of Vivo1 has came in handy... On a second thought, maybe that's how the mastery was achieved...

So with my current skills allowing me to sweat&hunt for several snabs in a row, I've progressively moved to areas where their population is larger. I began at Camp Phoenix because they were scattered and you could concentrate on one without risk of being attacked by another while doing sweat&run. As my skills increased I moved to Atlas North. Now that I don't have to sweat&run anymore I'm hunting around Atlas Haven.

Of course, I'm still dependent on luck to make this last. 1000 bottles of sweat buy 500 shots, which means 100 snabs if I'm lucky, althoug usually it's less, and 85 snabs seldom provide good enough loot to pay for another 500 shots. So I really need the sweat. At times I find myself our of ammo and money, and have to go back to sweat&run. Fortunately, this happens less and less, and I believe I'm approaching a point at which hunting will become self-sustainable.

Of course self-sustainable strictly means no benefit, so I foresee lots of sweat in my near future...:D

Hi mates, i've been missing for a week, but im here again to tell you my stories in Eu , and there are great news.

First of all i'll tell you about my tpruns. I went to catch Emerald, shinook and New Switzerland. Wasn't easy since some lands are full of huges bad mobs. I realised that i better avoid those lands even if the path is longer. And it took very long to get to Emerald. No special places on the way. From Emerald i tried to reach Shinook but found some well known daikibas, i thought i could killl some of them but i realised that they were Old Alpha... OMG :surprise: I thought it would be better to stay away. From Shinook i reached New Switzerland wich is a beautiful place, although useless since there is nobody there. Oh and i got a free new TP since there was an event at Nea's and i was redirected to Oyster Isle. No need to run there, lol.

About my friend, who i was helping, he has been disconnected for a week, then nothing new happened with him. Anyway he has to sweat in order to make ME, then he has pending schoolworks.

And now the great news... FIRST GLOBAL EVER wooohoooooooo :D:D I got 108 peds.. hey this is a good one ;) After 3 months of playing i have been rewarded. I was very happy. I hope to have more.

Finally an amazing story. While beeing at Argus i noticed that some mob were entering the auction, well not so strange, happens sometimes.... but this time there wer some exarosaur and cornundacauda inside.... too strange this time. I went outside and GOD it was fuuuuuuuull of mobs everywhere, what a madness!!!!:surprise::surprise:More than 50 mobs attacking everybody. The radar was full of red dots.. WOW. Ubers started to kill them and i was killed several times since i couldn't walk more than 5 meters before beeing eaten. Well, the good part is that i gained lots of skills :D I have screenshots but i'm at work now. I'll post them this afternoon.

Regards mates.

Hi All,

I have been mostly sweating and doing some hunting. Though While hunting this past week many of the mobs had no loot. So I became pretty poor. I was sitting on 2K of sweat hoping to find the good prices when I first started this game (about 2 months ago?). I saw many people buying at 6 ped per 1,000. Now if I see a 5.3 I am very excited. Since I got so poor I had to sell 1K at only 5 ped. :(
Which means I need to sweat more. That is the tough time I have been having.

Now for the good times. My mentor took me on a tp run to Twin Peaks, hitting two others on the way. 3 days later I finally got some mining equipment. (big investment for not having much money). I learned how to use it. I only started with 4 probes Two I wasted trying to figure out how to use. lol On the last one I got a claim. It had 60 crude oil in it. I think mining is fun, though need more $ for probes. lol

I then got the urge to explore again. I got to a place (some unnamed outpost) where I was having a little trouble getting out of, though didn't try all the directions yet, when my mentor found out and decided to save me yet again. :? In this area I got killed by an android and a robotic warrior. They freak me out. The androids run so fast at you. EEEKKK!!

After this big ordeal then I went back to my old trusted sweating camp and actually found a 5.3 buyer. So I sold 1K to him. Now I am not super poor. Though I know I need to do more SWEATING. I hope my hunting picks up too.

Well until next time. Take care.

Got some Force Nexus, Oil and some sweatstuff too, got 16 probe empty row :( was not very happy was making back as got 1 VII Force Nexus deposit

Today was scheduled Society event - Ratae was organising. Great event hunted Large mobs , but drop was poor, learned some thing that in Teamhunt need to move and not block the aim path

Target mobs were Large Exozaurs and then Arganauts, even took out some drones - even generation 08 - Thee were killing me with 1 hit .......

Read in forum that ore mining is profitable . lol not for me :) at least 4 now

Started with simple idea Meka some tools - searched the Auction and Saw OF101 bueprints, lol they can be bought from Enginier

So what to do with materials? - got som Melchi , but no ingot , need Lysterium and Cumbriz - bought from Auction House 129 % Lysterium and Cumbriz even more

Ok Insert into the tool machine , added resources and push the button Krrrrrrssssszzzzzzzpshpsh - Near Success- got some resources back - of course not expensive 1-es
Added materials KRRRRRRRRrrrrSSSZZZPSHPSH - Near Success, and some resources back
3 rd attempt - KrKrKRKRKRKR -Success - Manufactured OF101 with TT 1,87 ,lol if coun materials the it would be cheaper just to buy 1 and pay markup.... (material TT cost was ~4+ PED)

Ok! lets try it out - bombs - o Bombs 1 PED each fine I take a bunch of them more precise 65, also excavator and refiner(just incase, lol )

Got ready the controls and ready bomb, set and run, buh - o New window , cool , and same old message

ok move and ready next 1 bah - this time oooo luck Tiny Lysterium, cool that can get so easy

moving on
BAh
BAh
Baha
Bahaaaaaa

Bahahahaha

Hahahaha
so goes 27 Bombs 0 finds aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and thenLysterium again this time IV cool making back some money

Bah BahBAH - 7 more 0 finds

Becomming desperate and run near creatures, they got angry and started to Chase me

and closing, I my I am slow
Switching off the Finder and of course pushed to drop another bomb ,... Opaa Got Deed Lysterium deposit V, great , but in tse same time I got killed

Revive and Chassing back Agnry Creatures are All around ok try to sneak - gol close and died again

Making next plan ok Run to and away to clear the path

Did this strategy 4 times
but creatures are blocking my path and start to respawn

Time left 14 min got 5 + min to run :( ok last attempt

Hey There is a hunter Asked help What I was granted , but buy the time We killed mobs See the picture

So GL next time

Notes - Buy tools as making them is more expensive than paying markup

This is a good example as to why you should mine in areas with mobs you can handle LOL or better yet NO mobs. You have to be able to survive to get the resourses out of the ground. Sorry this one got away. :-(

still more hunting. i've been mixing it up on mobs to see what happens, but tend to gravitate back to the snables/daikibas. i have been roaming areas with higher level snables and kerberos' lately, which has been working out really well for me. the snables aren't dropping interesting items, but they are giving me a lot of loot and the kerberos' are dropping interesting things like isis CB5 (i know it's sucky, but it's fun for me to get not-animal oils/hides/etc)

i've been trying to be more socially active, and find that it's generally a PITA. i've chatted with a few cool people, but usually they are gone before long.. last night it seems like 20 people started PMing me in the same 5 minutes. one wanted to team hunt. this is something i've not done, and i figure i should, so i agreed. she asked me to show her my gun in the trade window.. i was a little leery and kind of put off (i dont' really do guns unless my swords/axes are all empty), but whatever. so i team with her and she immediately runs us into a pile of feffs. we killed one, but then there was a champion that killed both of us. she immediately ran us right back to the same one... two more times. she was telling me to use my honor, which i wouldn't.. its for emergencies only, then she told me to put on better armor. "you don't have kobold?" (while i'm wearing my goblin and also while she has no armor at all) i got the impression that she was just wanting to mooch off of me and though i had more stuff than i do. so i left the team and she tried to re-add me a bazillion times, all the while i'm txting for her to leave me alone. i run off and start hunting on my own, and she follows me around killing the mobs that i start attacking. i continue telling her to go away, and eventually have to go to the TP to get rid of her.

at the same time that this is going on, some other girl is whining to me about how hard of a time she is having and that i need to let her borrow money and she will pay me back. yeah right. i may be new, but i'm not stupid. and dont' get me wrong - i dont' mind giving out a little ammo here and there to people who need it and aren't jerks about it. i deposit because i dont' have any fun trying to sweat, so i understand what it's like when you have a bad hunt and run out. harrassing people is just not cool though.

also at the same time some random guy private chats me and wants me to buy a determination from him. wtf? if i wanted one, i would go stand at PA ot twin and ask for it.

so anyway, i think i am done trying to be social for a while. its much less stressful to just go hunt on my own.

and btw, after ditching the SIB swords for a bit, i must say that the 2x0 axes are pretty awesome for skilling. i'm going to work on buying several more.

Late log on, as lost some extra money on mining/crafting experiments, decided to do sweating as i have still got some Force Nexus and price for ME is better, and then come an interesting offer - to Fap Borr from The NBK a hunter , I applied - was doing this 1 time before, great for getting skills and learning how to hunt

Borr made team "NBK Resnis Faps Borr", lol :) and we set out to hunt some Bristlehogs.
Borr were doing all maturities. Few times I had to ask slow a little down as my skill is not so great and could not manage to heal up

So start Vivo full repaired 9 PED, Skills 14 uses per minute and min heal 6.3.
Finish Vivo ~ 5,67 PED, 16 uses per minute and min heal 6,9
(Borr provided the Vivo and got it back)

Got about 100+ skill points

Hunt - all maturities BristleHogs what were found in TI area of hunt. Best loot was ~ 20+ PED, best items gained 2 Fap-18 (each TT under 10 PED)

Result TT -35 PED, if taken into account Markup about or little below break even :(

Hi Resnis,

Good to see you got so many skills while fapping me, it is nice to see that my good intentions actually work out ;)
(And now you even dragged me over to this forum:D)

Next time we'll hit it big, i promise! 8)



I was surprised as to how new you were to the game, since you are very well informed about many aspects of Entropia. Heck, you even came up with the idea of not overfapping me to improve the eco of the Vivo T1.

BTW: one minor correction: the TT of the vivo when you returned it was 5.15, so you had 3.85 ped fap skilling decay on your account :D (at a reported 0.903 pec decay per click, that makes about 426 clicks)


Edit: OOPS: just read the first post in this thread... It seems i am out of order here... How do i move this thread?

Admin: Hey Borr, no you're not out of order as your post will be taken as proof and added towards his scores - thanks!

Happy to read Posts

Done with sweating , made Mind Essence and tried to sell - Selling took 40 + min but got some money, Cleared inventory and bought probes

TP out of PA and dropped 1st probe - No resource Found (NRF),
Move and Wholaa Tiny II - Oil nice
Moved Drop Probe - "You have claimed Resource" This time III, cool
Moved more - "You have claimed Resource" Tiny II I like this trend

I am happy Probes for 2,5 Ped and return Crude Oil 387 with 4 Findings in ROW moved and NRF
Moved and Wholaaa "You have claimed Resource" This time III
Moved and "You have claimed Resource" II Tiny Great

I'll be rich......

the past few days have been kind of slow. i have been helping a RL friend get started in the game. even with the TP run maps i've had a hard time getting her places. it is especially in times like these where i realize how nice it would be to be focused on ranged weapons, but i'm still happy to be a melee hunter.

since she has been hanging out at the swamp camp, i went down there and sold most of the pixie parts i'd be stockpiled. i offered them at TT since those parts are so hard to sell anyways. i got mobbed! everything went pretty quickly.

i also joined a soc the other day - NBK. so far it seems pretty good, but i haven't been on a lot to actually do much with my soc mates. it was nice to have someone on chat to ask questions.

Doing mining sold the Enmaters I got Yesterday and bought probes for 17,50 :)

Decided to try new place Teleported and run a bit , dropped the probe, O Crude Oil II

Run on and the got DC , ok fine back to game and an Exozaur is eating me and it finished me soon :)

Lets try another direction Found nice place near river droped sme probes - got some Oil more

THen I spotted starnge creature - bipedal and with long nose - Who does know how long agro range it has - Cornundos - cool I can manage between them not attacked

Slowly moved into npt to draw attenton , to some larger spot inbetween them droped probe - Claim Garcen Grease III , but very close to Cornundos provider - i moved closer and closer and then it attacked , I run as fast I could, It left little behing but I understood tht Iwill not outrun it.

Opened mand and sow river near, rut to it and jumped in, the Cornundos jumped too. I swam but it has long legs and an and was over the water :( , and moved faster than i coul swim. Step By step it come closer , and bite again and again,...
To make thing more fun I started fo sweat it , lol and got 10 Sweat bottles , thank You for that!

Revieve and New teleport added, great easier to move around and not so far from Deposit

still got 48 minutes left Remembering the last time Lysterim thing I run back but lackily was able to get aroun all Cornundos
Cool Garcen ir more valuable resource , have to remember this place

And then got row of 16 NRF , moved to another continent mybe better luck,

Some probes went down and just dissapared :) with already known NRF ,... soon spotted and eaten by Atrax Young, interesting how much Agility needed to Out-run these

Revive - New outpost, good but how I can make out of it with Fettoid near?
Statuss 4 probes - TT return 6 PED
Become desperate and run into teritory with Fettoids 2 of them started to chase me, Made attempt to remove the enmater finders , but with trained move pushed DROP the probe , very very funy ,.........

But wait and bum chicki bum Hit the deposit

I did not stop , the Fettoid continued to chase me , but I took a little away from the place I found the deposit, dgot fast teleport to Revive :) bb angry creatures

Check the inventoy and Wholllllllllllaaaaaaaa Deposit Size Ample IX , this is great
Checked the coordinates and set un road, soon learned that deposit is quite close to 1 Fettoids, - it took the bait :) and with second run form revive I was ableto get the deposit

Later checked the prices , Garcen has quite good markup

Summary Probes 17,5 + ~30 pec tools , return 24 PED , great

Tommorow will be selling, have to understand the Auction as the street offers less

ok so the quarter is finally over! woot! anyways now that i can finally play again i can fill ppl in on whats going on. Started the day kinda depressed, the day before i had been hunting all day long and crafting my tailoring...0 globals, and to top that off my gun broke. so here i am at the start of today...no gun...very little ped. I originally thought to myself, just sweat..sure ill be bored out of my mind but atleasy ill save what little ped i had left. But i had this feeling that i should just go for broke.. so thats what i did i bought a gun and started killing argos outside of twin peaks. Well i ended up more depressed as nothing was really looting, sure i got an item here and there but nothing big. I hit evade lvl 3 just as i was down to my last 5oo ammo, still no loot to speak of. Just as i got down to my last 100 ammo BOOM first solo global. i hit the roof when i saw that flash on my screen 106 global and my day saved just at the last possible moment...i have a pic but cant post it because it says its to big, if anyone knows what i can do to be able to post the pic mail me plz sorry this is the first time posting pics online for me

finally got to team hunt. i logged in, bought 3 more 2x0 axes and asked in the soc channel if anyone was game. brutus chimed in, and we met up at atlas south. we killed a good deal of snables, daiks and exos. a couple good loots, i got a pixie harness and another fap-15, brutus got an emik and a fap-5. i thought "hey, team must be the trick to getting good items!". that was about all the not tt food items we got though.

i started off with the m1a because i thought that using blades while he was using blp rifle would be awkward.

the spawn we were in was kind of sparse, so we went to twin. found a good spawn of higher exos and combibos. i enjoyed this area alot. the 1000 ammo that i brought didn't last long, so i had to switch to axe. we got into a pretty good system. he would pull with a couple shots, then i would run at them with my axe. if they lived past the first hit, i'd follow them, axing. this was pretty good because for the tougher mobs like dominant and guardian, they would attack him for a bit, then switch to me, which kept him from dying.
we later moved into mollisk country.. it was a lot tougher though, and we eventually ended up dying. it was about time to log anyway, so we ran back to troy through some armax's, but made it alright.

as for eco and stats - it wasn't a great hunt. i think i wasted a lot of ammo, and using guns is way slower than when i just do blades by myself. on the upside, it was more fun and time went by faster when i had someone with me. i think in the future i'd like to hunt with someone and just split up to clear spawns really quickly.

Hiya, sorry for the delay but i have been away from home for a week. Let's start with some good achievements.

I have all Amethera Tp's :D:D Finally. It wasn't so hard, but we had some problems in a Land. I created a team to make a tp run and grab the last Tp's. We were 4 guys running like mads all over Amethera. There was only 1 left (Wolverine hope) and we were running from Treasure Island city. Everything was going well when suddenly, when approaching a land one of us was eaten by a Falxangius :shock::shock: OMG what a big creature!!. We started to panic and run while beeing followed by this gigantisc beast, then the second felt and the third.... I was the only one Alive!!! then is shouted in the chat "I'M LEGEND" :p, but i finally died like the rest of my team. When reviving we noticed that the first one to die wasn't there. He had very bad luck since aparently he died just before the revival area changed and he was now stuck in the middle of a land full of Falxangius!!! :( We tried to help him but we couldn't since we were too noobs. He finally managed to get out by himself and we took the last TP.

Another good news is that i've finally graduated :D:D:D yeehaaaaaa :deal: I've graduated in Rifle and I'm finally free. Well nothing changed aparently but now i could chip in/out skills and mentor people.

BTW, my friend is back on the game and I'm helping him with everything he needs. He told me that his mentor will never come back again since he switched to a different game. I told him to send a support case to MA asking to change from his mentor to me, since I'm really mentoring him. I know this has been granted in the past, we will see if possible now.

Ok mates, more news this week. Bye.

lets see.. whats new since the last time i posted...

the soc has been going well. a lot of people to talk to and trade with. the trading has especially been helpful with finding armor parts, etc.
i also got promoted in the society to sergeant (i think thats what it was) since my skills are getting better. i had to go track down a few TPs that i didn't have to qualify. i only had 29, but have got them all now.

no really awesome loots.. got another emik yesterday. i've noticed a trend in that it always seems like the non-animal items i get in loot come up in the five 5 kills after i log on, then i typically dont' get anymore. weird.

i finally found feet for my shogun set, although i really don't have call to use it right now. in fact, i backed down to pixie from goblin because i was getting an awful lot of 1.0 damage on my usual mobs, which seems like it means poor economy.
i also bought an amp and scope to make skilling laser a little less boring, but i decided i should leave the amp off for a while so i have to make more shots. i find that skilling laser makes me like blade hunting even more.

anyway, i'm up to lvl 7 in LB and lvl 3 in laser sniper now. i might make lvl 8 before the contest is over, but not sure.

yesterday did a fair bit of hunting. i decided to try argonauts since people seem to be globaling on them a lot lately. i didn't get any globals, but the loot was pretty good for a while. got some knight thighs. very surprised at how easy the argos were to kill. i hang out with snables for long stretches and forget that my skills are up! (i also discovered that i can kill drone gen 1's too!)

there were some weird birds by the argos... hiryuu or something like that. kind of annoying that they were too high too shoot unless i climbed a mountain. it would be cool if MA made them tamable. i would like to have a pet bird. hehe.


also.. i got the message about needing final scans for the contest.. i tried to scan myself but it didn't work.. is there a trick to this?

Hello all,

I have been playing, though not posting what I have done. So now you will get a short version of what has been going on.
I have been exploring. I believe I have about 9 more tp in E to find. Who knows how many outpost. I have found many outpost on my own and a couple tp. Others I got help from my friends. I have 3 good friends, one being my mentor. The last place I got to was Nympytown. I tried about 4 times on my own and the Atrax would get me each time. So my friend took me, hunting along the way. :)

I used a FAP for the first time. And repaired it (some). I didn't know you could do just a partial repair. So I was trying to save up 27 ped to repair it. Ouch. Though now I can use it. :)
I had a blueprint, though I bought my first bp book. Now I am trying to get the material to make my first item. I have paint in my storage, so I will be able to color it once I make it. :)
I also have armour, though that is thanks to my friends. They are so good to me, that I feel guilty. Though I plan to help other new people in the game. As soon as this contest is over. And I will say again. If it wasn't for this contest, I would not have done nearly this much. So thanks for coming up with this and I am glad I heard about it.
I think that is it for now. I need to figure out the tps I still need. Oh yeah, I got to L..... on the island in the NW... All by myself. That was a long run. I should say I almost got there. A robot killed me, though killed me close enough that I woke up there. That tp I was proud of, especially when I noticed there were robots.

That is all for now... And as always--- Good luck to you and have a great day. ;)

HI again, last days to tell stories. Well i've globaled again, this time on a combibo! Never thought i could global on them. I've killed a million combibos before :D No good loot tho, it could have been Vigi parts but were oils. But it's nice to global and earn some peds, although armor decay is expensive in the final balance.

Since my main targets are already acomplished, now i'm focused on hunting. I'm hunting armax cow young and combibos most of the time. I've tried Atrax too, but they are hard. I'm hunting no more snables or daikibas, i think i have to focus on bigger ones. I tried Longus, but man, they hit too hard :( Sometimes i kill caudatergus, they are easier and don't loot bad, in fact i looted a Riker UL2(L) :o

Im also sweating to make ME to sell and to use on my Lesser TP chip (a cheap one that is worth 7 peds :D) but i find Nea's absolutely overcrowded, it has become a madness. But well it's necessary since it's the only guaranteed income. Anyway i tend to sell the most part of the ME since i don't wanna use the TP chip a lot, in fact running is free, so i use it only in emergency cases,like beeing surrounded by huge mobs with no way to get out and not wanting to go back to revival.

Finally i'd like to tell that i've found 2 new mobs that i didn't know. First one are Chompers, N of Segna Forest. These are huuuuuge mobs. I checked the HP on Entropedia and decided it was better to stay away:D:D. Same for the second mob i didn't know before, neconnus. I was looking for caudatergus and entered a Land, then i watched a red dot in the radar and went direclty to it thinking it was a cauda... then i was surprised to find that it was one the most agressive beasts i've ever found... it was a younger one but he ate me in 1 second with fried potatos:rolleyes: I will never approach again one of those.

Ok mates, more stories before the end of the month.

Regards

Checked the info and discoveret That i need get last 2 TP on Amathera what I have missed somehow in my travels

Set out for Palms Corner right in the middle of Amathera, my path started from Nate Valey but soon I discovered Atroxes in old maturies and they discovered me too, short sprint and they all times won :) ok! Got TP around the place moved to Wolverine Hope

Hey What are these nice gays with sticks, leaned closer and discovered Thoroifoids and that they do ~ 100 dmg per attack killing me instantly...... Landed in middle of LA. These creatures all around - made just some like 50? + attempts , lol to escape all ended back to revive in centre, was unable to clear path with run and die tactics, as these got ranged attack.
Then I noticed a pair of Hunters , what has cleared path to freeeeedom moved to Wolverine hope and jumped to Neas place - to already known nice Sweet Sweat "amby" Ambulinaxes
Moved out - 2 attempts and I am out of Neas Place LA , discovered next and with with with Thoroiiiiiiiiiiiiiii bad boys attacking from well further as radar close range, tried 3 more times this path, all ended back to Neas

then I moved straight to North and makin around Ambu made to LA what has mixed set of mobs, notices high maturities Longu to , but they are not aggressive

and so without big trouble got to Palms Corner this time

Last TP was Emeralds Lakes - I took path from Shinook Jungle almost no mobs in path and only in very end met Atrox mature, what fhelped with some small Fast travel for TP

Last TP Emerald Lake Mail was I think shortest so far :) and it was the last

Now I got all TP both on Eudoria and Amathera

i think i've been playing too much lately. been taking it easy the last couple of days and trying to catch up on RL stuff.

it also doesn't help that i'm broke.. both in game and out! been selling stuff in game, but it seems like it's not a good time for people to buy in general. i've been sitting on some hair gel for about 3 weeks that i can't find a buyer for... seems like i used to be able to sell gel in minutes.

i can probably still make it to lvl 8 before the contest ends, but i'm not pushing it.

yay! finally made lvl 8 swordsman, earning the first non-derogatory profession title yet - "initiated".

getting bored with hacking away at argos though. need to find something new. i have collected 24ped worth of iron from them though. i also noticed a bug in the game, such that if i right click on items(except ammo) in my loot window and choose "info" it shows the total amount/value that i am carrying, not the amount/value thats in the loot window.

going to try and get my screens in tonight.

Dairy entry 31.03.08. Monday

Finished mining - better would not :) on 43 probes return 7 PED :(, lets do other things

BId in Auction for BP Basic filters gr 31,5 - and won for 5 PED - no cheap, From society mate bought 91 Lysterim Ingot and searched storage for Oil - got 89 Oil :) ok! lets rock.-

- but cannot put the BP in machine , - asked society and they told that a book also is needed - bought right 1=one and start

results TT return 40 % , not so great - and interesting thing BP grade rised to 32 = + 0,6 points. Run out of Oil.

Searched market to sell enmaters and discovered that prices continue to drop :( Alicencies has droped ~ 10% in this month ) ok! not selling. Waiting while market recover from LA grab

I have also bid on another BP and won, lol not expected to get basic filters gr. 65,5

Need to test, what would be results with this much better BP

Last 2 PED on card and bought 4 probes, TP far, far, far away , slowly walked and thought ,:"where to drop probe"

Hops found 15 carrots - cool have some Sweatstuff in storage

Ok! nice place, planted a probe , nice skill xp, got some hopes and then NRF .....

Moved and, cool, Crude Oil II 66 barrels

Ok! little to lose - moved more and dropped 3rd probe it hit Oil Deposit III
cool making money,

What to do with last probe - nice place around some angry mobs nearby :), lest go for all! Planted probe and it hit Growth molecules III claim :)1,88PED, lol total TT return 4,13 PED, on 2 PED probes
I have made on this run over 200 % looooool

Made 70 Oil

Approache the Component making Machine and inserted the BP - little increase of COS in comparison to gr. 32

Add all 70 resources and started to push button -

This seemed to really give better results , and then I got 217 Residues and 27 Basic filters - (~ 50 times a TT walue of materials would be global :) if making itmemore than 1 PED :) )

Result TT return 4,27 PED (Cost of materials was 3,5 PED + ) BUT I made money
BP grade increase to 65,9 => +0,4

Weird things - Skillups - I got 0 skill up even on Manufacture machanical components - 2 times for this skill xp , 4 times engeniering and some mechanics, but no skill points.

I was buying Basic filterrs for they according to information are supposed to be great for crafting skilling, but how efficient are they?

Hello all, new gloabl yesterday, a little one tho. I'm still hunting and sweating sometimes. 2 days ago, i was looking for gravidores and watched in Entropedia that there is a land (LA19) with a lot of them. It took me tool long to reach this land only to see that there were too huge mobs there, stalker and prowler. My god, i couldn't handle such creatures and decided to go back to TP. :(

Yesterday i discovered that molisk gatherer are tougher guys than i expected. In fact one of them killed me quickly. I had to come back from revival to finish it. I think i will wait to a more powerful gun before hunting those guys.

What i'm finding now is that weapons are becoming more and more expensive, and markups are becoming expensive. I'm really worried about that since i son't know if this will increase my expenses. I wouldn't like to have to deposit.

Anyway this is my last story, i hope you enjoyed my posts and also hope to be in the Final. ;)

Thanks everybody for this event wich respresents a good oportunity for noobs to win some prizes.

See you mates.

Well All,

March is over and it has been very enjoyable for me. The last few days I made a push on for tps on Eudoria, though still don't think I got them all. On Eudoria I have 33 and on Amethera I only have 7.

So here is my rundown of the last few days. 3/27 I got Cape Corinth and Argus, 3/29 I got Fort Zues and North Space Base, 3/30 Camp Caravan, finally on 3/31 I got Minopolis. They weren't super hard runs, not saying I didn't die, though it was long.
At one time I got killed by an animal that killed me with one hit: a 112 damage hit.

I am glad to say that I am ending the month with 6 ped and 1K sweat on me. So I am not dirt poor. :)

I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. See you on the fields. ;)
