Found this deep under some force nexus on my desk. Anyone found something to add after 4 dusty years?

Hi. I have a different approach to efficiency which could explain why they do not write decay. It might also shed some light why the claim is higher using an amp. Here goes. Amp-7 has an Eff of 15. Auktuma says 15/5 = 3 ped decay on single drop. Actual decay on tripple drop is 6 ped. What if...

I've been crafting metal components for some weeks now and metallurgy is one of the skill gains. To me it seems that the number of salvaged material is getting higher as Metallurgy skill is getting higher and higher.

Hey all. Does anyone know where one can find information regarding the different skill ranks and the values for these? Example: Newbie Start:1 End: 9 Inept Start 10: End: 19 Poor Start 20: End: 39 and so on /Sea

It is? Well in my world it is just the distance to the border of the next bombradius. Skillgain + 22 meter radius + 44 meter diameter. On CND it is hard to call anything a vein. No and the reason why is that I am pleased with the skill gains the way they are and I can afford to miss 10 bombs...

Hi. I have now compiled the statistics from my runs on CND. This is what I've done. From each run in a specfic dome I have recorded all hits, surveying/prospecting/geo/CGA/Intelligence and Perception skill gains. These recorded skill gains have then been compared with each hit location from...

With inspiration of the thread https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/general-discussion/88465-things-you-believed-n00b.html I just have to ask what things you regret you sold or are happy you sold. I'll start. Regret Vain arms M - sold for 3500 ped. Armor plating 6A BP - 1500 ped one of...

I remember that a freight ship exploded over Eudoria dropping alot of items on the ground back in 2003. I found 25 ped of ammo and I ran like a fool around trying to sell the ammo for 50 ped since I sincerly thought the ammo was more effective then the tt one. What else could it be? I was...

Had a trip around the domes today. 434 meters membership;) Click to enlarge

I see more and more of a "skill gain layer". That is a matrix loaded to the client based on your location. This matrix is plotted with Geology, Prospecting, Surveying, CGA, Intelligence. Every avatar in the same area loads the same matrix. When any avatar finds a skill gain that position is then...

Never ever been over 100 nrf. For me I can accept 50-75 bombs. 100+ is to me unheard of. Unamped values.

133 bombs nrf placed over 5 different domes.

This has been bugging me for some days. What I said was that a beginner will not pull more stones then a veteran. I was KO on this. BUT as we were talking about skills, unless maxed out extractor for both, I still have a higher eff. then a beginner so I pull more stones -> emptying the claim...

I wonder if you mine at CND? Dropping 50 bombs in a row with no hit is not uncommon. Any indication where to drop a bomb is welcome up there. Maybe my english is not that good but I guess a bunch of ppl understand that I mean that 80% of the Geo skill gains results in a claim next to it.

Well once again I can only tell what I see. When I find a claim (without any skill gain) it is common that I get a Geo skill gain somewhere around this claim (40-50 m on CND). So when reading that skill gains are placed like deposits it sort of supports what I can see. Still one mans voice is...

No I havent. I can try since Geo and CGA skill gains is rather common at CND. I've talked to some ppl and my figures "8 of 10 is hits" might be a bit to high. Some say 4 of 10 and some 6 of 10. The interesting thing is that Amping can be used in a more cost effective way if this Geo skill gain...

Oh. Well if that is so I am the first to accept this. Getting old. /Seamaster

Mining Scientists - never stopped being one. Currently recording day,hh,mm and location for all domes on cnd. Already see stuff like ores only at certain times, if I hit a second claim it will be within next 2 minutes else more then 5-10 minutes later, sizes go hand in hand i.e. you will mostly...

Hey. As I've mention in another thread I move around alot on CND again. I wonder if anyone else has gathered claim-stats like this: Dome#, X, Y, Day, Time HH:MM, Oretype, Size I am starting to see some stuff. Running unamped. 1. Some ore only show up in a dome between certain times then...

This makes me curious. Do you say I am wrong for both Mining/Drill and Extraction or just Mining/Drilling?

Skills matter! If beginner and myself would pull 100 "Poor" Claims I will go away with more stones. 100% sure. Skills like Mining and Drilling makes this happen. Extraction raises number of stones from each pull. A test like this is also easy to do. I will pull more stones in average from each...

What can I say. When Rattexx speak time stops.... ;) Anyway lag or not I can deliver more screenshots. So it is up to each person to interpret the Geo skill gain. If any except me can confirm this I guess we have a more interesting disussion. Peace R4tt3xx - just a few of us left :)

Aha - well I try to find a good start coordinate like even tens X=68020, next X=68060 and so on. Since the coords are different now on CND I just start at a specific "even" x,y coord and run. So in other words - not really. The appendix was more a way to mark a spot and be sure to know if you...

Not sure what you mean with "standing in the center of the circle." Pic 2. Pic 2: Got Geo @ 68405,68499. Moved range*2 (40+) to 68363,68509 missed. Ran over to the other side 40+ from 68405 and hit @ 68440,68507. In my way Geo helps me find a claim.
