Interesting results. May i ask what was your highest loot (in tt) during the project?

The highest single loot I got during the project was 134ped of eye oil, without which I would have broken even on the project counting markup.

I did get several loots in the ~15ped range every couple of days which I think can be expected if camping consistently.(would be similar to a small global on drones if camping them consistently) Never enough to really put you in the Black but enough to even out the no-looters a little bit.

Thanks for adding your data to the mix Dra.

Your results are more what I was expecting as far as loots go. It seems you did a lot better than me on defensive decay though :p

Itchi's attempt...

Hi everyone, I decided to add more data to this project :D Took me a while deciding if I should buy an Unlimited S30 or not. After talking to the soc, I decided to buy it :p Was hoping I could get it for tt+25, but some jerk had to start a bid war when there was 5 min. left!! So I bought it for tt+30. Hopefully this is a wise investment I made. Currently my s30 is at full tt. I’m not sure how much I can afford to decay it down to, but I will try my best.

Since I am pretty busy IRL (grad school student), I can only play on weekends/holiday breaks. If there is a big research assignment then I might have to skip some weekends. So this will be a very long project for me lol.

p.s. I am also on the merp 1000 challenge, so I will log the merp kill counts too.
 
My equipment starting Values:

Vivo T1 = Fully 9.00ped
Vivo T5(L)=emergencies(don’t plan to use)

Main Weapon:
Emik S30 = 200.00ped
Light blp pack= as much as I can afford hehe (got some peds tied up in loots)
will carry 20 to 40 ped of ammo each run.

Tag Weapons/finish last mob of the run (try to not use):
Sollomate Opalo = 3.80ped
Castorian Survival EnBlade-A = 13.50ped

Looks like my defense cost were slightly lowered using armor, but not by much :( I will try to take off some armor to see if I can lower my defense cost even more.
 
Looking good itchi, I hope the project turns out as well for you as it did for me :)

How is markup these days? Do they drop anything that has markup anymore? or has the iron missions driven it down to non existence?

narfi
 
Thanks Narfi :)
Most of the loots don't have much mark up except for the merp wools.

I am also keeping a log of the loots and will post a list of all the loots at the end as well :D
