They are the ones I am looking for too, have not had any joy finding them though.
None on my FL have been able to guide me there either.

I don't understand what all the complaining is about. Let's assume you train everyday IRL. Instead of once or twice a year, your city suddenly begins holding fitness competitions every other week. You can continue training for personal satisfaction, but now you also have the option to challenge yourself further by entering one or all of these new competitions.

If my local gym with five instructors that I ask for adivce or help from time to time. Goes from having fitness competitions every other week instead of once a year. Im convinced it will impact accessability to my gyms gear and their help, on days where I workout and they have events.

Im just saying, dont compare bananas with apples.


PS. Events work for me in Entropia, for others maybe not.

Searched extensively the Osere area and found nothing :( ... prolly they forgot to add the spwan - wouldn't surprise me :laugh: ... anyway, the loot and the decay is in the elite's casino, so who cares about the low-rollers ? :silly2:
 
Seems MA trying to milk the semideath cow... instead give her some fresh grass :laugh:

Yes they are there, huntin them right now @ 808 , 696 - a bit of distance N of Troy
 
+1 for MA

events are good it gather more ppl togheder is good for the game play.

droping itemz is good too the economy will hit the all time low (mayby even lower taht 2004) which will let more ppl buy gear and thus play more = more money for MA

eventualy reselers will not be able to estimate prices and will lose on items they have on hold = good for the whole game

all in one GJ MA

Since beginning of Other Planets' existence, everybody knew that Planet Partners will be competing with each other for attracting players to their Planet.
Complaining about both Planet Partners holding events at the same time is like complaining that both of your local shops have promotion on the same range of products.
Just get over it and chose where you wanna leave your money.

Apart of that, how do you know that Calypso didn't planned that event before Arkadia decided to throw in theirs?


One thing you are right is that probably Calypso have more toys in toolbox, but I think it was said somewhere that they test some MA's implementations before they are ready to implement Universe wide.
Is that good or bad, more or less attractive for player? Again, one must decide for themselves and stay on Calypso or fly to another Planet.
 
I went to two places looking for this as well and didn't see squat, so went and hunted ambus and did some manufacturing and got two globals.........Would be nice if they gave coordinates to these things..... but nope so I threw in the towel and that is that.
 
the three I found are:

directly outside PA (west)
directly SE of ithaca
directly in between osere and ft troy
 
HELP! At Nymphtown spawn we dont get any more VIGGs :( All others spawning exept Vigg :///
 
Thanks for ruining one of my favourite mobs!

I used to love hunting Mulmums because the Elite were so rare and I thought the chance to global or even hof was high.
Now that we have enough Mulmums for everyone to kill, I realize they are the worst looting mob.
After killing over 50 Elites solo, I had 1 global of 53 ped, and I see hundreds of Vigg being killed without globals.


It got me thinking that loot is reduced during events to prevent the Level +300 giving ATH all day.

And the marmot, it puts the chocolate in the alu-foil

 
I kind of wish there were some elites in a shared loot zone. Not saying ALL of them, just one zone of shared loot for elites. I don't have time to make a team and hunt them all day, but it'd be nice to go blast away with some folks for an hour or so.

Convenient to launch a competing event with Arkadia when they could have done better by doing it next week instead.

convenient when a "investor" in arkadia comes to complain about events that coincide with arkadian events.

and arkadian advisors and forum moderators probably should not complain about calypso events without noting their own apparent vested interest in the issue?

why is it any interest of arkadia when calypso held events, we have been assured by others that arkadia is the fastest growing planet partner with its own customers and is such a fantastically run place how would calypso holding events effect it in any way?
and if it does effect it in any way what is arkadia doing leaching calypso customers, and why are people connected to it complaining that arkadia is not getting to leach enough customers from calypso and its deed-holders when it runs events?

i am neither a investor or a ark advisor.... do i get a say? or will i get shot down as well?

Several times when events have happened on other planets suddenly kim pops up spawning uber mobs... when i was there he was asked if he was spawning them as the top 3 spots on hof board were from ark oratan event... i think his answer was something like "its a slap in the face when they are on top of hof board" we then had about a hour of uber mobs being spawned with increasing HP
Its not just ark tho, i seem to remember a large spawn-fest after a large pop dragon hof as well.

ofc the planets compete for players/income, i get that, and a well organised/advertised event is great it gives us choice.... but the above struck me as a direct reaction to a successful event and seems to me a bit unethical

so imo there is a element of tactical planning around the timing of events

It is what he said and nothing more. I've seen it even before I had an LA. That is an easy cop-out retort Fallen, when the point being made is so much more than what you are trying to grasp at.

But, it is what it is.

Since every planet is independent they should have the right to hold an event whenever they choose to. It is really as simple as that.
 
Slap in the face indeed. We need a permanent solution!

what is a easy cop-out is the both of you ignoring the meat of what i said to focus on some minor aside.
so i ask the both of you again, of what concern is it of arkadia that calypso holds events whenever it wants?
why should arkadia feel it can leach of calypso? or if this is not the case, why do "supporters" of arkadia feel this way?
or to rephrase it, if arkadia does not have enough of its own customers to sustain its business then why should calypso and its deed holders be paying the price?

the way i see it is that if arkadia wants to hold events for its customers, great, if it is extremely lucky and some calypso customers wish to join in, good for arkadia, but to then hear conspiracy theories that calypso is sabotaging arkadia is ludicrous and smacks of a bizarre sense of entitlement.

are the welfare handouts that arkadia has received in the past, and to the detriment of calypso not been enough? the destruction of calypso weapon crafting for example? or the moving of vital calypso resources off planet?

Oh come on now. This is ridiculous. Ever since the introduction of the other planets, caly has been playing keep-up-with-the-jones. Every thing introduced by a planet partner has shown up on caly (save for treasure mining, for now that is) in some form or another, usually with a twist to make it just a bit better than the planet partner was allowed.

Ark had a huge variety of weapons, most were comparable to caly weapons however the blp versions had a SLIGHT advantage in decay vs damage done. That is the only hand out Ark has ever had, and MA made sure it did not last. You want to talk about the death of caly weapon crafting? You seriously blame that on Ark? Look no further than MA. They went oh no, Ark has a huge amount of different types of weapons better nerf that.

Not only did they make ark weapons have some of the worst skill req to dps ratios in the universe, they killed off the entire line of caly crafted weapons in favor of new better-than-ark weapon bps. And then on top of that they made high eco low decay weapons absolutely rain from caly mobs. There is not one weapon bp in the entire universe that does not a caly looted equivalent that sells for far below cost to craft. You want to get pissed about the destruction of weapon crafting aim it at caly and MA.


On the topic of the removal of key resources, that was not Ark. Ark also had many key resources moved off planet. Guess who got most of those key resources moved to nice to mine areas. MA's failing beta test of the planet partner system got them all.


There is plenty to criticize Ark about, but at least get it right.

Haha, with all the new planets we should have second WoF an interplanetary WoF :D

Pretty much with full 12 man team hunting every round, and one round for each planet :)

Good way to settle arguments! :evilking:

this is true, but to say that arkadia only had a slight advantage before that is missing the fact that these weapons were selling like hotcakes when introduced and did so until MA swung the pendulum back.

it is true that arkadia did not move the resources, but you cant tell me that MA removed or reduced some shared resources from calypso to RT and arkadia to help calypso?
these movements have caused huge spikes in the prices of resources such as niks. and duru. in the past, and more recently megan, and currently pearl sand. this had knock on effects on the price and viability of calypso crafted items such as mining amps and more recently caly crafted faps.

but again, nobody seems willing to explain to me why arkadian events deserve protection, and why some people seem to think that arkadia has some innate right to have customers from other planet partners flock to their events and why there are these conspiracy theories that calypso is purposely damaging arkadia.

maybe i am naive but existing participants were "sold" the idea of planet partners based upon the premise that they would bring their own customers and help the game grow but the reality seems to be that they are surviving by leaching on the existing player base, and by extension, the calypso deed holders (disclaimer, i have never owned a deed in game)

sure ill directly address ur question. even tho that was not what my previous post was about, in that i was addressing your assumption that events at the same time are coincidence

you seem to think that we as players are exclusive to a planet, ie u are a caly bod and therefore if u travel to another plant it must be the planet leaching u..... to the detriment of caly
The model u are suggesting is caly players on caly stay on caly and ark players stay on ark and if u move around its the planets fault for thinking they can leech you and having a sense of entitlement.....

my view is that we are all just players who are free to travel around as we see fit, I dont play calypso, i play EU and i believe the U stands for something...... if i see a event on caly i like, i'll go there and compete, if i see a ark event i like ill go there and compete. It is my choice where i go and what event i compete in, if ark is "leeching" players then thats because they are doing something right, and likewise if caly has a well attended event its a sign they have put on a decent event.
I like choice, and frankly imo choice in a free market is a good thing. I dont really get why thats such a problem to you.

My problem is when a event has short notice and just so happens to conflict with another planet, or when kim pops up spawning uber mobs just to compete on the hof list. To me thats not playing fair! and frankly all the time spend in these childish feuds is time that could have been spend sorting ingame problems out

but im prolly wrong and ppl must really want to be locked to planets and have the devs waisting time left right and center....... :rolleyes:
