Newbies swunting log of calypso

Okay I guess we cant call this calypso swunting log anymore because I left caly and plan to stay on ark for a very very long time. :D Also log will have to be more detailed since I have some cash flows uninfluenced by hunts. Currently hunting caraboks and I must say, thats one busted mob! Evade gains are crazy, almost faster than SG lvls. Did a puny bash event so that will explain some of the weird loots I will post. All loots are for sale to anyone interested I will stockpile them and not TT unless I absolutely have to. (although I do wonder if anyone need dilluted sweat) :) All ammo was converted and used to very last drop(15ped hunt).

Oh and caly loot will be kept seperate from ark loot and not being mentioned in ark logs.

Bankroll:
40ped healing service earnings
13ped from selling 10k sweat
5ped from selling at ssi 2k sweat
4ped loss for transport

Nice that you like the caraboks. And what you were saying, it's very good for your evader skills.

I've finished the gallards and they are not as good as the caraboks in giving defensive skills. But now I'm outside Valiant firebase to swunt the monura female (13 hp) and monura male (12 hp) and they are really just as good as the caraboks in giving sweat gatherer and evader skills. The only thing is that they hit a little bit harder and I think an evader profession level of 10 or higher is needed to do it in a relaxed way.

Good luck with your Arkadian adventure and nice to see you're going fast with your SG.

Im considering excel sheet at this point. :D Thank you for kind words Watje, but to me it rises so slooooooow. Did another 15 ped hunt, and it turns out dilluted sweat is used by very select few...So by the end I'ts very likely I will tt it. Also outside of guns I believe I have got every single possible loot from carabok.

Again just a few % missing from next SG level. And another pretty average 15 ped hunt. BUT we have broken one of the changed goals! So heres the next one: Swunt all the carabok missions! Currently I'm at 466/5000, a long road ahead, but quite doable.

Was in hospital for quite some time, which explains why I havent posted a report so long( I also forgot some things I had done before, so forgive me). But uh, well, I finished another 15ped hunt.. pretty average.

One of those rare hunts where I got back more tt loot than spent. 15 ped spent, 16.32 ped back in tt loot. Thought it will go on forever. Also found out tt pistol has like no decay(I won it at another contest), after all this ordeal it has decayed 30 pec. Also arkadia is very very very begginer friendly, there are many events(both in game and forum based) aimed at the very begginers, just have to look out for them and participate.

Ok lowest loot so far but still not entirely terrible afair. Also won 20 ped at event so I guess I'm fine. Archieved 41 agility so it means bye bye to SSI. Getting close to 50k sweat on ark( to check theory about bulk sweat sell mentioned earlier) and working on one of my own theories about rarely mentioned topic- ammo recycling. I always have had this feeling that recycling shrapnel and using all your ammo to the very last drop is better than tting it. Now every hunt I'm just gonna write it down... for both mine and your benefit.

Total loot before ammo recycling(including ammo):11.49

I'm simplifying this log for more ease to read and personal sanity of mind, If I write every single loot down I will go mad + it's not very interesting for you or me. From now on only tt value total. I will mention if something interesting shows up in loot, like right now, I have actualy managed to get 4 soft hides from caraboks( which is very very rare drop from them to be honest). I finaly globaled on caraboks but the global was 2 guns and 3 ped shrapnel. Have never counted puny guns in loot to sell because i use them myself as free tools to cycle ped. I will start counting guns when I run out of the stockpile I have.(It might happen) So far I'm doing relatively fine although I have gambled a bit and lost some peds that way(I attended paid events and lost a few peds).

Also now I can do longer hunts. One of the main reason why my hunts were 15 ped ones was that I had very limited carry weight, but now I have reached the point I can use tt knives effectively(maxed), so got some strenght and long needed carry weight increase( those sweat bottles are REALY HEAVY!)

Furthermore have sweated those 50k sweat bottles on ark and will try to sell whole stack for 2ped/k.

This was a 20ped hunt(2 knives and 2ped finisher ammo) and here are the results:

Total loot before ammo recycling(including ammo):17.02 After:16.15
Weapon decay: 0.17 TT pistol, 0.43 Piron PBR-0

Remember that theory about selling sweat in bulks? Well its a total and complete failure so far. Actualy its even worse, because now that I'm selling that huge amount of sweat, some people think I'm a reseller. Ain't that fun? I did manage to sell 5k to Rick Swisha Jilla for the simple fact that I have managed to gather so much sweat alone(ty so much!), but I have long since swunted it back and then some(60k whooo). My money situation has kinda been saved because of the Monria event. We want green clothes and what gives green color? Thats right, carabok hides. Sold all mine for 120% and the some oil residue for 101%. I think its a good deal. And I won an event for 20 ped but had to use one of my blades for it, that's why there isn't so much sweat swunted.( was most loot)

Notes: Caraboks now drop steel blue color paint cans. Very rare drop since I only got 2 but still. Also its very frustrating that each planet has different forum. Why cant we just have 1 for all planets?
This was a 30ped hunt(3 knives and 3ped finisher ammo) and here are the results:

The "nothing special" hunt. Caraboks also drop thin wool now(very rare drop). Used my sweat to buy a passport, sold 59k for something less than 2ped/k.(I got tired of selling it, not very good for such a type of experiment.) I dunno why almost everyone I have met hate the newbie hoverpod, personaly, I love it. Its so much better than caly newbie car. Also 1642 out of 10000 caraboks,getting close to the goal, but what am I going to do with the rest of the sweat I will get?

you can say that. I got exactly 2 thin wool from 15000 carabok ;)

that reminds me that I never put my 5k monura female log up. soon...
 
how are the carabok hides going now? see a price hike due to the new uniforms?
 
Cant say about price hike but hide price for me averages at 115% although I have sold for higher.
Ok nvm,that was week and half ago, looks like the price has spiked. Yet theres a guy buying hides for 116% at ark chat?

Crazy crazy crazy busy with various stuff in RL so don't have much time for Entro, but we are getting there. Also Sundays seem to be sell days, I managed to sell so much stuff I thought I had no hope of selling like diluted sweat and inferior cloth extractors... Basicaly emptied my storage by a lot. Eh I have to start to use MF chips to accelerate my SG although Im lvl 4 in dmg. Will be crazy uneco for next few hunts. Also my mentor entered online after so much time(almost a year) so I bought sleipnir combo with oil and graduated at toulan.

This was a 51ped hunt(3 knives, 3ped finisher ammo,sb noobie knife, 1 random powerfist I had in caly storage) and here are the results:

Mindforce hunting wasn't that horrible but uh for a begginner, entry fee is what it is. Was very very busy in RL and going to be even busier, but still making progress. I lost a few of my logs along the way so there wont be ammo recycle mention here.

This was a 173.21ped hunt and here are the results:

Eh mindforce hunt is horrible if you pay for markup. The fact I bought 2 castorian sentinel sword for fun isn't helping, they are uneco too.No conversion log cause I was busy and forgot. :/ It wouldnt be bad if I gut L for no markup or UL corrosion chip...

10k Caraboks done now yaay! Taking a short vacation trip to caly. Got UL corrosive attack chip for 200 ped. TTed most of the loot that is 101% or completely useless(carabok leg fur, dilluted sweat), since I dont plan to return to ark soon.

Oh boy, look at the time!

Well its been a long time since I updated this. The simple explanation is that some real life stuff came 1st un I just didn't have time to play game. I logged in rarely but somehow managed to do 100 haters on rocktropia and a few hundred vixens.(I have no logs of this but I did make some mad bank) Also loot 2.0 has hit us and oh boy its a rollercoaster. so far it looks to be rather bad. I feel bad for critting because I get back 0.00 shrap loot. Also the new efficiency stat seems closely tied to how much return per average you will get back(from amount spent), so the real income seems to be from multipliers.

But enough about that. I have come back to arkadia, started gallards (I had a few hundred of them done from events), bought a few Auds... in short lets continue my goal. :)
