Hello, talking it over with my soc - I decided to make this low level hunting log to see how things are with a FEN weapon with high efficiency compared to my day to day life.

I am hunting Big Daikiba but they are mixed with Exo - I avoid them when possible. I went ahead and killed 2500 peds worth of them with my old school blade and I will compare old with new and see if maybe I can get better returns.



Old Setup:
Main Weapon: Leoi Shock Dagger + Melee Trauma IV Amplifier
DPP: 2.964
Efficiency: 63.4%
Finisher: Omegaton M2100A1 (L) + ZX Sinkadus
DPP: 3.011
Efficiency: 65.2%
Tagger: Adjusted Bukin's Spare Rifle + Omegaton A101
Rings:Ares Ring Improved + Athenic Ring Improved
Armor Adjusted Harrier + Pixie Arms and Face
Healer: Adjusted Restoration Chip + Regeneration Chip IV (L) for emergencies at 0% mu as the daikiba drop these chips

New Setup: (same except main weapon)
Main Weapon: ArMatrix SB-10 FEN Edition + Melee Trauma II Amplifier
DPP: 3.01186
Efficiency: 73.5%
Other Bonuses: I can now use Universal Ammo to hunt - so I don't loose .5% selling it to others.

2500 Ped Test Data
2152 Ped Returns
-347 Peds
86% Returns
42% Returned as Shrapnel
# of Globals: 14
Average Global Size: 16.92 Peds
Please see 2nd post for exactly what I looted to compare composition.

2525.76 PED FEN Comparison Data
FEN TT SPENT 2525.76
FEN RETURN -235.39
FEN RETURN % 90.68%
FEN % OF SHRAPNEL IN LOOT 45.67%
# of Globals: 9
Average Global Size: 28.11
Please see 3rd post for exactly what I looted to compare composition.

My Relevant Skill Data before the FEN Log
HP: 133.8 HP
Animal Looter: 12.16
Evader: 14.65


So essentially my Efficiency went up 15.9%, and my DPP went up 1.5%

My Bankroll is: 7.5k Peds - that is what is on my card now. I do not plan on selling too much of the loot until I am done with the Daikiba Bronze. I do plan on selling the L items I loot, as that is easier than messing with stacks.

I am currently on Stage V which is 10,000 KP.

I did Stage 3-4 and 3.4k/10k of Stage V with those 2500 peds I initially spent in the last few days.

Let the hunting Begin! Let me know if you want me to include other data

Should be take bets on the outcome?

Thank you everyone for the well wishes. We will see how this ends up. Starting good so far
 
sigining up to follow :popcorn:
 
Same, i'm curious to compare with my logs :)
 
Iron Daikiba done! Onto the Bronze. Sadly the Bronze is not killpoints - so I have to kill 10,000 big fat stinking daikiba.

My Daikiba skull collection is going to be massive, I will need another pitbull :laugh:

Also this is quite the interesting predicament I am in. Since the FEN blade uses UA or Weapon Cells, I will be for the first time ever ... buying shrapnel for my melee weapon! Hah how cool is that? Love the money this thing is saving me

You might have noticed I took the MU factor out of my ME. I will just keep tabs on TT and not markup.
 
Not the best day today but also a small sample for sure. My grand total return seems to be going down, but I think the next hunt ill do better. Not a single global today.

OK so all done with the 2500 ped comparison Data
I WILL keep this log going if there is interest in me doing so, however i wont track the item by item loot just in/out returns. So please comment on this hunting log if you want to see me continue my daikiba journey. I am just 537/10000 so there surely will be a long time to go.

looks like the efficiency does mean something and I am glad to get some more tt returns back. I am sure i just need to get a hof to get better returns past 90%

I would be interested to see your log continue. I would love to know your animal looter lvl if you care to share it.
I've been keeping a log myself with one of the mayhem vendor rifles (lr-20) sinds june 2018 on the Toulan forum should you be interested.

+1 on keeping us updated on your looter level. Also I think most will want to see your shrapnel % of tt using this set up vs not but those are my thoughts.

Nice job so far :)
 
thanks for the feedback guys! I will keep it going then! I am setting my mini-goal of 10k turnover with the blade and amp to see how things go.

As far as my looter level: I am 12.57 - i can update this on every hunt as it slowly progresses
as far as keeping tabs of shrapnel: done! I added it to the spreadsheet and applied it to all previous hunts as well with the FEN blade

do you have a link to your log? I def would be interested in checking it out
 
thanks for the link BK read it all and its amazing how well your returns are. Glad its working out for you!

I spent a few hundred more ped but didn't get great returns. I did use up the rest of my shock dagger so had a lot more repairs than ammo usage. It was just sitting in storage so figured might as well widdle down the tt. I do not plan on selling the blade. I have too many regrets when I sell equipment.

this ped was spent on daikibas, argos, estos, scaberous, feffs, a chirpy daily, and a fugubara daily.

Nice log so far, please keep it up. 90% returns is well below the norm, so please do not be discouraged - it will not always be that way. Stick it out in the bad times and push through to the good. You should land right around 95% TT return even at a relatively low looter profession level.
