    Question: What is considered Eco?

    ECO is not determined by DPC alone. Mobs loot average ammounts - your aim is to bring your costs as close to the average loot as possible, sometimes using a slightly less "eco" gun is better if you have higher dps, therefore taking less damage in fap and armour repairs (and letting it regen...

    Explosiv3(level5) question

    Although, from my experience, you can get + or - 3 levels BP from the BP you are clicking, most commonly you get the same level blueprint or just 1 below or above. So clicking level 5 blueprints probably would be better. Also, clicking explosive blueprint does not mean you are more likely to...

    Question: Enhancers. Do you use weapon enhancers at any cost?

    Price of enhancers can never really be reasonable because the crafting system. For whatever reason, despite being stackable, the maximum you can craft at one time is 1 and the residue output makes up the rest, which means crafters have to sell at a ridiculous markup just to minimise their losses...

    Question: Does mob maturity make a difference on item drops?

    Higher maturities drop different items at different frequencies. I have noticed this pre vu15, not really looked into it afterwards. But pre vu15 for example argo below scout rarely dropped eye oil. then after scout dropped it frequently. This would apply to item drops too I assume, I doubt...

    Info: Finished Ambulimax Iron, results and stats ...

    Ambu drops no MU, boar has no MU, expected loss. Combibo will actually be better because 30% of the loot is muscle oil which sells for 116%. As for guns, I do think they lowered drop rates a lot in an effort to make people buy crafted items.

    Mining enhancer break rates?

    A real test needs to be done, but as mentioned.. too fast. As far as I can see there is really no real reason for people to use (L) finders at all, which is bad.

    Pixie is dropping!

    For people saying it's TT food. TT+5 is massive hunting daik.

    Do you remember when EU was climbing?

    It is truly one of a kind, and that is really the ONLY reason it still exists. Not because of any real successful execution by MA.. Excellent concept, ridiculous execution. If another company took up this idea and developed it properly, EU would vanish as it would not even be able to attempt...

    Want to Improve Hunting Loot? Fix Crafting

    Said it before, will say it again: Crafting should be a 100% return system, with no TT loss, at least on BPs with max COS... And it should be advertised as such. The current 90/95% bar should be replaced with a returns bar, which should go up to 100% dependent on skills and QR. Still add...

    FYI: Current mining loot pool status - TERRIBLE

    The variance is too high for most people to accept as variance: thus a culture of conspiracy theories when somebody experiences bad luck. MA should just increase the returns to 100% TT and charge a tax on ammo and probes and repairs instead... work out how to tax (L) items (an idea would be to...

    FYI: Current mining loot pool status - TERRIBLE

    To be honest, this thread has been massively de-railed, I think you guys should take this argument to another thread.. or just stop, since it's the same argument people have and have been having for the past 10 years over and over again.

    WhiningSkeptic's hunting log

    Congrats on the loot. I don't really know the value of it, but MU +250 looks good, though might be hard to actually get that! Was this a WOF mob?

    :( A man after my own heart, I can't tell you the pain I felt after hoffing on growth molecules. Luckily, all the devils tail I found in that area made up for it and it was just a small hof, but still :(

    I didnt come here to argue, only to express logic. Of course because that logic defies your belief you see it combative. I play this game as much as any casual player. I by no means play this game on your scale, I don't have to, enough people like you share their logs so that I can analyse it...

    Info: Unlimited Pornogrind

    I was genuinely interested in what your logic was. So you believe that tax doesn't effect TT returns because MA essentially swallows the tax defecit by increasing your TT returns by the ammount of tax the LA owner has set? In which case I would simply say: why would MA give the LA owner the...

    Hey, sir. Please can you explain to us underlings the maths behind why you don't think mining in a taxed area would negatively effect your return?

    Loot distribution changes: Combibo

    Remember this is only "phase one" of a new loot system, as per dev notes. As for my choice in mob, I said I was doing this strictly for the iron challenge, which I am nearly done, so will complete. It was just a fun little thing I did in between other activities, and hasn't really cost me...

    Loot distribution changes: Combibo

    I can see you are upset, but you are so blatantly wrong and missing the point its unreal. You are not even attempting to use logic, you are just getting mad and calling me a "fan boy". Are you kidding? My last major post was a HUGE criticism of the economy and Mind arks crafting trees - HARDLY...

    They say in the dev notes that this is only 'Phase one' of the new loot distribution system. So they may indeed go further.

    Loot distribution changes: Combibo

    Huh? The 101% applies to yourself even if you convert it and use it.. which unless you are stopping all together, you are going to make use of. If you were profitting from hunting I'd see your complaint, but I seriously doubt you were. Even with your "salable" stacks (Which mostly sit in your...

    Sityl's 10k Argo Hunting Log

    Lets look at what you are actually saying. In reality, there is about 2% between eye oil and muscle oil currently to be fair. But if you want Muscle oil, hunt a mob that drops muscle oil. That's how it always should have worked. It's a basic concept really in any mmorpg, you hunt something for...

    Sityl's 10k Argo Hunting Log

    I am sorry you feel bad about your run, but logic and comments like this seriously the reason MA are scared to make real changes that change the economy. Your loot had no markup to begin with. It's only day 2, MU hasn't changed in accordance with supply yet. You will see.

    Shrapnel is what to do with?

    If you plan to hunt again, right click it and press "convert to ammo". You will get 101% of the TT value in Universal ammo, which is untradable. Only do this if you wish to use it as ammo.
