Was just reading through a few n00b threads and had a picture from very long time in my mind, like when I started in orange jumper and running outside of PA and seen a guy killing a mob with a Vanguard defending his mining claim (which I didnt know what that was).
In late 2004, early 2005 the most creepy mob to me was a Conrnundacauda and whenever I've seen it, I tried to avoid it and run as much as I can in the opposite direction - to run in some Faux or Merp or Snable/Exa
I remember some spot close to Zychion where we noobs were able to "trap" mobs in a pit, there were young Atrox around and Faux (not Falx). So one guy was always trying to attract the mob and make them run into the pit so we other were able to sweat them. To get rid of them some guy in Knight Armor (OMG, the most uber armor to me these days) then killed them and if he was a nice guy, we dragged a few more mobs into the pit.
These were really good times and EU was a total gripping expirience when you made 10PED a day with sweating and selling it at 4-5PED/1K to some guys at PA - when PA was a crowded place and like most trades were done there or at Camp Phoenix, later Twins became more popular due to the Argos that have been around Twins. A little more to the north and north east there was a good spawn for drones and a little further north east were Warriors and Trooper - which was hard to kill in Vigi armor and some 6a plates
I remember making 500ped with sweating only and bought a set of Shogun or maybe also some Knight parts or Kobold, it was a weird mix but with the first mkII and a Bravo you didnt had to run away from Exa anymore, you finally killed them and sold wool to crafters in PA.
My first soc was the Sweathogs and from back in these days I still have contact with two guys from back then Graham Numptey Johnson and Christian Pollus Hawk.
Yes...these were great times.
Oh well...lunch time...colleagues calling
Have some memories from long time ago too? Share them, maybe we gathered sweat together at CP or at Zychion
