Recording My Experience F2P

[Rigoesbueno]

Read The Rules and hope this is not in violation of anything!

Before I begin I wanted to give a big thanks to Noh (who helped me as I joined on camp icarus and I would not have stayed engaged as long as I have because the game is so jank) and to Lorespade's society and youtube videos.

I first off wanted to say that I am still fairly new to the game (been playing for ~1 month). That being said, over my short play time I wanted to see how far that I could make it as an exclusively F2P player and more importantly creating a day by day log for other F2P players to expect. I still have plenty to learn and several things that I have not even begun to understand. I, so far, have spent my days at planet calypso swunting sabakumas and it will probably stay that way for a while. It lets me have something in the background while simultaneously building some stats. I'll try to create a detailed list of changes in account value.

Below you can see the progress I made on the account yesterday. Numbers may change for actual value of some actions because it is a variable formula (Avg(sweat buys)) but overall the differences should be negligible.

If you have so much patience, I suggest you buy one of the starter packs, and then move forward with no-deposit rule, it will make your task way easier and more satisfying as you will see growth result faster..

good luck !

Dust Keep Valley Turp cage allows you to swunt without taking dmg.

Sometimes one can get nice lil globals there too.

Semi safe spot to walk to when you learn the route and you can revire to nearby Fort and TP.

Welcome to the game and goodluck on your journey!

Hey! Best of luck with your grind, hoping to see some good results here and some meaningful, longterm progress!

Btw, do you happen to know a player named Super Spesh? You could ask him for advice since he too was a very successful beginner.

Took a bit easy today and there were some downs to my swunting and had to pay for some major repairs! But hey great skill development. That being said I was able to sell some stored sweat at a good price! Also, added a new deed (CLD)!

[In Love With]

While this is nice to read, there is no way you can keep this detailed log up ... I strongly suggest something that you can fill out in 2 minutes (at most) to keep track of things...

It truly doesnt matter what you repair, what tt you fap is etc.

Welcome onboard, I was f2p for 5 years, made a ton of money, withdrew to only invest almost 40.000 Euros to buy 2x LAs to then withdraw a lot more after that, lol ... Its a long journey, game is a lot harder then it used to be but f2p still works as long as you do not count your hours and are patience and clever about things

 

[Rigoesbueno]

Its a dynamic spreadsheet but I can see into just major categories. such as swunt costs (vivo, instafoe), sweat, tt related items. Look forward to it!

 

[Rigoesbueno]

I was able condense down a lot of the data into a few cells in my spreadsheet. Hope this makes its a little easier to digest. I was also able to by an Arkadia Moon Deed!

[Some Random Player]

the easiest profit you can make as no depo small stakes player is next island. theres a bunch of dailies that give between 7% and 15% of kill cost back (one even close to 30% but that includes skills and thus needs at least like 200 peds bankroll to be effective). overall you can cycle like 60 ped per day and you should longterm make an easy 2-5% over TT cost with mission rewards even with no skills. the more skills you got the better the return is obviously.

if you want a more detailed explanation send me a pm

Big day yesterday. Had to buy another instafoe and had to repair my vivo. One the bright side had an insane pull from sites! Also decided that I am going to get into the healing community as I think that is an awesome profession.

Out of interest, what are you swunting to get these sorts of returns?

 

[Rigoesbueno]

usually subakumas on half moon cove. Yesterday a lot of the loss was due to using my Vivo in a swunting circle 21 PED went into repairs.

 

[Msturlese]

Healing and biotropic skills from humble vivo are among most valuable ones.

Hint LEVEL 100 faps heal.fixed amount of Life and not random like vivo
And heal that amount at whatever level

 

[Rigoesbueno]

Realized I didnt do my daily log. Lol. Well not much bought a couple of the most valuable deeds based on their trailing P/E ratios (a caluclator i built)

I also created a python script that will collect all the data for mobs that I kill so that I can determine the average returns for each one. First on the list is the sabakumas

Decent day. Found out Sabakumas still drop Omegaton B101 (L). A 1/4 to the 1000 mark so that I can be confident on the data!

Lv 100 faps generally require lv 20.95(or 21.05, I forget which) paramedic to be maxed on them. Vivo S10 is the correct choice until rank 6 heart.

Had to buy another instafoe

Do NOT use instafoes unless you have Xenobiology unlocked for scanning animals and mutants, or robotology unlocked for scanning robots.


It's a 100% waste of ped before then and you do NOT get ANY back in your returns.

Thats wild! What does the Xenobiology do that makes it worth it after the fact? I didnt know that man guess its better to learn early than late!

Thats wild! What does the Xenobiology do that makes it worth it after the fact? I didnt know that man guess its better to learn early than late!

It's still not really worth it, but it gives a very small percent in animal looter and mutant looter, robotology giving a little bit in robot looter. Such a small amount not you nor anyone else would be able to notice unless the skill was in the thousands of points.

If you're looking for cheap looter skills, cut trees.
