What is Sweat?
[wrap=right]https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/gallery/files/9/2/0/5/Bottle.JPG[/wrap]Vibrant Sweat is a container of native Calypso creature life energy force. This enmatter is one of the parts in making Mind Essence, the energy needed for forming most Mindforce powers. Refine it together with Force nexus to make Mind Essence. Sweating is free to do, and is used primarily as a source of income for many players.

Step One: Find a Monster
Find a creature to sweat. Most creatures contain sweat, but robots and mutants do not. For starters look for an exarosaur, combibo, berycled, snablesnot, or another low-level creature. Low-level creatures are less likely to attack during the sweating process.

To be able to extract sweat from a creature you need to be close. The closest monster on the radar to the right is at the maximum distance to begin sweating.
In the options menu (Default: O), make sure 'Move to target when interacting' is checked. This will automatically move you into range for sweating in following steps.

To extract sweat, Mindforce concentration is needed. The concentration period for sweating surrounds the player with a green aura.
There are several ways to concentrate: double-clicking the monster, right clicking on the monster and selecting 'Gather Sweat', or pressing the key associated with the 'Gather Sweat' action from the hotbar while the creature is selected.
When Mindforce concentration is completed the green aura will dissipate. The avatar's hands will glow green, indicating the avatar is ready to acquire sweat.
While the avatar is concentrating there are several things that can interrupt the process. Mindforce concentration can be interrupted by movement, being hit and taking damage, or equipping an item. If the process is interrupted, simply begin concentrating again.

Step Four: Acquire
To acquire sweat from the creature, as in concentration, double-click the monster, right click on the monster and selecting 'Gather Sweat', or press the key associated with the 'Gather Sweat' action from the hotbar while the creature is selected.
Unlike the concentration step, the avatar can move or be hit by a monster without interrupting the sweat acquiring process. Equipping items on the other hand, will interrupt this process.
When the acquiring process finishes, there are two likely results. A failed attempt will result in the following message "The Sweat acquiring failed." A successful attempt will result in between 2 and 22 bottles of sweat appearing in the loot window, which is automatically put into the inventory.

After the sweat acquiring step, it is possible to attempt to acquire sweat from the creature again. While within range of the creature: concentrate, and acquire again.
This process can be repeated until the creature has had all of its sweat extracted. When a creature has no more sweat to be gathered, any attempt to acquire sweat results in the message "You may not acquire any further sweat from this creature." A common term to describe this is that the creature is "dry."
