Hi,

I recently started playing EU again (about 2.5 months ago) and now i need some advice regarding gear use at low level hunting.

Skills:

- Laser sniper (Hit) lvl 41.
- Laser sniper (Dmg) lvl 39.
- Laser pistoleer (Hit) lvl 38.
- Evader lvl 22.
- Animal looter lvl 23.
- 144 HP.

I have some skills on BLP too, but a bit less than Laser, i'm willing to skill up if needed. I think I'm back for a long run now, so any advice in advance will be welcomed.

Hunting setup:
- Weapons. At the moment i'm just using ArMatrix LR-30, LR-35 @ 115% + A106 (~69% EFF) and also ArMatrix LP-25, LP-30 @ 110% + A104 (~68% EFF) as a secondary weapon. Sometimes other not so efficient weapons i find cheap under average MU on AH (BSF Kaamos etc.).
- Armor. Adjusted Pixie + 5B/6A plates.
- Healing. Refurbished H.E.A.R.T. Rank IV + Hedoc SK-20 (L).

I had A-3 Justifier Mk. II, Adjusted as i started, but now it's sold.

I'm thinking what next step should i take with weapons, as paying MU on ArMatrix - i'm not sure it's worth it. Weapons i'm considering (i need to skill up for most of them):
- CalyTrek CR Spirit Mk. 1
- Maddox IV, Adjusted
- EWE EP-41 Military, Adjusted

I don't see any decent Laser Carbine or Pistol for a reasonable price and actually i'm not ready to pay 1-2K EUR for a gun in a game at this moment.

I'm choosing between these armor sets as an upgrade from Pixie Adjusted:
- Nemesis, adjusted.
- Phantom.

I will be very greatful if any of you spare your time to answer my questions.

I wish you all best of luck in EU! :D

Well i started this thread in a pretty f****d up way so it was invisible.

Anyway, I already did some decisions and got myself Phantom (M) armor set which it seems makes a big difference to the game experience in a whole. Also got Ares ring, Improved, which in hunting seems like a no brainer.

I made some progress skill wise and also i am at last getting some knowledge of how the game works these days.

Still considering UL weapons, but can't make up my mind - as ArMatrix seems to be a very good line considering DPP, even if you pay MU. Not sure about the skillgain speed though with L weapons, as it seems very slow atm.

IMO any mu payed on an L weapon should be considered to be loss. If you plan on hunting alot for a long time u should get SIB UL weapon and preferably one with decent Efficiency. Also get an amp (the a1xx or a2xx series for laser, no idea about blp amps)
 
Well it depends on how you look at it, the same could be said about low efficiency weapons - if efficiency and DPP (which is close tied i suppose) actually means much in a long term.

You want any chance at getting break even in the long run eff will play a big role.
