First of all, I am not 100% sure this is real, but the images are pretty convincing and the story is to. Second, I don't know if this is only in NI or also on other planets. OK just seen this post by HinDragoz on PCF and it kinda scared me a bit. He posted the following images: For those of you not understanding what he is showing here, he is showing that he got a claim while mining for enmatter that contained a IV of sweat. He mined about 230.000 of sweat there !!!! WTF??!! a bit later in the tread we got a link to this page: which shows us that sweat is now used for crafting !!!! again WTF??!! So if anyone can get a IV of sweat (230.000 of it) this will make the newbie sweating business obsolete and newbies will have no way to get any money to play to game .
yea, saw that sweat is a crafting mat from looking at one of the BP's when it was a prize in a event the other day.... wow, that's a hella lotta sweat though. damn right noobs on caly outta business if that's correct. Now, who's gonna be the first to get a sweat tower? grab ur 109s folks!
Don't treat a wiki as authoritative if you question the validity of data presented on one. Double check source info since everyone can edit it.
Don't worry AG I don't (I do a lot of editing in our wiki, remember :)) But I don't have any means of checking it right now, so I hope that someone can confirm it here and it seems Nobati did just that, but I will try to get my hands on a BP myself for absolute confirmation.
I can confirm that there are blueprints that use Sweat right now and by the names of them they are on ROCKtropia
Why would it make it obsolete? It's all supply and demand. The demand for sweat will be much higher if used in crafting hence there will be a supply shortage. So this will be a method to bridge the gap. Remember MA can adjust the drop of sweat from mining to control the price i.e. if they want the price to be high they'll reduce the amount gained from mining, if they want it low will increase the amount gained from mining. Chances are sweat prices may well increase from what they are now... It makes it better for newbies actually because if all this is all true will probably mean sweat can be traded in auction on Rocktropia and would be much easier for it to be traded.
I agree that using sweat for crafting is a good thing, but dropping 230.000 of it in one claim is a bit to much and sweaters will need to sweat months to get that. And with the small amounts we see now used for crafting, it will not be much better, unless BP's drop that will use 1000+ sweat bottles.
