January 2008 - NOTM Diary

Well, I switched to a Rife because of all the running I did in a team with my pistol. They would get in 2-3 shots more if we started from the same place. Which means they ended up with more loot, and sometimes I didnt get nothing. So I now own my first Opalo with a Scope and Laser attached to it. (23.5 Skill Mod)

I just reached 3000 in total skill points.
I have reached lvl 1 in Rifleman (I think this is what this one is called.)
I have reached lvl 1 in Sniper.

I have figured out that the worst place for a noob to be is West of Troy. (You get hit for around... 188 hp.... And I did have Pixie Armor on at the time). :)

And when your stuck between the Bots, The Trox, and the Super Duper Quadiluper Trox Spider type things, you just have to pray for some help. These guys can see you when they are 3x out of your the first ring of your Radar. So when you see one moving, you run back to the outpost in hopes it gets them killed... If you die, well you end up there anyways. Its very hard to get out of there. But fun for a great laugh if you like dieing in one hit, and can take a joke.

Oh, yea, I went there because there was a Damsel in Distress. Once there, I died about 4 times before being able to get her out safely. 8D

 

:DWoot, just finished all unread post from last time I joined, and ALL unread post that this site had listed for me.

Now what am I to do?:tumbleweed:

 

read this one Xander lol

 

:search:Done!:search:

 

I started dropping probes again. Just dropped around 25 or so, and got back 17.5 ped or so after markup of Angelic, Nexus and Growth Molecules. Hope to have a longer run later.
Also, I have almost 2.7k of ME for sale and a mess of animal loots from exas, snabbles, and snarksnots. If anyone needs any of that stuff, please let me know. (stuff like hides, wools, oils, basic stone extractors, basicmineral extractors, strong cloth extractors, etc.)
My skill totals are around 5420 (not counting 93 Hitpoints)
My highest skills are:
Anatomy 418
Drilling 434
Laser Weapon Technology 447
Surveying 384

My highest skills are level 2 in Laser Sniper, Ranged Laser Damage, Laser Pistol, Drilling, Surveying, and Sweat Gather

 

I have some of the best friends that one could have on my friends list.
Including:
Red Red Sonia
Man of Honor
Lilly TigerBlue Blue
and Mad Nutter Women!

These are the friends you know.
I have many more friends ranging from noob (Less then 15000 skill points) to expert (More then 100,000 skill points), they have helped me, and I have helped them in one form or another.

I do not sale sweat for less than 1.0. now. (That is 10 full PEDS per 1k of sweat) because of my friends on my list.

I have been paid 31 PEDs so far for dieing for people.

When I buy something, I am averaging 10% profit of whatever I spent.

I team globaled Sunday and I have a very unique item that will not work in the auction house. It is a Odenfield Ventricle System. Its TT value is 17 PEDs, we are researching right now to find out what the trade value is. (It cannot be put on Auction) Off of that same global, I got a pair of Gremlin gloves, which has a market price of tt+117. I have put them in the auction for tt+100. The rest of the global was pretty much oils from the animal.

Soon, more is to come!

 

Before my life on Calypso:
:-({|=
There have been a lot of stories told about my life but none are true. At least I have never seen them to be true. I do not know where I have come from, nor do I know where I have been. All I know is what is, and that is I was pushed off the ship that was transporting me to the Milky Way Galaxy.
:tumbleweed:
Now that I am on Calypso:
Since they were so kind as to not leave me with any supplyâ??s, I had to figure out some way of making ends meet. I soon figured out that Sweat off of creatures helps to create Mind Essence and that other people will pay me to sweat for them. Needless to say, I started sweating as much as possible. My skills rose, Income started coming in, and I found myself barely able to support myself in this manner. So I began investing into a new life at the auction house.
:yahoo:
Soon I met a friend named Red Sonia, she was a beautiful young women eager to teach, and I was a student eager to learn. After asking as many questions that I could think of, Sonia showed me her home to which I found a Mann MPH gun. It had my name on it and Sonia gave it to me as my first gun in the game. However, this gun was a prize to me as it has brought me in a little income in which I can buy a few things and sale a few things at the auction house.
:53:
After getting a Mentor and a little more guidance, I soon found myself joining the NBK Legion, which it and its associates are a part of the top 50 list on both numbers and skill. I soon found myself asking one question after another to try to figure out where I want to go and what I want to do with my new life.
:greengoo:
I started hunting as soon as possible, first with a pistol, then a Rifle. I have hunted with the extra money that I have turned around in the auction house and I soon hope to graduate from my mentor. I am only a ¼ of the way there so far, and only 13 full days left to get the other 75%.
:medalofhonor:
Thanks to this forum as well as another, the people from this forum, my Society, and all of the people around calypso, this homeless man here on Calypso has started to earn his own way in life. In the future, after I graduate from my Mentor, I am planning on taking up the crafts of attachments as well as Armorer.
:toiletgrab:
Thank you everyone for your support and your post, every bit of information is useful information, even if it is in the miserable life of Kets and friends. I hope soon I will be as useful to you as you are to me.
:crapola:
And Thank you Talkerbot for filling us with crap to put our heads through the roof. Without you, this whole forum would make sense but would not be nearly as fun!
:housejumpin:
Party on EU-Chronicle, Party on!

 

Having a lot of fun in the arcade lately. Got a high score in Pacman. Really enjoying tower defense, but that high score seems impossible. Very impressive Shim.
Oh yeah, NOTM. I've been moving on with skilling in mining enmatter and hunting with my opallo +a101. I've managed to stay profitable with the mining providing the gains. I've made a couple of nice trades which helped me sell my ME, but I have a load of it to sell again. Also, if any one needs any cloth extractors, I have loads of many different types. Back to EU to sell and skill.
Still no globals, but steady skill gains.

 

Real Life has not alowed me to play this as much as i would like so i have not had a chance to sighn on as much as i would like... i should alreddy be at work as i type this :p but i just thought id drop a note letting you all know im still in this compatition and i wont let my time constrictions, stop me from being a competitive, oponent in this contest =) i have spent what time i can in skilling, and have, hunted and sweated a bit in the last few weeks, as well as mine'd... i do plan to give out some more TP runs for other players as soon as i have 4-6 hours of game play to be had... but as for now a sparadic hour or two evory now and then has helped my skills a bit... so it is evory one elses chance to beat me :D ok just kidding.... in any case this contest has bin alot of fun for me so far... and i recomend to all that you enter the sweating contest's.... good luck to you all and many HOF's to evory one =):53:

 

Today has been a fantastic day for me. First of all, I am at 46 hours and soon I will be crashing in my bed. But before I did, I wanted to tell you that I made it to CND tonight, This picture is my evidence.

When you make a great friend, sometimes what you do for them, is worth 10 fold and will come back to you. Simply put, all expenses paid including ammo, but not decay. I was told to use the ammo before he got back from from the bank. I used it as fast as I could, I gained 3 full lvls of Laser Sniper Rifle making me a lvl 5 from a lvl 2 in less then 3 hours. I gained over 300 skills in Rifle putting me over 800 and now I have just under 1200 to go to graduate.

I was promoted in my Soc to a Private. I now have over 5000 skills as of this morning, but should be well over 6000 now. No Globals or HoFs today, even though I killed over a 1000 things. :/

Well, that was the longest day and it was the best day I had so far.
:tease:May HoF guide your footsteps only if you grats me. :tease:

 

[-o<Well, I went on my first Beacon Run today.

It was kool and scary at the same time. :scare:I was going to take pics of the inside, but didnt want to spoil it for anyone who hasnt had this priviledge yet. So attached is a picture of the Spaceship and my crew getting on it.

I was the only one to die. :bonkyou:

But it was still a lot of fun while it laster. I was running in the back, and I let other people shoot the bot that killed me a full 2 times before I shot it once, and it chased after me and wouldnt stop until I died. :(

Hopefully I will have better luck next time. :)

 

you were so many? lol

 

Yes, there was a lot of us because it was training for us who have never been on a Beacon trip. It was actually a lot of fun while it lasted. Because as a noob, I am much slower then Matt (Leader of Natural Born Killers) who has an insane amount of skills (Well compared to me anyways. :) )

He was running ahead and killing things before I could catch up with him (For the most part. ) So literlly to get to the boss lvl it took about 15 minutes once we were on the ship. lol

And for today's report:
My fourth Team Global. Woot! My job was to play Nurse!:Nurse:
Cause I was all out of ammo. Good thing this came along. :)

 

Wow, Xander seems to be running away with it. Time to go probe and shoot some more.:)

 

Got 2 Globals tonight within 2 minutes. I was unable to get a picture of the second one, but here is Pic of my 5th (out of 6 so far) one at least.

 

:gauss: ive gotin to play some more, still not as offtin as i would like but real life has allowed me some time here in EU... but im still tying to :skillet: UP!

 

Got a bunch of secondary hunting skills up to level 1 today while hunting rifle. A society friend took me to hunt Kerberos E of Scylla. It was loads of fun. They look like a real bad mean beast, but hit like a slightly more aggressive Exarosaur.

 

Got my first Global Solo today!!!!

Unfortunatly, when I tried to pull it over to paint, it didnt want to paste. It was a Korss Gun worth 76 PED. I used the money to do repairs on armor, gun, amp, and place a couple of bids. Hopefully it will pay off. I am also more then 50% done with my discipleship now.

 

:DJust wanted to show you the Dog pile we got ourselves into. It started out as one, and then one would join, and then we killed one, and 2 would join, then 1 more, then 3.... well you get the idea...

 

Hello All.
I'm afraid it would be impossible to list all of what has happened to me in my time in the virtual world of EU, but i'll try all the same. I technically made my account a few years ago, but never actually played it until a few weeks ago. Once I became interested in the game (recently), I spent a lot of time reading up on it through guides and entropiaforums.com (I was at school with internet access anixious to play but obviously couldn't), so I actually knew more than the average newb going in. I've not succeeded in my goal of making a consistant profit so far (besides sweating), but in the process I have tried mining (IMO boring), hunting, sweating, even a bit of trading (not so good at that). I've never gotten a global but you never know..... I've met several friends through my awesome soc TAO (you should join, btw). I never needed a mentor because my soc answered all of my questions. I doubt my skills are that great, but I'm getting there (Are we not scanned again at the end of the competition? Why is everyone listing them....?).
In terms of being helpful (isn't that what every noob of the month is suppose to do :D ?), today I helped Ella Henderson find a soc terminal and helped get Fate Destiny started in the game (with sweating). Also, I know I've helped at least two other people with sweating....

Anyway, I wish everyone the best of luck. I may try to add a bit again if I can before the end of the competition.
