Skill Bonus Weekend Starting now and running until Monday morning the frequency and maximum strength of the automatic triggered skill bonuses have been boosted significantly. Enjoy the skill bonus weekend! Source
I will not. My skills are high enough. I don't have funds to sponsor a dieing game. ... oh wait ... probably the game will survive ... I meant the spirit. Sorry.
It is on the Entropia Universe site there is no mention of any planet either, so it should be universe wide,
Shooting non-stop for 5 hours didn't trigger any skill boost. On Calypso. I thought it would be really "boosted significantly".
Each of my team got one in the few hrs I played last night. That is significantly more than the once a week or so I had been experiencing.(went to bed early with a cold) 5min boost of 30% really isnt that exciting though. (Boosts come in a range of 0-200% and I think 0-20min?)
I got one or two 10 mins boosts in the past. Without SkillBoostWeekend. Meens nothing to me. No significant more skills. So ... forget it.
Alas ... I am out it seems. EU has lost all it's sex appeal for me ... it became really stupid. I was fixed in skilling since my very first days in 2005. Since I have to deal with folks like Spawn and this crazy OZtwo guy and PP like Toulan I've lost all my trust in this game. See you folks at Elder Scrolls Online within 6 weeks ;-) P.S. Me and Kristin sell some really nice items at auction btw. We will sell nice apartments as well. We will keep the penthouse at Monria. So watch auction for the finest Medusa's Head apartment #12 North Wing and a really nice Chalet at Minopolis #2. We decided to do this as a result of this Skill-Boost-Offer. So it's on topic I think.
No need to leave the game, just take a break and come back when you feel rested and want to give it a try again. Also I really liked your modeling project and would like to see more of it.
So that was my skill bonus weekend, ~10 hours net skilling time, exactly 0 skill boosts. No idea how big the chance is to get skill boosts regularly, no idea how "significantly" it was increased now, but imo skill boosts are too rare, too short, and mostly too week. Make them 10 to 60 minutes and 50-200% strength, and slightly increase the probability to get over time you play without one (everything based on pure game of chance is nothing for the non-gamblers). In the past we had skill bonus weekends with double or even triple the skills all around the clock...
Yeah I only got 3-4 for the weekend which was pretty low imo for what they really give you. That should really be the normal rate and 'increased rates' should be one+ an hour.
Yeah I only got 2 good skill boosts 96% for 8 min in hunting and 102% in crafting for 4 mins..but the rest all sucked if any..and I think I got like 2 others that were normal. At the I just marked it up as skill bonus day on Friday. :)
OMG! I always say wrong words. Folks like the one above always read: Ulla leaves the game. Be ensured man, two days ago I promised Narfi to participate his kickass team "Ultimate EntropiaTransport.com" as best as I can. But I've lost the basic interest in EU I once had in PE.
