Trading and manufacturing

Log entry for the 18th of October 2015

Monday, I’m on Arkadia and foolishly decide to try my luck, I seem to be particularly unfortunate on Arkadia and today’s Huon hunt was no exception as it gave a return marginally over 50%, with a loss of 235 PED, not good at all. I was planning to leave Arkadia temporarily anyway but due to this loss I was able to do so in disgust. I travelled to Crystal Palace and there amalgamated my loot before Teleporting to Chug’s Hideout on the surface. Here I purchased Lysterium and Piles of Garnets in order to complete the list of components required to tier the Igni up to 1. The upgrade process was painless.

Tuesday, I purchased Root Acid and Gazurdite ingots and proceeded to manufacture some RK-20s, quite a bad run, it produced only 8 units from 43 attempts. I also manufactured 76 PED of Welding Wire.

Thursday, I have decided to use the Dehera Immolation Sword and to this end repaired it. I then purchased an RK-5 BP and went to hunt the Rextelum, go figure! I did quite well with a loss of just 8 PED and reached 16650/30000 for The Supreme Rextelum Slayer mission. I purchased some Sweat and made more Welding Wire until I ran out of Alternative Ingots at which point I made 19 RK-5s from 56 attempts. I began placing my loots on Auction, such a ball ache.

Friday, I purchase extra Alternative and Ospra ingots and made a shed load more Welding Wire. Put more stuff on auction, some was bought.

Saturday, with the Igni upgraded to tier 1 I decided to make use of the slot and purchased a couple of weapon economy enhancers before trying my luck with the Rextelum. I used over 400 PED of ammo and both the newly purchased enhancers in order to discover that my luck was poor, in this instance economy enhancers were very not economic. I purchased the components necessary to upgrade my viceroy shin guards to tier 3.2 (clearly they were ready sometime ago). Later it was Space Skilling Saturday, after which Nocturaline and Myself descend to the surface of Arkadia where I purchase and repair a key 10 with the hope of the Sleepyheads doing this Sunday. That did not work out and we had to postpone until Monday.

This week I managed to lose about 550 PED and experienced a return of 66%.

Chitin, Tentacles & Chitin

Log entry for 5th of July 2015

Monday, chitin, I pay a visit to one of my many old adversaries the Rextelum, they were not happy to see me and displayed their displeasure with some very poor loot. I did do particularly badly here. After, I purchased some sweat and proceeded to manufacture some welding wire, this went quite well, after using 3k of sweat I had produced over 32 PED of welding wire with a TT loss of only 2.5 PED from the components used.

Saturday, tentacles, Space Skilling Saturday with some pirate shenanigans at the start.

Sunday,  chitin, I’m back on Crystal Palace simply because I can’t be bothered to return to the surface, I visit the Kreltin in Dome 2 for another loss although this one is reasonable. I manage a single global which was the difference maker.

This week’s results – 332 PED with a return of just 66%, not good, not good, not good.

Back to the Home World

Log entry for 28th of June 2015

Another slow week for me.

Monday, I revisited the Huon. these really have become quite stingy and gave a very poor return, I decided to leave Arkadia, at least that’s what it says in my notes, certainly I did nothing more until.

Saturday, Space Skilling Saturday took place in Arkadian Space so technically I’m still at Arkadia.

Sunday, Crystal Palace, I decide to take on the Krelitin, that mission (the 5k I think) won’t finish its self. The results were about average and if I recall correctly this was completed during a spit session. I TT’d to the surface of Calypso and began making Welding Wire only to run out of Sweat after not very long, I toured likely TPs looking for a seller but found none.

Considering I did so little I did manage to lose just over 300PED this week with a return of 71%.

A little more activity perhaps

Log entry for the 22nd of February 2015.

Monday, my week begins in space, as I’m here I decide to assist in controlling the number of Cosmic Horrors in the Calypso training area, we all have to do our bit, imagine space if we did not, just one big mass of writhing tentacles, you would need more than warp drive to get through that. Later I descend to the Calypso surface and tried my hand at fight club, I am killed by a critical hit in round 4 but return to finish the trial. I also meet Tiger, PBG and Lucky there, Soc. members who it’s nice to see after a long absence.

Thursday, I am not there but PBG hits a very nice mining HOF on FOMA, nearly 26k of iron stone. To my knowledge this is the biggest HOF any in the Soc. have had.

Friday, I visit my old adversaries the Rextelum, both East of Saba Camp and on the island in 2 separate hunts, I do not do too badly and finish with 15927/30000 points in the Supreme Rextelum Slayer iron challenge, it is slow going but I will get there. I also spend some time making some welding wire, this has never been profitable but I have lots of materials to make these and it can’t be much more expensive than just buying the wire. Many auctions are placed for my collection of stackables, I really must auction the collection of items I have but not today.

Saturday, I log in for Space Skilling Saturday and find that many auctions have already sold.

Sunday, a Warp Transport for Drop Zone, lots of messing about at Next Island to get one of their members there before I Warp back to Calypso for the first Soc. event we have had in years, this was a Beacon Mission, not a big one but big enough, Tiger had arranged it, it was attended by him, PBG, Lucky and myself who provided the Beacon, it had been in store for years, sadly Wolta could not make it. Tiger is intending to run more events, maybe it will be a return to the old days, I hope so. We all did quite well out of the mission once MU was taken into account. After I made a little more welding wire before beginning my Sub-warp journey back to Next Island. Ending my week as it started aboard Pathfinder XXXI.
