Mornin all.

Before I start work today I want to talk about Endor last night. I think in future we need to ensure that we all have at least one Energy weapon and a Blast/heat or Acid as backup. The resists on those critters was, frankly, Fucking stupid.

I mean a big fuckin pony with 100% Heat resist on a predominantly temperate planet. I would expect lizards on tattoine to have that sort of protection - there's no sense to a fuckin pony living in a wet climate having that sort of resist.

As for those fuckin mites - wtf were they on when the designed them? Beetles that u can't fuckin see that can wtf pwn just about anything.

I think Endor needs to wait until we have better items or at least a good supply of stim c's and high level spice drugs.

Hunting.

#######

We spend toooooooooo long getting organised imo. We lost over an hour getting to Endor and getting started on missions. I always sound like a grumpy chelsea fan when I talk about this sort of stuff but Its frustrating when I know I have to log by around 11pm cos I am knackered to lose an hour and a half from the playtime standing waiting for people to get organised.


Can I suggest that we decide what we're going to do during the dead period? Like Now?

Tuesday Night - Who's about - Planet? Missions/ Drop Hunt?

I personally think we should get a group of us tonight and hit missions on either Lok or another of the intermediate planets. I will have about 3-4 hours playtime from 8pm so I need to maximise the playtime from there on I am happy to go hunt anywhere as long as I have some company - if I am going solo tongiht I am off to naboo

Simon

i like your style...


but im out tonight.

As I am GMT +1 I also don't like the long "getting organized" periods. By the time we are finally organized I can do one or two missions and it's bedtime for me.

So tonight 8pm GMT on Lok? And where the hell do I get a pistol that does acid damage?

Luke

Its a DX2 pistol that you get, but cannot be used until you're level 1 pistollier. I am going to try and find a pistollier trainer on corellia when I get back there and get trained

Simon

I know of a Pistol Trainer in Mos Eisley behind the Cantina. That's where I got trained. I don't know where he is on Corellia.

What's a level 1 Pistoleer? A Novice? I'm a pure novice (not yet trained in one of the sub-skills above novice, still need 15k for Markmanship 1) but I think I have my DX2 certificate. I've been looking around for that gun but haven't found one sofar.

Luke

u get DX2 certification when u get Novice Pistoleer


but they sell like hot cakes

That was fun on Lok. Got about 150k Pistol XP and 1/10th of that in combat XP. How am I ever gonna fill that Combat XP tree?
And the Lokian leather hide is a nice bonus also. Isn't it a saying "don't sell the bear before you shoot it"? Well in The Netherlands we say "don't sell the hide before you've got it". That doesn't seem necessary on Lok because I already made a deal for 4k units of leather before we actually had it .

Luke

HI luke!

Yeah I thought that last night went MUCH better. We all got DX2 pistols - I have kir's on me at the moment.

I reckon I got around 30k pistol xp and around 8k Med xp alone.

I also got a nice new contact who has promised to let me know when he makes enhanced dx2's and also to give me a discount for all the business sent his way.

So far 3 of my resource units have sold and I haven't put the 1k of 742 qual leathery hide on the market yet. That should be another 6k of income to my account - not bad

I think I will buy some power generators next and stick em somewhere close to bestine where I can sell the power easily

Simon

Yeah, I was thinking about power generators also. One thing I keep asking myself is this: does your power generator (or any other structure you own) get a rebel sign when you go overt or have a TEF? I sometimes see power generators or other structures with an Imperial or Rebel sign.

If that is true and you have a power generator close to Bestine it's bound to be destroyed soon by opposing players. If they can be destroyed at all, I don't know about that.

And about those DX2 pistols. Yeah, they're very nice. But always do a /ex on the MOB. I don't remember anymore which but one species we met had 100% acid resistance so you have to switch guns!!
