Update Twin Peaks and Next Island

Hey all, Just wanted to let you know Twin Peaks and Next Island are apparently the best places currently to sell sweat. Apparently the current sell price is 1.5 - 2 PED per 1000 units in Twin Peaks while next island is in the 2 - 2.5 PED range. There has been a large drop off in sweaters in Port Atlantis due to the robots that have replaced the combibo and other natural mobs outside the city. Most people have gone to Calypso Gateway or to the south east swamps of Port Atlantis to sweat/ swunt now. I highly recommend Calypso Gateway just because it has a great assortment of mobs that are low levels In other news, I've been chipping away more sweat and have discovered a few mobs that have given me 20 units instead of the usual 10. Not sure if this is a new thing or not but it is definitely something to look into. I'll update my skills and inventory in the next post. Good luck sweating :)

Back to Port Atlantis Sweating

After a good bout of walking for stones and fruits I came up empty handed. I decided to head back to Atlas Haven and then used a teleporter to Port Atlantis. I spent a good hour or so sweating and killing low level mobs and made some good skills and some decent money from it. I managed to loot .85 PED worth by only killing a few creatures with my severely damaged Enblade.

I managed to improve my strength and alertness; two things not that easily to increase.

Anyways here are my updated stats. Enjoy!

Walking for stones, fruit, and or dung

=================
TIPS
* Set your character to walk by opening the option box. You will not find anything if you are in run mode.
* Walk through areas that are away from teleporters.
* In Port Atlantis walk outside of the limits in order to find items.
* Be patient!
=================

I've spent a decent amount of time recently walking throughout Planet Calypso. Sure the sights are nice but my main goal isn't to find a hidden spot within Calypso. Today I'm looking for stones, fruit, or dung. Yes, dung. Why you ask?

Well, when you set your character in walk mode you are able to easily see items located on the ground such as those mentioned above. Items on the ground can be sold for trade or auction for very good prices. Better yet, finding them takes absolutely no investment money wise. Time wise, however, is a much different story.

On the many forums in the Planet Calypso community there are many stories of people finding large deposits of stones on the ground. So, I decided to take a little break from sweating and hunting to try my luck at "walking". Despite nearly an hour of walking my trip came up pretty empty handed although I did find some good locations for future mining and walking trips. I'm hoping that my luck changes and I will strike it rich in some fruit. At the very least I will gain a few skills from dying from high level creatures.

That's all for now (stat updates next time)

Huntin' and Sweatin in the NW Port Atlantis corner

I've continued to invest some more time and energy into this dual operation of sweating and hunting low level mobs around Port Atlantis. So far I've managed some small results but today I was not quite as profitable as the last excursion. I managed to increase my sweat inventory to 824 which is slowly creeping towards the all important 1000 units. Typically people buy sweat in large 1000+ increments due to sweats low sell price (especially lately) and the always potent supply of sweat.

Anyways, I recently auctioned some Nova Fragments which I've been slowly collecting but so far they haven't sold. I spent 2.30 to repair my Castorian Combat Enblade-A but I didn't net nearly that much in loot.

I did however gain a new rank in athletics which I am happy about! Looks like I'm still a long ways off from my goal however.

Dabbling can be dangerous

Hey all!

I've recently spent a good amount of time on Planet Calypso continuing my quest to try and profit in Planet Calypso. Slowly I've been acquiring skills and getting more efficient at things like sweating and hunting. Most of my time has been spent recently to the North West of Port Atlantis, the starting point within the game.

Although I've been playing for a while I've learned it takes quite a considerable amount of time to gain the skills needed in order to challenge the larger mobs. So lately I've been hunting L1-L3 mobs after sweating them dry. The lower level mobs only have a maximum of 10 sweat a piece. By sweating mobs dry and then killing them off you are able to do two things at once to gain PED.

I lucked out today when I killed a dry Bereclyde that had 1.71 PED worth of loot inside. Quite the find (although others are well known for finding more). Hopefully with some hard work and dedication I can work my way up the levels and kill the higher level mobs sooner than later.

I made the mistake of dabbling in mining and wasted around 10 PED to only make back 3.5. Definitely not an ideal return. Luckily my hunting remained profitable!

Anyways, here are the updated stats:

Back in the Swing of Things

Hey all,

It's been a while since I posted last and I figured I would let you all know I am still going at it. I've had a little bit of trouble getting Planet Calypso to load but lately it has been loading normally again. I ended up spending a bit of my money over the past few weeks on a new blade that I've been using while sweating on the western side of Port Atlantis. This has helped me gain a bit of loot money although my repairs are costing me quite a bit. Its a bit hard to earn cash while sweating but I've found the L1 mobs tend to be unable to kill me before I can drain them of sweat. Hopefully the L2 Mobs will be next! Here's my stats updates
