Group Sweating in Limnadian District

One of the good ways of sweating, is sweating in a group. That way you can sweat bigger and more dangerous mobs, that has more sweat without getting killed (as often).

One of the better Sweating spots on Planet Calypso is Limnadian District, S - SW of the Teleporter.  Here's a picture of me sweating there today:

See You out there! ;-)

Sweating trip to South and North Swamp Camp

I would like to take you on a sweating trip on Planet Calypso to South and North Sweat Camp just East and North-East of Port Atlantis.

Let's start at Port Atlantis Marina "New Arrivals" Teleporter (TP). Here's a picture of me in front of it:

From here navigate to the North-East corner of Port Atlantis, past the Port Atlantis Mall:

Follow the road East, here you will encounter Level 1 and 2 mobs like L1 Caudatergus Puny and L2 Berycled Puny:

Continue following the road when it bends, going north until the road splits like this:

Take the right hand side road going down and you are at South Swamp Camp (here I got attacked by a Berycled Puny, hence the orange 3.0 in the right hand bottom corner):


Talk to the Mission Broker, he has a few missions for you, that will take you around both South and North Swamp Camp:

Have a nice trip to the South and North Swamp Camps!


See you soon, out there ;-)

I am broke! ....

I guess this was coming ....   I am now down to 0.03 PED ... Now it's time to do some serious sweating on Planet Calypso!

One way of gathering fund is sweating mobs (creatures) for Vibrant Sweat. An advanced way is Swunting; Sweating and Hunting.

How to Swunt:
You can swunt in a group or alone. Which is best depends on the mob. If you can deal with the mob yourself, you get a better percentage of the sweat and loot. But when in a group, the bigger the group, the bigger the mob and thus more sweat and better loot. In general it is better to be in a group, in my view.

Anyway, back to swunting. You sweat the mob until you get the message "you cannot gather anymore sweat from this creature". When in a group or with other people there, it is then polite to annouce that the mob is "dry". Then you can kill the mob with your weapon and loot it. That is the hunting part of swunting.

I hope that helps ;-)


Next time I write, I will post a message about swunting close to Port Atlantis.


See you out there ;-)

TP run :-)

I ran into a guy yesterday (name withheld as I haven't asked permission to publish it, yet), called Sloe, who was so kind to give me a lift to several teleports (TP) here on Planet Calypso. He was the nicest guy and I owe him a lot of thanks.

The main goal (for me, atleast) was to get to Twin Peaks, as it seems to be the centre of trade. But he was patient enough to take me to several other places like the teleport in Jason Centre. We also went to TPs in Boreas, Fort Troy, Osere and Athena Space Port, where i am now. I do not know much about these places, but I will in the near future :-)

I now have to explore these new areas for what they can offer in hunting, mining and missions/quests. Especially Twin Peaks needs a closer look for it's trade possibilities on top of the mining and hunting.

See You soon! ;-)

Mining trip to Atlas Haven

Now I want to start doing some serious mining on Planet Calypso, but I do not have the PEDs to do it.

So I decided to cash in on my previous diggings, because I found someone that was interested in my Oil. I sold that at a little higher price than TT value but less than the Market Value, but I needed the money, so I went for it.

I also decided to sell off the ore/matter finders I had, a Finder F-101 that I had constructed myself and a Ziplex Z-1 Seeker that I had in my personal storage. The reasoning for selling these items was that I expected to do better with a lot of probing using the newbie Genesis Rookie Finder (L), using only 2 Survey Probes per probing for ore and 1 probe per probing for energy matter than the F-101 and Z-1 that uses 10 times the amount.

So I bought 200 Survey Probes (I had 4 instock from completing the mining quest outside Port Atlantis (PA) for Mr. Hornby) and a the newbie finder Genesis Rookie Finder (L) and set off for the PA Teleport (TP) and went to Atlas Haven (AH).

I only did probes just around Atlas Haven (AH) as there was a lot of mobs out of my league (levels L6-L9), with my lack of protection and only an un-amplified Sollomate Opallo. But I did find a 2 deposits, one oil deposit and one Lysterium Stone deposit. They were Minimal (I) and Tiny (II).

During one of the breaks - I was teleported back to the Revival Terminal :-( - I did a little manufacturing, producing 2 Combustors. A  Combustor is one of the parts for vehicles.

I probably should not have done that, but I was curious to the process and in the process the blueprint quality rose to 1.4 :-) I don't know exactly what that will do for me, but I guess it will improve my chance of success and the condition of my manufacturing of Combustors in the future :-)

For now I think I will stick to the production of the F-101 Finder to improve my skills and maybe, just maybe I will get lucky and get some good condition F-101's to auction off :-)

See You out there! ;-)

Oil for sale

Hi all @ Planet Calypso!

I have some (refined) Oil for sale, 292 at the moment. I do not have a vehicle (yet) so my use for Oil is quite limited. Please feel free to contact me! I am usually quite close to Port Atlantis.

See You out there!
