New Puny mission with VU 12.5.2

For those of us not overly skilled, the VU 12.5.2 came with a new Puny mission chain on Planet Calypso.

You get the missions from Ingrid J at South Swamp Camp. And as a new feature, when you complete one mission, you will be asked - in the field - if you want to accept the next mission in the chain. If this applies to all missions or just this one, I am not sure, but it is really a big help, not having to go back to the broker to accept the next mission in the chain.

Currently I have encountered these missions in the chain:

Hunt 100 Puny (bonus Aim Skill)
Hunt 500 Puny (bonus Anatomy Skill)
Hunt 1,000 Puny (bonus Combat Reflexes Skill)
Hunt 5,000 Puny (bonus )

There are plenty of punies just North of Port Atlantis (PA), on the road from PA to South Swamp Camp (SSC) and around SSC.

Mobs of Puny maturity include: Cautergus (L1), Berycled (L2), Tripudion (L3)

I am using an un-amped Sollomate Opalo (standard TT weapon) which will finish most mobs in 2-3 shots (not counting misses) and sometimes in 1 shot (esp. with Critical hits). I am not using any armour. Both in order to achieve the most economical run I can. It might be even more eco to amp the Opalo with an Omegaton A101 but I have not been able to buy one at a reasonable price yet.

Good hunting!


See You, out there!

Disciple Progression

Edited June 19th 2012:

FINALLY!!

I'm almost there! I am ready for my "graduation hunt" with my mentor! When I have completed that and my mentor has graduated me, I will post my graduation gift from Planet Calypso/Mind Ark.

I decided to take a closer look at how I progress as a Disciple with attention to the relationship between the 3 meassured skills and the progression percentage.

I will probably not be able to unlock the mechanism behind Mentor - Disciple progression but at least I can record my progression and maybe someone can use the info?

As you can see I do Hunting mostly, then Mining, then Crafting. And most of the Engineering actually comes from mining and repairing vehicles.

At the moment I am going to do more Hunting before I do more Crafting as Hunting increases my (*) Weaponry Technology skill. 

That is if I hunt with a Laser (Rifle or Pistol) I skill Laser Weaponry Technology, if I hunt with a BLP (Rifle or Pistol) I skill BLP Weaponry Technology. And the greater those skills are, the better the chance of I get of successfully crafting a weapon in that category (Laser, BLP, etc).

See You out there! ;-)
