Soon the real hunting log will get started

The hunts I already posted was logged in a bit too detailed format - or... this was of course good to have a lot of details, however the process of logging a hunt took too long time, and the mu I used was monthly, even if it was something like 100,40% - and chances are that stuff like this is just going to be tt food when I need the ped.

Therefore I decided to use another format where I don't calculate any MU on anything before I actually sell it at a MU. When I sell it I will add the MU value to the next hunting log entry.

The new log format will look like:

Hunt no. x
Mob hunted:                  x
(L) items tt:                    x (before hunt) => y (after hunt)

Equipment:                     handgun + amp, rifle + amp, armor, fap

Notes:                             ie. "100 ped global of oil and iron", "a few ~25 ped's"

Cost
Repairs:                         x
Ammo:                            x
Decay:                            x (decent mu estimate of (L) items * total decay)

Total cost:                      x

MU:                               "Nothing sold" / "x sold with y ped MU"
Total loot:                      x (tt + MU sold)

Total
This run:                        x tt / y tt + MU
All runs:                         x tt / y tt + MU

Hunting before april 25

Okay - so I used to be hunting a lot of drones back before my little break. So as I went back to the game I wanted to give these a try again. Most of the time I hunted them they used to give at least decent results - meaning a few hunts that ended in profit, and those who ended in a loss almost always led to a 90% return or so after MU was added. The good thing about the drones is of course the Gazz they drop.

Well - I gave them a try again... 3 hunts with 190 ped ammo, 160 ped ammo and 100 ped ammo. This was just some quick hunts to get back in the game - and they will not be included in my more organised hunting log.

On them I used HL6 (L) + A103, LR41(L) + A104, Shogun armor and T1 / SK-20 (L).

The results: (in decay I always include the average MU on the (L) items I use)

Hunt 1:
Total cost             267.58 ped                     (190 ammo, 40.68 decay, 36.90 repairs)
Total loot             174.19 ped                     (157.30 tt, 16.89 mu)
Result                 -  93.39 ped                     (58.79% return tt, 65.10% return tt + mu)

Hunt 2: 
Total cost             221.45 ped                     (160 ammo, 34.36 decay, 27.09 repairs)
Total loot             144.47 ped                     (132.19 tt, 12.28 mu)
Result                 -  76.98 ped                     (59.69% return tt, 65.24% return tt + mu)

Hunt 3: 
Total cost             139.71 ped                     (100 ammo, 22.18 decay, 17.53 repairs)
Total loot               98.47 ped                     (89.24 tt, 9.23 mu)
Result                 -  41.24 ped                     (63.89% return tt, 70.48% return tt + mu)

Back to Entropia Universe

Hello there,
I'm Verimal Verii Ley.. or that's the name of my avatar in the Entropia Universe.

I joined the universe in december 2009. In about august 2010 I went on a break from the game - I needed som money, and sold a lot of my stuff and pulled out some. As of april 2011 however I'm back in the game again and did a good deposit to get going.

This blog will be about my EU life... mostly I think it will contain hunting and mining logs.

Any suggestions - feel free to tell me :)

Cheers,
Verii
