1 july 2009 : Atrox and Longu globals

Teranoz — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 21:04:40 +0000

I started doing Atrox at the LA N of Rei.
It started nice, got a 42 ped at 17:18 MA time and 18 Ped at 17:20 but than the loot started to get a lot worse.
So I decided to switch to Ambu at Nea. After trying a few of them I saw they were also not dropping good.
Suddenly I saw a global of skippy on drones. So I tried some of those. They were really horrible.
Arwen told me he might been skilling on them and after asking him it turned out he was skilling strength with melee weapons on drones.
So I went back to see if the trox were better. No changes at all. So I went a bit more South to the Longu LA.
There I got a global of 111 PED on a longu (no special items). The rest was also not good and I went back to the TP.
I sold my loot and started on a new hunt for Atrox. Now I was more successfull. I got a global of 99 PED on an Atrox.

All hunts together today were just a bit above break even, so I could say the hunt was good.

: Drone generation 01 global

Because the mining conditions have been bad on CND lataly I have been doing small drones last few days on the planet.
After some hunts where I did not bad I finally got a nice global of 56 PED
On one of those hunts I also had an almost global of like 49 PED or so.

I did an enmatter run that day but had my tools in storage. So I got a tt driller and a tt finder and started to do some enmatter S of Port Atlantis. Result : 120% return on 50 PED probes, a hitrate of 31% and a IX oil as largest find.

CND 5 and 6 june 2009

Teranoz — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 08:56:43 +0000

Again with OF-105 and OA-103

Result : 9 globals and a (small) HOF

I made it to #28 in Entropia Tracker already for mining last 30 days.

Globals on CND june 3 2009

Teranoz — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 14:30:28 +0000

At the moment I am doing a lot of ore mining on CND

Tools I use :

OF-105 with OA-103 amp.

I have been active on CND now for a few weeks and I recently hit my first XXI
It was Lysterium, so I needed to take some time to digg all out; about 1.5 hours with a eMINE_OE_(L)
I bought a new one before going up again and got that XXI on the second trip.
After finishing all trips I went back to the planet to sell my stuff and buy new amps.
Now I am back up again and I guess the excevator will be dead within 1 or 2 trips

Miningrun #38 : 2 jun 2008

Teranoz — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 16:27:17 +0000

Melchi Water 21.12
Crude Oil 18.98
Binary Fluid 0.75
Alicenies Liquid 1.25

Total 42.10 PED

Started W of Nymph went to the West and results were fair.
Later the hitratio went worse and I did a few tp jumps North.
Got attacked by atraxes all the time so went further North but the results did not get good enough anymore.

Put 236 Peds of oil in auction and at the time writing there is already a bid on it, but not sold yet.

Results after 38 runs : -90.26 PED.

For a major part due to all those atrax that were not so nice to me and giving me only 9 PED return after spending 30 Peds on ammo and decay.

Mining trip #36 and #37

Teranoz — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 18:10:24 +0000

Run 31 may 2008 :
Crude Oil 6.47
Ferrum Nuts 1.00
Magerian 0.50
Melchi 10.28
GM 1.88
Alic 0.55
Acid root 1.60

Crude oil 107.86
GM 2.82
binary 2.25
Angelic 0.50
Alic 4.60
Melchi 3.68

Total 121.71

Used my tp chip, landed, dropped the first probe and bingo ! 51 PED oil global
Trip 36 was pretty bad as the results show, but #37 made that up a lot.
Besides that XIII oil I also found a XII oil and IV Binary.
Binary Fluid is still going up in the market, so its almost time to sell it.
But… I am not planning on selling binary less that 1000%, so I need a bit more patience.

At least my supply of oil will get me some PEDs for more probes.

Results after 37 mining trips : -57.09 PED
Thats after spending 3919.47 PED and return of 3862.38

Thats 98.5 % return including markup.

Mining trip #35

Teranoz — Sat, 31 May 2008 19:38:07 +0000

I went just 1 tp jump of Hadesheim.
the hit rate was extreme; after 20 probes I had 10 hits and it just kept on that way in that area.
But it cannot go forever that way. After a while I started to get less hits and I decided to take a jump to the N.
There I managed to get 2 times a IX oil within less than 100 m, so the trip was very good on the end.

Results :
Crude Oil 52.51
Typonolic 9.60
GM 8.93
Lyta 3.04

Tot 74.08

Decay from miningtools : 4.60
Cost hunting : 11 PED
Return Hunting : 4.48

Sold my Megan and Handisidan for 121 % and 1878 % so thats about 38 Ped in markup extra from selling.

This trip brings my total profit on -61.24 PED, so 54.88 PED less than yesterday.

Mining trip 29 may 2008

Teranoz — Fri, 30 May 2008 18:39:33 +0000

Trip #34 : 100 probes (50 PED)

Growth Molecules 7.99 PED
Binary Fluid 1.50 PED
Alicenies Liquid 3.70 PED
Crude Oil 7.33 PED
Melchi Water 1.74 PED
Garcen Grease 4.20
Hansidian Rock 2.14 PED

Total tt value : 28.60 PED
But with a markup of more than 1500% for hansidian only its almost breaking even for mining

cost armour/guns/ammo : 31.82 PED
Return : 8.13 PED

Peds due to defending myself : -23.69 PED

I sold some ores on the auction and made a net. profit of 68.40 PED (including auction fees)

This brings the total score on -116.12 PED, so thats 8.41 PED less than yesterday.

Mining trip 28 may 2008

Teranoz — Thu, 29 May 2008 17:07:38 +0000

I am back to mining again after the ecohunts experiment.
I started some enmatter trips, switched to ores and now back to enmatter again.
I keep every balancing in an excel sheet to see exactly where I profit and where I loose.
My main thing is the mining business, so I try to avoid the mobs as much as possible.
I started this range of trips at april 20 starting with enmatter and have now done trip #33 using a Tik500 and the MD-204(L) for big finds and the tt extractor for the smaller finds (big small in number of pulls) to minimize my decay as much as possible.

Interesting finds : X oil and IV Devil’s Tail

Yesterday I started with 100 probes (50 ped) and got 59.02 PED of enmatters back together with some fruits and dung. After and before the trip I put some ores on the auction.

Results #33 :

Probes : 50
Decay mining gear : 3.84
Cost ammo/armour/guns decay : 26.88
Auction fee : 8.19 PED
Cost total : 88.91 PED

Mining return : 59.02 PED
Hunting return : 10.30 PED
Auction profit : 34.78 PED
Total return : 104.10 PED

Difference : + 15.19 PED

This brings the total for 33 trips on
-193.43 PED for hunting (tt value)
-473.47 PED for mining (tt value)
+640.49 PED from auction (mainly ores and enmatters)

All together -124.53 PED netto after spending 3612.89 PED
