Hey Scotty, great information for newer players! Just adding my two cents: There's also very nice planet specific loot on lower lvl mobs that might only be rarely bought - but if, it is at a premium. Like the Grindhouse Vinyls from the small 50 hp low dmg scavenger wolves on RT, or the bananas and body parts off of zombies. Vixen and their gears are a thing too ofc, but the turnover on those can feel sluggish since despite the good ROI % it's hard to cycle much on the small ones. But if you're patient and persistent it can net you a good amount over time. Guess there's other planets where this is true aswell but i mostly hunted on RT this far, so i couldn't tell for a fact
Hey, you should do a video on bankroll and cost to kill. You know you're not consistent without a large sample size (mobs killed). I have a pretty good budgeting system based on deposit size (regular deposit schedule). If you want to hear it I'll get withyou in game.
for frequency say you are using barbella z12 with armatrix 4, you do 6.5 to 13 damage costs 0.039 per shot, on average you do 9.75 damage, so it take 7.17 hits to kill 1 mature daikaba (not counting hp regen), cost to kill is 0.28, but from that 0.28, you'd get back 0.23(85%) or 0.266(95%) but not always, as you have to from what people say and i think mind ark said 1000 kills to turn 85-95% back, but since it acts like a casino, you spend 0.28 can get back 0.01 to 0.266 per kill, and tier 2 are 0.14 per item, so you have to land from rng(ish) in that ball park to get the chance for it to drop, if you hit lower you dont, so in a sense you can kill 1000 daikabas and get 0 tier 2 component, throwing more ped at a mob grants you the higher chance for it to proc the chance to roll the dice to see if you get the drop, or killing higher maturities which grants you better drop rates in a sense cause its higher cost to kill, but doesn't change the drop rate frequency , its like a casino with its drops but no one can come and steal your global like people can with slots for example, a drunk person spends 50dollars on slots and loses it all, leaves and another person comes in and hits the jackpot and rewards the person who spend 1 coin and they get the 50, no on can steal your global as its tied to you, tho i could be wrong lol
@@Vextunnel Well, I mean - Entropia wiki info is provided by players. How can we be sure that a specific item drops from _this_ maturity with _this_ frequency? MA also modifies loot tables, so frequency and maturity info can be obsolete.
@@talaniel that is very true they do change loot randomly, they recently added 3-4 enmatter to above cape cornith, which use to be (based on mining big log) only lysterium and crude oil, i noticed cause one week i did the daily for 2500 lysterium n crude oil there and spend 50 ped and only got thos, than a week after a update i was getting other enmater + lysterium with no crude oil, and the site also says adult fouls drop tier 2, but young fouls can drop it so its definitely not 100% accurate just like as scotty mentioned nova frags and trier 2 from matures, where as only cubs drop and juveniles drop nova fragments, as youngs and higher do not. some mobs have items drop from all maturities and some have their own loot, take argonuat weak and grunts they drop muscle oil and everything above them in maturity drop eye oil and no muscle. i bet alot of higher ups legit withhold info on drops cause it will mess with their markup returns, i wish they would tell us the fraction or percent they use for each frequency, like is common 1/25(5%) chance? or is very often 1/2(50%) chance? is uncommon 1/100?(1%) but even with the chance with the rng of loot return when you kill a mob can affect it even registering as the return needs to be least the amount in ped/pec of the item you are farming which is annoying , entropianexus dot com is slightly better site for the wiki with less lag, but it lacks damage amount from mobs mostly and the type they deal
@@Asertion Yeah, actually, it may be even more wise for you - you will get defensive skills (evade etc.) and get hit less thanks to that, but I get it that it may be discouraging to "swunt" as it is called if you die too often.
Good game etc but do streamers still sell the view of..oh you soend so mu h sell so much you make so much return lol ...look return only works on long term investment that will gradually make more over time...entropia isnt that time of investment...you spend 100 ped in ammo sell 80 in markup you still lost 20 ...

Pinned, a good addition to the information bro :)
another great video!
Great video Scotty!
Thanks for the tips, Scotty.

A solid idea mate!
Entropia wiki is a great source, I just wonder how reliable that "Frequency" and "Maturity" info is :-)

Do you need to have the full quantity for the buy orders ? or can you partially fullfill it?
Brilliant question, no you dont need to have the full order.
finally, maybe i wont have to sweat for 3 days just to get a day or two worth of ammo :D
A tip for you kind sir. Get atleast 1 pull of sweat from a mob your hunting. It will help to of set costs even more.
@@ScottyC93Official i try but i keep dying during the sweating. probably because i just got the game
