Swoop Racing 2/27/2018

• Benni: Angler 1=0
• Lifa: Thune 1=0
• Oshorym: Slice Hound 3=0
• Aerys: Bolle Bol 3=0

No Booms today, so far. I did get in some krayting in the morning, when my work plans fell through; looted a Flawless Ancient Pearl off the first Ancient I killed. Made sure to deliver it to my guildie's vendor before I logged Aerys off to run the processors. I do have pretty solid luck on those loots, actually, and I love being able to help out guildies!

There is an event on Endor today: Love Fest speeder race. I need to ask Ash if BARC's count.

And they don't. 

Had a grand time anyway: ran the race on Benni, then ran it again using her Light-Bending Podracer, and creamed the record. Didn't matter for the event, but felt amazing nonetheless. afterwards Kyoopid showed up so we got that badge too. Super cool.

After the event I didn't feel like going back to the grind, so I ran Benni and Aerys off to Tat to try the Mos Espa track. Did not get the record, but it was fun. After that I grabbed Aerys' Tat exploration badges, including Fort Tusken. Then friends showed up and we did some in person RP gaming.

Logged back in before bed, flipped incubators and processors, but had not managed to throw in any more 20s, even though I had the enzymes, so I opted to spend the funds and go buy some finished 20s so I could at least finish the current sessions.

Was watching a show with the roomies, so I puttered around with some deco in the meantime: got the cantina sort of started, and found the missing back of modifier pieces for the next BM suit. Glad I found them eventually, but man I am bad at keeping track of what is where.

Vendor in Sin City that had the lowest price also had a bag of 50 7+ raw hydros, and it only took me a minute to opt in: that is 400k per; and at a rate of maybe 15 processable an hour, that saves me about 5 hours of solo, in-game time: so very much worth the price, especially because I actually had the cash, since pet sales have been good lately.

• Oshorym: Flit 1=0
• Lifa: Thune 2=0
• Benni: Angler 2=0 Scrubbed.
• Aerys: Voritor 1=BOOM! (Critical Hit)

Nine 20s in stock and two more in construction, and those 50 hydros should make me at least 15-18 more. And I am off to bed. 

Heroic Return 2/26/2018

Oh man that was a great evening!

So logged on this evening to switch out the processors and flip the incubators, and caught a guild run on the Heroics just getting started. I managed to snag a spot in the group for TK, and am now in the guild city to buff up and meet up with the gang in Mos Espa. OMG, I am so excite! It's been seven years since I ran a heroic...

Yay, TK! Weirdly my favourite Heroic, as I recall them. Lots of running around and murdering Tuskens, and tagging folks with heals. I actually got to do the majority of the sending the citizens to where they could be useful, as for some reason of other (bugly, much), almost all of them were in the Lone House.

We lost four citizens but I sorta found my rhythm, so that was good. I have to say though, I am kinda nerved about the next one though. IDS. I died a LOT on the ISD, back in the day.

Running around the gunboat like a curious chicken at the moment. I had wanted to find the cockpit and found all these other rooms instead. Weird. And then there's all these explosions as the ship is getting the crap shot out of it!

And then I got lost, and one of the party had to come back and show me where they all went. I drew aggro at the wrong places, but only died the once, which I will count a win, on top of the win of the actual successful completion.

Afterwards I palled around with my new guildies, grabbed some stuff one of the ladies needed for her vendor, and ran back to the Naboo city to drop them off, whereupon Rok'n had to show me some speeder I had never seen before, and we talked about goofy fun events and just all the fun and I took screenies and ran around with them playing with pets.

I am so very happy I have a good group to run with again. I missed this.

Such a good night.

Numbers Nerd 2/26/2018

/RAWR!

• Aerys: Bolle Bol 1=0
• Benni: Swirl Prong 2=0
• Lifa: Varactyl 2=0
• Oshorym: Slice Hound 1=0

I am taking Osho iso shopping, since we are really low on many colours. One of the people in Chill in game chat was asking where folks farmed their enzymes, and I was right there with her when Kalley answered "The Bazaar". 

Bazaar: 1 @ 100k

Corellia: 2 @ 100k 

Tat: 1 @ 75 k, 2 @ 200k, 2 @ 250k, 50 @300k

Naboo: 2 @ 100k, 1 @ 150k, 2 @250k, (and then I got distracted by a vendor selling all the various colours of flower bouquets from all the years of the Ewok Festival of love and I was massively inspired to do up flower gardens and a lush bedroom for Aerys, and... I literally filled my inventory with flowers. LOL I might be a girl. Had to run home again and store everything I bought. Good thing I emptied the lab of some of its DNA and enzyme overstock, so there is more room for DECO STORAGE. I swear to gawd, my ADD is in highgear today!)

Rori: 2@26,666, 3@46,666, 6@14,6666, and 1@396,666

Lok: whoops, forgot, I bought them out the day before yesterday...

So total spent: 18,594,922. Total bought: 75 Average Price: 247,933. |So 250k is about what I should be paying for them. Other maths to consider: it takes 3 of those top grade enzymes per capped beast egg, so that's 750k in the cost of each beast.

Consumables: Extractors are 4,666 a use, it takes 7.5 uses minimum to make 1 pet: that's 35k per egg; Trays are 130k cpu, it takes 4 per pet  : that's  520 k per egg;

Cans are 120k cpu; it takes 15 per pet; that's 1.8 mill per egg;

Capsules are 100k cpu; it takes 3 per pet, that's 300k per egg;

Lyase average 500k cpu; it takes 3 per pet, that's 1.5 mill per egg;

Top Isos average 250k cpu, it takes 3 per pet, that's 750k per egg;

Bottom isos average 50k cpu; it takes 3 per pet, that's 150k per egg;

And Geothermal is 10 cpu, it takes 7500 units per egg, that's 75k per egg.

So total average costs, ignoring investment in machinery and BM modifiers (which is significant), and that there is bottlenecking of elements and processes: it costs 5, 095, 000 to produce one capped beast.

That means anyone selling at 6 mill or less is likely taking a loss, or crafting all their own consumables, and foraging their own Lyases. That's really the only way to drop the price significantly. My price at 9 mill is about as low as I want to go unless the prices on Canisters and Lyases drops significantly. 

It is funny that I was never that much of a maths nerd before this damned game came along, and now I absolutely love wiggling around with the numbers. No math teacher I ever had could have persuaded me that statistical analysis would become a hobby of mine. 

Okay, off to have some teeny bit of fun. I need more hydros! Rawr!

And...

• Lifa: Varactyl 3=0
• Benni: Swirl Prong 3=BOOM (Strikethrough)
• Oshorym: 

GUILDED! 2/25/2018

• Benni: Kliknik 1=0
• Lifa: Gulginaw 1=0
• Oshorym: Zucca Boar 1-BOOM (Evasion Rating) 19.02 Mutagen
• Aerys: Chuba 2=0

Ran off to buy elements since I have not managed to go for a hunt yet. I jinx myself, and I know I do it. Later today, if I get my housework done.

• Lifa: Gulginaw 2=0
• Benni: Kliknik 2=0
• Oshorym: Zucca Boar 2=0

Spent some time doing a bit of market analysis. I need to pump out some eggs and try and have loaded vendors for Easter weekend, since that is the next big break for folks. Definitely sales slowed down after Christmas holidays, and I'd like to have a lot more gap fillers on the vendor for the next big bump. Of course, that requires going hunting: I need a shit tonne more hydros.

Got set up to Krayt, killed six dragons then went to make myself a cake (it's a thing I do), and came back to find that I had literally *just* died. Pet was set to Passive. /sigh. Cloned and threw the 5 processables into the Centrifuges, and flew back to Tat to get rebuffed and try again. Same ent, which was great. There is a slew of Rebs on this hill helping me hunt, which is cool. Do Stormtroopers help people hunt? Not that I've seen, but maybe if they are Imperial? Anyone know?

Holy crap. Grouped up with a new friend, who was running a STUNNER of a Spined Rancor (so jealous...)

We chatted a bit, and he asked that question no one seems to: why aren't you guilded?  Next thing I know I am invited into his guild, which also contains a couple old friends from my live Senate days. :) Yay! I have friends again! 

I'm such a noob.

Extracted about 25 good hydros, will need to do more tonight to get my stocks back up, but I have a feeling I will never lack for hunting partners. <Chill> seems like a good bunch, and there are afew BMs in the guild. 

Time to get on with my housework. I am back to shovelling tomorrow, so have to get the place in as close to orderly as I can before then. 

• Aerys: Chuba 3=0
• Lifa: Varactyl 1=0
• Benni: Swirl Prong 1=0 (NO LYASE MSG...)
• Oshorym: Zucca Boar 3=0

WAH! I wanna mutant! Pblpblpblpblttzshpllll.

Dumb Durni / She's Got the Look 2/24/2108

• Aerys: Chuba 1=0
• Benni: Mawgax 3=0
• Lifa: CuPa 3=BOOM (Strikethrough Rating) RAW HYDRO (2.93 mutagen)
• Oshorym: Dewback 2=0

So I had thought I would be unable to attend the event today, but because of RL weather, the day has opened right up. So I set to work making new clothes for Aerys because I was super tired of her being in the same old stuff, and wanted her to have a lush new look for the event. Then I looked over the event details and it's a PvP event. Yay? I will still go and still have fun (may park my dancer on site to buff incoming players rather than fight, considering how badly I will suck at PvP without maxed stats or specials on my beasties. butthe whole thing doesn't happen till 3:30, so I had a lot more time than I'd thought, which is awesome.

Aerys still needs a new look, so I am running off to Naboo to buy a couple bags of Marauder Armour for her and Benni to wear. :)  I might also hatch that spare Tiglon egg with Benni and get her leveling up with her Build-a-Buff collection, if this thing is a go.

So spent an hour and a bit making whole new outfits for Aerys and Benni, and then ran Benni up to Endor. Popped back out of game to find out the co-ordinates for the Rebel prep camp and I am the dumbest Durni in the Galaxy. The event is next weekend. I swear to god... 

/tar self; 

/whap; 

/macro dumbdurni

Well, it wasn't a waste, per se, I did get a pretty cute look together for both ladies. Even IDed Aerys to move away from her more severe look. Also, the sheer incursion of RuPaul's Drag Race into my life has given me such love for Aerys' big fat lips... I spent 5 minutes just picking the right lip colour for her. I even changed the colour of her eyes, which is something I have not done since she was born on Starsider 15 years ago. 

OMG. 15 years. I'm old. So is Aerys, although at least *she* doesn't look it. ;)

Here was one of my earlier looks on Starsider. I wore an Ubese armour shirt recoloured to match the Reb Sleeves. I loved this look, especially since so much of my game was playing a Hardcore Rebel Bitch. 

Later on, I needed a drastic change, so I started off with an Extremely Revealing Skirt, as that became Aerys' signature "Stranger Danger" entertainer outfit. Combine the skirt with the Marauder Armour sleeves (which, back in the day, you needed to be a combat class to wear) and a Low Cut Top and that was *the* look for a long time. It was a *good* look, but had a few drawbacks.

If I didn't want to get /licked in public by strangers, I wore a Belted Skirt or Thin Striped Pants.

I loved this combination: literally wore very little else for most of my game careeer (on my combat toons). I had some formals for Aerlys, and for Aerys when she and Chase' had a hot date, but for the most part, I wore this style through most of my play time. Pretty sure these are Ubese sleeves on this iteration, which was for a portrait I posed for just after I'd been elected Senator, so Feb of 2009 or thereabouts.

Armour recolour kits allowed me to customise my deco sleeves for all kinds of looks and moods, which I probably did a few times a year, in keeping with special events or just the overall feel of things.

This combination is with the Mabari Armourweave pants, which are just such a good shape. I'd wear these in real life!

This is from one of Chase's and my date nights. He'd found a neat location he wanted to share with me. I switched out the Marauder Biceps for the Rebel Biceps and colour co-ordinated with those with a pair of shiny Long Uniform Gloves.


I have yet to get Aerys up past Private in rank, but I did go an buy a couple of options to get her the Biceps, at the least. I do miss the Rebelicious days.

 (I might have to go shopping for a fun Rebel guild... any suggestions? I'm looking for multi-aspect, light PvP and Heroics, and some real guidance on Space, eventually. I am a dedicated player , which should be obvious from this blog... anywho, if you know of such a Guild, comm me a comment!)

I fell in love with Nightsister accessories as soon as they became available. I was given a Beret schematic in the earliest days of the Heroics, and wore it pretty non-stop thereafter.

This outfit is the penultimate Aerys look. Mabari Armourweave Skirt with a sideslung Simple Belt, Ubese Armour shirt and Marauder sleeves, Nightsister hat over it all. I recall the Ubese shirt took the place of the Low-Cut because of the cowl neckline of the Beret.


I had picked up a Nightsister Armguard off the bazaar, because why not spend 500 million creds in the last days of the game? It tied into Aerys' character story as well, one of these days I will blog that in serial sequences. It's not a bad bit of fan fic, if I do say so myself. When the game closed out, I spent a day or two taking screenies of all my beasties.  This is pretty much the final look.

It's very interesting to compare this with the opening choices of Legends. The teal and red are true and bright, all the beasts are coloured to match (as much as possible), and while I'm clearly sad, there's a brightness to it overall.


Now compare: here's the first Legends look. Nightsister hat, Guise of Ice and Doctor's Dress, in dark red and dark teal, very muted and subdued, in comparison. The shades hide the blood really well. The RIS armour biceps showing was purely laziness: I just never got around to making a set of invisible forearms for her.


Coming back to the game, I went with what I recalled were the old comfortable colours: I was pretty sure this combination of raspberry and dark teal was what I closed the game out with back in 2011, (although I recall briefly considering I'd need a new outfit to match A'dmiral Acklay, since he was a weird purple shade, and not dyable.) Yet now, I can clearly see and compare, and they are very different. It's clear my mindset and the sorrow I was feeling on coming back to the game, but having lost everything, having to start all over, even relearning so much basic stuff.

So here is Aerys' new outfit. Shades she has never worn before, and while it is a revamp of her old style (I know what I like), and the feel is fun and different.

I am very glad the sorrow has faded, and that the game gives me joy and comfort, as it did when I was at my lowest. I am still amazed by the depth and detail the whole thing has, and while there is much I have recalled, there was a lot I had forgotten, and so much more I never learned.

So as I am writing this, I have my ent running through her entire song repertoire, because that was something I never did on live.  And she's doing it in new clothes.

Timing is Everything, also, the Forage Worm Story 2/23/2018

• Aerys: Durni 3=0

Ha! Now I have an hour and a half on all my other incubators. Fffffforage Worm. Well, this is as good a time as any to tell the story.

The Forage Worm Debacle

If you don't know, it takes two mutations to change most DNA's to an appearance mutation. Some, it takes three: Acklay used to be one of these, and Varasquactyl, Spined Rancor, Spiny Gorgilla, Mutant Acklay and Blackwing Rancor are all three-stage mutations. I don't recall how many of these we even knew of at the time this incident happened. (EDIT: we had combos for and had achieved Acklay, Spined Rancor and Varasquactyl, but the Blackwing Rancor hadn't been unlocked yet. Spiny Gorgilla was not achieved until Legends.)

The other thing of which many newer players won't be aware is that the colour combinations for most DNAs weren't known. There were several, concerted efforts on both live and test servers to try and find and prove the combinations that would trigger mutations, but since it was a fairly low percentage chance, even with all factors maximised, the testing took years to get through all combinations to unlock the mutation combination for each DNA. This research and the spirit of scientific co-operation that it fostered are a very big reason I love this aspect of this game so deeply. 

I was running sessions on the newest looted DNA that had been added, (I think through the Rare Loot System), which was the Forage Worm. We knew the lyase colour. My routine was to run three sessions with different isomerase colours, but we were to do a confirmation session if we got a boom, since there was a slim chance of a mutation with any colour combo. So, I loaded my incubator with some new DNA, and hit the boom on first session. I waited to confirm, just letting Ztez know I had a possible combo, so he could add the combo to his proof queue. (He was co-ordinating one of the TC labs at the time).

It was very late at night when I hit second session, which acted as a proof of the combo. I had top grade enzymes already set aside and could even feel what was about to happen, fate being the bitch she is. I joked about it but I had a sick feeling I wasn't wrong: I was going to use the combo and get a third Boom and it was going to be a stat, and I would have wasted my one chance to get an Acklay or Blackwing or whatever.

So, I wasn't wrong. But the funniest part is that I was on Ventrilo with many of the Beast Masters at the time it happened. Now, you have to know this: I was the Senator, and a few months before the election, I had won Beast Master of the Month, which was a community recognition we used to give on the forums to reward our most involved and helpful players. Most of my nominations commented on how nice and polite and helpful I was. These guys had this image of me as a super sweet mom type, the June Cleaver of SWG. 

I was apoplectic with rage at the thought that that one stupid ugly critter could have been something amazing like an Acklay or Varasquactyl, which I had been trying for, for months and I just knew, down really deep that it was really unlikely I would ever have a chance for another third stage mutation.  As soon as the I saw the lightening, I literally went off. My crew suffered severe shock at hearing me absolutely launch into a torrent of the bluest language imaginable. 

My friends were amazed and appalled that their sweet LollipopDoc had such a foul mouth, and as the tsunami of profanity continued, some of them got worried. "Lolli, are you okay?" Hoggle asked, when I paused long enough to draw breath.

"I'm... just... so... ffff -" but as I realised how off the handle I was, the F-bomb morphed into the source of my ire. "FORAGE WORM!!!"

And a legend was born. 

To this day, my kids taunt me with the fact that I will sometimes use Forage Worm as a swear. 

And now you know.

• Benni: Mawgax 2=0
• Lifa: CuPa 2=0
• Oshorym: Dewback 1=0

Have not determined if I will scrub the fails... I will decide when those sessions are up, in about 10 hours.

2/22/2018

• Aerys: Durni 2=BOOM (Strikethrough Rating)
• Benni: Purbole 3=0
• Lifa: Flit 3=0
• Oshorym: Carrion Spat 2=0

So there is a chance for another cross off the list tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed.

Definitely going to book a hunting party for this evening. Hydros, bitches! I have exactly enough in stock to make it through till the next set of processes are done. I don't want to waste an hour and a half hunting, when with the same amount of time running with a friend, I can amass so many more, it just makes it so much more worth my while.

I am feeling quite optimistic about my game plans and fun, and finding the only problems are in the lack of time I have to devote to some things. I have too many hobbies.

So spent over 3 hours in game, almost done the Clone Hunter quests, and got lots of good DNA, which is awesome. But I have kinda wasted my day, and really need to get some other stuff done today, so I am logging for a few. I would like to get in a hunt tonight: hope Vlos is up to running with me on that.

And... no Vlos and no hunt, so I am just running Aerys home to flip her incubator. Gawddamit. hour and a half to go. I am too tired to stay up and hit that session tonight. Mrrphle.

• Benni: Mawgax 1=0
• Lifa: CuPa 1=0
• Oshorym: Carrion Spat 3=0
• I wish tehre were a way to check incubator timers from elsewhere in the Galaxy. Rarglenarglefargle.

2/21/2018

• Aerys: Durni 1=0
• Benni: Purbole 1=0
• Lifa: Purbole 1=0
• Oshorym: Purbole 3=0

Went to work for RL BM stuff, came back and realised I had not manahed to throw any 20s into the machines, so was down to three to run the four sessions I had on the docket. Threw the processes together, should have 12 more in as many hours, but went and bought three at 3.5 mill each anyway. I can see what the market is where it is, if 20 pt hydros with crap for mutagen are on the bazaar at 3.5 mill each. No wonder my capped beasties sell at 9 mill per. 

• Lifa: Flit 2=0
• Benni: Purbole 2=0
• Oshorym:  Carrion Spat 1=0
• Aerys: Durni 2=

I have lots of uncapped hydros: need to throw down a bunch of mutant mount attempts and burn through some of those uncapped enzymes. Dewbacks, Borgles/Mawgax and CuPas, fo sho. Only thing I need is DNA. Guess I better get Aerys out there collecting again.  /sigh, /yawn

Welp picked up a few nice samples of DNA, will have to see what they net me in booms. :)

Bed!

Not the Pharple 2/20/2018

• Benni: Pharple 2=0
• Lifa: Pharple 2= BOOM (Evasion Rating) So it's not the Pharple.
• Oshorym: Purbole 1=0
• Aerys: Dalyrake 3= 0

Have to go buy more enzymes: completely out of purple lyases. So I took Osho and headed off, found some good prices and am spending all our money again. :) I have to make sure I leave 24 mill so I can buy a few more crates of processing consumables. Had just bought an Ornate Rug for 28 mill when a new customer bought that Salt Mynock egg I made last week. Guess i'll have to make another one. They are the best damagers of the Nock beasts.

Off hunting Krayts, just a little behind schedule, as I had planned to be doing this in the morning, but had a lovely semi-surprised visit with my grandson instead. That was nice.

Got 16 processables and made another new friend: was a CH on Sunrunner pre NGE. He has a steep learning curve ahead of him. :)

Going to see a flim tonight, and had thought I'd be overnighting at work due to vet appt, but the boss has opted to come and get me, so that's great: I get to sleep in my own bed and maybe play some when I get home, if I'm not crashed out.

Sold another two eggs while I was offline: Swirl Prong and Spined Snake. Time to go buy more processables.

• Benni: Pharple 3=0
• Lifa: Pharple 3=BOOM (Strikethrough Bonus)
• Oshorym: Purbole 2=0

So that's a three stat hit on Pharple. have to report that now. /sigh. 

I am going to concentrate on the Baz Nitch and Shear Mite, since they are Dathomirian, and both use Yellow Lyases. Brackaset and Purbole are also on my radar; these four are also in the market gaps I have been charting.

  

2/19/2018

• Benni: Pharple 1=0
• Lifa: Pharple 1=BOOM (Strikethrough)
• Oshorym: Slice Hound 3=0
• Aerys: Dalyrake 2=0

Sold 15 mill more on Osho. Mails are down so I am not sure what sold. Will do market research tomorrow sometime to see if I can figure it out.

Okay mails were back up today, so here is what sold in the last 10 days:
Double stat-mutated Shaupaut; Langlatch, Bol, stat mutated Choku, mount grade Blurrg, Angler, Jax, stat mutated Crystal Snake, uncapped Horned Raptor, stat-mutated Brackaset and uncapped, stat-mutated Kliknik. 182 mill in sales in 10 days. That's solid. I will keep monitoring that, and see if there's a way for me to chart it visually.

Have 13 20s, so will have to go hunting tonight. I have some housework to do at the moment, and plans for the evening to make.

And home, but tired, so may play more tomorrow than today.

Triple Boom (But not the best kind, not yet) 2/18/2018

It has been a couple days since I have had the time and inclination to post. I have not been playing much, concentrating on much more of my real life, as this weekend I was to play hostess to a whole group of people learning some esoteric (zombie apocalypse survival) skills. So I had to get the house cleaned and organised so we would have room for everyone to sit and do and learn and socialise, and it was a lot of work, but so worth it for the way things around here feel now.

Anywho, I finished processing the last of those hydros that Vlos and I hunted up yesterday, Made a few great 20s, including one 12.25 on the mutagen, which is a personal best. Just in time, too, as I started a Dalyrake this afternoon, and it hit a boom on hit Chance in first stage. Of course, if I use the high mutagen 20, it won't hit on second, but I gotta try. :)

• Aerys: Dalyrake 1=BOOM (Health)
• Lifa: Kliknik 3= BOOM (Strikethrough Bonus)
• Osho: Slice Hound 2=BOOM (Strikethrough Bonus)

I am almost tempted to grab some Pharple DNA and see if the streak holds for Benni too. If I could get some Pharple DNA worth incubating. I was one Kashyyyk for two hours and got so little of value it was disappointing. And with Pharples not being on terminals on Lok, it's a bit frustrating.

In the small bit of gaming time this week, I did actually get further towards finishing Osho\s shop, and I am pretty happy with how that looks. Need to build him a crafting space/office in the back room and then a little grove in the private space, as a temporary solution to the lack of a Kash Treehouse.

Oh, and I did have a good if brief chat with Ash regarding a super secret project, which i had some thoughts about later, so we will be continuing the conversation, I hope, to see fruition sooner rather than later.

I have not made it back to the Love Fest things, but I will get back into that n all toons as soon as I can. Lifa needs sets of wings for her vendors in all the colours. Honestly, I want to do some clothing crafting soon, too. Kinda bored of Aerys's current outfit.

Ooh! sold that uncapped Horned Raptor egg! 100 mill in the bank! Yay! So I can go shopping for more enzymes and processables and! Yayayayay! So I sold 5 capped pets and one mutation in the last week. Will do another market look over tomorrow to get a sense of movement, but I think my current strategy is working well, so I will likley produce a few more "gap" creatures and keep chasing those missing mtations. I have crossed three off the lists so far. Here's hoping they don't add another new one before we find these two, or we have no time to even celebrate finding the one. Speaking of Legend's specific mutations, I still really want a Carax. I should go get some more Torton DNA.

Anywho, logging on to drag Aerys home and calling it a night.

Allaylu Ta Nuv

It is in fact Valentines Day and yet it seems the Ewok Love Fest is not a thing this year?

I am kind of okay with that, as I have less time to play while I am getting my real life house deco done and such.

Aerys had a boom on stage two of a Kusak, so here's hoping for another tomorrow, so we can either write that one off, or find one of the new mutants.

Ash and I are starting to discuss a new super secret project, so hopefully that will come to fruition sooner rather than later.

I am cleaning house today, so will be logging on later tonight to go hydro hunting, hopefully with company. Still have 11 20s but won't get much chance to hunt till after the weekend, what with everything I have on deck before then. It's tonight or Monday, I think.

Had a terrific hunt with Vlos, got 70 processable hydros which was great. Now bed!

It's Official, You All can Blame Ash Now 2/11/2018

yay, Ash was able to figure out how I'd fucked it up and I can log in again! Yay!

• Aerys: Thune 1=0
• Lifa: Malkloc 3=0
• Benni: Baz Nitch 2=0
• Oshorym: Kliknik 3= BOOM! (Glancing Blow)

And six more 20s in progress. I should go hunting no later than Monday night.

Okay kids. Bedtime. 

And up, and off to the barn and then archery practice.

Home now, ponies fed and happy in the sun, and targets well pierced, and a lot of housework yet to do, so I am eating to fuel up and playing to relax and then going to get on with my work.

• Aerys: Thune 2=0
• Lifa: Mamien 1=0
• Benni: Baz Nitch 3=0
• Oshorym: Kliknik 1=0

Wah, no boomses.

Ah well. I did post up the eggs, and a notice about purchasing of enzymes. it would be grand if the harvesters brought them to me rather than me having to go get them. Would save me some time, if not any money.

Ran Aerys to Lok to gather random DNA. Not a bad harvest: got about 10 usable samples in an hour or so.

Too many hours till the incus can be switched, so I went to bed.

Graphic Language 2/10/2108

So before I afked at the Janta spawn, I had a great chat with Ash. Oh gosh, evil plans are afoot, my fellow Mad Scientists!

• Aerys: Brackaset 3=0 (Not 100% sure I used the right lyase... /sigh)
• Benni: Baz Nitch 1=0
• Lifa: Malkloc 2=0
• Oshorym: Kliknik 2=0

AFKing the Sligtooth. Level 49 when I set up last night, level 62 when I popped back in to flip processors and incubators.

I think I have figured out what the issue with the legends forum is: I am logged in to my main google account on Chrome, but my forum account was logged in from the work Google, so... there's a disconnect between the one and the other. I am not sure how to fix this, but Ima guess it would be by changing my basic account info on the SWG Legends forum. I hope I can even do that...

Okay, tentatively, that might have worked. If I can figure out how to confirm my email address...

Anyway.

Nope. Nothing's working.

Sent a message to Ash and cried like a lil girl for help. He'll hopefully be able to take a look when he gets home from work.

Two More Days in One

• Oshorym: Kliknik 1=0
• Lifa: Gaping Spider 1= BOOM! (Evasion)
• Benni: Voritor 1=0
• Aerys: Brackaset 1=0

Processing sessions ongoing: 7 20s under way, and 2 mutagen reprocessors running. Vlos also gave me 6 20s last night, and access to his lab supplies, so I am ransacking as I go. Definitely need more >89.4s in all colours to really maximise the quality of my attempts.

And boy howdy, I need DNA. If I were to spend an hour a day per planet I am sure I could build up a decent stock. Time, my friends: who has any time for sale?

• Oshorym: Kliknik 2=0
• Lifa: Gaping Spider 2= BOOM! (Block Chance)

I just ran processors. Getting some nice returns

• Oshorym: Kliknik 3=0
• Lifa Gaping Spider 3=0
• Benni: Voritor 2=0
• Aerys: Brackaset 2=BOOM! (Evasion)

Cool. A chance to see if the Brackaset is the source DNA for one of the new mutations.

And yay, GL is online! Frand!

And he needs some clothes made, so I guess I know what I am going to do with my morning. 

Tailor Shopping List: 

• Nabooian Scaley
• Tat Woolly
• Marauder Arms
• Padded Arms
• Ubese Armour Shirt

Now running on Yavin then Dath, just DNA and enzyme hunting. Gota few nice hydros off the Scorpion Klikniks too. :)

Now to work on my real life stuff. Back in a few hours.

• Lifa: Malkloc 1=BOOM! (Glancing Blow)
• Osho: Kliknik 1=0

Okay, going to bed now.

Dathomir Harvest 2/7/2018

Carnivore meat is good on Dath right now, (thanks, Greenlotus for the tip, and Happy Birthday, dude!)

I flipped processors and ran off to do more of the Dath Prologue quests for shiggles, chatting merrily with GL, being as the chat servers were operative again this morning. Had a brill convo regarding cultural mores and imbalances, and different approaches we as individuals can take to make our real world a better place. I so enjoy meeting and getting to know new people.

Had dinner with my honey and a couple I really admire last night, and one of them got me seriously fired up abaout a scary cool space MMO currently in beta... Oog. Here's the link. Sexiest damned thing!

• Lifa: Mamien 1=0
• Lifa: Mamien 2=0, scrub.

Logged on when I got home to meet up with my old friend Vlos to run and harvest a bunch of hydros. Had another brilliant conversation and got a tonne of materials, not only from the hunt, but also because Vlos gave me access to his stores of enzymes, which could not be better times, as I have been spending a lot of time ransacking the bazaar.

It's late and I am going to bed very soon. I have a shorter day tomorrow, should be home in good time to get some housework done before I play.

Whee!

2 - 2, yes, 2 Days in One! Ah ah ah! 2/5 and 2/6/2018

• Lifa: Bol 2=0
• Benni:Eopie 3=0
• Oshorym: Krevol 3=0

And then the server wouldn't load, so that's all for that day.

And then my battery borked, so I barely played the next day.

• Lifa: Bol 3=0

Not really enough hydros to run the next few sessions, so I guess I know what my evening's plans are.

Two hours of hunting, 22 processable hydros, and for the first part of the hunt the pulls were great: 3 high 88 isos and an 89, and 15 hydros over 7. It petered out thereafter, but I'll take those pulls. :)

Happy with taht evening's work. More tomorrow, although being as it is a Wednesday, perhaps nothing to elaborate. 

Double Booms, No Pretty New Mutants 2/4/2018

• Lifa: Zucca Boar 2=BOOM (Strikethrough Rating)
• Oshorym: Swirl Prong 3= BOOM! (Critical Hit)
• Aerys: Shaupaut 2=BOOM! (Block Chance)
• Benni: Eopie 1=0

Ran Osho out to get some element As for processing, since that seems to be the bottleneck right now. There was a fellow on Corellia who ahd a bunch of As and a couple Es for 45 k each: great price, so I bought him out of the high 9s. He was on a sweet little Island kind of equidistant between Tyrena and Coronet. I didn't even know that was there. That's where I'd like a city, if I couldn't set up on the Tyrena plains.

Did some vendor research, as it's been about 2 weeks since I last looked. There are 60 pt pets on the bazaar for 6 mill. How can anyone even make a living at that price. Most of them weren't capped for DPS, but that just doesn't make that big a difference: hydros are way harder to produce than finding or buying top grade isos. Any way, prices on average have dropped,  even though there are fewer pets on vendors this week than last. 155 pets on vendors two weeks ago, 145 on vendors this week. \so sales are going well for most sellers, although none of the mutants have moved.

• Lifa: Zucca Boar 3=0
• Oshorym: Horned Krevol 1=0

Was a good time, so I hunted a few Krayts, before my laptop battery went low and in plugging in in my room, I died. Too bad, was getting good harvests and decent loots and no one else was out there. Ah well. I have housework to do, while I am feeling able to be upright.

Ran processors, made a few more 20s and some others. Final sessions today:

• Lifa: Bol 1= BOOM! (Block Chance)
• Benni: Eopie 2=0
• Oshorym: Horned Krevol 2=0
• Aerys: Shaupaut 3=BOOM! (Hit Chance)

So that's another off the list - Shaupaut is not a stat-app. I should post those two to the forum. Ugh. Just hate how the forum looks on this system.

Two Days in One: I'm not well 2/2/2018

Friday...

• Aerys: Whisper Bird 3=0
• Oshorym: Swirl Prong 1=0
• Lifa: Ronto 3= BOOM! (Strikethrough Rating)
• Benni: Choku 2=0

Ran off and did an hour or so of krayting, ran into Greenlotus, who has made his alt a Medic BM, so I ran Osho out with some eggs for him. I hope he has fun with it.

Crashed hard, because I am not feeling even 50%. 

Saturday: Slept through till 1, got up and tidied the house some before logging in to flip processors and incubators.

Aerys: Shaupaut 1=0

Benni: Choku 3=0

Lifa: Zucca Boar=0 (Hard to get a Boom when you don't use the right combo...)

Oshorym: Swirl Prong 2=0

Need one of those mutants to sell, as we are down to less than 10 mill, and need to buy enzymes at the rate we are burning through them. 

I cannot seem to fix the look of the legends website, which frustrates me. I get broken visual boxes instead of the format I am used t. It's doing it on my phone as well as the laptop, and it has put me way off using the forum. If any of the six regualr readers have any help, I'd really appreciate some advice.

2/1/2018

Woke up in good time to flip processors and prep materials for my next sessions, with less than an hour to go on both Lifa's and Benni's sessions.

I have to be on time for work today, but will be bringing the laptop with me, in order to flip the processors to aim for that nice 18. I think I have a formula that makes sense: need 70-75 as the total of elements to make the 18 most likely. the problem is I can't really get much above 9 on the mutagen with those numbers in my elements, and I have 20s with greater mutagen than that... grr. Well, when it comes time, I will use the highest mutagen that will still cap: 18, 19 or 20. I need to not be in a rush, but dammit, it's hard!

• Lifa: Ronto 1= BOOM! (Evasion)
• Benni: Tybis 3 = 0
• Aerys: Whisper Bird 2 =  BOOM! (Strikethrough Rating)
• Osho: Vorpal Durni 3=0

And not surprised but /sighing. Have to gather up more good materials to try again. I have a lots of DNA at least.

• Lifa: Ronto 2 =0
• Benni: Choku 1=0

and that's my day.

Catch you on the flip.

Boom, Baby! 1/31/2018

• Lifa: Tybis 2 = BOOM! (Hit Chance)
• Benni: Tybis 2 = BOOM! (Evasion Rating)
• Aerys: Whisper Bird 1=0 
• Oshorym: Vorpal Durni 2 =  BOOM! (Strikethrough Bonus)

OMG. Now I need an 18 with as high mutagen as is possible in order to maximise the chance of this giving me the app. 

• Lifa: Tybis 3=0

Everyone else has to wait, since I was only able to start her this morning, so everyone else's timers are offset.

Holy shit. Going krayting for hydros like, now. And gotta check vendors for better quality Light Blue isomerases...

Yeah, and wanting it this bad, it is very likely to not boom. Oh god I hate/love this game!

Shopped a bit on Osho, then ran Aerys to Tat, buffed up and went to Greyfox, to add some more residents to the Krayt Graveyard.

I was there maybe 5 minutes when a fella rolled up and asked what I was after. When I said hydros, he declined to group, saying he would just go for the lil ones and I could take the bigger. Cool, at least he didn't huff off. In fact, he came back about three kills later and invited me to his group. Nice fella, from Hungary, and we hunted together for about 2 hours. I extracted 20 7+s for him to use, since I am processing everything in hopes to get a few good mutagen 18s to choose from, and I left there with 51 hydros to run through my processors. Boy howdy, it do roll faster with company!

He headed off to do his own thing and I finished using up one of my extractors. Best pull of the night was a 9 with a 7 mutagen. I got several decent muta pulls with that split specced extractor. I schould see if there are any others like it on the bazaar.

Anywho, I am BEAT, so I am going to crash. may set an alarm to run those sessions in 3 hours, so I can finagle up some options. I doubt I will get what I want before I have to leave for work, so... maybe not. I'll see how I feel.
