    Is it just me or does everyone want to hunt high HP - low hit rate and low agro mobs nowadays? On Calypso they had to "hide" the Leviathan spawns and reduce spawn density because they was just too popular.

    And then of course it doesn't take long until you have a bunch of people, those who should skill-, gear- and bankrollwise rather hunt 300 HP mobs and not 3000+ ones, complain on the forum about loot and lack of items in loot.

    "Just because you can kill something doesn't mean you should" is an advice all over the various EU forums. Sounds obvious but if you look ingame then a lot of people don't bother with common sense. So at times the game designers have to do something about it and enforce people do play more reasonable (not that i think it always works :D).

    Very true and a great post, their is plenty of mobs for every level of player just hunt the ones that are your level and all will be good. Any one else think that the high rate of return on the Huron was because they were hunted by so many people? I think as time goes on the loot will balance out when people start hunting in their level range. I personally feel no need to be upset over a nerf of a mob I thought should have been harder to kill in the first place.

    Me Too, things Were just Way to Peaceful, The Tiaraks were Like PeaceFul Animals that look More Beastly than Calypso's Argonauts and they just stared into the Sky in Confusion (Lmao) I hope Now they Will try to Kill my Avatar and Rip Him To Shredds just to Find Out they Dont Have a Chance Against My Omegton Pig(Oink Oink Suckaz HAHAHA).. So i Cant wait to log on... As Far as the Loot... The Loot Sucked Before Arkadia and im Sure it will Suck After Arkadia..

    I must say it was way to easy to walk amongst all the mobs, so if that is changed I do not mind to much. I can understand why miner will not like it, but it was way to easy.

    Of course, and it should be like that. Arkadia has vast areas without mobs, if you feel you have to mine (too) close to mob spawns then you sure would have a very good reason for that, wouldn't you?

    True.....but there are wide open areas and a simple tp chip will get you around a spawn....no need to be alarmed IMO. Mining on Calypso was a major pain with all the agro mobs. Go back to Calypso if you will, there will still be demand on Ark.

    I seriously hope that you haven't increased the health on Oweko....

    Edit: nope lowered hp on them to 500hp on a young and 800hp on Old, and aggro higher ofc

    Something I didn't see mentioned maybe I wasn't paying attention, but, Halix young are all level 3 now..not two..mined my way through a whole herd just a while ago..every young was level 3.

    Might get tricky since the contest was for level 2 halix..lol.

    wot .. lower !!!! out rage !! rant ! cry ! shout ! demands patch ! makes voodo dolls of david !


    in short cool because I like Oro which are tougher and Owekos. Good job rebalacing after just 2 weeks of arkadial And ppl please remember Arkadia is young so a lot of tuning will be made. More weapons to be discovered etc etc. If you dont like it there are other planets that also do rebalacing so just keep hunting

    I am curious, is there going to be a release with new stuff (i.e. missions) in it before the august update, or are the upcoming releaes mainly bug fixes as well? Not that i don't like bugfixes, but it getting rather boring on Arkadia for me. Nothing decent to craft, nowhere decent to mine, no interesting missions, and i'm really not much of a hunter.

    During a couple of hunts today, my armor decay and fap usage on Huons was also significantly higher after this adjustment, and loot also seemed... less.

    Huons were an enjoyable, exciting, and obtainable mob for an middle-class noob such as myself, but I also will most likely be cycling significantly less ped hunting on Arkadia after this change.

    EDIT: I also forgot to mention 3 "ninja spawns" within an hour... Huon lands on my head and stars beatin' the piss outta me while I'm already occupied fighting another Huon. That had not happened during the past few weeks on Arkadia on any mob, especially Huon.

    The reality of... balancing?

    Apparently a necessary aspect of fair play within the universe...

    Reality is, I'm still staying on Arkadia. :)

    I liked this patch, now If MA can fix the "Failed" problems I still have would be perfect.

    Thanks :p

    Yep

    Yep, JC, both youngs and matures are level 3..lol. It was a shock when I was mining and saw the first one, then scoped the whole field, and shot a bunch, and everything was level 3.

    This is my first post on your forum... I thought Arkadia and I were getting off on a good start until today. Guess what? Kiss both sides of my ass... im going back to Calypso

    wtf are you thinking changing HP levels, argo levels, and damage levels right in the middle of a competition? I was cycling 1K to 3K PED ammo per day, buying (L) guns on your planet, supporting your economy. Thats gone now.

    C-ya... im out

    lol pussies, i say see ya later!!! its funny that changing the stats on one or three mobs will make you leave. theres a whole planet of mobs AND the different loot they drop, why just kill huon and yuka ALL THE TIME. you were all just hoping for a fat hof on the new planet so you could go back to calypso anyway, meh... good riddance

    as a side note : you will all be back :)
