    Hello, My name is Kenty Zaro Jasy. I started Entropia Universe since late 2001. I am a huge fan in mining. This time I would like to share with you my next adventure. Arkadia mining with level 7 amp on maxed vrx2000 finder. I will be mining ores mostly.

    I am level 43 in prospector and mining.

    At this time I am not calculating MU on ores.

    I am selling ores too, if you are a crafter and need some ores, please add me to friend list =)

    thanks guys for the welcome. I am still waiting for my amp supplier to log on so I can grab some more amps before I go.

    I am brining total of 55 amps and hopefully stay on Ark for a while. I need a change from Calypso :)

    run #1

    7 x level 7 amps (with MU)+ 273 bombs = 1190 PED
    TT ore found = 1134.1 PED

    Finally had the chance to do my first run. I felt welcome already when I got a "large" on my first bomb :p

    I will calculate my return with TT price for now since I have no idea how much they sell on Arkadia..

    not too bad a start :)

    total = - 55.9 ped

    TT ore found = 1003.11 PED

    this run = +168.11

    Did a 5 amp run just now...I hit alot of NRFs. Almost too many...but luckily I had these globals to cover for them..:) Overall I am loving Arkadia! It's very big and a peaceful place. I enjoy mining here.

    zaro run #4

    4 x level 7 amps (with MU) = 1020 PED
    TT ore found = 602.8 PED

    this run = -417.2

    Total PED Out = 4420
    Total PED in = 4197.44

    Total= -230.56

    Bad run..I think I hit total..30 claims? or maybe less...felt like there were alot of NRF streak in between claims..234 bomb with lvl 7 amps..and nothing bigger than Ample...

    I am almost half way through all my amps..and still nothing too surprising has happened yet..still waiting for that magical moment on Arkadia..hopefully it will come before I run out amps :eek:

    run # 8

    3 level 7 amps (with MU) = 510 PED
    TT ore found = 636.7 PED

    this run = +126.7

    Total PED Out = 5780
    Total PED in = 5423.89
    Total return % = 93.94%

    TT Total= -356.11 PED

    Hit rate was EXTREMELY horrible..I hit a global and a hof + 2 other claims on my first amp..then I literally hit 23 NRFs TWICE on the next two amps...no matter where I go...I am still hitting a lot of NRFs..

    I am thinking because I always play at low peak time..and there isnt enough player in game to cycle PEDs around..:p
    But thankfully...I global and Hof...imagine the lost I would have without them...I don't event want to imagine it :p

    AMPs left: 21

    9 level 7 amps (with MU) = 1530 PED
    TT ore found = 1525.23 PED

    this run = -4.77

    Total PED Out = 8330
    Total PED return = 7813.53

    TT Total= -516.47 PED

    lol only lost a little this run ...hitrate was in fact quite good. Perhaps it's the weekend? More players playing?

    but remember this total is the total without MU. So i will still have to calculate that later when I sell my ores. I keep them in my storage...if anyone needs ores on Arkadia..please give me a shout. I have like 8k worth of ores now..

    only 6 amps left to go! Show me the goodness Arkadia!

    IT"S GREEEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEE I cant believe it [​IMG] after 55 level 7 amps! at the end, one level 13 saved the day [​IMG]

    Yea, I knew I was gambling..but I actually felt really lucky...I logged on and just went straight to Max's shop and grabbed a lvl 13, then off I go mining :p. Hit couple globals..and in the middle...I hit a XVI. I thought to myself this could be good [​IMG] the next bomb...XIX [​IMG]

    Yes lvl 13 is very evil.. It gives you globals, and thick golden swirls..but .I had some bad experiences with lvl 13s. I probably wont play with them again in a while hehe.
