    You have arrived at Arkadia from a long journey and want to know what to hunt, where to mine, what is available to craft .. but you want something more than just click and shoot. Below is a list of general opportunities, but mostly geared towards events. If you aren't listed here, you aren't promoting any events.

    For the player of highest hunting level of 1-10:


    • Arkadian Key 1 - level 7-8 with adjusted pixie/musca is often enough to do this key. It will generally help you skill up faster, farm Arkoins for clothing/gear or approximately 110% MU, and with very little losses - perhaps even profit.


    • Obtain Viceroy Armour - The quarry manager in Celeste Quarry [31273, 9476, 132] has several quests that will allow you to obtain armor, similar to Gremlin, that is soulbound. (15 impact, 12 burn, 8 cold, 9 cut, 11 stab, 14 acid, 3000 durability) - This involves farming a lot of materials such as orange/yellow paint cans, various pieces of wood (how that makes armor, I don't know), oils, and more.


    • Carabok/Nusul/Zadul/Halix/Tiarak - these chain of mobs give the best markup particularly in the form of hides. The spread of these mobs will allow you to farm materials for viceroy. Halix tails are worth 3500% mu if you can get one. Nusul and Tiarak have high markup hides that give armor/clothing it's black appearance but at a massive reduction in price.


    • Vehicle Repair - EFA.MS has regularly scheduled repair programs (www.efa.ms) that will allow you to skill important crafting skills (Engineering) to unlock Blueprint Comprehension.


    • Big Industries SSI Program - get up to 2.5ped/1k sweat in a regularly scheduled sweating event at Celeste Outpost. Join #Arkadia to know when these events take place. This event is limited to those new players who have 40 agility or less, limited 10 players prioritized by agility.


    For the mid-level to big-time hunter:


    • Big Industries PLA Program - Hunting at 8 Coins and Arkadia Land Area 6/Songkra Valley will allow you to participate in the Big Industries reward program that was exclusively only on Calypso. Get +2 reward points (equivalent to 2 ped) per hunting AND mining globals on either of these lands. Each global counts towards a weekly overcharged event where you could possibly earn up to 4,000PED. Should you hit a big HOF, you could take home up to 100% of the monthly progressive, should you get all 5 places.






    • Huon and Kadra Bounties at Sanctuary Cove - The first Arkadia LA with bounty oriented system. Finish Stage 5 of either to receive VIP status for that mob and get up to 10ped per global permanently. Not at stage 5? No problem! Get 50 globals or more in a month to receive a rebate.


    • Korwil Brain Bounty - Hawkwing, owner of Sanctuary Cove, is paying 15,000PED each for 2 Korwil Brains. If you are lucky enough to get one, be sure to contact him to receive your amazing reward.

    I saw you paste the link to this thread in #Ark chat, and when I read the title I thought it would be a guide to creating/hosting Events.

    This seems to be a very useful list you have here, but not quite what I expected. So I'm throwing out a future request. Is there anyway you can make a tutorial/guide thread that covers the aspects of creating an event via Event terminal, and things to consider as an event host? Perhaps with included video? You would be a good person for the job I think, since you own a LA and host many events, you should have valuable insight. I would also be interested to see info/video about how the LA mob/maturity/density DNA stuff works, I was always curious about this little terminal on the LAs. :D

    With the creation of the recent Puny Wars and other 'sanctioned' HSL events, I think it's possible there are plenty of people out there who are curious about the Event system and how it works. I haven't seen any threads specifically covering this topic yet, maybe I just missed it.

    Nice compilation of stuff. Anyways to put stuff in proper perspective quickly. The SSI's from BIG buy for 2.5PED/k from 10 people and prioritizes people of 40 agility or less. Slight error there.
    Also you forgot about the PFC/PFA events as well posted here
    Overal really nice compilation :)
