    Hi All, I'm sure you're all enjoying the bonus Peds being earned through the AU Deeds due to myself and others Globalling and HOFFing in the underground.

    This is great for all of us as when I Hof or Global I know there is a % coming back to me, so the more people we get doing this, whether it's mining, hunting, swunting or crafting ... it helps all of us. So consider if you will the next time you're going to Hunt, Craft or Mine ... Head down to the Underground and help all of us involved and increase the price of the payouts so that we are always ahead of those that have the CLDs.

    there's not a tax on crafting but if you're making enhancers or explosive projectiles you have to buy something from the TT, and there is a tax on those for down there.

    [QUOTE="I think with the smuggler event u get plenty of peds , specialy with those towers that have been lately[/QUOTE]

    yeah but why only have decent payouts when there's an event, why not more often?

    yeah the vaults are instances and don't add to the daily intake ( as my understanding ), guys, if I'm wrong please advise me. but I have a friend who was running the Aakas and his final boss mob dropped Nova Fragments ... I felt so gutted for him.

    Hey guys, few points to clarify.

    There is no tax on crafting
    There is no difference in the TT in Underground, no tax on it
    There is no tax on the instances down there.

    Mr Super Muis - please send a pm to Mathias | Arkadia here on the forum with details of your case number and we will follow up. I won't prejudge the details of the support case, however 3 months is definitely too long to not have a case answered.

    Regards,
    Dave

    Thats interesting cause the day that I was HOFFing down there was a high payout day of 3pec ... and I was only crafting

    but thats cool, so we just need to drag more peeps down to Mine and Hunt.

    People dont usualy like tax lands but most make an exception for the posibility of hitting something big , there we many towers in the underground , for hunters there are mobs that give good loot with mu or rare items but u need perseverence , i know many go for a few rounds of hunting or mining and then just give up , your idea is good but if u would be able to do events with prizes it would give people incentive

    found it... but only seems my friend got his ped return on the key... that's about it... so for now i don't trust these vaults allot -__-. coz if u do the whole thing and @ the end u don't get loot. u will only get your key value maby back after a supp ticket:stats:...

    Thanks for clarifying Dave; while you're at it :smile:... I'd also like to know (I'm an Underground noob and was unable to find the answers :shamefullyembarrased:):
    1. Are equipment Repairs taxed?
    2. Are Globals (HOFs, ATH etc included) the only taxable action? No tax on regular loot from Mining or Hunting?
    3. Fuel burned?

    Thanks in advance.

    All mining and hunting loot is taxed on LAs, regardless of the amount looted.

    okay so for clarity for crafting, Globals and HOF's from crafting do not get included in the "tax" that we get paid out for in our AUD's?

    EG: I scored and 80k ATH the other day, and then was globalling and HOFFing like a demon, and the payout in UD was 3pec, i stopped day before yesterday after payouts were stable at 2pec pr AUD, so i didnt craft at all yesterday and the payout last night was 1pec.

    Does that mean that noone else was mining/hunting down there during the next cycle (0001-2359) to get the payout up from 1 ped?

    But my understanding was that the payouts are taken from the total monies made from the area, not the tax.
    David can you clarify please ... I thought we were paid a % of the 5% from the overall income of globals and hofs and normal hunting/mining.

    Very easy to clarify - there is a 5% Hunting and 5% Mining tax on the Underground, same as any other LA.

    That tax is then divided among the deeds and distributed evenly every day. Each 1 PED threshhold results in a 1 PED payment. So for example, if the tax came to 1.9 PED per deed, then it pays out 1 PED that day and carries .9 PED to the next day. If the next day the tax was 2.1 + the carried over .9 then you'd have a 3 PED day. That can partly explain why it can jump from 1 PED to 3 PED in a day.

    In regards to crafting in the Underground, you can make a big difference by buying resources from the miners there to use in your crafting.

    Hope that helps,
    Dave
