I just finished the lvl135 HU'd with my TS. It requires you have a device built that means you have to purchase a lvl8 comp, loot a particular item from a lvl50 Mob, mine a lvl8 ore and a lvl9 ore. Did I bother to clear the entire fields? Of course not. Does that make me a Cherrypicker?  I know there are other missions that require mining a particular ore. Are those players Cherrypickers? My point is there may be a legit reason so stop with the sour grapes.

If you are a JD, there is a gate in Swooping Eagle sector/Sirius system that takes you to Europa. From there you have a gate to Jupiter.

I miss Duke Nukem. That was a very fun game. Not brainy just fun.

Checks the horse. It has stopped breathing. Hangs another clothesline for the crying towels. Time to let this complaint go.   Camping roid/hulk fields is no different than camping mobs for the valuable gear. Keep trying, maybe you'll get lucky and get there when it's not camped and find what you want.   If the devs don't/won't make a few changes like less junk or random timers/drop locations, then it must be the way they want it to function.

I submitted this as a bug weeks ago. I was told it is a display bug. If you move the ammo after you manu it, the correct dmg amount will be displayed.

Dead Horse syndrome rears its ugly head again :(

Oh no. Real life. I'm afraid to go outdoors. At least I know others are having the same problem.

All the talk about a well-played JE haveing no problem makes me ask, do you remember there are two other races with miners that don't have cloak. I'd like to hear from them also. Their perspective is probably different and counts just as much IMO.

I too used to relax while mining when I found a field that wasn't guarded. It's a little harder to find those now. There are many reasons why players cherry pick especially in high level fields. They could be doing a mission that requires a large amount of a particular ore so they take that only and move on. They could be maxed already so aren't interested in the XP but are looking for ammo or weapons ores. It takes a long time to pull large quantities of anything including debris. When the field is guarded by high level mobs that want to turn you into charcoal, it can seem like an eternity. Risk versus reward. A high level item/ore is worth the risk but debris isn't IMO. Low to mid level miners love stacks of debris. Great, leave it for those fields. If there has to be some in high level fields, I'd suggest reducing the quantities and thus the time to pull them. This should encourage players to empty the roid/hulk. There is more than enough debris in low level fields to meet the needs of builders.

    Dozens of players, myself included, lost many lvl150 toons equipment/credits. They have hundreds of levels to make up so consider yourself fortunate. 16 levels can be made up in a day.

This is no different than camping equipment drops IMO. And you don't have to be rich to have enough toons to camp 24/7. Guilds have been doing it since the start of EnB, they just take shifts. And since so many have complained about the economy, this behavior will ensure a monopoly on equipment and ores forcing players to pay someone to get anything worthwhile. The Devs seem to be encouraging this with the increases in mob difficulty, drop rates and locations. Only they know if it's intentional "working as intended" as they say. It is their game afterall and the rest of us are just along for the ride. It is a shame that we will undoubtedly lose some players that find the current version too tough to be fun and move on.

Stop putting debris in mid to high level hulks. Problem solved.

If the server loses track of you like during a crash it usually places you at Net-7 in Saturn. Much better than being dropped off in the middle of a bunch of hostile mobs somewhere.

You are assuming all hulk fields respawn in under 2 hrs. I would be surprised if that were true. Only the Devs know that but they wouldn't tip their hand so we'll all have to keep guessing.

[b]I did this mission with my JD and TT in formation. All the same steps and responces all the way up to getting Santa's gift. No problem with my JD but my TT got killed right after getting Santa's gift. Is this a faction quirk or this another case of "working as intended"?[/b]

[i]I have to agree with the other players that are saying mob swarming is out of control. I've been playing non-stop since the beginning of ST1 and have seen the great strides as well as a few trip-ups along the way. I also give thanks and a big thumbs up to the dev team for all their hard work in bringing back our beloved E&B. [/i] [i]I am mainly a solo player and take great pride in having leveled 5 toons to 150 without any power-leveling by other players. If the current mob AI is intended to drive away solo players, just say so and we will leave the EMU to the guilds.[/i] [i]As a solo player, I've already accepted the fact that many parts of the game are not accessible. This swarming and overpowering by low-level mobs takes away even more of the available content and forces players to look for the few lower level mobs that don't. This just adds to the grind IMO. Please rethink these changes before it's too late.[/i] [i]I'm not asking for "God Mode" but please lighten up a bit.[/i]

If you look at all the posts about cherrypicking, the main complaint is that mid to high lvl miners don't take the time to pull the debris since it gives them so few credits and no XP. Reducing the amount of debris in roids may resolve both concerns.

If your OL is not within 15 levels of the job you're trying to get you will get that msg IIRC.

Ah your proudly displaying your Progen badge of honor.

My toon CpwingsTT on my game account Wingscp is stuck. I was gating from Glenn to SE sector when it locked. When I try to relog him, I get stuck at galaxy screen. The other toon on that acct works fine. Thank you in advance.

Played on the Andromeda server during live for well over a year up to sunset. Was in Founders Federation guild at 1st. When sunset was announced most of them left the game. Then my lvl150 JD was recruited by Merchant Marines and my other toons joined a small guild named Mithril. I've been playing the EMU since ST1. Actually been far longer than the game lasted under EA.

You shouldn't use any of EA's names so stick with Sunrise or change to Phoenix.

Perhaps this post should be moved to Player Knowledge Base and be stickied so new players can find it more easily.

If you are mining for the exploration XP you will want to empty all roids for the bonus. This is important to low to mid level miners and is also a great way to make credits. If you are a high level or maxed player you may not be concerned about the field clear bonus and are only interested in ores you need for an alt perhaps. Leaving behind anything else will still leave the field clear bonus for someone else. There are very few hulk fields and they are picked over daily. The high level hulk fields I've seen are well guarded. Taking time to empty them of lvl1 debris or lvl2 slag while trying to avoid being killed is pointless IMO. Remove the low-level junk from high-level hulks and quicken the respawn. Maybe less hulks per field but more fields spread to more sectors would level the playing field.

I am also having this problem and message.
