How Cyrene is heavily exploited

[sostoned]

How Cyrene is heavily exploited and why its so damaging for the planet.

2 problems in the lootsystem that are causing much trouble here are:

1. The lootserver that decides what type of loot you get (not the value) refreshes at fixed times. Its 45 minutes.

2. Interesting loot with higher markup is capped.


for example how to exploit cracked shell.

loot server wil refresh every 45 minutes and calculate how much cracked shell can be looted.
shoot tide claws just after server refresh as long as needed to empty lootpool. Nowadays usually after a few.
keep the cracked shell.
it will loot less and less, markup will rise.
now craft with them on silent time of day
await server refresh
go hunt tide claws, you will loot them back.
markup will be trough the roof because noone will be able to get them.

This is happening right now with cracked shell. Its used in a daily mission so the daily missions are too expensive.

It happened with dire weed flaxen
its happening with jagged tooth

so it ruins the crafting on cyrene.
That ruins markup of other stuff.
That makes an empty planet

More space for exploiters.

its circle.


Planetpartner pays.

Why Cyrene is a pretty dead planet.


suppose youve never been on cyrene, this is what first impression will be.

dang, what a freakin awesome planet but what should i do.

theres no information, noone knows what to do. ill ask others.

noone gives information, people have secrets here.

then ill shoot some stuff, dang only shit because the good stuff is stacked.

then ill mine a bit, dang only lyst and oil because its very concentrated in small areas

then ill craft, shit where are the materials?

dang, dang, dang, what a shit planet, goin home.

why so frustrated ? what secrets do ppl have ? u can ask me anything, and i will tell u what u want to know...

atm i just see u bitching around without asking or sharing anything.

the 45 min timer is wide known now. WSS ppl and a few other guys loot up to 2000 ped MU DAILY !!! at Crystal Palace Dome 5 while they hang around there all day with several ava´s waiting till the timer let respawn the right mob. The timers are a Problem everywhere at Entropia. thats not a Cyrene Thing.

Hi Sostoned, thank you for the information above. We have notified the technical department handling this and pointed them to the issues.

I will lock the thread not to have too much off-topic in it and we already have a thread going with the same topic here:
