Thread: Highest Quality Meat?
Hi all,
I'm on Bloodfin, and looking to harvestthe highest oq meat possible for myself and meds I know (stims).
I hadfound some VERY good meat from humbaba just a couple days ago, but when I harvested several different lairs of them last night, the OQ had gone completely down the tubes.
I'm guessing the organics must shift along with other resources? Can anyone confirm this, and what the usual cycle might be?
Finally, could anyone please point me in the direction of some high quality meat to harvest? Thanks a lot!
Sneak,
It's all trial and error my friend. The OQ levels on hide/bone/meat shift on the same schedule as the resourcse do.
There's really no creature that gives good or better meat than another - you've got to kill a critter, check the OQ. If it's good, take the rest of them out and farm the lair. If it's bad, destroy it and go on to another group.
Once you find good quality meat, try and stick with killing those critters for a long as possible to build up a good supply. I found an area filled with krevols giving me 928 quality hides, so I grabbed as many asI could before they went bye bye.

Ok thanks for the replies. Before I really started paying mind to OQ, I did not notice that the harvested resources changed with the other resource cycles. I'll just do the old trial and error thing.
Just a couple days ago, those humbaba we're yielding 952 oq meat. I was dumb for not taking all I could get at the time, I did not know the next day it would 'shift'. ![]()
Sneak,
Chalk it up to experience.

No doubt, like me trying to solo that Humbaba the other night. It was not a pretty sight I can tell you that.

a long time ago like a month or something I was killing mountain squills and harvested their high 994 OQ hide. I found a small spawn of about8 mountain squills and soloed all of them one by one by using the "run into the house and hide" technique. after I killed all of them off I went to find more and did. I pretty much went mountain squill hunting for the rest of the day and got 1551 units of ....um Auli--------- hide. heh forgot the name but it was leathery. dont know about the hide now though......

Lately I've been hunting perloks on lok and the meat is PE 970 PE, and 860 OQ. If you find doctors who know what good quality is, you should easily be able to get 7-10 cr/unit with this stuff. A lot of people will only want to give you 3cr/unit because they think that is standard price for all meat. The best thing that I have done is to develop a relationship with several people who always pay for the best, and give them first crack at it. Sometimes it's good to give out a free sample of 50 units, just so people can see what OQ and PE can do for their stim packs. I've had offers to pay my way to Endor and back in order to make a delivery. The hard part is to stay on top of resource shifts, finding a new animal that has good stats can take a while.
Mabey as scouts, we should share all the information we have when a resource shift occurs. This would help us narrow down whatcurrently has the best harvest and resource stats,so we can make monkeys faster. ![]()
