Weaponsmith Archive

Having finally reached master staus the other day, after 5-6 weeks of point and click nonsense grinding and steel harvesting, I finally am getting down to the task of actually making weaponry.

My server (Tarquinas) has riflemen crying on our shoulders about lack of T-21s, in this case due to a lack of Gallinorian gems. In the last 3weeks we have had 2 separate spawns of semi-decent Alantium ore, but no gems.

Further I have not seen (at least since my early n00b surveying days) the famous Ostrine carb ore and stockpiled amounts of itrecently sold for ridiculous amounts after our first spawn of so-so Diatium copper. The other day while on a run I decided to check gas in the area and found 80% of nice Irolunn gas, so I now have all constituent parts for the Adv. BPH, except the ostrine.

This stuff cannot come soon enough for me, as I bore of the standard BPH and have seen other masters fine results from the use of the advanced model. T-21s are simply not available, and that may remain the case; if I were a rifleman I'd be pretty sore, but when we get the gems that will change overnight.

So what are you and your server's smiths currently hoping to see pop up on your mineral scanner these days...?

We have been waiting for Ostrine forever on Naritus now.

We just got hit in the last 3-4 weeks with Phrik that rivals any other metal, Duralloy Steel that has 980+ in SR and UT, some 994 OQ Dolovite, some Kammris that is great for weapons, etc......

So basically we have all the fine metals needed to make guns at the moment but there are only a few smiths with any Ostrine to speak of. One (Zina) has upwards of 100K but I am guessing no one else has more than 5K of it (and only 2-3 are like that).

When Ostrine finally does hit Naritus, the Heavy Min Harvesters are going to be out in force I am sure.

We just got some Ostrine last week on Corbantis, but we've been waiting over 3 months for Diatium copper.

Slim Vargo, Corbantis

Green Diamond Gems and Phrik Aluminum. Codoan Copper as well.

**edit** Gallinorian Rainbow Gems...

That is reall about it, we have lots of other incredible stuff, bu no gems

I am glad picked Radiant though. We have the #2 and #3 coppers in the whole game for OQ/Cond Combos...

On Wanderhome:

• Crism Siliclastic Ore


• Irolunn Reactive Gas (spelling)


• Skevon Reactive Gas (for armorsmith)


• Colat Iron (for armorsmith)


• Just got Kiirium Steel for the first time in over 100 days.


• There are others I just can't remember them right now

I've asked about this many times on the forums but have received absolutely no response. My concern is that some resources might not EVER come up on a particular server.

Diaitium hasn't spawned for a bit, the last remaining stockpiles are going for incredible prices.

Ryll Gemstone, the T21 Rainbow gems etc.

Finally got a new spawn of Axidite... but it's horrid. OQ/Cond both sub 200.

For me (on Lowca)it is Ostrine Carbonite Ore and Diatium Copper. I should make Master Weaponsmith by the weekend and I have some friends that would love to get some T21s but I just don't have the resources yet. One of my friends can supply me with a handful of Ostrine but he doesn't have much.

Some of the other stuff (like the Alantium) could be better but I will work with what I have at this point.

On Ahazi, no rainbow gems for T-21's yet on the server. Stuff we've been waiting 3 month for since the last spawn:

Diatium Copper

Ryll Armouphous Gemstone

Those two are currently going for 500cpu+
