Simply put, regular riflebarrels take 46 steel and advanced ones take 50 Quadranium steel and 26 AxiditeIron..


Am i bugged or just Dev-shagged when im getting 92 xp for advanced ones and 94 xp for regular ones in practise mode.


Its **edit** like this that is making me contemplating dropping the game after 27 proffs (BH including)

Writing a flame when youclearly have no understanding of the matter at hand is either very ballsy or just very stupid... with your comment the latter is the more probable alternative...

If you can't find the skevon and the hydron-3 you need to grind out weaponsmith easily, then you're going to have to do WS the way we all did it - Projectile Rifle Barrels.


It's not that bad, I did it all the way from 0/1/0/0 to master.

Yep.. and without Macros or 3rd party clicking programs too.... oh.. and you could not grind on any of the starter planets because they were too laggy. At least back then.. we had the factory to help grind xp.. before it was nerfed in the first publish. Welcome to my world!

Thnx guys for the input.


Idid search for the resources for the heavy warhead but it was a little likethe famousneedle inthe haystack.. so i started out with the intent of doing riflebarrels from 0100 to master.. when i hit 0400 i saw that Advanced riflebarrels used 50 Quadranium steel and 26 Axidite iron. With proper craft grind rules you have a (2 : 1 xp ratio) per resource unit.So i thought that would speed up things. Spent about 2 hours locating the Axidite iron and started making the advanced riflebarrels and saw that with advanced ones u have a (1.2 : 1 xp ratio) per resource unit.


with standard rules:


Rifle barrels: 31 + 15 steel = 92 xp (nonpractise mode)


Advanced Rifle Barrels 50 steel + 26 iron = 152 xp (nonpractise mode)



The post i started last night was with a little too much aggression VS. the devs but i was kinda pissed when the results started showing.


Has any1 gotten a reply from the devs bef4concerning the deviation from standard grind ruleswhen it comes to Advanced rifle barrels?

Hehe I remember having to delete every single one of those damn barrels I crafted my last box was glorious because the practice option was introduced but wouldn't you know no sooner do I master than a smart chappy pulls a magical practice macro out of thin air ah well least I have a horror story to scare the kiddies with
