I play. I haven't been on too much recently due to work, however.

I am John Cale, a 13th level Engineer. I was an 18th level fireman, but I realized I could do better over time as an engineer, doctor, or cook.

So far, I am doing good. I have all Mastercraft weapons and Mastercrafted Armor-- whatever that is that is above Flak Jacket.

I am melee based-- my primary weapon is a Sabre, and I'll get a Katana and Grinder Chainsaw as soon as I can use them.

I haven't used any firearms yet. I make too much money selling bullets to use up the ones that I get. I can kill just as fast with my sword even though I have to get closer to them and risk getting swarmed.

I'll probably start working up my Shotgun skill once I get Melee up to 100.


Maybe I'll see you around. I'll drop my price to $1 on repairing your armor if I am on.

Taliv,

Nah... I haven't spent a nickle of real money on the game.

I got lucky on a few drops and loot pick-ups. I have a good loot path that gets me right up to Death Row. I die a lot though.

However, each loot run nets me about $2,000 even with me scraping most of what I get for the cheap, fast cash.

I bought my saber for $5000 and I sold my Mastercraft Flak Jacket for about $4000 to buy the next Mastercraft Armor for about $14,000

I think I have around $28,000 in the bank right now.


The key to money it to get off the first 2 screens. I go North until I can't go North any more and then start heading East.

The key is to not kill any more than you have to on a loot run. If you start killing you get massive aggro. I only worry about killing when I have to, or when I am on a experience run.


What I would do is start making runs as soon as I could into those screens off the newbie screens. Start looting every body and object you can. If you die at low levels it is no big deal. Later, it bites.

I started moving out when I got to level 3. What you want to do is get rid of that pen knife as soon as possible. I swapped it out in this order:

pen knife
MC chef knife that I looted
MC Baseball bat that I looted
MC Nail Bat that I looted
Trench Knife that I bought for $1,000 (LOVE the Trench knife)
Machete that I bought for $2000 (Over-rated compared to Trench knife)
Saber that I bought for $5,000


My secondary weapons are a Mastercraft Combat Knife and a Mastercraft Nail Bat. I have them for the stats that they give.


That's what happens when you used to be an Everquest powergaming junkie.

Oh, I forgot one other tip....

If you are on a loot run, or if you are getting swarmed, learn to run like a Meth-Head drinking Red Bull. Putting points into Agility is supposed to help. I think mine is around 50 now.

This thread made me remember how much work I have to do.


Exactly. I haven't played much since my school year started again. Summers off lend to more time for ... well nothing.

I've been slacking on my gameplay on dead frontier for a bit, I have a level 17 police officer with the user id candigrrl, we should all go on a run sometime ^_^. I know they have a clan ARFcom there as well.
