How to make money in Phoenix
« on: May 16, 2016, 09:09:42 AM »

I was not 100% efficient as you can see in the video - but that's a nice tidy sum!

Yes a very nice haul there. Nice haul indeed.

I don't think luck has much to do with it. Honestly You can go to core and recreate this result, easily.

The only way luck comes into this is Matthew being fortunate enough to not spawn in on top of mobs for a nice insta death.

Keep an eye out for enemy players, Know your path, and be ready to run/fight npcs.

NICE !
i was thinking about making video like that, speeded up and with talking about efficient scavenging but seems like its not even needed because someone was faster  ;D

my few cents..

most important thing when scavenging is proper ROUTE
connecting your or nearby gate with alot of containers and buildings close together, hotspots and exiting by sewers
people which scavenge randomly through core are very inefficient
you have to look a bit on map and find some route by yourself, best dont share it with anyone otherwise you might find it often empty or you may get killed

- avoid all npcs fights, its just waste of time = waste of money, this few points of experience wont give you anything and their weapons are usually in very bad quality
- 10 ST, strong back, buffout is must have for max carry weight, rest of build doesnt really matter, just something with decent fov and survivability
- caps can be exchanged by barter with ammo or armor merchant to faction currency
- loot only perfect quality weapons/armor, relics (80 each), leadership modules (400 each) and some resources which are worth it
- you can science non prefect quality weapons for some science points in hallf of fame ( ;D), resources which you can either keep or also sell.. alloys, metal parts and electronic parts are worth 20 caps each when selling ! (you can science without workbench in everywhere core now)
- by effective scavenging you can make about 20-30k caps per hour

Glad you like it guys.

I just wanted all players to know that it is easy to be competitive in AoP with little effort. 

Nice tips powerplay! Thanks.

It is definitely rewarding and makes PvP much more fun as you remain competitive.

Maybe its rewarding but is it fun ?

Running alone in the core scavenging for resources and evading npcs is fun ? Maybe for some, but I still don't like the idea of 1 guy going naked to the core and bringing back with him a military warehouse. The core normally is a battlefield for the factions , not for poor naked guys running around looting containers.

Well, running around the core, wasting NPCs and some loners from time to time can be fun too. At least for me it was.
