Not that much to be honest, though I have spent bits and pieces on equipment and on credits, managed to trans one skill and get useful stuff in a few other skills.

anyway

45 and 0

5788

Wait, you managed to trans a skill from that? Wow.
Aiakon2006-11-25 12:41:52
How many hours?
Gandal2006-11-25 14:44:40
Trans a skill? Isn't that, like, 200 credits (with the credit bonus), which is 1,000,000 gold at market price? If you have 5788 rats, that means that you got about 172.8 gold per rat...plz clarify

Don't forget bound credits and lessons from gaining levels. Still kinda sketchy... maybe Alyssandra didn't mean 4700 rats from level 1, but rather from some other one? For example from level 40. It probably takes over 1000 rats to gain a level at 50s, and 100.000 at 80s.

Damn!

Im tempted to make alt for rats hunting too. blink.gif

Ya, I came up with that too, I got something like 5788 rats(even if they were all the hardest) would have only been able to buy 45 credits at 4500 per credit(which is lower then they sell for anyway), which would have been 382 lessons. 382 lessons isn't even enough to make the gap between mythical and trans that you'd be left with if you combined all the bound credits and lessons gained by levels.

I smell something fishy.

Probably stopped counting somewhere.

Probably a guild credits sale...

That makes more sense, but that only increases it to 860 lessons (assuming 2000 per credit, and still assuming that every single rat killed was a black rat). Does a person have 900 lessons to use by lvl 42? blink.gif
Unknown2006-11-27 09:32:03
To clarify I also bought 100 credits to actually get somewhere useful in my skill first. And yes cheap guild credits help as well. And it is from 1 to 45 that I have been going. I only just transed the skill, the bonus credits for level 45 were what got me the last few lessons I needed.

A lot.... a little over 2 days in game I think (which usually I could be level 70 by from normal bashing), will need to double check later.

initial lessons = 150
1-45 levels = 220
1-45 neocreds = 110
player appreciation = 120
100 credits (in sale so 120) = 720
Bonus for binding 120 = 300

Total not from credit market = 1620

See its not actually as far as you think. Means I have bought about 50-60 credits (including the other bits and pieces in no trans skills) from market/guild sales

Not bad at all! Just wait until you get closer to level 75-80, though. Rats are worth practically nothing, I got bored hunting tons of them for 1%.

Though, with that thought in mind, this would be easy enough for us to figure out without you ratting all the way to 100. We just need a person of every level to see how many rats it takes to get 1%, then we can estimate how many it would take to get to 100. Something tells me that at this rate, you'll still be ratting five years from now when everyone else in the Basin is already a demigod.

Pssh I can handle it. In Achaea I ratted from 60 to 85.

WTF is a Blackrat?

This is the second stupidly compounded word i've seen in the past ten minutes. wacko.gif

Blackrat - a black rat. Biggest/most powerful rat, I believe. Also gives the best experience/gold per kill of any rat.
