[HEADING=1]Greetings Colonists,[/HEADING]

[B]This weekend starting from Saturday 0:00 UTC until Monday 0:00 UTC, you have a significantly higher chance to gain Effect over Time skill gain buffs that will last longer and have stronger effects.

The perfect opportunity to get back on the grind and skill up that profession you’ve been putting off training[/B]!

Use Steam to get an automatic reminder when the event starts and see all Entropia Universe News.

Nice :smiley:

Nice! :slight_smile:

Curious to see what significantly will mean. How was it in the past?

Nice!

Q. Is it universe wide or caly only ?

Universe Wide.

will this stack with exp pills or still broken ?

Don’t we have bigger fish to fry at the minute with the state of the game?

Yes, but who can fry what?
I think it’s a nice initiative. As mentioned, we get to test what the word ‘significantly’ means, following on from such gems as ‘soon’ etc…
In the past, I’d guess it’s been about one per hour of logon time, usually for about 5 mins, but sometimes up to around 20 mins.

What fish?

How is it wrong to give players incentive to play?

JBK will be pissed when everyone starts farming drill bots

If you’re going to try to push people to cycle more, how about revamp what’s in our loot. Even with a 97-98% TT return there is still not enough markup in the loot to come out ahead. No reason to have 15 year old guns in the loot. Also why add “interesting loot” to only event mobs? Why does it take 750k+ cycled to see an esi from a mid level mob? I have so many questions but don’t wanna sound like a broken record. Do better. We don’t wanna see Entropia die, and im sure you don’t either.

Perfect timing to devaluate the skill system a bit more and make the term the used to promote “invest in your avatar” a bit more worthless.
Bring everything close to zero value, thanks.

There has been two skill events that I know of. Before Cryengine. One was 2x skill, the other was 3x. I believe both lasted a week the 3x skill event was combined with a robot attack where you could loot a rare item to be traded for PotE

The incentive we need is to fix the fucking game which is absolute crap at the minute, constant crashes and many more issues. Then we get to fixing the loot and events to bring back MU and interest of players. Then we bring more players in to make it great again. And only after that we offer shitty weekend increase skill bonus incentives for players to enjoy, once the bigger fish have been fried. You must be new here, please have another look, or are you blind?

Bonus is always welcome ?!

I am sorry your 486 can’t handle that game. I got a shitty laptop and use mobile internet yet have to see these constant crashes.

So you propose until game is optimized for a SNES and someone magically donate hundred million dollars to a MU fund nothing else should happen?
