Unless I'm mistaken, the hats are on the marketplace and have been for a week.

[Strod]

Well your right, the Hat's are.



The Headgear's are not.

If you want to pay 100 Mill for something that takes less than 45 mins to farm for, be my guest.

There was another for 25m, that seems a far more reasonable price to avoid the constant ganking, but if you like that sort of thing be my guest.

[Tbone]

It takes a LOT less time to farm 80 codes than it does 25 mil.

Just got one on the marketplace for 10m, and didn't have to get hacked/knifed/sniped doing it /shrug

[Strod]

We'll you don't get attacked as you would think. Sure some do but alot of have respect for the farm. Besides, 10 Mill is still way to much for the Hat, IMO though.

you should have given me 10mil  i would have farmed you one heh

For future reference I want EVERYONE to consider this OFFICIAL policy on the farming of the corrupt.  

If you are coming in to spawn a wasteland corrupt to help others out but not to get the decaying code then you need to make sure you have SIM loaded and at a minimum repair RSI 1.0  

It is your responsibility to create your SIM and fish/gather/get (whatever term you want to use) your spawns out from by the big Wasteland Corrupt.  This should be easy if you can target them.  If you can't target them create your SIM jump up on a side building and try from there.... REMEMBER you have the key for target next enemy, use it.

If you are coming in to spawn a wasteland corrupt and to be on a team to collect the decaying code.  You must have a SIM loaded and at a minimum repair RSI 1.0

As above it is your responsibility to get your spawns out.  Until you have Spawned a Wasteland Corrupt and fished out your spawns do not expect to be invited to the team.  Common courtesy for farming would be to get your spawns coming down before joining the team.

I know there will be times when it is next to impossible to get those damn spawns down, and it can be frustrating as hell.  What we need to remember is we all need to work together at helping each other out as much as possible, but please common courtesy is to get your spawns coming down before you get on a team, so don't get upset if you don't get an invite until such time....

My suggestion is before you ask for an invite ask for help on getting those spawns flowing.

And as always... Play nice

That is all

Well almost all... Here is the afk macro I use in case you need to take off while helping others.

Put Repair RSI 1.0 in sloe 1, 1 and make sure slot 2, 1 is clear...
Type this

/macro AFK /target "name of self"; /use 1, 1; /pause 300; /use 2, 1  

All you have to do then is hit the AFK macro button and it'll loop with heals for yourself.  If you want the heals to be faster make the time shorter 300=30 seconds and seems to work for me.

So, what do you suggest we do when, we spawn a Wasteland, attempt o get our spawns out and CAN NOT, and they when we ask for help, we get told no?

When you do everything you can and fail, then ask for a little hep and get told no, it is unfair for those trying to farm.

[Broin]

Ok well, when you try to get your spawns out and they will not aggro. When you are UNable to get them out at all and the Hacker at that times WILL NOT help you get them out. What then? It is damn unfair to spawn a Wasteland to help and e helped in farming ad you get told a fing no.

If your spawns are not agroing you then chances are they are not your spawns or you are bugged.  This has happened to me and if you are bugged you are just screwed for 45 min.  

If the hacker there has 3-4 people that are pulling spawns then that is 6-8 NPC's coming at various times that he has to kill in a reasonbale amount of time to keep the others alive.  If he goes up and tries to kill your spawns (which will put him in range of the lvl 100 wasteland corrupt that do 3/4 of your health damage and remember there are probably 3-4 of them up there) and dies then chances are the other 3-4 people are going to die as a result and now everyone has to repull the spawns out.

In fact this very thing has happened on several occasions to me when I was hacking.  It becomes a vicious cycle of trying to get people's spawns free and trying to keep them alive.  That's why I'm stressing it is the indivduals responsibility, and why you need to have SIM loaded.

Now, if everyone has SIM loaded then everyone who is there can create a SIM and send it up at the reluctant Spawn if that doesn't work then yeah your screwed.

Well, that is the hacker's perogative. If the hacker drops what he's doing to brave the dangers of the Wastelands to try to kill your spawns and dies in the process, the whole thing goes to shit. Either everyone else dies or they have to jump away and then EVERYONE has to fish out their spawns again and no one benefits. The right thing to do is to aggro your own spawns. If you are having trouble, better for you to risk dying by running in after your sim to try to aggro it out rather than screwing everyone else up by making the hacker do it.

Without spawns you aren't doing your share and therefore it is completely fair if you are not allowed on the team. Spawning the Wasteland is the easy part of just the tiny bit you have to do on your part to help the system go smoothly. I've had times where the Wasteland spawned on me in the wrong place. What did I do? I just had to wait out the 45 minutes before I could start farming with everyone else. Maybe it sucks but the Wasteland is my responsibility and it's only fair. Same goes for if you are afk and your Wasteland disappears - you should be booted from the team until you come back and spawn your Wasteland again. As a courtesy, we usually leave people on the team if their spawns disappear and they immediately go to get another one.

Well, I'm done with the situation. I will stick to solo.

Thanks for the pointers Broin and Tbone.
