Today's word is "Recuperate", which is basically a fancy way of saying "recover".
*this is in fact a lie, a warning to never believe anything you see on the internet
I had to reschedule my trip to the Eve gate, but I'll get there eventually
As I mentioned last year (oh, the wit, the unbearable wit!), I'm relocating to a new home in a secret location in k-space. Following that logic, I really needed to get all my random loot, ships, minerals and such over from my old newbie stomping grounds. I could have asked a friend to haul it for me, or hired a shipping company, but it can't hurt to have my own industrial ship, can it? Also I have a cargo delivery storyline mission requiring 4500m3 of whatever carried across 3 high-sec systems. STOP WASTING MY TIME, AGENTS! I'm supposed to be the one who wastes that time!
Enter Belly Beluga the Bestower! |
I could just have used this handy dandy online tool, but doing my own calculations just feels more rewarding. It's not strictly playing the game, but it is much more than metagaming.
I'm glad I'm not in high-school anymore, else anyone who knew me saw this, I'd never live down the nerdliness (funfact: Google corrects "nerdliness" as "lordliness") |
It takes me around two hours to build the Bestower, so I do a little mining mission for my standing to recuperate from that security mission fiasco.
When the mission ore is brought back, Belly Beluga the Bestower is barely born and backended into bringing barrelfuls of boring brave bravado...okay abort the alliteration here.
tl;dr I take indy ship and carry shit from [location censored] to [location censored].
I quickly wrap hauling some ditanium bars for the storyline mission, and then moving all my stuff. In only two trips, I have everything except some unrefined ores brought home. Ah, now isn't this nice?
Well, it would be a lot nicer if I could organise my station inventory somehow, a long asked-for feature that CCP turns a blind ear and a deaf eye to. But I can just barely fit a station container in Belly Beluga's 10000m3 hold with 4 cargo expanders equipped. I find some for sale at way below the normal rate, mentally scan for scams and buy all three. I carry one to my new home, briefly chuckle at the irony of transporting an empty container in a freighter, and presto, all my salvaged junk is now neatly organised in a makeshift station "folder".
The irony... |
Reprocess or sell? I'd rather not think about it and just let it rot. |
A productive day overall.
Lovely update, Ill try and recuperate (harr harr) and tell something myself.
ReplyDeleteJust moved to nullsec and mined 1 batch (not one cargo hold, one cycle on my strip miners) before there came an evil person and killed me. So I have to wait for the alliance to camp all the gates so I can mine in peace :P
