Miss Lioness Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Proud to be the owner of a level 10 engineer Is he on the "Enterprise", by any chance? :unsure: And as only Engineer, he must be Chief Engineer? Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?~ Marianne Williamson For account help/issues, please follow this link: Account Help.

Thai_tong Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 unfortunately you don't get engineers in the crew for hire once you have gotten past a certain stage in pop. I've been trying for 2 months to get another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squakus Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The crew lodgings (speed) has no effect? As the size of an explosion increases, the number of social situations it is incapabale of solving approaches zero. Ensure you are not a social situation.

Saradomin_Mage Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I think I've seen an engineer recently, same with some Arc crew like shopkeeper/first mate Might just be my really bad luck though :P In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

Thai_tong Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The crew lodgings (speed) has no effect?It says better quality speed crew so I thought that would only make my chances slimmer. @Sara the only arc crew I have seen is the first mate and I saw him 3 times in 2 months. Because the first mate is kind of unique I think it's the only 1 which can appear and I think you imagined seeing an engineer with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quyneax Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm pretty sure you can still get engineers, the chance is just really low, lower than oxheads, perhaps even lower than oxheads with the right flavour text.

Wkw Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 unfortunately you don't get engineers in the crew for hire once you have gotten past a certain stage in pop. I've been trying for 2 months to get another.Incorrect. I got two engineers the past week during my daily rolls. I considered hireing them, but I don't even have full ports armor so no to that.

Huge Noob Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Finally hit that mark Wow, that's a lot of resources. :shock: Hopefully I'll have that one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherMatt Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Finally hit that mark Curious, is there any particular reason you're skipping non-steel/jade voyages? For reference, here's where I'm at: I think having a big mix of regular resources will work out best for the eventual port expansion. I doubt any port buildings/anything new will only take steel, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel555555 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 If your looking for certain crew if you change what region you're visiting does that increases chances at all of getting certain crew? Like jade merchants and jods instead of just staying in steel region and getting mostly steel crew? [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies.

chenw Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Curious, is there any particular reason you're skipping non-steel/jade voyages? I skipped the lower ones because my work schedule only allows me to send two rounds of ships a day, and if i send for anything lower than jade, i'd be unable to send out another steel in time for the second round (my first and second is more or less 9-10h apart from each other). Plus, I think if you fail a voyage and the game took resources from lower resource based on a ratio, which meant that you could waste several voyages by just failing one, therefore, I skipped them. Plus i was only really interested in getting steel. 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

Plus i was only really interested in getting steel. Fair enough. Sounds like you might build up some other resources if your schedule allowed for it. As far as failing voyages go, I don't think losing resources is to be worried about. Sure, the occasional three digit loss of bamboo hurts (I'm lucky to get more than one bamboo voyage per week, and I almost never get it stocked by the black marketeer so one failure could easily cost me a week+) but it's rare enough to be essentially ignored IMO.
