warmastermage Report post Posted October 23, 2005 I want to say that one day i was harvesting silver and making HEs and i had like 5 event free runs but on the next run almost all my pickaxes broke. Then i enjoyed some more runs and then on the next run mother nature attacked me more times than i can count and sent tons of cavern walls on me then i enjoyed more runs and then queen of nature blessed me twice in a minute why are all these event so packed together? They should be spread out evenly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should be spread out evenly. 212640[/snapback] Events are random. Sometimes they are VERY spread apart, other times they are packed together. That is the nature of ranomization and probability.

Merrick Report post Posted October 23, 2005 (edited) I was blessed by the Queen of Nature 4 times in a row (nothing bad inbetween) the other day...I think it was like 1750 exp in about 5 minutes *plus xp from happy hour on top of that (diamonds)* Prolly never...ever happen again. But, it was cool while it lasted. Edit because my typing is so great Edited October 23, 2005 by Merrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minardus Report post Posted October 24, 2005 Yesterday a cave wall hit me for 33 hp. That's a LOT !!!! I only have a max hp of 40, so it's possible to die if you get a 2nd event while harvesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was painful 212919[/snapback] you can only get hit by a cavern wall while harvesting ores and minerals like iron silver titanium rubies diamonds emeralds quartzes and saphires you can't get hit by one on veggies lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to think it didn't, but I've experienced significantly lower damage from cave wall drops when wearing armour, but I thought it was just coincidence.

Arnieman Report post Posted October 26, 2005 there is one disadvantage to gearing up like that - wastes EMU for carrying. A moon med is good, though - you lose 1 EMU, and in return, you get damage from walls reduced from 40 to about 25, I think - could still be as high as 30.
