Just out of curiosity, does anyone have any things that they found by sheer accident, which turned out to be something you really wanted? I'm bringing this up because I found a Viarosso 3 apartment, Which happened to be what I've been saving up for for ages. This wasn't one of those event drops, I think it was someone leaving. It's also in a excellent place - Just coming up from the subway - And the cabinets were crammed full of food, and there was even a Cityadmin clan key, which I promptly threw into P1 and was snagged by Vampire222. Anyone got any cool things that they just found lying around?

Not anything special like a CS or something, but:
- tech part near plaza 1 gogo
- two viperking vests in the middle of nowhere in the desert
- liberator someone was throwing from the medicare roof
- some MB apartment at the same occasion
- 4 slot tangent gatlin cannon from a belt I hacked
- 4 slot tagent freezer cannon from another belt I hacked
- the two weapons mentioned above + a 3 slots liberator duped due to server bugs

Probably got some more cool stuff, but that's all I can remember.

I'm very unlucky and never find anything anywhere. Damnit!

WAIT! Actually! This is still my most vivid memory of beta 4. Oh man, I grin just thinking of it. Fucking good times my friends.

Ok, it's like my...3rd? 4th? day of being in beta 4. It was the first week of beta 4 so I didn't know what to expect at all. Here I am, just this total complete noob pistol/rifle/whatever else i had points invested into spy wandering through plaza 1. Well you see, back in those days, Yo's in plaza 1 was the "Medicare" today. All business was conducted in front of there.

So I'm strolling, and just out of curiosity I go up to he garbage can in front of Yo's and look inside of it. To my absolute thrilled amazement there's a 2 slotter Ryker laser pistol (Or whatever that low end 15 or something dex one is, or that used to be the req on it atleast). You don't even know how insanely amazed I was! I couldn't figure out how I could use it or why I couldn't use it so I gave it to a friend I had back then and he fuckin' pwned those spiders in the OZ with it while I tagged along with my nailgun. Ahhh shit such fun times.

28-08-03, 07:43
A long time ago back in the E.O.B days me and nightwing had been hunting and powerlvling for about a week or two. Well we took all of our stuff from the graves, warbots, chaos queen, shaman, and crystal caves. And dumped them out in plaza 1 for all the noobs to fight over. If i had to guess i would say it was about 30-50 VK armors, 50 or more rares, 4 or 5 sets of bat queen imps, and probably 10-20 flame avalanche's

28-08-03, 07:45
Found a 2 alot PE in the CRP caves once.... was just lying there...

The whole group had moved on and i was on my way out so it had to be picked up :)

How does one totally forget about the 2 slot PE he finds on the ground! =O

Birkoff
28-08-03, 07:52
I thought that also... i gave it to a friend who needed a PE n e way.... i don't know who has it now b/c they rerolled....

Wish more people were like that jsut before i came aroudn the corner :)

Not really a lucky find, but a lucky thing happened to me about a week ago.

I was walking past some Y-Reps stealthed and my stealth wore off. Doh! I died and my Special Forces fell out. It was previously 5/120 and falling out SHOULD have wrecked it, but it didnt!

I reclaimed my backpack and there it was, at full, unscratched, 120/120 quality!

Luckiest bug I ever had w00t!

28-08-03, 22:52
A few days after I started playing on Uranus (back in January) I was running past the boxes in Plaza 3 near the HEW & GoGo and for some inexplicable reason decided to check them. I found 8 unidentified rare parts inside. The parts turned out to be pieces of a Cursed Soul, Pain Easer, Doom Beamer, among others.

At some point I also found a Speedbike, TG apartment (empty tho - but I considered it nifty still), and a STORM Laser. I also found a "TL150" Hacking Tool along with quality 120/120 TL150 Repair and Remote Repair Tools laying on the ground in Via Rosso 2. The TL150 tool requires TL120 skill to operate I think.

Back in Beta 4 I had even more luck. A friend and I were talking about how freaky it'd be playing on Neptune (this was after they shutdown the Pluto Beta) having to start from scratch. So I'm roaming through Pepper Park 3 scouring boxes for recyclable junk and I come across someone's stash of cash cubes totaling 17 million credits. So much for having to start from scratch :D But then they wiped the server like a week after that so.. easy come easy go :lol:

19-11-03, 21:49
:lol: Damn, I used to put stuff in boxes all the time, until a friend and I start sharing accounts, so now I just log both accounts and transfer my stuff between our characters.

I used to store tech parts in large amounts in boxes so I could switch to a research to research them. Thankfully I never lost them to some fucker randomly checking boxes. I've also used boxes in the past to trade rare weapons and implants between my alts. Reading here how an alarming number of people check boxes, seems I've been lucky.

Worst and only thing I ever lost was a stack of 140 8mm uranium uzi clips that my monk cloned for my noob PE. I was using boxes at Yo's (where aforementioned rare weapons and chips have been traded in the past) to transfer the ammo when some PA spy, being a complete nooblet with an LE in, came by and started checking boxes. I DMed him asking if he had taken them (I knew he did), and he ignored me. Instead just hovered around the Yo's periodically checking boxes waiting for me to put stuff in there. Fag. If only we had writeable data cubes, I would have written some kind of message to piss him off, then put it in a box for him to find. :D Anyways, if he ever takes his LE out he's KOS until he returns my damn ammo! It's a damn good thing it was cloned and not bought, so no wasted money. Hopefully I tradeskill for him, because then I will demand not a tip, but a payment of 140 clips of 8mm uranium uzi ammo. :lol:

I won't start hacking belts but from now on I will check boxes occasionally perhaps I'll get lucky too one day

I understand this is problem in multichar servers but comoon people, go to your apartments, drop stuff to GROUND there (In apartments, stuff can be on ground for weeks) and pick it up. Its 99.95% secure transfer compared to "lucky found @ box" style. Or you can fire up 2 clients and log 2 chars on .. no wait, you can do that only in Pluto/Jupiter :D :lol: :lol: :angel:

it was in an op fight, some [insert bad words here] thought he was god and started attacking us with a doombeamer... unlucky for him he hitted the yo fools to so his SL dropped.... my uberdroner (baabahahahahmuhahahah :rolleyes:) killed him and i found: doombeamer 3 slot, marine cpu (how the fuck did that got there O_o), CS 2 slot, exp foot, gatlin 3 slot.
i was happy..

21-11-03, 14:05
Hacked a load of good stuff from belts at MB in my time, alot of Doombeamers, I'm guessing people had their CSs in their safe slots.

Was given 1.7 mil my a runner on satrun for helping to hunt warbots, it was fun cause we died alot and got pk'd :D

Found rare parts and vasious nice implants in crates all over the wastelands, like someone said I guess people must of been overloaded or though to store the stuff their and then got killed.

Heh, I've had pretty nice findings lately ;)

couple of WB's with 4 tech parts!
a doomreaper with 5 tech parts!!! I nearly felt out of my chair when I saw it!

and the best....two filter heart's 2 from a terror leaper - it's pretty hard to get hands on one and to get two is ONOZ!!!!

loads of rares in boxes, I transfer a lot of stuff between my chars, so I know the risk, but never lost anything, maybe pure luck ;)
