Also after the "diversity thing" you 'll need higher dps guns
But with this evade dont go to CP. sorry.

Totally agree on this. Get your evade up to at least level 20 before going.

The Hl6 is not powerful enough ... try an hl 14 or x1

Yes u can do an aurli with hl6 but any soldier will kill u and any kreltin old will kill u.

Don't think u can do a mob at a time because this is not possible on cp because of the current way the hunting goes up there u will die very often due to mob "migration".

mmm maybe i should wait till ive maxed the HL 8 that will give me better dps and wait till i get abit more evade

Ok

i Have full ghost Male +5b's
Ek 2600
HL 6 +e amp 14
LR48 with e amp 15

122HP
lvl 14 evader

any advice would be great.

Cheers.

Fine to go there for an few hours trip, best teamed with at least 2 more friends and have some fun (or annoyance, depends).

If you seriously want to stay there for an while and hunt tho, well, with 174HP, lvl 36 evader and maxed UR125 i still don't feel really comfortable, even in dome 1 and 2, even with "carefull" hunting (as far as the crazy AI allows it).

But then again i am an coward anyway when it comes to bigger mobs. I see quite some lesser skilled people doing fine, especially teamed.

In generall i would recommend at least:

Gremlin+5B (D1 and D2 have kreltins mixed with aurlis)
150 HP
lvl 25 Evader
ek2600, better maxed ur125
willingness to lose 1 to 2k peds on an bad fullday hunt in D1/D2

Last point is most important, CP has some great loots, big esis, lot's of markup... most times, sometimes nothing worth to mention after 5k ped of ammo!

A bit too much emphasis on DPS really. You dont NEED alot of dps on CP to get decent returns. The only real need for DPS is to kill mobs faster to avoid decay and dying. Im pretty sure i could easily solo CP with only a P5a and get decent returns. But i do agree evade is a big factor, and maybe 14 isnt enough for more than 1 mob... but 1 mob at a time with ghost and 5B i see no problem at all. Try teaming up tho, itll greatly improve your chanses of survival.

You're ok as long as you only have 1 mob at you..
Problem is, 1 mob at the time doesnt exist on CP.
You'll constanly have 2-3 mobs at you.

So, i would skill up some more evade..
I would also max out the HL8 before going up there..

Otherwise i can only say.. its fun like hell up there
And the skills are so much faster than down on calypso.

If you go up with one of your friends then dome 4 will not be a problem. I have just started hunting again and havnt bought my skills back yet. I have 100hp and about lvl 6 evader with ghost and 8A and in a team of 2 its no problem, the only time I die is when I get critted. Although I do have quite decent weaponry

May i ask how often you get critted in dome 4 and lvl 6 evader, in average, every 3 minutes, every half hour, every hour? Serious question.

Trust me, if you keep using E-Amps you'll be wishing you had spent the extra peds for the A amps. Well worth the cost
I'd rather use an un-amped gun than use E-Amps.

The idea is to compensate the low hp and evade with dps ... that is why i said hl14 or x1

Maybe twice every 30 mins, sometimes 3 times. To be honest, they hit me just as much as when I was lvl 26 evader, the difference then was that I had about 150 hp and could heal for about 80. Evade doesnt make much difference with mobs like these to be honest unless you have got an insane amount of it like lvl 60 or somet. Evade is just completely useless on Hogglo for example. The people I was hunting with who were lvl 20 or so were dying just as often as me and they have more hp than me.
