Anyone else notice HCl is exploding in value? Normally I'd say it's due to it no longer being buyable but the spike is much more recent. Are people just moving on from the burglary crimes where HCl is normally found to disposal crimes which use up HCl?

 

Thoughts?

I've noticed that last few days there's been a lot of bodies to dissolve in disposal.

 

Might just be a surge in demand due to all the bodies turning up

penguingeneral [314567]

I noticed that too. I thought it was just because I've been grinding it and my "hidden" CS was going up above 100 and changing the ratios for the disposal crimes I was getting.

That shouldnt be a factor... the disposal activities are the same for the players that have unlocked them.

 

Dissolving bodies and parts is unlocked before you hit 100+

 

Perhaps Ched has changes the rates in order to make crimes a bit more profitable or simply its good RNG.

 

Myself and some others have done several abandons with the odd fail because acid is too pricey, but eventuallyI think some will need that acid which makes the earnings pretty minimal, but at least it guarantees a success.

Lye is expensive too, just throw them in the forest for the squirrels and homeless of Torn, its called recycling.

Might want to increase Disposal skill beyond 100 first before trying these, I haven't got even a soft fail so far ...

Is this from crimes 2.0?

 

I literally only found out about the migration from this and bogies post wtf (I have been inactive).

 

Is it worth migrating? I am 55 NNB

Interesting, but looking at your graphs, I suspect your CS 100 is considerably at its early stage? I already have more than 11K illicit services, but luck might be a part of it too, as Ched said in the newspaper, that it's bound to happen with any subcrime and there aren't any 100% safe crime in c2.0.

 

EDIT: Adding Ched's explanation in the Newspaper article: Crimes 2.0 - The Answers

 

"Crimes will vary in risk dramatically, even individual subcrimes within the same crime can be vastly different. There aren't any 100% safe crimes, but risk can be mitigated by only attempting crimes you have enough CE for, and then leveling those crimes up to 100 where the success chances will be improved."
