Damage Inc. Releases

Last Days of E&B

Damage Inc is still alive in Galileo. We have set up for several major epics. We just finished an OCD, killing the Zenrei Tempest Guardisn (for crap loot), have been doing several Red Dragon Bases, Azazel Epic. We're geared up to do a couple Tada-O fishbowls, as well as at least one Zeke epic (one BPS build already, with the supplies set to build at least one more). Also, some of us have begun working on our last toons. Barely enough time to make it to level 150 before the end!

As for plans going forward, many of us have gone off to EVE (look for Keleborn, Aman Sul, Bogwad, etc) there. There's two EVE corps related to us -- Damage Inc, and the split-off Damage Industries. Most of our members took the split as DamageInc was doomed with an idle CEO who would not hand over the reigns of leadership to someone who was actually playing.. Ahh, the tragic drama of corporate politics in EVE.

Also, I note that many non-Damage Inc folks are using my macros found here on the corp website. I have no problem with opening them up to all, provided they aren't being abused.

After some shrewd trades, I got hold of some Ascendent Voltoi activation

crystals. Guild warriors got together and hacked down the ascendent voltoi twice! Mini-epics still in the works include AZAZEL, and we still have to organize an activated Tada-O gate raid or two.

On our way to our own Epics!

Agg and I found most of the looted ingredients we need for a Fishin Kit (see the Gone Fishin' walkthru in the missions section). We got some extras, for another kit, so more feathers are in order. We'll need to schedule a time for a Damage Inc sponsored fishbowl raid. A lot of the raids I have been on have failed, mostly due to poor leadership. We will need to make sure we do it right the first time. I also want to verify THE EXPLOIT so that we can run raids without losing our kits. We also have some of the stuff for zeke epic. I'd like to get the guild in on RD base raids if we can. If anyone can get hooked up with strategy/tactics contacts that would be great.

MiningMyule macro has been updated to handle mining for gases in glenn much more effectively. In a week I've leveled my Ogger alt 10 explore levels and gotten about 1 million credits per hour the macro runs.

Play E&B Survivor!

See what guilds will be last on the server! I have been doing some development on my macros -- see the macro page for new stuff. MiningMyule gotten really good so I have racked up lots of mars construction project alloys. Also its good for explore XP leeching. We will need to set up guild PL'ing for XP with it.

Other developments -- we accumulated some more rare epic mission parts. I looted an Umbral Obtenerate Focus (zeke epic) last night while waiting for a controller raid to start, and we now have at least two feathers in the guild (Activated Gate epic). We'll have to finish the activation items and see who's left in the game to run the raids with us... Sadly raids are getting hard to do as getting enough competant and honest players at once is a challenge. They may become a weekend only thing. Send me feedback as when you want to do raids and we'll try and schedule soemthing. As I write, the controller is still up, from a failed attempt last night.

E&B Sunset date announced!

Sadly, EA has chosen to shut off E&B on 9/22/2004. I'll continue to keep Damage Inc alive as long as possible. I'm going to assist in whatever avenues possible to keep E&B alive. I'd like to investigate continuity plans for Damage Inc to other venues. Perhaps most interesting -- EVE's guilds are actually called corporations.
