Hunting Merp close to the outpost close to Fort Argus. It is also close to PvP zone and Argonauts so hunters must be careful not to go too far away from the Merp zone. Good armor to use is Shogun. The maturity varies from Young to Old Alpha which makes the choice of armor and weapon harder. So it is best to have more than one kind of gun. Breer M1a (L) for the most, but something stronger for the Old Alpha.

Another day another hunt. AxeMurderer woke up late today. He was little tired from the yesterdays Faucervix hunt, but his Breer M1a (L) and Breer M4a (L) ware close to his bed, so he grabbed them and went to Orthos West Mound to hunt some Cornundacauda for the Iron Mission. Primary weapon Breer M1a (L) and the Breer M4a (L) just for protection from the nasty Berycled that always try to bite you from the back.
AxeMurderer didn't expect any global or item with big MU. All he hoped was to get enough Animal Eye Oil to buy what he needed for the next hunt. Today the gods were kind with him and he made small profit and even found 12 Papplon on the ground.

Hunting Argonauts was paying good for the AxeMurderer, but today he wanted to hunt different creature with different gun at different place. His eye stopped on the not so dangerous Faucervix. He remember that this mob wasn't very profitable for him in the past, but he decided to give it one more chance, hoping to get the skins of a lot of Faucervixs. Their skin is very expensive, usually sold for 150%. In the end of the hunt 10% of the loot was Faucervix Skin.
Before packing his gear for that hunt AxeMurderer sow that all the Iron Ingot in his shop is sold. That mean that he must again go and hunt Argonauts. Armed with 100 PED of ammo and a Riker UL2 (L) he terminated hundreds of Argonauts close to Twin Peaks. In the end of the hunt the TT value of the loot was 180 PEDs including two Teleportation Chips I for total value of 25 PED. About the half of the loot was Iron Stone, so AxeMurderer was happy that he made some profit hunting and he can refine that Iron Stone to Iron Ingot and put it in the shop for even more profit.
Finally he was free to go to Eos and hunt Faucervix. They are not very strong so AxeMurderer changed his weapon to smaller gun - Breer M1a (L). The Breer is also a lot more economical than the Riker. The decay is smaller thanks to its Excellent durability. And just for any case and for Faucervix Prowler he had Breer M4a (L). He knew from old hunters that you can never be too careful in this hostile universe.
