Welcome to Entropia Universe

When you enter Planet Calypso, you start out in a city called Port Antlantis, wearing only a washed out jumpsuit. You don't have a clue what to do from there? Well, don't worry, I'll tell you in a second.

The PED currency used on Calypso has a fixed exchange rate of 10:1 with the US dollar allowing you to deposit and withdraw real money during your adventures on Calypso.

If you don't have a credit card, or want to check out the game before you start investing real money into a game you know virtually nothing about, then you need another way to make some income. Because income you will need since everything in this game cost money, except sweating.

So what is sweating?

Sweating means sweating your ass off, well not really.. Sweating is a time consuming process that involves gathering a stuff called Vibrant Sweat from living creatures. To do this you need a tool called VSE MK 1. This is a tool that every colonist is equipped with, so go on to your inventory and find it and equip it.

Now point your equipped VSE MK 1. towards an animal and click to collect some Vibrant Sweat. As you can see this is a time consuming process since it will fail a lot, and the yield for each attempt is not that great. The mob will also start attacking you, so to start with you will die a lot, sending you to the nearest revive terminal. So you have to run back to the mob to continue sweating. This is a great way to start building defensive skills like Evade.

If you get tired of all the clicking you should read here about how to activate the Toggle Auto-Use Tool

This is why you should invest in some cheap armor parts and a medical kit as soon as you got enough sweat to afford it, do not buy armor parts from the Trade Terminal (TT) becuase that armor is no good. Try to buy pixie or goblin parts from other colonists instead, or loot them your self when you get some guns and ammo for it.

When you learn how the basic things like equipping tools, running around and navigating with the map then you should head over to Sweat Camp


When you have gathered a lot of sweat, it is time to sell it. Since the sweat has no real value in the game you need to sell it to other players that will use the sweat to make Mind Essence, and are too lazy to gather the sweat them self. The going rate for Vibrant Sweat is 5 PED per 1000 bottles of sweat, but this can variate. It's all about supply and demand.
