Hello everyone, after my absence for all those years and return to the game, i've seen numerous changes, but also many things remaining the same or similar. It is still a tough Universe out there for the F2P(Free to play) and low-depo players. But there is always hope, with hard work and discipline anything may be within reach.
Here are the main basic Tips for your survival in Entropia Universe. These tips are mainly focused around Planet Calypso, the main planet of the Universe.
Know that this game is an extremely grindy one for everyone. It takes a long time to make it, or get anywhere. Every action costs real money and as a F2P or low-depo(Low depositting) kind of player you will have to use ANY and ALL sorts of ways to make PEDs and afford a chance in this game.
Let's have a look at the main ways to make PEDs in the game in 2026
1) Earning PEDs Online.
Your first and one of the best methods of making PEDs in EU(Entropia Universe) is from here . Create your account, start doing various tasks like watching videos, completing surveys, playing games etc and start earning PEDs right away!
2) Sweating
The basic and most well known free activity in EU. This is your main bet on making some PEDs to fund your activities here as a F2P or even as a low-depo player. Easy, accessible, plentiful and even gives you some skills while performing it. Try to sweat in a circle, which is far more convenient than doing it alone and has far better results. You may find sweat circles at these locations :
Royal Club /wp [Calypso, 31048, 40068, 223, Waypoint]
Boreas /wp [Calypso, 74367, 67340, 141, Waypoint]
Simply paste and copy the part after and with the /wp to get the waypoint there.
You can combine this with the 1st Tip for maximum profit. Whilst semi-AFKing and sweating you can complete the tasks here and earn more PEDs per hour. Sweat sells for around 1.5 PED/1k (1.5 PED for every 1000 bottles of sweat sold). There are resellers and buyers asking for 1.1-1.3 PED per 1k but if you hold onto it you can find a buyer at 1.5 eventually. Also there is an event here where you can sell your sweat.
3) Oil Rig
There is an Oil Rig at the Orthos Oil Field, location : /wp [Calypso, 64267, 75810, 112, Waypoint] .
The Rig spawns Crude Oil at random intervals, between 5-30 minutes. Each spawn ranges from 240(2.40 PED) to 360(3.60 PED) Crude Oil barrels.
This Oil Rig is a full PvP zone, non lootable which means you can be shot dead but not lose anything from your inventory. People tend to make lines there and wait for their turn to go and pick a single drop of Crude Oil, then return to the line and wait patiently for their turn again.
As it being PvP though, from time to time people tend to control it, making it impossible to grab any oil without being shot down. Some times people create an FFA(Free For All) rule and anyone around it may grab it.
You can again combine this with Tip number 1 for maximum profit.
Except for all of these there are more of course, like going after big MU, trading, offering services etc. But all these need more experience, skills and knowledge of the game, so as a new player you should stick to these 3 main ones to fund your 3 main professions(Hunting, Mining, Crafting) up until you reach a point to consider pursuing something else.
Personally i definitely recommend depositing small amounts every now and then as this will definitely boost your chances of achieving something in this Universe and will definitely make your life a lot more fun here.
After the introduction of the Starter Kits, which you may find in the main website, it's fast and easy to get a nice Kit that will take you far for 10$-20$.
Hope these little Tips will help your survival in Planet Calypso and Entropia Universe in general and make your time here more enjoyable and worthwile.
Till next time, take care and be successful in your endeavours Entropians!
