in honour of getting my 600th stryll seeker yesterday, i decided to crawl thru a few of the previous styll seeker topics to tabulate some of the best hoarders to date.

with the chuhn npc hunt looming, i suspect that i might pass the rank 1200 mark before the end of the event. i will hope to get another 50 seekers in the next 36 ranks, before the Stryll Desolators abandon me, but i think that will require a bit of luck.
i look back at my post of over a year ago on
24jun2014 and i have to laugh:

after i make it to #12 on the kills leaderboard next month, i will just maintain that ranking going forward. ... so once that is done my active pvp.ing will likely drop off (will never stop raiding of course !). Red Badges 2764 ... if i get all done as planned, i will have 200 ranks from 800 to 1k to focus on hacking and selectively npc'ing (along with legion missions for relic badges). after rank 1000, i will finish off talth and then will have over 1000 ranks to focus on npc's and build up my stockpiles of the artis that will disappear.
since i never stopped PvPing as i had originally intended (now killer #3, though that will likely be as high as i go given Topper's proclivities), and thus missed out on many more NPC rushes, there was no way that i would have managed to catch up to Tree's astounding 841 tally. the xp expended on the lutuma chain just put the final nails in that coffin.
with more members sharing the base scanning load in my current legion, my Red Badge tally just snuck back over the 2400 level after languishing at the 2000 mark for months. talth was put off until after rank 1200, and is now bumped down below the rest of the uldrinan, raix, and titancore chains that i have yet to complete. instead, i am currently working on the terran outsider chain in hopes of finishing it by november so i can unlock the Archotage daily mission. i will also have The Oruas Eye ally sometime next week as long as i can get a few thousand more ctp lined up.
in my
subsequent post in that topic a year ago, i outlined my then.plans for upcoming race changes:

after Mylarai, i will go Litheor excavator. ... while i am working on the Talth chain after rank 1k, i will go lazuli fixer to aim for the exotica medal and gun, and also the harrowers for the Avenger ship design. after that it will be Talth excavator to even up all the oceanics and crystals that someone uplifted to 15x research for some reason.
i did indeed switch from Mylarai Explorer to Litheor Excavator on 04sep2014 .. and remained so for nearly 8 months until 03may2015 when i switched to Litheor Explorer to make better progress on the Enigmatic Destruction daily mission. i ended up with 171 litheor deep-phase probes installed on my planets down to 1x mega.rich artifact richness (a few of those came from planet thefts of course). on 01jun2015, i switched out of Litheor to Lazuli Fixer after somehow landing the purple turd (a bit of thanks due to certain members of Home One - y'all were full up when i tried to stop by on my legion tour !). got the exotic disruptor and stayed Lazuli only long enough to get the Avenger ship design, and now i am back to Mylarai Explorer.
i thought about going Mylarai Merchant for the Chuhn event .. but will see how my ctp supply holds up against the lutuma onslaught first. if i end up only finding a few Chuhn NPCs, the additional race changes would not be worth the 20 ctp discount per Chuhn NPC. the next race change will then likely be to Uldrinan once i have wrapped up that mission chain, to get the extra scan module and the 5% artis for my premium planets .. but that may not be until 2016.
