Thread: Bestine painting list first round
what really bugs me is i keep seeing them on the bazaar for 6000....
there are some real idiots ruining our profession.....fountains statues and now paintings...
What fool pays 48K for a scematic then sales the 2 paintings for 6K each....that is a loss of 36K....
do they still teach math in schools?
Yeah, you can make schematics from the schematic. I made 100 paintings using two stacks of different hide. Sold them all for 5K each. That's 500K from an investment of 48K, plus resources. (Plus, I made additional sales from people coming to my Furniture Showroom to buy the painting!)
Can't wait for the next painting! And I expect candles and lights will be even better (more variety and repeat sales with the decay)
if we can make schematics from the schematic then it really defeats the entire purpose of making then a rare item doesnt it...
they might as well just give us the schematics for all the paintings now instead of the conveluted voting thing.

well that really ruins my business...
i had been selling them for 150K a piece....
so once again some architects drive the peices down to nothing
all of the schematics seem to be this way....
the only people who are really hurt by this are the tailors.....
they need that heavy leather and they can really only get enough of the same serial to make 2-3 at most, while weaponsmiths and us can make 10000s.
i thought this was going to be really cool.
but now its just like statues and fountains, its a cheap object that every low level archtiect is going to pump out and staurate the market so that no one will want one in a week....
io had really really hope for rare items that would go up in value as time passed...some thing that not everyone could make..
but alas now there will be enough in crates to last longer than the game will.

They should have just given us all the painting schematics. Putting limited use schematics scattered around the galaxy is not content
Well at least for real game developers it isn't.....
