Thread: Just wanna know what you guys earn ?
After figuring resource cost... you must not put much value on your time. Especially your time crafting padded.

my adv. comp. goes for 95k not matter the stats and i get stats from 69 to 64 base and 80 kin. my ubese goes for 25k and padded 45k.
4-5 millions/day for week days, more on week ends.
Overall around 35-45 millions per week.
Restock doesn't affect it much as I restock daily and always have over 1000 pieces of armor up...
Been running 11 factories for now 4 months....

Two quick questions...
How much of that money do you reinvest to your AS business?What do you do with 10's of millions ofcredits piling up?

well in my shop not much i am not like some of these other armorsmiths in this game. I provide good armor at any stats for a set price not matter what. my adv. comp. goes for 95k not matter the stats and i get stats from 69 to 64 base and 80 kin. my ubese goes for 25k and padded 45k. I dont think you have to give up your first born to wear armor that is why i do this. and people do know about my armor in brea i have seen it every where and am happy people are getting the protection they need and a fraction of the cost of other a.s. out there. So that is my take from day to day.

I buy slaves 
Hmm seriously the investment to get where I am was around 2 months of advertising and good word of mouth as well as around60 millions worth of skill tapes and it's not uncommon to have to pay 100 cpu for old resources.
So some weeks I can spend 10-15 millions on resources, some weeks nothing ( I tend to harvest myself but didn't expect the kind of success the shop has so don't have good enough stock on some old stuff, I started at a time where there were less AS on the server and in the last 5 month there has exactly been one week where my vendors were not stocked ( took 2 weeks of vacations and the 1400 pieces I had put up before leaving sold in like 1 week...))
The shop takes about 1h30 of my time every single day of the week, most of it spent restocking vendors ( and I HATE that part, loading 250 pieces on a vendor plain suck....)
Right now I probably run at 75% of my production capability( factories run around 75% of the time) and could reduce prices to sell more but I don't want to spend more time on the craft and there is no way I will let the vendors go empty.....
And yes, I do buy slaves but they don't take that much a percentage of my income

I average 1-2 million a day, but have sold 45 suits at 325K per suit in under 24 hours (did it once and only once). That was 15 million in under 24 hours
However, it took me 4 months of resource gathering prior to mastering AS and I do daily maintenance of 7 factories, 4 vendors, and 5 extractors to make 1-2 million a day. As stated, it isn't glamorous, requires a HUGE investment in time and money, and often is boring as crap to make good armor and keeping up with demand.
