Here is what I do:


1) take crafting breaks constantly. every 3-4months I "hibernate" my AS toon for a month

2) make the most wicked PvP suit the server has ever seen, and keep it for yourself.

3) spend 1-200mill buying the absolute nastiest skill mods and weps to pwn in PvP

4) Declare Overt and go kill all your clients


I love shooting at my clients in friendly PvP, and they love attacking me - its great fun.

Sheesh...you're richer than I've been, I guess


I topped 100 mill for about a month...3-4 months back...but since then I've been floating 'round 25-50 ...slowly creeping up.


You know...I think the biggest rush would be to put on a +25 experimentation suit and go out and see how low you can get the condition of the pieces by fighting Deathblow mobs


What the heck you been spending all that money on?!?!

Things like puke pink hot pants, or some of those vests that nobody has ever worn because they're so ugly.
Then resell them, thus ensuring that every other crafter on the server will slowly go mad due to the disgusting clothing they have to wear when crafting.





Hmm..

I like this idea, but it needs refining.

First off, get your tailor to make crates of the same 1 item of gross clothing. e.g. Puke Pink Hotpants.

Then go buy al the experimentation tapes you ever see come up for sale on your galaxy, and use them on pairs of the pink hotpants.

Then have a fire sale every month or so of multiple pairs of Pink Hotpants all with different size experimentation mods.. e.g. Pink Hotpants - armor experimentation +2, Pink Hotpants - armor experimentation +8, Pink Hotpants - armor experimentation +7 etc.

I had around 160 mil so I spent about half my cash.. Ibought 22 GDK scales and a suit of BH Armor and some exceptional krayt segments and other stuff. Have to get on the RIS bandwagon sometime right?


I stocked 45 suits of kinetic/energy composite and sold out in three days. Ugh. Can't keep up with that demand. And I'm not cheap either. Still, that made me 13 million in the same amount of time too.


My plan now is to slow down my armor business a bit (concentrating on just one sale location) and work more on my display armor. Too bad a lot of it hinges on the slices to get impressive armor. My 40/80/90 Stun suit still only has two pieces done.


Tending factories has become darn boring really. I'm going to switch to doing 250 suit runs instead of 45.. or I would, if I had enough wooly.

I can understand that , getting bored myself lately .Might even give up AS think im gonna downsize my shops to 1 maybe 2 locations . Been tempting myself to get RIS stuff got lots of gurk king hides from hunting and a few bones but just cant overcome the thriftiness and spend the millions for GDK .Tried hunting them myself but end up all black barred . Thats even with disease buffs. Just used up 100 misc NS layer.shards janta ,kray segments and scales and got lots of gloves . And happy to report broke 200mill as of monday . And thing is i only sell 10-20suits a week most of the time im out hunting looking for the hides i need or meat for friends. Either way what ever you do remeber its a game and its for fun ,so if its not fun find something else to do. Can always pick up AS again fast.

HA!!! Wish I could sell that fast. I've been a MAS longer and I'm happy at my 3mil. If my comp suits would start selling I'd move up pretty quick though I bet. Just recently made an actual run of Composite. Stupid merchant nerf killed me though cuz of all my wookie hunting armor already on there.

Yeah, my plan was to get an alt and try and get it myself.. but.. I never ended up doing it. And I figured wth, what fun is money in the bank? Of course now I probably won't be able to afford something really über that gets sold on the forums or something.


I'll have to start thinking about how much to get of new AS spawns, running into a big storage issue now that I'm dropping my alt. I guess his structures will still stand at least three months though.

Something you shouldn't do, buy experimentation tapes when your already a 12 pointer (

I know all the arguments for it, but if your not having fun in your profession I just don't get it.

Get an alt. Alts are expensive. An eight million credit DE-10 here, an eight million credit sonic blaster there, combat armor attachments that cost multiple millons. Adds up to bea real money pit.
