Theres half way OK wooly hide on endor right now... and I want 100k for armor paddings for the wookiee armor as that armor has become my stock in trade... Yet... No one is willing to hunt reasonable prices any more...

That's pretty ridiculous. I understand when a hunter won't hunt wooly on Lok, Talus,Corellia, or wants to charge large amounts for spawns on Naboo orTatooine, but jeez, Endor is about as easy as it gets for wooly.

Dang, I'm an armorsmith, and have not that much money. If people have enough money that they can spend it on others freely, and worry about 'what to spend money on', then I wouldn't complain about creature resources. I'm also a ranger, and the ranger life is far harder than any other profession as far as making money except maybe dancer. People can place a harvester down, gather tons of minerals, and make armor for a lot of money. Rangers need to invest tons of money in weapons/armor/buffs, and spend time on remote planets trying to gather the resources used in crafting.

I know some docs complain that 50-100cpu for corellian avian meat is too much here on Kauri (when it was good). Little do they know that we get extremely small harvest quantities from them. Of course we can use vegash, but that only increases the cost of our hunting.

If armorsmiths have so much money that they can't figure out what to do with it, please oh please just find some really basic news and give them armor and help. I'm no where near a newbie, but I'm talking about the new players. Some of them could get a huge benefit of about 50k and a suit of ubese, given free by an armorsmith. This game is kinda flooded with credits, we all know that, but for newbies I can feel their pain. I have people I've just given armor to because I felt sorry for them because I was once there in their spot.

I said miners. Hand harvested materials should never be as much as something an automated harvesting unit can do.

Being a doc aswell, i've learned these things.

I should also note that being a ranger gets even better than that. We, as a class, have many people who are also scouts. Although people try to look up rangers to get help, scouts unfortunately can do a darn good job with less skill points invested. I really wish that the devs would either nerf the living heck out of the harvesting abilities of scouts, or boost the harvesting of rangers. Would be a nice thing.

I give out free armor all the time to new players. But I make sure that the people I give stuff out to are not people just looking for handouts. I almost never give out free stuff to those who ask for it. The chef suit was a gift for a friend who had been playing since day 1, but still was pretty poor considering how long he's been playing. I figured I'd help him out a bit, since I can. I also have a vendor with 10k composite which is usually just my old suits which have since been improved upon. If you dont mind 620/530/620 ish 61/79 kinetic comp, it's 10k a piece. (no chests stocked). The best way to make money is looting and harvesting. If you run either missions for crystals, that's decent money, or you can hunt and sell resources at 10-20cpu for decent stuff and make quitea nice profit that way too.
