Power-ups are a steady source of income though the markup on these tends to be quite low, and it takes like a years worth of factory time to produce half a crate.


I tend to fill my bazaar slots with high quality armor/weapon repair kits at 3k each. They are 15 metal a piece so the markup is really nice, and I use the description to advertise the location of my vendor if they need other items of the same quality.

First i wanna say that the grinding was totally worth it, DE is a cool profession to have )
Well here's my story, since i mastered DE (a few days ago) i didn't know where to start. i ordered some Heavy Mineral Harvester and a Heavy Chem Extractor and a factory but i don't know what resource i should harvest first since i'm kinda short on lots ( 6 left, i'm considering to get myself a second account to get some lots and my little brother wants the game as well )
i did read the FAQ but it didn't awnsered my questions though...
- What resources are important to have in the beginning?

- What Modules are important to have in the beginning?

- How to make money as a starting Master Droid Engineer?

- What kinda droids are in demand?


Thanks in advance

Stock up on grind quality resources, you'll want to use these for factory runs of parts in which quality doesn't matter. I.E. EMM's, brains, sensor packages etc. Save your high quality resources for the parts in which quality enhances the module, I.E creature harvest module.


- What Modules are important to have in the beginning?



I would start off with factory runs of the modules that don't need high quality resources.


- How to make money as a starting Master Droid Engineer?


Carry a few droids into some heavily populated cities. Every time I go into a city I'm constantly being asked for droids (I'm usually anon, but I do keep my MDE tag up). If you are making good quality droids at a decent price customers will come back to you. Throw a few droids on the bazaar with a wp to your shop.


- What kinda droids are in demand?


Ask your local DE's what they are selling the most of. You'll also get a good idea when you take your trips to town. You'll get asked for quite a few different droids but you will notice that some are requested more than others.


A few more tips:

Visit your local DE shops and see what they are selling and at what prices.

Find the DEnet Admin for your server and sign up.

There is *alot* of usefull information in the posts here, it's well worth it to take the time to sift through it.



Thanks in advance


You are most welcome
