Hello all


Was wondering what you would charge someone for taking their old RIS suit and make a new one from it or if they bring the loot drops with them. I know it differs from galaxy to galaxy but im just looking for a ballpark here.


Thanks for any help

200k-300k per piece depending on layering and if they want enhancers (that they also provide - at least when enhancers worked). 50k each for boots/gloves or free if it is a full suit. I am one of the cheaper RIS assemblers on Ahazi, but we are also one of the more inflated economies.

300-750k depends on what i feel like, how expenise the loot is valued on the bazaar (just as a guide to how valuable a suit should be), how much i like the customer...

The suits on Farstar seems to go for about 6M, regular unlayered. The loots costs from 50k to 100k so that would mean 2.7M at the most or 1.35M at the cheepest priece for the loot.


If you count the cheep loot you get a price per piece (7 pieces) of 664k. With the most expesive loot you get a price of 471k so I guess I should be somewhere around those prices

I only do ris in layered cores. So I charge 600k for the cores and assembly if they bring me the loots needed to make it. If I have to provide the loots, its alot more expensive. I wish i was on some of the others servers who get loot cheaper, but on chilly, we pay 150k for gurk hides, 500k for the gdk and 50 to 75k for the bones.

i charge the same i would charge a normal suit with those stats. Might add a minor customization fee 50-100k but thats it, when they bring the 3 ris components the rest is a walk in the park

This was the other option I was thinking about. All the seperates RIS from e normal suit are the loot drops really. Im finding it hard to justify the 6M pricetag for RIS when the lootdrops cost at the very most 3M and a normail battle armor suit about 400k.

Maybe prices for full RIS suits is gonna drop real soon on Farstar, better get as many sold as possible before that happens I guess.

My per-piece cost ends up being about 15% more for equivalent regular battle armor. That extra 15% represents my expertise, my extra effort for becoming RIS certed (I did it back when it was difficult), and my effort to acquire and usage of the best RIS resources available. I do (or did)put a hefty premium on enhanced RIS (or any other armor type) due to how adding enhancers at the segment level
requires many extra tiny factory runs.

I charge a little more than I would for a corresponding standard suit since I have to make the segments in addition to using my cores, 350k for unlayered and 850k for layered. I've have people give me looted cores to use for museum suits. I only charge 50k to put those suits together.

well i tend to sell my full suits of stnadard armor for 500k. If some one comes along wanting a full suit of RIS and brings all their loot components I charge em 600k. Goes up from there depending on loot components. If I have to supply the parts I usually charge going market rate + a little bit per loot component. Right now on bria GDK scales for example go for about 4-500k a piece on average, wollemander bones for about 20k a pop and gurk hide for about 100-200k a pop.


And then yeah if their wanting layered armor or HP enhancements (When ever the hell they fix it) goes up. HP enhanced armor with the max +350 hp bonus can fetch a hell of alot on bria.
