Hey guys


I posted this in the radiant boards, but I am getting no love as of yet.


I just rejoined after taking 1.5 years off of SWG, and I was on top of the mineral world back then. Since then there has been various shifts, and I assume all resources have shifted in that were needed (in the first 6 months on Radiant one of the resources to make t-21 had never shifted in). Anyway I have3 question to ask since resource mining is how I earn my cash.


A) What are the "prime" resources to mine at this time. I have a tonne of heavy mineral harvies, so any mineral suggestions would be appreciated...but if minerals just ain't where it is at, a heads up on that too would be cool.


B) If anyone on here plays on Radiant, and knows what the server is looking for, I'd appreciate it.


C) Are shifts sitll as random as before? How long would an average shift last or is it still not nailed down?

A) Steel, Alum, and Ore generally sell well. A really good idea is to market yourself to a specific customer base though. For instance, find out what shipwrights need and mine everything they need. Set yourself up as a place that shipwrights can count on. Chefs need a ton of specialized resources that most people don't mine too (though these are flora, not mineral). It used to be that doc resources were valuable, but buffs are pretty much dead, and docs don't pay as much for resources (or go through them nearly as quickly) as they used to.

B) dunno

C) Most spawns of normal resources last about 10 days. People don't always enter it into swgcraft.com on the first day though, so if you see one on swgcraft that's about 7-8 days old, it's probably about due to de-spawn. There were also some new resources that were introduced with Jump to Lightspeed last fall. They have longer spawns - about 18 days or so I believe. And I think all flora lasts longer than 10 days too - maybe 2-3 weeks. But we don't have the problems we did a couple years ago where stuff wouldn't de-spawn. It's on a pretty regular shift now.





Thus sayeth Dimear
