You should consult the Flurry trade-forum to find a buyer for your eggs and milk or ask around directly on your server. You can try the Bazaar, too. I bet you will eventually find someone to give you good cash for your resources and maybe even make a deal with him/her for delivering more

May the Force be with you all!

For the above poster - I got an order like this the other week as well. If you are on a server that hasn't caught on to getting large quantities of identical eggs, there is one thing you can do to get them fairly quickly...though I hesitate to suggest this, I always feel badly doing it, but eh, when you have 600 eggs, and you need that last bit for the order, and its 3:00am, you get desperate.


You can search lairs from speeder bikes. I will leave it at that. Mix in a high spawn, relatively flat planet like say Yavin, and you're golden.

Fish can be used as a meat, but mollusks aren't in any chef recipes.

  • Fish - Pet Stim Ds.(0 cpu) IMHO they are pretty useless. It just doesn't make sense to make Pet Stim Ds when Cs come pretty close with much less effort.

  • Mollusk - Mimetic Circuitry [15 units] (5-10 CPU) Fairly easy to collect with a good AFK macro. I can usually have 1k in a half hour to 45 minutes.

  • Eggs - Enhanced Myoflex Treatment [15 units] (20-30 cpu) With all the AFK macroing going on and the real entertainers dropping off like flies, not many people ask for this anymore. If they do it's usually 10 to 25 tissues which I can get away with. Maybe the end of the Hologrind will change this, but that's yet to be seen.

  • Milk - Active and Passive Tranq [25 units] & Flavor enhancing Chef Tissues [20-40 units] (5-10 CPU) Milk is pretty easy to get if you know the creatures on each planet that give the most. I.E. I can get 2000 to 3000 units in an hour or two hunting Piket lairson Dantooine.

This doesn't always work. If the planet is lagging at all (Like Dantooine or Corellia) the searchoptionwill not appear until you are well past the lair forcing you to do a 180 back on yourself. If you use a fast mount (Kaadu or Spat) the search option will spawn before you get to the lair. But watch out because the search usually spawns at the same time as the creatures, and your mount will not be as fast as most of the cats in this game.


Now if there is some way to do a successful search without usingthe radial then I am wrong and would beg someone post that method.

Hmm, actually, to me fish is pretty darn valuable, and mollusk is pretty dern worthless. Also consider that on any given week there is exactly 1 dath insect meat and you're stuck with whatever the stats are, while there are many different sets of fish, several of which are bound to have good stats. So I don't really buy the bit about the power of C's and D's being close. Also, I find it valuable is a differentiator. I have em, others don't, people love 1400-1500 heal stim's nuff said.


Mollusk on the other hand goes into a tissue that nobody seems to want at any price. Nice to have a crate of it around in the unlikely event someone asks for it, but it certainly won't be a big money maker for you.


Here's approximately what the various things are worth to me:


fish 20-30cpuand I'll buy anytime(stacks of 200 or larger, good stats stats only)


mollusk: 20-30cpu, but I'd only buy some if I was out of it (stacks of 200 or larger,good stats only)


eggs: 20-30cpu and I'llbuy anytime(stacks of 300 or larger, decent stats only)


milk: 10-20cpu and I'll buy anytime (stacks of 500 or larger, good stats only)

I understand where you're coming from, don't get me wrong. But most people who want stims want them in crates of 25. And if you start doling them out then you have to start having them in stock. And to stock crates of Ds you're looking a loads of fish which is just impossible to get. People think hunting avian is boring, try to get a stack of 1000 fish by yourself. And after you've had three fish cut lose in a row the frustration makes you want to break the pole and go home.


And with the nerf of the CHs in the game there really aren't that many customers for pet stims in general much less Ds. I have some ~35/1200 Cs that have been on my vendor really cheap for about 2 months. So I just can't see wasting an entire saturday afternoon fishing so I can put up another 10 stim Ds.


As for the Mollusk, I agree. But it's really not all that hard to collect either with a macro.

Albion,


Use the tilde key on the keyboard if you haven't remapped, not the mouse. you can click on the search lair option when you are 20 meters past the lair if you overshoot. Use autorun on a speeder, no matter what the speed, and use this method, and you can hit every lair, every time.
