I am a new Master BE,


I don't see anyone just selling sampled DNA. Has anyone thought of this before? Is there enough demand to start providing a business to do this?


I find sampling DNA pretty fun, especially when the creature is beyond your combat capabilities. Are there any BE's out there that would rather have DNA samples provided to them, instead of having to trudge across the galaxy to find it for themselves?


Just Curious...

I tried this one day to see if it worked. All of my samples, from a 500cr syck to a 1500 voritor dasher sold out to one person. Looks like there is a market.


Just remember folks, if you're looking to buy, samples are found under the components section.


I decided to try this because my limited play time makes it hard for me to build and market my pets.

I would buy DNA samples if someone sold em on Farstar, mainly lower end ones cause they are to damn dull to sample. Atleast High End ones are some sport in finding then getting good samples.

I sell HQ dna on my vendor. It helps pay for the trips to endor etc..


I'm not quite as expensive as some others, I keep all VHQ samples for myself... sell a few HQ and delete most AA samples.


Normally I sell for about 1k a piece. my highest is for merek harvesters and sell them for 2k a piece.

You shouldn't delete your AA samples. Check out this weeks tip on AA samples. I have actually made better pets with some AA samples than my VHQ ones. I check each of the stats individually and then put it in the appropriate slots. Maybe label the AA on your vendor as 'High Prowess' or 'High Intellect' etc.

At DNA 4 most of my samples are AA. I delete the average ones. In fact I've been tempted to delete the left side of the tree and sell DNA and cute-but-deadly pets to free up some points, after I reach master and make my token kimo and rancor.


(Yes, I know I'm the slowest BE in the known universe. Thought I'd find out if you really can get 20K milk in a few hours. Gonna get there someday. )

I'd ask this question (and I plan too) on your server boards and see what the response is. I haven't ever seen any sell on Naritus but then I haven't had cause to look in the components section of the bazaar yet either.
