If money-making potential is your criteria, then I'd sell the resource reward rather than using it. Seriously. There are professions where they value certain resources at 100's of cpu and you'll never get that kind of return on a BE product.

I've never made tissues before so I don't know what I should be getting either, like what is the biggest money maker and most in demand?

Can someone please suggest and post some legendary/uber resources of the past to use with the Free Resources Crate? I've already checked the swgcraft.com site and other places, but would like to know first hand from someone what to use for BE. I used one crate on fish but I don't even know if that was the best I could have gotten. Something from Tat that begins with the letter I.

You're obviously not using the SWGCraft.com filter option efficiently if you don't know if its the best resource or not. Here's Zad's 10 easy steps to getting the best from your resource deed.

1. Find resources link
2. Select the class you want (let's say creature food)
3. Select the server (let's say Farstar)
4. Make sure 'only verified' and 'only available' remain UNCHECKED
5. Select search by Experimental Percentages
6. Enter the % weightings into the boxes - for unimportant values, they can be left blank. (Since I want to craft additives with my 30k free resource [i'm not sure WHY, but I do] I will input the correct additives weightings. These are not the 33/33/33 as listed in game but actually 50/30/20. So I will enter 50 into the overall quality box, 30 into the potential energy box and 20 into the flavour box.
7. Find Resource!
8. Next click on the down arrow next to the 'Rating' text, this will sort descending.
9. Voila! Lano, a type of Rori Insect Meat shows up with a weighted average of 985.
10. Next time I'm in game, I can negotiate through the menus to find Lano and get 30k of it.

On a side note, Art's right - don't use it for additives unless you feel like showing off a +89 BSN . A lot of BEs used their deed on fish meat to make uber stims, while others sold theirs for 100-200cpu on the trade forum, which is much more profit than you'll make for any bio-engineered product. My advice is too look at your finances, if you can afford not to sell it then get some decent fish meat, get some decent danto fiber and make yourself some quality pet stims. Mine were 38/1734, though there are ones that nearly reach 1800 power.

As useful as SWGCraft is, it does not contain every resource that has ever spawned in its database....

True, but if you think about this realistically - what are the odds that manually clicking through all the resources you will find a resource that is significantly better than those not declared on swgcraft.com? For the time invested doing so (you will have to work out the weighted averages of all the resources in the same category) - I don't think its worth it. Valid point but I think I'm safe with SWGCraft.com's database.

Agreed.... but isn't it worth a try to see if a BE from Starsider has discovered a super uber fish that isn't listed on SWGCraft?

Not to beat a dead horse, but the difference for me as about 120+ heal points on the final stim between what SWGcraft says was the best and what was actually the best. If you want the best, ya have to spend the time mindlessly reading resource stats. If you want very good stuff, then swgcraft.com is the way to go.
