Thread: What's the most you've ever spent on meat?

Well, we have a decent carnivore meat spawn on Scylla. Not uber, but decent. I'm coming in at close to 20 million spent on this spawn, coupled with an awesome spawn of milk that I'm paying entirely too much for because I started buying later than everybody else.

I think I recall Aye saying that he'd spent a large sum on a spawn of carnivore as well, so now I'm curious...

What's the most you've ever spent on an in-spawn meat? If you want to give you answer in CPU's, what was the total quantity purchased (well, approximately, anyway)? I'm not trying to get to the bottom of anything, it's just a my latest curiosity. Lol.

Well being new still I haven't spent much on meat.


There is a pretty good spawn of meat on my server so I just bought a whole 30k of it at 30cpu.


I haven't made much with meat in it, (just doing my first run of crispic this morning) and my credits are going on tissue's currently and I don't have enough to buy huge quantities of the stuff...

We recently had one of the best insect meat spanw on Ahazi and I was paying 30cpu for it, as meat for tissue it was more then I'm used to spending but hey.. the meat was to die for.


All up I think I spent around 15mil on it but most of it I got from going out and harvesting it, was able to get more that way not to mention it was much cheaper. Have around 1.5mil of it in stock.. using them slowly and its going to take awhile before I need anymore meat.

Oh, thank heavens. I feel better knowing I'm not alone in my ridiculous spending habits, lol.

I need to go and find myself more newbies to hunt for *GASP* 100k!! Where did you find such gems? I'd even be willing to up it to 200k! Lol. Seriously, where did you find those people? Did you pluck them from Eisley (Entha...? Where's the newbie spawn point? Lol.)?

There was an old spawn of Dathomir Carnivore meat that while spawning I offered 30cpu. I got 3.5mil of it.

Good gawd, eerif. That's a lot to drop on meat. Then again, we don't need to buy much else in the way of resources, so it's an amazing investment.

Yeah, I don't ever need carnivore meat again. The downside is that I bought 1.5mil of the previous spawn at 25cpu, and the next spawn right after is an even better spawn... was just like *ugh* hehe

That was my worry too. "What if something better comes out right afterwards and I get stuck with millions of units of this spawn?" Ah well, good meat is good meat, and HOORAY for never needing to buy it again.

Funny story, someone (who used to be a friend - who apparently isn't anymore) saw that I mentioned that I was buying unlimited amounts, and decided to pipe up and tell me that he could get 300k a day x 2, and wanted to know what my bonus program entailed. I called him on the bluff because I'd gladly take 300k+ a day until the spawn is over, and asked him to e-mail me if he was serious. Low and behold, no e-mail. You have to love when people want to test the limits of your bank account.

Yeah last good spawn of carn meat I spent about 80 million myself. You know whaty REALLY sucks? Is that this was either just before or just after the CU (can't remember)... but either way before the cu I would have by now already been well on my way to making that money back... but since the cu my sales have dropped dramatically so my acct seems permanently stuck on an amount MUCH lower than I'm used to seeing it... which honestly has me worried for the future (i.e. next great spawn). *sigh*


Either.. I bout plutzed when I actually did the math and realized how much I had already spent on the spawn!

On Lowca, I've been a chef since last February. A few months ago, I saw a good shift of Dath carnivore meat come in shift and to compete with other chefs, offered 60 cpu. I wound up buying around 1 million units of it. Not too long ago, I FINALLY recovered that money and a couple of weeks ago, I happened to notice on swgcraft while just browsing, that the 5th best rated spawn, (FL/PE/OQ) of Insect meat was in shift and had been for 9 days. I've seen the effects of the new CU on harvesting, so I started offering 30 cpu, but then literally dropped it to 10 cpu. The meat comes in so fast now, that with a master ranger in group, and a few Bounty hunters and other harvesters, I was able to gather 1.2 million units of the 5th best insect meat spawn ever on Lowca for 10 cpu.


I have this 1.2 mil units of the meat, around 4 million units of 1000 oq wood (no FL or PE so it's GREAT for additives since that doesn't factor into the calculations), and about 3 mil left of some tubers that are 943/979/720 oq/pe/fl. Needless to say, I'm set for a while and just have my guild BE make me schems and pay him a few mil every month just to keep me supplied with schems.
