Tell, me friends, what are your biggest sellers post-CU?


(Don't worry. I am no competition. I am still on the Blob Candy box of Artisan).

Do you guys always use the additives?


What kind of prices do you charge per crate?



Additives are a bit less of a "required" addition post-CU (at least with how some foods are set up). Some foods have no (or very little) improvement in buff size with an additive, so using one would be a pointless expense.


For example: Accaragm without a tissue gives +50ish health regen, +200 action regen, +200 mind regen. With a tissue you get +100ish health regen, action/mind regen are the same. That doesn't seem worth the extra 1-2k credit price increase per stack. So I leave out the tissue, don't even bother experimenting nutrition, and sell +35 HR / +200 AR / +200 MR, 11m Accaragm for 50k per crate. Although I am considering using a Multisaccharide (duration bonus) tissue to see if 17-18m Accaragm would sell for 100-125k per crate.


For foods where nutrition experimentation does have a significant effect, I do use the nutrient tissues.


Until I get a better feel for demand post-CU, I'm using a pretty simple method of pricing:


Final price per stack = ( resource cost + tissue cost + manufacturing cost ) * 1.5
Price per crate = 25 * price per stack


For self-harvested resources, I use a rough market price estimate for resource cost (generally 5-7 cpu, depending on quality), otherwise I'd be better off just selling the raw resources. I round to the nearest 5k and put it up for sale.

I been using addies in everything I make and it's all selling very quickly right now. All the stuff from the post-cu menu is 200-450k per crate and it's still flying off the shelves

50 fill vercup will sell at a big price.

as will Mando wine.

i also charge a budle for BoH and Bespin Port, since they are a realy PITA.


soon the same thing will be happening with Vegaprine, to many subs.


Depending on the server several different things could sell for a whole bunch. When I was the only chef making 50 fill vercup I was getting offers of over 500k a crate.


Brandy is still a big seller at 250-260k a crate.

Yeah, it's the Vercupti and Mando that go for 450 a crate... they take INNs, funky ingredients and looted schematics. Plus I really hate makin 'em so overpricing is a good way of keeping them stocked


Most stuff's 300 or under except for parwan and pikatta and our 16-17 min accarragm... so pretty much anything that takes a lot of milk

If it's right for your server... there are maybe 2 or 3 other chefs on Valcyn who make 50 filling vercupti and I've only seen one other who makes mando wine, and they're all MIA since the cu went live. If you're selling too quickly, raise your prices. If not, don't

Blob Candy, Vegeparsine, Thundercloud, Kiwik Clusjo Swirl, Vagnerian Canapes... all those sell out full runs in under 24 hours for me. Especially Vegeparsine, +100 melee defense goes FAST... I have just gone up to 20 food factories to try and keep up....
