Thread: Sunnrunner Canape Vendors...where are you?
Nope that is not who I get it from right now. I will not reveal her name as to prevent people from buying all her stock and then reselling it at a substantally higher price. I do by not BE canape too for when I am PvE and I do not need quite a high as mind regen rate. What are the stats on your Canape drwoobie?

As for those of us on other servers, stocking Canape is a sticky situation. You see, Canape takes the same resources (more, actually) as Brandy, yet it has less uses, FAR lower duration, and a lesser overall effect. So, we have to price it comparatively high to the benfit it produces. It's generally easier to just use those Berries and Fruits to make Brandy. I stock Canape (and Clusjo) for those people who absolutely must stack the biggest boosts possible, but I concentrate more of my attention into the more efficient (and popular) Acca and Brandy. Perhaps that's why you're having trouble finding it in stock. Have you considered placing a custom order directly with your local Chef?
Well, imho, the big problem here isn't necessary the stack size, but the fact that you only get 6-7 uses for one heavy BE supplement (as opposed to 18-21 uses for a "medium" for brandy). So its a double whammy on stack size and higherBE resource cost.
To the orignial poster, would the Canapes be useful with a stat of more like +300 will/foc if the stack size were, say, 12-15 or more? Using quantity BE supps would do this, but it would also probably raise the price since the BE portion would be even harder to make.
Point being, its just not possible for a Chef to keep up with even one person eating BE Enhanced Canapes at that rate,given the resource and time requirements (remember, not having billions of credits is not your local Chef's problem I can assure you.....its the sheer number of hours keeping up with factory runs and securing gated resources like milk and meat that are the bugger). The only reason I mention this is some people think if you throw enough credits at anything, it will just magically happen. With endgame food, think more along the line of krayt tissues and armor segments (ok, not THAT bad, but you see the point).
I have been stocking BE Brandy with normal, +300ishCanapes, and I still have a hard time keeping them in stock. Using BE comps on them sure makes them nice, but I don't think its meant for a 1-2 crate a night consumption.
