I was looking through all of the Various resorce's earlier and noticed how much of this stuff was not "Needed" for anything and how alot of Recipies and such can take alot of varios resorces in different slots.And some are really not needed at all,although they can be used in some slots there quility for that slot is too low tomake something of it and due to how hard they are to get nobody wants them.The main two resorce's right now i would like to see be a requirment is Egg's and Fishmeat.I looked through all the recipies and couldnt find one thing that required them.It would make fishing alot more popular,and egg's requires searching lairs.It would just be one more right step to a true economy.

Those two items are requirements for some bio-engineering items.


I, for one, am glad that they are not chef requirements because if they were, then it would be very difficult to do decent sized factory runs for any related schematics. It's not so much the eggs that would be the problem, but the fish. If there is one thing that is more boring than gathering milk, it's fishing.

    BEs need eggs. I think they may use fish too. The point being: no, we don't need them, but some other people do.

    Requiring fish or eggs in some foods, just would make those foods not really available.


    On my BE tissues vendor, whenever I make enhanced myoflex(requires eggs) people in my guild always get first dibs. I haven't placed a crate of those up for sale for many months. The same would occur with all foods that require specific and hard to collect resources.


    I'm all for them being a requirement as long as collection of them is brought in line with their use. Meat/hide/bone right now is my limit. I rarely do anythign with milk because its harder than all 3 of those 2 get. The only time I do anything with eggs is if I see some on a vendor for sale.

    I spent 3 days gathering enough eggs to run 100 enhanced tissues of enhanced myoflex for a tailor. When I was completed with the tissues I felt like I was given a cheap frontal lobotomy. The task is mind numbingly boring.


    Fish is needed to make pet stim D's (which is all I craft). There are a few people in my guild that enjoy fishing. We even have tournaments once in a while. Fishing is much more fun than gathering eggs and takes less time.


    Milk is probably the easiest of the three to gather. You can milk a critter and get x amount then blam the critter and harvest milk again. You gather larger amounts and you get combat and weapons xp while you're at it.
