Thread: My Vasarian Brandy Factory run : +364 for 45 mins, 18 stack
)Well up to now, I have never bought resources, I always mine them myself, so my costs are rock bottom. It takes 355 resources to make one of these stacks. Taking out the 20 units of meat that would be 335x whatever the cost per unit is for harvesters. I think it's something silly like 0.4cpu. Going by that it cost me something in the region of 134 credits per stack.
However, there's no way I can base my selling price on that.... It's taken me over 9 hours solid game-time to get everything together and so far I've only done the component factory runs. I still have to do the final combine for the additive, and then the final-final combine for the drink.
Also, I have made these from resources I have 'laying around' after months of mining for Doctor resources on my other character. I haven't harvested anything at allespecially for this run. I asked a PA Tailor to make the schematic for the trim on the casks and found a Master BE with the search feature to do the schematic for the additive (Edit: I paid the BE 25k for his time).
When I get to grips with the Chef system (I only mastered 3 days ago) and start to harvest specifically for making foods, I expect my costs and time invested to go up considerably. I also forsee that I won't have anything like enough time or lots to be able to harvest all this for myself, so I will have to start buying resources.

I Mine resources and buy resources since that is really the only way to keep up when good stuff spawns.
Based on my operating costs and factory time included it costs me right at 100k a crate to make my BE enhanced Brandy. If your friend buys more than I do I can easily see the cost going as high as 200k to produce.
I am not sure what the economy is like on Eclipse so hard to say what you should sell those for Isodi. I would probably sell them for about 8k a stack myself.
Nice. I just made started a factory run of the same but with +408 (+816 with 2 shots) for 40 minutes. But i refuse to use casks or large glasses as they aren't economically viable. A crate of 25 with 6 uses will keep a player buffed for 50 hours of play without wasting all that gemstone. The less resources the better with this stuff, as factory times on bio-components and medium additives is extremely long, and having to make 2 other components on top of that before getting to the final run, makes the small glasses the option in my view. Players who are "Muon addicted" would have to carry 12 crates around to one of the above to get 1/3 of the effect and masses of downtime
I don't know how smugglers are gonna survive selling muon with this stuff about, with the ever increasing figures im getting with the higer quality of resources i'm managing to experiment with, can Muon compare with it? Maybe as a quick add-on for PvP or some serious force hunting. But with all 3 stats buffed at the same time, this is gonna be extremely popular.

Im sure you maybe talkin about yer drink here, but it's kinda unclear in the message there. Made me think you were talking about your stomach digestion time from the first read over, may wanna clarify that for customers. They've been asking me lots of questions about thier new stomachs.
