Thread: BE's are there enough around to meet demand?

I think I'll probably end up gathering the resources myself and finding a BE to make a schematic for me when I need them. I know a few friendly ones who would do that for me, thankfully

Contact Bema on Eclipse. Master BE. Not sure how much excess I will have to supply others as my husband is a master Chef and does too much business for his own good LOL. But shoot me a mail ingame and we can talk.

Another question is can we get enough BEs interested in making us additives, instead of creating animals.

Actually SirVimes that is exactly what my BE plans on focusing on. Tissues and stims first, pets second. Hope this gives you hope

Additives will be easy enough to make, once the materials have been procured. They can be run in a factory while the BE is off making pets... the two things are not mutually exclusive.

No, there will not be, nor will there be enough meat for those BEs that want to do this.

A good half of BEs are only interested in creatures. If you hand them the ingredients then they will probably create a schematic for you, but they are not interested in the harvester grind.

Those that do specialize in tissues are going to have to choose between using their resources for tailor or chef stuff and I am very skeptical that chefs are going to be able to pay what tailors pay, since tailors end up selling non-consumables they can charge a lot more for the final product.

I will be looking for a chef to make an exchange instead: I will trade 2 crates of enhancements for 1 crate of Brandy made with one of those crates of enhancements.

It's too early for me to be posting.. what I meant to say was it's not a question of finding BE's to meet the demand, but instead finding enoughmeat to make the additives. I'd imagine you could find a BE to make a schematic if you provided the resources. I'm not sure if any BE's will really try to mass produce additives to sell. As Scorus mentioned, tissues would be a better source of income.


I'd say creating partnerships is the way to go.. between BE's, chefs and rangers/scouts.

Hi. I think this may be the first time I have posted on this board. I have been looking and gained alot of helpful info. I am almost a master chef now. However I am concerned if there are enough BE's out there that can help us with the additives? I know we could always become a BE as well and make our own. However I am also a commando and do not wish to give up any of my other skills. What does everyone think?

As a MBE: I am not happy with the price that Chefs are willing to pay for food additives. Just talking with many BE on Scylla server, they will probably not be interested in what Chefs are willing to pay for the BE food additives.

There isn't going to be enough meat. Docs and Armorsmiths already have a shortage on most servers I've seen and prices just keep going higher for creature resources. Now comes the chef revamp and chefs need all this dom and wild meat for additives. Chefs go through more than any doc probably does.
People that buy food, go through food a lot more than stims.

And so the prices on Chef food will go up after this patch. My one BE man wants, currently, 4k to 5kfor ONE addititve. So if the food used to sell for say 500cr, it's suddenly got to go up 4 or 5k? It's nutty, but that's why I'm only shooting to make approxamately 20% of my goods a week BE enhanced. The costs just become too prohibitive. I'm not yelling at BE's, I understand the rareity of supplies, but this is sort of what SoE pushed upon us, without adjusting meat levels.
