Okay, I'm a new Chef and was wondering what I should charge for my wares. For instance, I can make Blue Milk in crates of 25, with 4 uses each, so basically 100 drinks in every crate. Each drink is +312 Mind Pool, filling is 34. What would be a fair price so people get a good deal but I also can make a profit from buying the resources ? Oh, also how do I find out what the duration is ? Anything else I need to know to advertise it appropriately ?

Blue Milk is instant, no duration.


Go here to learn much about the food: http://www.gamekast.com/swg/foodtables.html


And I just made a few batches of Blue Milk. Not enough to tell you what is a fair price yet.

I made some Blue Milk 34 Filling, 364 Mind Heal, cant remember quanity, and sold crates of 25 like candy to a baby for 40K a pop. I raised the price to 50K and did not see a difference. This is all without additives.

I'm going 35k a crate on it right now. I don't sell very much of it. Maybe 5 cratesin a goodweek. I would lower the price so people could get more use out of it, but I have a very hard time getting milk so I don't bother. I'd rather have crates on the vendor at a high price instead of being sold out for weeks before I get more milk.


BTW my stats aren't much better than someone posted above. 370ish mid 30s filling I think.

Read the FAQ above. There is an excellent cost of food spreadsheet made by Mokia O'tannia


it is a good starting point, easily adjusted for your server's economy.

Your blue milk would sell much better if the filling was experimented to 33
