I currently have a couple different kinds of Thakitillo that can be made. One, with a +93 defense vs. KD/13m 3s/44 fill/1 qty and the other with +93 defense vs. KD/11m 51s/42 fill/2 qty.
Of the two choices, which do you all think would be the better bet? They both have the same defense bonus, however one lasts longer with a higher fill and has a lower quantity, and the other has a slightly lower duration and fill, but a higher quantity.
I was thinking the one with the 2 qty., but I'm not really sure if the time bonus would be preferred.

Just guessing here, but I'd bet that people look at the duration, bonus & fill before they look at quantity. One affects performance while the other is a price/value issue. For my money, the 2 uses is better, but customers have an odd way of evaluating purchases, in my experience, and often don't think about things the way we might expect.

I'd say the 2 use one. Its only a 2 minute difference. This double thevalue(to the user)while only losing like, less than 20% of the duration. But then again I'm not a PvPer.

Not a chef but as customer..
I say duration (in that matter also fill) is most important for me.
For example, while choosing my brandies, I do not much care about if it is +390 or +420 for me. Most of them is below 50 fill but I would like to drink 2 more when its effect is gone (which is stomach to be emptied to drink 2 more)
Hope my view helps.

i'd say the 2 use as well... simply because ppl will notice fast that they only have 1 use... and that annoys ppl.
I've started making some new traki for testing.
+73 KD Def
15:44 Duration
38% Fill
2 uses
My own experience tells me that this is far better than the +100/10:00/44% stuff most ppl make. As you can keep eating it.
But we'll see.
But get 2 uses always is my advice. People don't really care much about 18 or 21 uses in the brandy... but they sure care about 1 or 2 uses from trakitillo, vercupti and such.

Yeah, and advertise them as quality versus quantity. I would by the higher quantity though
