Thread: How much is meat going for on your server?
On sunrunner, I'm having to pay 30cpu for good carnivore meat that could be got from Missions, such as on Endor. For Carnivore meat that cannot be got from missions easily, such as Lok, I have to pay 40cpu.

On Kettemoor the going price for decent herbivore and avian is between 50 cpu and 500 cpu. I'm just wondering what Docs and Chefs are seeing on other servers.
normal price for highlevel avian on lowca is 100 cpu for in shift stuff
the 900+ pe fl and oq reptile meat is going for 50 to 70 cpu
average on just good meat is 20 to 40 cpu
I get pretty much all of my meat either in trade for food, or from members of the guild for about 5 cpu. Occasionally, when there's a truly high-quality spawn I'll make a one-week special of up to 10 cpu for that type of meat.
But the Foos rock. Most of them offer the meat for free. I get so much that I just give all of the Avian meat I get to the Docs and the Dathomir Insect Meat to our BEs.

Chef's and BE's need plain ole meat, any type, as long as it has good stats.
This is incorrect.
Bivoli Tempari, which we get a lot of requests for, takes carnivore meat.
Gruvaan Shaal (not as popular as Bivoli, but still get requests) requires reptilian meat.
Scrimpi (same as shaal) requires herbivore meat
Just to expand on that, BE's require:
Carnivore, fish, Dathomirian insect, eggs, mollusks, herbivore, insect, scaley, domesticated, reptilian, and wild meat, specifically by name for various tissues and pet meds. That's in addition to the regular requirements from schematics that only specify "creature food". Frankly, it suprises me that Fellstaff, who appears to have taken it upon himself to act as some sort of ambassador between the chefs and be's, would make such a grossly inaccurate generalization regarding what is essentially the key source of tension between the two communities.
Cryonax has given a partial picture of the cost of meat on Chilastra. There are averages for the more common types of meat that rangers/scouts recognize as being popular. To make the full spectrum of BE items, however, requires tracking down some of those varieties that are essentially priceless, because nobody is selling them. You may occasionally find a few stacks of 50-200 for 6k on bazaar for some types, but it's not a regular supply, just whatever someone found on the local yard trash that day. One such category is domesticated meat, which I have yet to find any regular quality supplier for, and is a key ingredient to several of the chef tissues. To expand on the original question - are there any servers where all the neccesary varieties are available at any cost in regular supply without special ordering?
