Thread: POLL: Show us your Bling Bling!!
I am not really the prototypical CM. I don't do CM work for groups, or rely on my CM skills for kills or money.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
I make most about 500k more a week than I spend.
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
I sell power. I run 8 pre-patch Fusion Ion generators and they generate about 750k of power a week which I sell by barking, bazaarsand through my network of past customers,friends and contacts.
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
I spend a lot on bling bling (armor, mounts, unique items). I do spend a ton on maintenance. I put 250k of maintenance into the generators before a business trip I just got back from. That bought nearly a month of function. I also spend a ton on space travel. I bark on all 3 core worlds and I adventure on Dantooine mostly, so I travel a ton.
4. How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
I usually spend about an hour a day maintaining my business and character. This is a nice arrangement since I usually only play 1-2 hours a day. This way I can log on and maintain my char and log off having accomplished something.
5. What is your template?
I am still working on master CM, but I am pushing it harder now that jedi's are out. I want to master it. I am Artisan 0-0-0-4. Scout 4-0-1-1 (about to give up the 1-1). Medic 4-4-4-4. Marksman 4-4-0-4 Pistoleer 2-0-3-1.
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
I rarely do missions. I make enough not to have to for money, so I only do them for XP, so I take high level missions on Dantooine in groups. Usually I solo on Dant, killing long Voritors or Huurtons.
What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
Spend about 100k a day on resources, travel expences, and maintence
How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
I do missions, sell cm meds by email and a vendor which I cant seem to keep stocked
If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
Resources and tips
How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
70% fun 30% upkeep
What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
Lvl 32 - 40 missions no pets
1. Net cash flow is zero. I tried setting up a vendor and selling w/e. A few people bout some range stims. Currently I make zip from CM. I spend way more on locating resources for all the components such as over 60k a week more than i make and I never have on me more than 200k creds. Most of my money was spent on travel to and fro locating these dang resources.
2. Mission terminal is all I got atm. Tips from healing? ha! people dont even tell me thank you anymore they just run off. Just like "yo doc heal me". Be a little more polite I say. And no I do not receive any credit support from them, they do on occasion get me herbivore meat, but I pay also when they give it to me. I atm have master doctor to support myself. I buff people for creds rarely now as I dont like to sit all day in front of a starport or inside a med center.
3. I spend most 20% of my cash on harvestor maintenance and another 20% on travel. I travel each planet looking for Cm resources each week. The travel cost adds up. Ive also got to maintain a factory but take it down when not in use to save money.
4. 1.5 hours to 30 minutes of other play. I run around most of the day looking for resource spots on most planets.
5. Novice Artisan 0-0-0-0, Master Combat Medic, Master Doctor, Marksmen 0-1-0-4
6. I have my mount out. I have pistols 1 with my DL44.I can do level 32 missions on Lok. 9200 credit payout. This is what i do atm now most of the days for my cash as stated above mission terminals are my current source of cash alongside buffs.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
About break even, I'd say. There's basically no market to sell CM meds, and little call for Doctor meds (most players of both professions make their own, it seems).
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
Currently: combat missions, buffs for donations and the gratitude of those still standing because I'm there. Made some cash as a BE/Doc, and that nestegg is what sustains me today. (The BE grind was draining my will to live (play), however, so switched to CM/Doc instead.)
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
Resources (dropped artisan altogether long ago), though I buy at a discount (or get them for free) because of a wealth of generous artisan friends. Factory upkeep, travel, and equipment come next.
4. How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
Currently: 2:1 ratio upkeep to fun (fun being defined as hunts with friends and, perhaps, solo combat)
5. What is your template?
Combat Medic 3213 (will soon master), Master Doc, Marksman 4004, Scout 2030 (will soon drop)
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
DoingCL 20ish missions with a probot and CL 15 cattanking. Thesepay 4k. Could do harder butdoing so would consume more (medical) resources to survive, defeating thecashbenefit of doing them at all (I'm doing them so I can AFFORD medical resources for the big hunts with friends). Wonder howthis dynamicwill change with the upcoming pet changes?
Keep the faith, friends...
Lowabacca -- Master Doc, Company of Shadows, Naboo/Eclipse
1. Cash Flow: I spend more than I make each and every day.
2. Income source: I sell some stim B's on bazarre, do destroy missions, and receive some help from guildmates.
3. Expenses: Definitely harvestor maintenance, and travel expenses looking for rare resources that hardly ever spawn (and never spawn with halfway decent stats
)
4.Upkeep vs. Fun: I spend about 75% of my time and maintenance and the neverending search for resources.
5. My template is MCM, Artisan 0-0-0-2, Entertainer 0-1-4-0, Novice Scout, Marksman 0-4-0-4
6. Solo I can only get level 10-11 missions with 1K payouts, as I do not have a pet for tanking. I try to do group missions when possible, but this is few and far between because our groups are currently doing more Pvp.
Warryc's survey on TC
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
spending over 100k a week when I have all my harvesters down. I have pulled all my harvesters to build the bank back up after the mount patch disaster. I only have one account and one character able to provide income for virtual bills
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
I do sell some stims for cash, but my main source of income was level 42 small fambaa lair missions paying 12k each. Yes, a CM can solo these missions with a cowerly gurrek tanking, but it can be a challange.
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
The majority of my cash goes into harvesters, travel costs would be a close second followed by factory costs.
4. How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
pre patch would be 8hr of upkeep for10 hr of fun time, post patch would be 8hr of upkeep for 1 hr of fun time
5. What is your template?
Current template is MCM, Doc 3-4-3-4 (going for master) marksman 0-4-0-4
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
I could do level 42 destroy missions with only a cowerly gurrek out and I would suffer onlyan occaisonal incap. The main L42 missions I would do were the fambaa ( small, medium, and large lair) destroy missions paying 10-12k out of Moneia. To get the mission I would need to group with my 3 faction pets and the CG while browsing the mission terminal. I would normaly do the missions solo, group missions seem to take longer than necessary to get the same cash payout.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
i pretty much break even, since i go do missions whenever i need money or feel like it. whenever i have leftover money i give some to my boyfriend Odi (see below)
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
i do destroy missions. Odi has an architects that make the harvs, and he does missions to pay for harv/house maintainance. Warry (Kavedawg) also occasionally give me random stuff ![]()
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
the chunks of cash i give to Odi for occasional maintainance help. i also support all 3 of my charswith clothing, armor, and weapons (TC allows 3 chars max)
4. How much time do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
i spend most of my time doing missions or hunting with friends, which i consider fun
i don't do much upkeeping now, Odi does all my work ![]()
5. What is your template?
currently at master CM, 1-0-4-0 scout, and 1-2-0-4 carbineer. eventually i'll be master CM and master carbineer, but it'll be a while.
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
i usually do missions solo, with CL 19 missions between 2.6-3.2k.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
I basically live off the money I made when I was a resource dealer. Currently, my income is essentially zero, with huge windfalls coming in sporatically.
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
I support myself by buying current HQ resources and selling them a few shifts later.
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
Resources.
4. How much time do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
Mostly fun. I basically ask my suppliers to gather the resources that I am interested in. If I'm really bored, I go out and harvest various resources myself. Most of my gear was either brought when I was in the resource dealing phase, or given to me by friends.
5. What is your template?
Currently Master Combat Medic, 0400 Doctor (for Revive), 1302 Carbineer, with 15 skill points left over to bounce various Novice Professions as needed (ie: Entertainer, Scout, Artisan).
My avatar use to be a Master Combat Medic/Master Doctor/Carbine Specialist, and then a Master Combat Medic/Master Carbineer, but I like my current template better for the flexibity.
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
30+ solo. No pets. When I run missions, I perfer to do it with a group because I don't really need the cash or xp.
dont know if i have a real say...considering i got tired of crafting and restarted my char...but heres my 2 cents of when i was a MCM last week...

Ok, well, maybe not bling bling, but I need some info if you guys don't mind answering some questions.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
On my own...definitely negative...if i didnt do money missions1/week would be down 100-200k a week
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
I got my cash from teaming up with a MCH/Master Hvy Sword to do missions....between us we could do a set of endor missions (when they were good) ordath missions in about 30mins each...
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
Maintence fee's...even partnering up with another CM/doc...we still had to basically split the resources covered...with 12 resources needed...we had 6 harvestors running each just for that...then a power gen each..then a factory each...and a med house each...then i would have to hire a surveyor (yes i know its my choice) to find a loc as well...so paying for mine and theirs travel exspenses...cloning costs on places like yavin4...and spent close to 20k every 1-2 days in Doc meds...and like 60k when the med prices went up
4. How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
by the end...id say about 1hr of work for 4hrs of fun....but in the beginning it was like 6hrs of work for 1 hr of fun
5. What is your template?
Master Combat Medic/ Doctor (4/4/3/0) / Pistoleer (0/0/4/0)
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
with even my Coward grouped i got 15-17....even tho with my buffs on me and my cat...and poisons...i could solo DT's in the naboo base...or maulers...or nyax followers...
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character?
I am not really sure, but something such as 50k-100k a week.
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc?
I run missions with an ATST... quite boring for imperials and unfair for rebels. I wish CM could have special things to craft and sell.
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
I spend a lot of money in my houeses, harvester, and byuing new ones. then on new armors and weaponry (the cloning center seems to be my real house).
4. How muchtime do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
I don t really know because time flow very quickly during fun time and very slowly during cash-missions. it s about 50%/50%.
5. What is your template?
Master combat medic, rifleman 0002, carbineer 0002 (i was carbineer 4323, but i change for maxter rifleman... so a strange template atm
), artisan 0001 (please add a very little survey capacity todoctor and combat medic...)
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay?
Solo without pet: something like 4k-8k but i don t use any CM poisons during missions. with atst 20k
Abalam, master CM, Kauri
1) 2-3M income per week
2) around 500k per week profit selling doc/CM meds,selling loot to gain money
3) Old resources, krayt armor, rarely uber guns
4) About 8 hours a week to maintain 30 harvies, about 30mins a day to browse the bazaar. I'd say at least 20% time goes on supporting my main char and my shop.
5) Currently doc/CM/rifle4. After announcing new HAM system began grinding rifleman. Now its unclear.
6) No missions. Technicaly i can destroy anything, but have you tried hitting a 64k HAM lair with CDEF or even republic ? No way. And NO pok-e-mons. Sony was dead wrong when put nonfaction pets in the game.
1) My net is somewhere close to 0.6 - 1.0 milliona week.
2) I craft and help run a large CM Shop. I have about twenty steady customers 50 total. I also do quit a bit of mining when I am not mining for the shop. I have a alt character as our merchant.
3) I spend most my cash on maintenance for the six houses, eight factories, and usually 40-50 harvs down. The next biggest money sink for me is buying resources. It takes a bunch of team work to keep this company going.
4) I spend most of my time tending harvesters and crafting.
5) Doctor (2-4-4-0), MCM, Scout (3-0-0-0), marksmen (0-4-0-4), master medic (Thinking of dropping scout and picking up Master doctor) I dropped artisan and got an alternate character to do surveying and merchant stuff.
6) I so missions maybe once a month when I feel like doing something different. I also go out and PvP for about two minutes once a month.
1. What is your net cash flow per week of you CM character? (do you spend more than you earn on your own, or do you earn more than you spend on your own.)
I pretty much break even. I join large guild hunts when i'm going negative.
2. How do you get your cash, supplies for crafting, meds, etc? (I run a shop, I am supported by my character on a second account, I run combat missions, I heal for tips (yeah right!), my guild supports me, etc...)
Sell CM stims by bazaar and mail order. Guild Doc supplies doc components and guild supplies organic resources as well as resource gathering assistance
3. If you don't mind answering, what do you spend the most CASH on?
Harvesters
4. How much time do you spend with the upkeep of your character versus how much time having fun?
For the past few weeks its been about 80% upkeep(running harvesters, finding rare resources), but while making money from this, its been killing me. So I'm currently looking for a better balance of fun and upkeep
5. What is your template?
MCM, Doc 0430, Carbineer 2003(working toward master slowly), novice artisan
6. What level destroy missions can you do, what pets, etc do you have out, and how much do your missions pay? (please state if you do group missions for cash also)
Last i checked, solo missions(with my CG pet) could bring in 2-3k from faction missions, generally when i hunt for money i take part in large guild hunts for around 100k/hr after stim costs
