Hi,

I was just wondering about the selling price of rocket launchers?

I was thinking of making some but saw that they take 5 whole proton grenades!

I sell these at 5k each most of the time (discounts for crates).

So that alone makes them cost about 25k.

And thatswithout other crafting costs (4 blaster power handlers, 8 projectile feed mechs, 2 weapon scopes, metal, steel, etc.)

Add to that about a week or more in factory time for it and it's parts!

I would have to sell at 35k to 40k each!!

Is this why the weapons smiths are dissappearing?! The commando's kill them and loot their rocket launchers!

I made a few and cant remember the stats:

uses were between 29 to 31

min 1800+

max 3500+

So my questions are:

1. Is that crafting process bugged or did someone find this funny!

2. Does anybody bother making these?!!

3. Will anybody buy them?

4. At what price?

5. Does mean all commando's are poor?!

6. Do you like pie!?

Shoot...... never thought of that.

Never found them for sale myself. I think you figured out why.

5k/proton? most I ever paid was 40k/crate for protons, I get RL for 20k/piece and they're VERY good (+44 acc@ideal and very nice speed/damage 7.5 1272-3608...the new batch is even better) The other consumables I get for 12.5k/piece

Yes...commando is very expensive

When i was a weaponsmith i sold them for 40k each on Bria and i could not keep them in stock.

One Note on making the protons for the rocket launcher, quality doesn't matter. The damage of the rocket launcher doesn't depend on the the damage of the protons. Secondly, spend most of your points in accuracy.

Making rocket launchers is a very factory heavy process so make sure your price takes into account the time that you have to put in.
