"It's obnoxious to complain about a 10k pricetag when you're about to rush off to make hundreds of thousands of credits with missions you couldn't do without buffs, wearing armor you couldn't wear without buffs spamming specials you couldn't spam without buffs."

There is somebody complaining about it? I've not heard any, though that's as a receiver of buffs not as a giver (not ready yet, still working on MD). The only complaints I see in line is wait time or when someone can't find a doc at all. If anyone is complaining about a measely 10k, they need a moron TEF that allows everyone to beat them even more senseless than they already are.

Hi,
a buff set it's not easy to make, asking for 10k for a full buff is not even close of the realy price, to me, for a full buff it should be 50k or more.

If I'm packed and they all start to be obnoxtious, I'll just price my buffs at 15k-20k depending on the situation. Sometimes, I end up being the only doc in coronet/theed/or Mining Outpost. I do as much as Ican to keep up with the line. Hey, if they don't want the buffs, it's like i'm really gonna stuff it down their throat. *evIL grin*

It's sad that there are players who would complain about that price. And it's even more sad when people ask ridiculous amounts of credits fornice avian/herbivore meat which we need for "buff" packs

I had a guy actually try and talk me down on price from 10k the other day...but 1st he wanted a sample (stamina) before he tipped me. There was a long line and he got frustrated when I refused the discount. He then came back a little later and said "Ok" and wanted to pay my price. Well he ended up cutting in line and driving off a few good potential customers so I told him to keep his cash...I didn't want his business.
Must of been a kid of something because he then sent a bunch of his buddies to harrass me while I buffed. So I got up and walked away. Can be frustrating sometimes...

Ok first off I and handful of other doctors are now charging 20-25k for a set of buffs that last 3hrs .. mainly because of the skyrocketing cost of avian meat but while i was doing my buffing session i polled some of the players and the said they dont mind paying that much beacause they can turn around and make 500k or more doing missions on dant. So you tell me why do some others constantly whine saying we are ripping them off ?

Its been a long time since ive heard that, good to see that someone appreciates us and has a brain! For all the bitching and annoying things we have to put up with I wouldn't say 50k is near perfect. Next time you think that doctors dont put up with a lot of **edit**, we charge too much and its an easy job, i want you to go doctor and try it for yourself, then talk!

Higher buff prices would probably keep morons from running around trying to kill everyone as well.

/agree
Buffs should cost more all we really need to do is all raise our prices....I doubt that will happen anytime soon.If they could buff in cornet for a day we would never hear another buff price complaint again.

I've been on both sides, and I think 10k is cheap as hell if you think about it.
** That is assuming at least 2000 and 3hr **
