I would estimate having 6 factories (use 3 for sub components, 6 when crafting enhancement packs), and 8 harvesters (one for each resource needed in an enahcen/sub comp). After harvesting the resources, store them in house, deed up the harvesters, make the schematics, undeed the factories, load em up and run em, rinse and repeat. I am just starting out in the resource gathering phase of making buff packs (I should actually say the money making phase to buy harvesters to get resources phase, hehe). About how many resources per day can a harvester get? Can avian meat be harvested? I know this is a bit off topic, but input is appreciated, thx.

Rule of thumb is 1 BER = 1,000 units a day on a 70% spot. Plan on harvesting at least twice as many resources as you actually require. If you cut the margin too close, you may end up with spot shortages of resources which can shut down production. Particularly on resources that don't spawn all that frequently (dolovite iron or class 4 liquid). You can always sell the excess resources.

damn good advise. Always make sure you over mine not under mine.

well i run my lil shop on tarquinas. a very low population server, but i make at least 1 mill per day, without any real advertising. I'm a 12 point doc and sell amoung the best meds on tarquinas.
i sells my packs for 20-25k depending on power/duration. and usually craft 100 per week.

WOAH!!! What did you put up there 500 sets of 950 Power packs at 100k each? lol thats the only way I can imagine they sold that fast!
More like 930 power but more like 300k per set.
Like anything, if your the only one making it, it tends to sell well.
Winnah!!!!
That was probably the day I had 5-10 docs ask me where to get buff packs after Ardente got outa the biz.
Marrow is one of the best crafters out there.

Typically my formula for pricing is:
900+ Power, 12k+ Duration, 31+ Charges= 180k Currently I have 921 Power, 12.2k Duration, 31 Chareges, 90 Meduse for 180k
>900 Power, 10-12k Duration, 30+ Charges, 90 Meduse= 100k
I try to keep 300 sets of the lower quality stocked at all times, and then I keep as many 900+ stocked as I can.

I would sell them for as much as someone is willing to pay. Ya, I am crazy that way.

I'm running 6 factories constantly for buffsets, pushing out 300+ with these, 3-4 factories running on meds, hardly can keep the vendors filled since few big wholesale docs left.. and I'm glad daxx jumps in to keep meds available..hehe
and btw. i stocked up 1t of avian and nearly as much herb now.... so I'm good for another 10000 sets..

i had 24 factories running recently.. had to take them down cos i need some oats that spawned..
running them gave me a massive headache.
2 x 6 for creating 999 abecs
2 x 6 for creating 999 abecs
2 x 6 for creating 666 acrdms/ 333 sds
once the acrdms were moved to the finishing factories i had 12 factories free agian.. then.. in go the abecs, and the cycle starts again...
1998 sets in storage now... still need got another 200k of avian to craft into packs 
- however i might take a break from crafting for a couple weeks. My head is seeing schems, and factories and exp bars.. argh.. /flail

Wehave 39 factories dedicated to med production, set up in groups to service sets of products. Through our three shops we average about 50 buff sets a day and about 2,000 units of all other med products with Stim B/D/E being the biggest sellers-although we've sold about 6,500 units of Rez Kits in the last month because of the new grinding method folks are using at the village.

There are actually two docs in the business-myself and An'na. An'na focuses specifically on buff production, although I do some buffs through one of our shops. An'na sustains high buff production rates because she's been able to build a serious network of excellent hunters and she pays well for harvests. We had a spawn of Avian Meat named Snecoxi that An'na got almost million units of-finding the herbivore meat to make those packs was a significant challenge as well.
