As fellow Bria'n and Med Supplier I just think its about the quality +900er buffs getting pretty rare on Bria, so thas why they go up in price, for the usual 2.3k buffs 15k is ok. But not many hunters get us meat nowadays.. so that will keep the prices up. Nobody buys cheap 2.1k Buffs I found out..., which you could use to buff for 10k again.
Hey Jirob! So glad you decided to give an opinion on the subject. FYI for all those that aren't part of the Bria Galaxy. Jirob here is one of the best known buff suppliers in our galaxy. I have known him since the beginning of my time as a master doc and he has kept his prices constant and also the quiality (I think the lowest power Ive seen from him is 880, am I right). I am glad to hear from a supplier because I do think buff prices affect that part of the commercial chain also. So the main problem is Avian meat, correct? Does anyone think that avian prices will rise/lower after the revamp? I mean, hunter income from mission completion reward may go down, does it mean that they will raise the CPU on avian to compensate?

I think prices will lower. But actually before the combat balance. in my opinion it will start to lower within this next couple of weeks that they nerfed the solo groups. Main souce of income to fighting playershas become either looting (which depends basically on luck, so it can't really be considered a reliable source) and harvesting organics for Docs, Chefs and Armorsmiths.
Crafters will be able to offer less for the meat/hide/bone etc. that they need and will still get a great response from hunters. (Since getting 30k every 15 min doing Janta/Mokk missions is not a possibility anymore). But then in our turn, crafters will have to lower their prices in their crafted goods, since the economy wouldn't probably stand the current high prices for basically all crafted items.
It's an adapting process. Will take some time to happen. But I really don't see hunters asking for more credits to hunt (more than 150-400 cpu for avian? Their reasoning for saying that was that they could make a lot more credits with the solo group missions, but that's over now).

It may just be a glitch, but solo groups on Kettemoor server haven't been nerfed. People in my town (A player city on Dantooine) are still getting their proper solo pay-outs.
On the Doc subject. I sell my +2281/3hr.45min. buffs for 9k and haven't had a problem. I still make almost 6k per buff. I don't think my prices would change even if the buffs I buy went up by 150%. I'd still be making 4.5k a buff and that's a heck of a lot better than I can do on missions as i'm not an elite combat profession yet. My bank account hovered around 50k constantly until I started buffing and now it's typical to be around 200k (I spend a lot
). The only way I would charge more for my non-master buffs is if i saw master's charging in the 15k range. Master Doc buffs on my server go for 10-12k right now.~~

If any CH was smart enough he/she would form their own solo groups with their huge pets. Then charge a small price (2k each time) to group with them so you can get your two 30k missions then disband so you get the full price. 2k out of 60k isn't that much.
