Isell 409/43 usesStim-Bs (veggie type) for 1200 each in Gorath. It sells out quick in the vendor and the bazaar and they're so easy to make.

Just calculating the 16 herbivore X 80cpu (what I and most other docs pay for the stuff) = 1280 credits. And thats just one resource...

With good LS you can easily crank out 400+ power stim packs with a standard CRDM..


Voila! No herb meat!







yes...you really only use LS for Stims...so why not make them good? I tried this out last night...using bacis CRDMs (someone here posted that you should, so I said what the hey!) And I made 408 power Stim Bs with 43 uses. Not bad at all.

I find even the most crapy ACRDM is better than the regular ones, I buy whatever is on the bizzare in quantity good or bad, and use that in my stims, adds a liitle extra power and costs little, the rest I mine up myself, my last set of runs were pow-450 uses-41, sold them at 1500 each, easilly made 1000+ credits in profit a piece, kept 6 factories on components, 2 on stims, first thousand sold outquickly enough, plenty left in storage, I get quite a few requests for decent sized orders, probably due to the lower pricing I have them at compaired to many others on the server, but at a million+ profit a run, as long as there selling well, I think my priceing is right. Of course before buffs became so prevailant, I could move more than4 timesthe product,atabout 800 a stim.Oh well, it keeps me in top end armour and weapons.

True. But it's heavily dependent on what the recent spawns have been on each indivdual server for Dant berries and Tal water. If not, you'll need herb meat for the kick- even low quality herb meat is better than a basic CRDM.

I am a recent Master Doc... are you saying that if you make Stim B with ALS, ABEC and CDRM (not ACDRM) you can make sufficently powerful packs? The LS and BEC should both be advanced though, right?

Why do you bother crafting them if you can sell the resources for more than the final product? And with med resources, you easily can.


If Docs selling for more than you say are greedy, then I have a label for those who sell for less than the market value of your resources ... you're just plain stupid.





PWN3D!






Not PWN3D (that is a word? ) since i make a major profit from my stims, which are also the cheapest around and the best quality, so I sell lots of them, making me tons of cash , and also giving me a large market share.


Also if i wanted to sell resources, Id do that, but since like to craft and enjoy the challenge of getting ever better products, thats what i do.


a Stim B has 12 organic, 12 inorganic + 3 components (80 units) thats 104 units, so im turning 0.2cpu into nearly 10cpu , thats a very good profit margin(about 4800%).


I dont see how this makes it plain stupid.

I have made way more in the long run (also consider time involved crafting vs. plopping down a harvester) selling resources then I will ever make crafting docs. However I to like the challenges involved of finding the right combos to make better and better medicine. Unlike you though I don'tlabel someone because they do not follow the same procedures as I do. I hope your a$$ fits through the doors.

On my server, you would make 10x the profit for 100x less the hassle just selling the resources you used. To be honest, there are very few doc's that run stocked vendors anymore on my server. If you ran a vendor in the town on my server near the tusken fort, you could sell your wares for 10x your listed cost, and do good consistent sales.

They will sell for 2500 each np on our server. If you decide to make veggie stims, non adv chems then you can lower the price, but if your using adv chems you can charge basically what you want for them.. Trust me people pay dumb money for stuff

The same way it makes those who price higher than you 'greedy'.


You don't care about your time and effort, then that's fine. Accusing others of being greedy because they think (including myself) that it's ridiculously silly selling crafted items at the same or lower than the market value of the resources it takes to make them- is ignorant.

market value of the resources in my stims is around 3 to 6 cpu, so im still ahead of the market, which of course varies from server to server


and as u know if i price below the market rate, ill get more business too and still return a profit.
