I agree with you guys what an A S S. Doc is about helping people out, and as long as your doing that then someone is going to be willing to let you help them. Man what a bad attitude, and then to say your a grinder on top of it, thats just lame. I have spent a little over a million in the last month or so on my crafting supplies and even with that much spent the best I can get is 850 power buffs fully experimented. Did you ever stop to think that maybe the resource quality changes and not everyone has 900 OQ everything to craft with? Man go away, bug another profession board, I guess whatever your next holo is.

Hey I just LOVE doctors who do the hologrind and then drop it! I'm a doctor in it for the long haul and wouldn't trade my proffession even to be a Jedi ( well maybe SOMEDAY, but not for a long long time).


You guys that whine and drop just give the rest of us your repeat business and you probably don't have the fortitude to do the buffing business for long anyway. The public can get annoying at times, but they can also be a great source of income, good laughs, and fun roleplaying.


As for competition with other doctors, newbie or veteran alike, the more the merrier, I say. I absolutely hate being bombarded with twenty /tells while buffing a line of 10 or more players because therearen't enough doctors online. Any help I get is usually appreciated. If it's a slow night and the lines aren't long and there's too many competitiors out there looking for business, I just find something better to do with my time.

I hate to be an ass, but punctuation and proper capitalization are your friends, they make your message much more understandable.

As others said, on a weeknight, for those of us who have to get up the next morning for work or school, a 4 hour duration is wasted since we're only likely to be playing 2-3 hours anyway. Also, 2400+ buffs are usually unnessessary as well. Mine (and I'm a master) only hit for 1800 and they keep me alive well enough. I just don't have the money to blow on the super duper resources and experimentation points. I even manage to sell my +1800, 3 hour buffs for 10k. And I play a wookiee. So they aren't selling because of my physical attributes. They're selling because they are good enough for the hunting that people want to do.





I had a Force sensitive character, with 23 and a half boxes ground out.
I had a master creature handler.
I had a high lvl crafter character.
I had a Bounty Hunter that I hunted PC Jedi with.

My game is dead.

Alright, there are a couple of issues here. First, it is indeed mind boggling that people are willing to pay the same amount for a lesser product, but on the other hand, it may be worth the loss of 200 points to them to not have to spend 10 minutes waiting in line. So while may you see it as them paying 4k too much for 200 points less in buffs, they likely see it as paying an extra 4k to save 10 minutes or more waiting for you to get around to them. After all, while 200 more points in buffs may be important for someone taking on high level Janta missions, 200 extra pointsprobably willnot matter when it comes to pickets and quenkers. But 10 extra minutes could mean two additional missions, and 6k to 8kin mission payout, not to mention XP.


You need to get some perspective. If people are willing to pay more for lesser buffs, they must have a reason, and it is not for you to decide for them that they should be purchasing your "ubber" buffs. Neither is it for you to decide that somebody else should take 4k less when someone is willing to pay them more. If your buffs are worth more, then you should be able to charge more. On the other hand, if you do not want the competition, then undercut their prices. But the truth is, the market will decide who is willing to buy buffs from you and who is not.


Besides, you do not have a right to any location, even if you are there first. And you do not really want it to be that way. If it were, then using your logic, if I showed up on Dant with my current 2541 point buffs, you would have to leave.

Newbie Docs making 2100 stats? I dont think so. Im master Doc, and with the current resources I have with full experimentation i can get 851 pwr packs. With my BE clothes, droid and master Doc that is 2100. I dont have the money to splurge on factory crates of Bivoli when Im not buffing a line of 10 people straight. I got to Dant and Dath a charge 12K, because it is 10K in Coronet and it costs more than 12K to fly to coronet and back and purchase a buff. The service I provide at the amount I ask is reasonable. Also, for a very long time 2000 stats was the norm, newbs made less than that and better docs hit or exceeded it. 2K stats is still the standard to 10K creds, at least it should be (on chilestra). 2400+ buffs should be going for at least 15K. The buffs that should be going for 6-8K should be sub 2K buffs. I believe that with Bivoli I could hit 2340, which is still not 2400 and that is the BEST I can do with my resources. If you dont like it, suck it. What can you do about it. As other people have said, it is a free market. Yeah some of the things are annoying, but that should only be the case when they go against precident or decent behavior. Precident is 2K for 10K. Decent behavior is not moving in and undercutting the other docs that are around you. Anyway, it is your customers fault for choosing the other guy's buff. If your buff is better and they cost the same amount, he should choose you, unless you are being rude or the customer is pressed for time. I for one am also glad that you left doctor. If you hate it so much and only wanted the money you shouldnt be a Doc, be what you enjoy being.

them not having money is tehir fault its called being lazy


i have sold out of buffs man times and had repeat customers its irritating that people will pay the same amount for buffs becayse shes naked

ignorance must be bliss i suppose anyways i made 20 mil in a week or so from doc so it served its purpose


i was just venting and dont really care just bored at work, all newbie docs should be "relocated to tat."






Sounds like you should have made a female character.

Ummmm...I actually don't agree with you at all. That is the best that those docs can do, therefore that is what they're doing. Also charging 10k isn't all that much, if they're charging the same as you then bump your prices up. Plus the Doc prof isn't about money, if you think it is go become armorsmith and have fun making armor 24./7. Does this make any doc with worse buffs than you a newbie doc? If so then from the way it seems that you're stating your side you would be a newbie doc to me since I create +2500 buffs. Anyway, don't be so angry about this, just play the game and have fun. If you disagree with how the "newbie doctors" are operating then change your prices, not yell at them for theirs....


OH, and not everyone has 1 million to spend on doc resources. I myself have spent over 50 million in about 1 1/2 months, but I don't look down upon people that have worse buffs than me, I just was lucky to have the money to be able to get the good resources.

Are you serious? I've never had a problem selling quality buffs. I simply announce the price, strength and duration, and poof, lines form like that. So many people want buffs There is easily room for 2-3 docs on dant, sometimes 4 on coronet. I have yet to not completely sell a set of buff packs in one sitting.

So let me get this straight: You dropped doc because your customers were buying buffs from other docs that sold substandard buffs at prices equivalent to yours? And you blame the other docs? Do you know what a free market is? The problem is with the customers, not the docs. If they want to pay bling for "ok" buffs, they'll do just that.
