Can I simply pay an artisan to survey, find s good spot, buy harvesters and pick up the resources I need for crafting?

I have a small house and medium house - how many harvesters can I have?

1. You can pay an artisan or ask one of ur friends to survey you a high percentage, you however have to place harvesters because it takes 1/10 of your Lots (ctrl c) (how many lots the character has) You add power and maintenance and select the resource you want and turn it on. The artisan can place it for you but then it would take his lots up and he would have to give you owner and he would have to pick it back up so unless ur paying him a lot i very much doubt it


2. You have 10 lots per character. Houses and harvestors take up lots. Harvestors take up 1 lot and houses depending on the size -Medium-small-big. I think a small house take up 2 and medium 3 and large 5? I cant remember i hope this helps


Small and medium should = 5 or 3 so thats 7 harvestors or 5 harvestors


Dont forget to rate how helpfull i was please

The only thing I would add is that you will wont to save a lot or two to use for factories. Each food factory takes up one lot. You may want to pull up one of your houses and use the food factory as your storage (each holds 100 items).


Trying to find a surveyer can be a rather large pain. Assuming you have the 18 left over skill points after mastering doc and a fight class you may want to switch between scout and art. Pick up Art. when you need to survey. It will be slow going since your survey skills will not be very great but at least you can do it on your own time.

Actually large houses = 6 slots. Everything else is correct, though.

when i didn't have surveying i found it best to get a guildmate to go with me but doing it on your own is MUCH easier and less bothersome.


the most efficient way I have found is to take the novice artisan, and go up in the business tree, then i get me 2 vendors, i use those vendors for storage and elimate the need for anything then my 2 lot small house (just put ur stuff in travel packs and put the packs on ur vendor for 999999999 credits). then i get 8 lots to play with for my extractors andfactories.

i have 3 artisans workign under me i provide them each with2 small houses to put there stuff in and 300k per week. in return i get there 10 lots for whatever i choose to have in resource that week. usually one artisan has talusian water vaporiors. another has lokian wheat both very important in the crafting process and i usually have the last on either tat fiber plast or dant berry fruit depending on what OQ and PE is the best at the time


I do require the artisan to find resources atleast 900+ OQ and 650+ PE and some times you cant get the resources i need at that price. then its a matter of my choice again on what other resource i would like them to mine some people think the price of dishing out a mil every week to get resources is expensive but what you dont realize is how much money you make on resources this high of quality and being a master doc/master swordsmenon my account i can choose to buff, make buff packs, or do janta/mokk missions, all for money whatever i feel like doing at that point in time


all you doctors that wanna charge 50k for your buffs need to grow up noob docs give us a bad reputation money isnt everything you guys its for the joy of the game drop doc if you dont like sitting in town and talking to the regulars you buff 2-3 times a day. the nicer you are to people the more they will donate. My regulars tip me from 25-30k for buffs that i charge 15k for over charging people does not get on there good side and i dont undersstand why some people dont understand that. i was buffing people for free 2500's and i earnd more money that way just becuase people appreciate you are doing something for them and your not the greedy capatalist fat guy sitting behind his comp complaing he doesnt make enough money.
