Doctor Archive

I am trying to get a feel for the price I should set my resources at. I'm a ranger so I usualy have quite a big quantity of avian meat.

I recently came across some at 900+ OQ and PE. What would be a good price for that?

Prolly between 20 and 100 credits/resource depending on what a Doctor is willing to pay.

I had a doctor who said I would not get more than 5-10 for such quality. I thought that was a bit below the mark....

Top Quality 25 use buffpacks sell for 6k, seeing as each takes22 avian meat and also high quality reactive gas, dolovite iron, herbivore meat, and class 4 liquid petro (all of which are equally hard to get on shadowfire) , the avian probably shouldn't cost more than 700 creds/pack meaning a max of 30 cpu or so.

Keep in mind for buffpacks decay resistance means quite a bit too

Find the best planet with the best avain meat. Tell the docs that you are harvesting it. Auction off 10k. You'll get a quarter million or more credits for it. 25 CPU is the min for great avain meat. You may have to wait one or two shifts to get the 50CPU stuff...like PE and OQ over 900. Don't bother harvesting anything with out one or both stats over 800...OQ is the most important.

well it all depends on situation and how much you have he wouldn't like to pay you alot for it by eventually he will.

here is what you do : collect as much as you can of it while it's up , be mr. hog. and then auction it off for a minimum 20-30 cpu. you can keep it for a month before selling it too let them run dry. when doctors runs out of avian meat that is the time they will pay anything to get more. i've got like 15k left of what i've been using for a while and now i'm starting to consider going into the bid war over new spawn 1000 pe 700oq avian currently someone is offering 55 cpu for it and it just spawned.

I saw a guy charging 40-50 cpu for what sounds like the same stuff andIisimply could not bring myself to buy it. I wouldn't pay over 35 cpu. But, then, I didn't end up with the resources, either. I offer reasonably priced buffs (6K) and I don't expect to be gouged for theresources. If resources keep going up, so will the buff price!

I won't pay more then 10 CPU for anything a harvester can pick up , but for meats it's another story...

I'd probably pay 20-25 myself , but i'm pretty conservative....

From what I can gather from the posts so far around 30 cpu is the average price but some docs are willing to pay a lot more. I guess it depends on the person you are selling to. I also thing if someone is going to buy 10k of resources then there can be a discount involved. Or even a few free buffs.

Thanks for the help It gives me a better idea of what you doctors want and what you need it for.

it's usually the other way around .people will pay a premium for large quntities of meat aspecially if it's, and they should. it's time consuming to harvest meat not plant and forget like harvesters. and avian meat is much harder to get than most meats.

other than that there is a major burn of resource crafting high quality enhance packs . it's best to make them in a factory than by hand and you need alot of meat to have all your packs with consistant stats.

We use avian meat in 22-unit lots, and can make crates of 50 enhances at a time, plus a couple of 22-unit lots for a template. Selling them in 1200 unit sets will give us 1100 units to make a full factory run of one crate and enough for 4 experiments, with a little left over. Ideally, 1310 units gives a full run and 5 experiments, or 2 half-runs and 5 schematics.

Math for herbivore meat works out to 800 per crate and 90 for 5 schematic tries, or stacks of 890.

I would appreciate greatly anyone who sold meat to me this way, I won't end up with odd-lots cluttering the input hopper. Shoot, I appreciate that you cared enough to ask

*Sigh*

OQ IS NOT the most important stat. In fact, it's exactly equivalent in importance to PE and DR is also important unless you're happy having buffs that wear off quickly. (I'm not going to get into why, but, if you really want to know, check the FAQ.) I have a hard time guaging the DR, but use this formula:

0.5 * OQ + 0.5 * PE

That will give you some value between 1 and 1000 - the higher the number the better.There is also an excellent thread in the Ranger forums that you should probably check out. Here's the link:
