A few weeks ago on Chimaera Tatooine Avian was selling for upto 300cpu. Fortunately I do all my own harvesting so wasn't held to ransom.

Hats off to SOE. Not many companies could take the best MMO on the market and fu*k it up completely, that takes real skill.

I've paid 485cpu for 970/930 avian before.


Then I got the 13k of the same avian for 115cpu (got lucky).


Then I found 1k of the same stuff for 200cpu.


The 991/730ish stuff on Bria from two spawns ago was 70-80cpu IN SPAWN and anywhere from 80-200cpu + now.

Kettemoore is in need of a spawn like that..and the ironic thing is the people who rape doctors on organic resource prices are usually the same people that complain about the price of buffs.

Even at 100cpu doctors buffing make a profit.

the thing is tho that everyone seems to miss is some docs are filthy rich so they cant afford the prices to sell the buffs to get more cash, i know1 doc on my server who have no combat skills at all and another who has very limited skills for combat and they either get afew of us to help when we can or have to buy there stuff and im sure many more are like this, if you have the cash then your ok if your dont or a new player wheres the insentive to carry on ? there inst any, but hey im alright so f**k the rest eh... thats a pritty crap attitude imo after all its onlygame its not real money and whas the diff between having 5mill 10mill or 20mill in the bank.. it makes you no better than anyone else.


we have had 3 spawns now of avain on our serverwith oq and pe both stats in the high 900 mark.. most iv ever sold this for is 5cpu yeh i could sell it for ALOT more but why ? i already have more money in the bank than ineed andabout 5%of its from selling buffs of which iv stopped doing now.

some of the things that the dev's do to avain spawns really pisses me off! For instance: Uber spawn of Tat Avian Meat. TAT AVAIN! Unless im mistaken, you have Nuna's on tat, and thats it. This lead to the bigest nuna massacre of all time.

if it was tat avian, that's about right, isn't it? around 65CPU

I've seen it sold for alot more, 300ish CPU

Well that is a shade over 65cpu which isn't that bad if it really is great meat. You should come on over to tempest where ppl are selling 900+ OQ, DR, PE, meat for over 200cpu at points. People horded it while it was in spawn and now are trying to jack up the prices to obscene amounts.


BTW 760 units is enough for 6 more sets of buffs which will net you over 450k on my server so I really don't see a problem with a good meat going for a 65cpu which on Tempest is nothing anymore.

there have been reports on our sever of it being higher, this is the highest iv seen with my own eyes tho imo its a total rip off if i was to buy it i would not pay more than 20cpu for anything, lucky for me i have 1 or 2 friends that will help me hunt it for afew hours everyday if i want them to and i also hunt it my self and my guild will also have a meat hunt if i ask for the guild doctors.
