Thread: Seeker prices, 40k for crate of 25 okay ?

And if you look at the schematics for both, the seekers actually take more resources than the probes, so marking them more expensive than the seekers is kinda strange.
Seekers take 172 resources, Arakyds take 173. Arakyds also require an extra factory run over Seekers, so pricing them higher is not unreasonable.

Oop, my bad. That's what I get for not checking my figures before posting.
Regardless, if you price probes higher than seekers by more than a few 1k credits a crate, you're doing your community a disservice. Just this wookiee's opinion.
I couldnt keep them stocked at those prices though.
The way I craft mine is:
- Factory run of 602 GP
- Factory run of 301 Mem
- Factory run of 300 Seekers
Arakyds (makes 60 crates)
- Factory run of 903 GP
- Factory run of 301 Mem
- Factory run of 300 Arakyds
With 60 crates of each type of droid I can run my vendors for about a week. With this system I can have 60 crates of seekers and 60 crates of arakyds on my vendor every 3 to 4 days. I keep them priced at 5K for Seekers and 6K for Arakyds. Arakyds take longer to make even if it almost the same amount of resources, therefore they are priced higher. This gives me about 660K a week in just BH droid sales, that pays for the factory time, resources, power, and hall maintence. I have 7 other vendors in my mall bringing in more credits.

Wouldn't it be more efficient to make a run of 602 EMMs, then use that run for both? I personally never do runs smaller then 1k of emms and egps.

only assuming you're doing them at roughly the same time
