The good thing though is that once you start selling droids, they have the highest markup on Credits per Unit (CPU) of minerals used. This means that compared to how much it takes to build a droid, you'll make a much larger profit than you would with most other things.






I have to disagree here. I see weapon smiths buying the super materials at 100 cpu on the server forums - and you KNOW that cost is going to be marked up even higher to the customer. The petro-4 being so rare a lot of the time drives up the cost of stims to 50-100 cpu per unit.


You do get a pretty good proffit margin - once you start selling, yes. While it is better than the arch markup, however, it is not the best overall.
