Thread: Price check on R2's Bob, Price check on R2's
I need some info on the following:
RX model with medical enhancer and chemical crafting station.
Rx with weapon crafting station
what are the best values on these? can they be put into one droid? How much would said droid(s) cost?
I love droids. but not enough to make them myself.
but not both stations......
After the patch though (the one with vehicles) you CAN put both stations into a single droid.
personally , I'd charge about 25k for the r2 droid with both stations and medical After the patch.
So i'd wait and save yourself a single droid purchase.
Incidentally , i'd charge (roughly) 22k for each droid pre-patch
However, I can say that if you want both crafting stations in one droid, you're best off waiting until after the next big patch.
Then you need to convince a DE that you WANT that combination, and that it's OK if it doesn't work... Because most DEs will be convinced that it's a waste of time, and likely won't know about the changes currently in place on TC.
That being said, I would make an R2 with 110% medical, food/chem crafting and weapon/droid crafting for probably around 18 to 20 thousand credits. I'd need to check my spreadsheet to be sure, but that feels ballpark-correct.
Medical R2 110 med with Food/Chem Craft - 26k
Crafting R2 - 15k
I sell an R2 with a L6 Medical module, Food & Chemical CS, and L6 Item Storage module for 20k. Knock off 2k of you don't want the Item Storage, but most people prefer to have it included.
I would sell an R2 with any single crafting station for 13k, but I've never had anyone ask for that. There's really not much point in making such a high-level droid with a single module... if that's really all the customer wants I would try to convince them to take an R5 because it's much cheaper (I'd sell one for 8k with any single crafting station module).
Its interesting, I base all my prices on the chassis
My chassis progressions goes something like this, based kinda on coolness & the more parts.
MSE - Never
DZ & Treadwell if i want to sell a droid cheaper than 15k to someone
R5 10k
R4,Repair,Surgical 15K
Protocal,R2 20k
R3 25k
Probot 25k
BLL 100k cuz i dont want to make them
My written price list is basically 5k per module, add em up.
My standard package is an R5 with 10 item and crafting for 15k and I feel thats very fair. Also Surgical w/ med 110 & Food/Chem for 25k. Both sell well. Especially surgical.
Probots I never sell, and Im not even trying to until the patch. As a DE im pretty ashamed of them. I also do combat and you learn first hand how worthless they are.
