Ello, I just got Blueprints I and made some advanced MSE droids with a medical module, storage compartment, and an a armor 1 module. I plan to sell them if thats even possible, but dont know how much for, Just wondering what might be the price range on these things.

I doubt you'll be able to sell 'em for much.

Most droid engineer don't even sell those droids because of utter frustration.

at low levels the best way to level a DE in my experience anyway...


Get as many harvestors as you can, harvest...sell half your resources and use the other half to grind. Then when you can afford it upgrade to medium harvestors, those should serve you well for the rest of the grind, using the same grind with half and sell half formula.


At least thats how I did it and did OK.

Or you can do what I did, find a rich friend and borrow 1M creds! You'll have M DE in no time!

Charge whatever you want. I won't be making any to compete with you. I hate those things now! :-)

Amen... I dont even make MSE's anymore. In fact I have like 3 crates of them and give them as a gift to people that have bought a certain price point of droid. Its not much, but they think its kinda cool having one anyhow.

I won't be at this level for a bit but I sell the standard mouse from 1100-1150 depending on the module (those are bazaar prices - 1000-1100 at my shop). And yes, they Do sell and I will not be grinding a single droid.......I tend to look at materials and base my prices from there. Good luck BrainScratch and I hope this helps .

Try and give them away. You'll build better relationships by giving them to folks (You gotta build them anyway) and they are far more likely to come to you when they need something a bit beefier. MSE droids represent a way for players unfamilair with droids to ease their way in and since they don't have to pay for it... we make customers for later.



Also, consider making a list of folks you give them to and sending an email when you level up. "Hi can make better droids now - happy to meet your needs - blah blah blah"


Drop a few on the bazaar by all means - but I can usually give more away than I can sell

Thanks for the pointers. I'll probably sell em for a little less than 1k, but probably while running around in bestine. Doubt anyone would go to my house since its out near entha, which is a ghost town right now.

I can get 3k for anything with a level 1 med module in it (dont get me wrong though sales arent fast) - the reason for 3k? Well it was as much as I could get for them on the bazaar before I got my first vendor :-)


Since I'm not a DE yet I buy all my stock and as long as I can get a good price on R5/DZ70 with level 1 med (which has never been a problem) I wont touch an MSE with a barge pole regardless of what its loaded with)


Having said that once I hit novice DE you may find I start selling them since thats all I'm going to be able to make :-)

It may be worth pointing out that I used to sell basic MSE's (no module) for 200cr each (and this was still at a good profit) as a kind of novelty item (but this was back when all droid could store items even without the storage module)
