Since you are a commando, you shouldn't have much trouble making money through combat. Even when I was a novice commando, I could do some pretty tough high paying missions with a little strategy and planning.


One big thing I see in game that makes pretty good money is harvesting creatures. Some people pay 10, 20..even 50 cpu for certain meats and hides. So if you have the skill points pick up novice scout to harvest creatures although I can' t see how your a master musician, master entertainer and a novice commando....you would be 3 skill points short.


I'd say drop some entertainer and get novice scout and maybe a couple of boxes in the creature harvesting line. Go out to dantooine or any planet that has good resources, join a small to medium size hunting group and just hunt with them for the resources. Stock up, sell some on the vendor, find some crafters who need your resources and sell to them. ONe good thing to do is to find one or two crafters that you can make a deal with to provide them with certain resources.....they can pay you a flat rate or what ever deal you work out. That way, you can make money from both the mission itself and the money that you get from selling the resources you harvest. It might be a little tedious at first, but once you make a good amount of money, it only gets easier to make money and your ways of making money will increase.


If your really feeling lucky and/or you think you can survive, the most profitable way is to loot rare items and/or highly wanted items from medium to high level mobs. For example, you can easily sell a +5 speed attachment for minimum 500k - 1 million. Just make a auction in the trade forums. even the +1, +2 armor and clothing attachments are valuable depending on what kind they are.


harvesting resoruces and selling rare loot are the most profitable things you can do in this game besides what merchants, weaponsmiths and armorsmiths do....sell high priced items (mostly overpriced, but people still buy them) even then those kind of crafters still need to acquire resources....you can be that source.

LOL-Now I have your attention.


I am looking for some pointers on pricing for slices-Can some one point me in the right direction for a post/forum or drop some replies to my post with opinions.


BTW I know each server will be different, but it might be a good idea just to have a good old discussion about cold hard cash !!!


Cheers.

(Not that there is about five hundred various threads on pricing the value of slices)


10k per slice, client provides all the components.


If you want to participate in the component market (and you should), buy components cheaply from BHs and Jedi (usually newer BHs and Jedi demand less per unit) and resell them to loot vendor and resell vendor players. I don't recommend providing components to your clients (friends, family, guildmates are fine) just because we no longer control the influx of these components - and market forces are insane.


At least that was my opinion prior to my mini-protest.
