Does anyone know of a way for an MBH, Mcarbineer, CM 4000. To make 60mil in around 2months. I do not have alot of time on my hands maybe 6hrs a week (for some of you this may be alot, to others it may be less than you play in a day) But is there a good way. I have done BH mission loot and come up with smuggler components only.

Just do BH Npc missions and hope for good drops. Sell what you get according to your servers economy. The loot is still fetching a nice price.

Another thing to do is keep an eye on your trade forum, and look for any spawns of 'creature resources' ie. meat, bones, hide. The most i've ever seen on my server was 200 cpu for tatooine avain.


Appart from that, stick to your NPC missions, they do drop some nice SEA's you can auction off.

Yep I have master BH, master smuggler, and one of the advantages is i can still collect resources on guild hunts, or even just check what certain resources are like when im bored

Setting a goal of 60 mil, in 60 days, IMO is pressure that no one should have to endure, certainly without 2 months (at least) to prepare for those 60 days.

Honestly, Do you think without having an established _______, You could make a million credits a day? Even in the height of Doctor, the buff bots (if crafting their own packs) were only profiting in the ranges of 500k credits a day. That being said, they didn't just roll over one day and become doctors with meds. They built up to get there, be it harvesting resorces, or making credits to buy the packs.

Creature Resorces have been generalized greatly, unless you need a domesticated meat which seemingly is only "farmable" on corellia. You can get nearly every creature resorce in the game at 200+ units a pop at a CL over 60. Your average is now 10CPU which IMO is alot, but without more scouts, the prices will never be undercut, there will always be more demand than supply in that area

Realisticly, 6 h/w for 2 months = 48 hours of playing time. That leaves you well under an hour of play to make a mil, eBay.....

some attachments go as high as 30 million on some servers...it actually isn't that unrealistic to make 60 mill in 2 months even with casual play just via bh npc missions


in theory, 6 10 million credit attachmentsshouldn't bethat hard in that amount of time.

Given limited play time, I would invest money in harvesters. These babies will make you money while you are NOT in the game.


For each lot that you have available, you will be able to generate roughly 786k units of resources over a 2 month timeline (assuming a 75% concentration is always available which seems fair). You simply check it every time you happen to login and make sure it is harvesting the highest concentration available at that time.


If you have 10 lots available, that is 7.8mil if you sell all of the resources at 1cpu (there are a couple people I know of on Flurry who will accept resource deliveries at 1cpu regardless of stats). That doesn't get you all the way home, but it knocks off about 10% of your goal without really doing much of anything.





while on Flurry, don't visit Ojes Yobe's Liquidation Vendors just 800M from Theed starport on Naboo (neg5219 3419) - cause they ain't there anymore! They are now exclusively located in Mos Athens Mall

Being a MBH my self all you have to do is keep taking Bounty Hunter missions....take low level missions 73 to 78 they seem to drop the best loot. In 3 solid days of just doing boring BH Missions i was able to make 80 million on selling off the loot i got from the bounties.


A trick to the bounties is 2 things.....dont waste your time driving all the way accross a planet to get your mark (like yavin, endor or dathomir).....either drop the mission or run a few errands on another planet and come back in around 20 minutes.....then your mark will more than likely be inside one of the outposts.


The simple fact is....the more missions you can take....the more you make......you should be able to do 3 to 4 bounties in an hour if you drop the long distance ones. I find that1 out of every 20 or so bounties will give you an awesome loot drop that will be worth 8 to 10 million.


Almost everything that gets dropped you can sell for decent credits. Post your items on the forums and be resonable
