Ok going to SF worked, but it cost me 2340 to give him 702 so instead of it costing only 80cpf it cost me 267cpf.

He wasn't Imp so could that be why it cost so much more? Or is this the regular conversion rate?

Arg so I lost 130k because I told him 56k because I'm very new at the whole faction delegation thing.

I wouldn't have done it if he wasn't begging me to sell him fp.

Well, thank you guys for the help I apreceate it.

Looks to me that the smuggler's ability to buy faction points is useless. Unless you're really really desperate for fp.

/sigh




Faction transfer rate depends on your rank, FP sales only really become profitable when you're a colonel. I suggest you read through the FAQ when you get a chance, it'll save you a lot of time down the road. I also suggest Dreven's Faction Selling Guide.

because many of us actually learned about our profession before coming in here and demanding answers. Maybe you could have read the faq before trying to sell FP. Then you would have not only known the commands, but you would have realized that there are different transfer penalities based on your rank, what those exact penalties are, and how much you should charge to cover your expenses.


Or you could just complain that selling FP is broken when it clearly isn't.


That's why I called you stupid. prove me wrong. Me, I'm a jerk due to many long years of practice.

Well dlc3007, I never said anything about it being broken. This was my first time using fp transfer and normaly I don't get involved with it. I've been a smuggler for over 5 months and have a successful slice and spice shop (more spice these days.) I only became Imperial about a week ago because of joining a guild and before that never had a faction so even though I have read the faq multiple times I never payed any attention to the faction transfer part.


I was not demanding your help, but requesting it, though I was in a hury it probably seemed like a demand and for that I apologies. We all make mistakes and sometimes our thinging can get screwed up when we feel like we are under the gun. I don't spend alot of time on the boards, but I am in the game alot and havemultiple characters so I'm not as much an experton prof as I could be.


No matter what I wish you would notcall people names and put them down especial forum noobs which I am for the most part.


Thank you Thomen, Akiram_Glocken and even you dlc3007 for your help. You are experts in you feild and I give you major prop for that.



And yes Karma sucks dlc3007 but I hope that you don't get treated as badly when you are at your worst and dealing with something that you are new to and do not understand with some crazy guy breathing down your neck.



Thanks and mtfbwy

Is the Coronet recruiter the cheapest place for a Rebel Master Smuggler to buy faction points and faction items?


I am currently buying Large Tower Turrets at 960 FP on Chilastra in Coronet. Is this the lowest price I can buy them at?


Thanks!

The cheapest recruiter to buy from will be one on a planet where your faction has the largest lead. Ask each recruiter how you're doing in the war, and he will give you the score. Get the highest ratio you can in your favor. For example 40 to 10 is better than 200 to 80.

If the enemy faction has a standing 0 you can get large turrets as cheap as 750 FP
