Get a ranger to check the cl or troll the boards. The more popular pets have a post of the cl. Or ask anyone you see with such a pet.

thanks......the only question i have is how do you know what cl a creature is when its a baby ??





If you're a master scout, you can see the CL of any creature by using the /examine command. Obviously, anyone who is any flavor of Ranger will be able to do this, too, as they must be a master scout to get the novice ranger box.


The CL that is listed on your datapad is the CL of the critter right now, not necessarily its adult CL level. The examine command will give you the adult CL of the critter.

Oh God, here we go agian, another moronic price thread.


If you are such a crappy businessman that does not want to make money and can only get people to pay minimal prices for your crap product fine.


Personally, I charge 45k for a rancor, 35k for a gurreck and dont even sell that other crap.I bet to somethose pricesare chaep.


The fact I sold 20 rancors last week tells me I should have charged 50k plus


Surprisingly, i have sold a few Kimos (after telling people they CANT be tamed ) for 50k each. Nice house decoration


Use your heads people.


CHARGE WHAT PEOPLE WILL PAY.


Get maximum profits. If you are one of a handful of BE, why are you artificially lowering the price?

Good catch Tal-N. I was wondering about Zen's mysterious comeback.

Hey guys, I got a really late start into armorsmith, and I can now make Chitin. I'm wondering what pricing is on it. I got chestplate at 3k, helmet/leggings at 2.5k, biceps/boots/bracers/gloves at 2k (7%-13% resists). Is is priced too high? Is armor just not a big seller anymore unless you do composite?


Thanks,

It all really depends... where are you selling it? Bazaar or Vendor? Also, do you think it's actually *worth* selling yet? There are some fairly annoying hide requirements for Chitin... you *need* to sell at a high enough price to justify all the work that may or may not go into gathering those hides... (largely dependent on whether you buy them or harvest them)

I only sold Mabari until I got up to Tech IV... then I started working on Chitin... that was mostly because I was kind of embarrased about the quality of the stuff I was making...

Most of the Chitin I make normally goes for around 30k... but that's just on my server, my advice is to take a look around at some armour vendors in the area and find out what they're charging... (and the quality) then price your stuff accordingly.

Keep in mind that you will get a lot more exposure on the Bazaar but will probably have to price your wares lower...

I don't think I made a dime until I got Ubese and it became available onShadowfire 3days after I got there. As for the lower items, I still see some Advanced Mabari, I makea couple sets every two weeks for special orders, sure its only like 2300 a set, but gets some nice heat reist and effectiveness(45%-49%/15%-17%), so heat is nice and i know those guys used it against FWG5's. Just so many people bashing Mabari, its great starting out and its easy on the ham and provides decent resist, if only we could add a layer to it . But like a previous posted said it depends on the server, I was on Chilastra and armor was dirt cheap, it wasn't always the best, but it was still cheap. Chitin to me not advanced and or not in the mid 30's isn't worth more than 900gloves/1000arms and boots/1100 legs and helm/1200 chest. That is what I would sell it for.

I sell mine at 3 cr per resource where it just says metal, hide, fiberplast. or even ferious metal. Not to specific.


Where it starts saying nertrionium steel or lokian leathery hide, I charge 6 per. And I'm still told by some of my pa mates that it is some of the most inexpencive armor they have seen. When I get master I'll have to rework the prices.

For Chitin, I charge 3-4K per item if it's in the 30s, and 7-9K per item if it's in the 50s (Advanced). I sell it about exactly as fast as I can craft it without losing my mind, which is fine by me. I have money now and I like the feel of a well-stocked shop.


I'm more interested what others are selling their padded for?

I give my armor away for free (I've only got Tech II though). I'll probably get Tech IV and then start selling Chitin at cost or making Adv Mabari and giving it away for free. That doesn't really help you I guess, but I'm not in Armorsmithing for profit (until I hit master anyway). So... sell at cost.
