maybe something like this lance would sell for 15 million, but i think even 15 million would be to high.

I'm not that impressed. I'd give you 2mil tops for it.
Sure the speed is good (but at master there is no difference between 1.0 and 4.0), the accuracy mod is nice (but combined with a masters accuracy mods the, +7 ranges on the lance make the mod moot), the damage is good (a little light on the low end) and the ham costs are sweet (buffed up who notices them anyway.
My big problem is the one measly, standard DOT.
You would think on an exceptional lance you would get a couple of sweet DOTs.
Furthermore ... wth does polearm evasion do anyway?

A simple guy like me with no source of income, other than missions, just can't afford 1-5 mil a pop for a new weapon.
that's why i love mokk and janta missions. i've made about 7 million just from these alone. can make a million creds in one set of buffs. just target the lair and use your best area attack with a few sweep2's in there. quick and easy money.
I agree that janta missions are quick easy money but
a) I don't have pets
b) I don't like hunting with a group (unless its friends)
c) I'm too lazy to beg people at the outpost to join my group to boost the terms
So I get stuck doing crap missions. Besides, I do about three runs of jantas and I've had enough. I get bored real easy doing the same stuff over and over.
I made my millions little by little, first I sold my Christmas Holo for 500k....then I grind mission, and got up to around 700k....after that I discoverd the dreaded Borgle Bat Cave..*shudder* I spenta few days down there ,....yes I was a camper...and looted as much as I could trying to beat the akf macroers, and the 3rd party program users...and sent tickets in on every one of them
....
....so I got a ton of tapes, not all good..but a few gems, I ended up selling a Medical Experimentaion for 5mil!..hoyl crap I know...after that I sold a few other decent ones..a mil here a mil there...and have started selling the ok ones in groups...like 4-5 Carbine SEA's that suck, but together you get a decent amoutn....
....after all this, I curently am at around 7-8 mil...and Im a shopping whore...man do I love buying crap...
Those NS lances would be a thousand times better if the devs could up the min damage by like... 300
well, send me a tell next time you're on dantooine. my city is an improved job market, so you get slightly better mission payouts. we just form a big group and hunt on our own. purely for the creds/xp. 3 sets of missions will net you over 180k. doing that once a day is a quick way to get to a mil in under a week. and that takes all of 20 minutes to do those.

yes, we're a rebel town, and no, we have no defenses set up. bases are useless. so are turrets. we had minefield by the shuttleport, but that got old fast.
but, we did just make our town a research center, so the high paying missions aren't there anymore. the mokk and janta missions only go for 27k now.
but also, i dunno how the others will feel about having an imperial in our town. i personally have no qualms about it. i've met you in-game, and you're a cool guy. the other people in my guild, i cannot speak for. /shrug
i know, i sound like an indian giver now. but after some overt imperials came into our town and got slaughtered by us, and having them talk the smack afterwards (why go overt if you didn't want to fight?) i think it left a bad taste in their mouths.
