Those must be brandy without BE additives.


I can make Brandy with 20 uses, 410 + mind, willpower, focus, 34 minutes duration with my Chef Alt.


I think I'm going to drop Master Smuggler and keep just FD. Everyone wants the Brandy while my 200 crates of Muon Gold is rotting even after I lowered it to 4,444 a crate of 25.

250k a crate, Holy cow! Talk about taking a hold on the market and people's wallet!

rofl, you should hop on Bloodfin one day. I regularly see brandy going for over 300k though it's getting rarer these days as more chefs are showing up. Let the price wars begin!

I live on Bloodfin and I never paid prices like that. The most i have ever paid was like 25K per a full crate and it had 18 per a use. Hmm, maybe it's that I have connections.

/grin could be it, McSire. I'm a nobody on Bloodfin. Just an honest smuggler trying to make a living the illegal way...

Oh, and I've never even bought brandy because of the prices I've seen the good stuff going for. Well, that and I have like 10 crates of muon I can't seem to get anybody to buy =/

I still sell a good amount of Pixie, but hardly any Muon anymore. Then again, with Vasarian Brandy, I dont use Muon anymore.






Man, even with brandy... muon is still useful. Imagine... you already drank your 2 drinks of brandy and you're fighting a rifleman... /headshot3 /headshot3 /headshot3 ... getting low, you pop some pre-nerf mind food like glazed glucose ... /headshot3 /headshot3 ... oh crap, my food and drink bars are full! what now?


Well, I think you see the answer coming... Muon of course... and with all that brandy, your downer isn't as much an issue anymore. Just a thought.

I have a vendor loaded with Muon at 5k/crate....and they sit an collect dust. Spices just do not stack up against the chef foods out there.

I still sell between 5 and 10 crates of muon every time I'm on for a few hours... as I said, even though brandy IS better than muon, they still stack and that's why people will continue to use the stuff. Especially with all those rifleman and CM's out there destroying that blue bar.

Drop individuals on the bazaar with info to your vendor.

As for Brandy killing the market, I've seen no such thing yet. One reason might be some of the samples of it I've seen. Brandy that was +263... I did a double take. Barely HALF of a muon buff, albeit for just over a half hour instead of a few minutes but still...

I didn't buy any of that stuff though I'm still itching to try out those xp boosting munchies... Maybe Monday when I'm off.






Well I droped my price from 13500 for a crate of 25 (I was selling 40 crates a week) to 7500 a crate and I still can't move the stuff. Since I buy my resources I can't drop the price anymore.

Brandy that is +263 is way better then Muon Gold. It's filling is less then 50%, so you can take 2. That gives you 526 to all 3 stats for 30min with no downer, and 15 min after taking it you can add a 3rd on top of that. Also one crate of brndy has 250 uses (125 if you dubble them). One more thing, the master chef and the master BE in my guild have gotten together and are putting out brandy with 600+ (charging 450,000 a crate too) and they can't keep up with the orders they are getting. As a matter of fact, I gave the chef admin on my 2 food factories since I haven't used them at all since the patch.

I have talked to several guild members and all have said the same thing. Taking spice is no longer something they do before the fight. They all still have muon gold on the hotbar, it's just that they don't need to hit it 3 times a day anymore.

I love the new brandy, and I'm happy that the chefs got some love. I would just like to see spice redone, and redone soon.

Heh, when Publish 6 first came out and chefs were able to make brandy, some chefs actually started selling crates ON AUCTION in the trade forums like as if it was some rare loot item

250k for crates of 25 with 20 uses is pretty cheap(if it's that40 minutes, 400 plus, 20 uses stuff).


That's 500 uses right there and each use is 40 minutes with plus 400 plus to your 3 mind stats.


Per use, it's way cheaper than Muon because it last 40 minutes and ZERO downtime.
