Thread: Profit potential?

I'm trying to decide whether to put the skill points left over from my MPistols/MSmuggler template into BH or Merchant. I'd like to have vendors to sell my goods, but if I can't make enough money that way I'd rather just have some extra combat skills. Any advice?

what kind of "goods" are you selling?


why not grab the extra combat skills and use them to have fun with combat.


you can sell your goods to another player who has merchant skills for them to sell. that is what a merchant is supposed to do after all, right?

Personally, I would go Merchant if you don't have an alt. Luckily, I have a crafter alt so I don't have to do that.



A smuggler with a vendor will make 10x more creds than one without. Once you get in the routine of refilling your food/chem factory with spice resources, especially now that Pixie is back in demand again, you'll start to see an increase in profit.


Also, find a weaponsmith friend, and get him to make you a few crates of pistols on consignment. Slice and dice em (MAKE SURE THEY AREN'T CAPPED OUT ALREADY), and put them on your vendor also.



Again, having merchant is worthwhile if you don't have an alt.

Thank you both for the quick replies.


I don't have an alt, so I'm thinking I'll go for merchant to get the extra credits... I'm still not sure, though.


Any more comments are welcome.

My smuggler goods sell quite well with a well placed vendor.
