Ok. I'm a 4,4,4,0 smuggler. What is a good way to do spices? Please tell me the fastest, the cheapest, and or the best way to earn money.
Thanks for the help.

Make shadowpaw until spices 3, then do thruster head for spices 4

By the way, you won't be able to make any money until spices 4, when you can start making neutron pixie and muon gold. Those are the only two spices that you will be able to sell with any regularity, and with any kind of profit. You'll be in the hole on resources until then.
A problem with smugger is that it is not the money-maker people think it could be. You won't make any money on spices until spice 4, and nobody really wants a slice from you until you're a master smuggler. Also, faction delgation and buying bonuses aren't great until master either, so for most of the profession, you looking at little to no income for it.

the great thing about this tree though is your resource quality doesn't make the slightest difference. Spice is the same irregardless of resource quality so go buy the crappiest cheapest stuff around and grind it. Shadowpaw to 3 then thrusterhead to 4.

Yeah I dont know why people want to go out and waste a bunch of time looking for good spices they can use for their spices, when they could be out socializing or whatever they do on their spare time.

Ya use a crafting macro. You can find one in just about any artisan profession boards usually stickied somewhere. Might take alittle searching. Look for Hologrinding or fastest way to level "insert profession here" threads. You need 6-10 food/chem tools and around 7k metal and 7k organic to be safe. I forget the exact amount. Using shadowpaw in your macro will not necessarly be the fastest but will be the cheapest. Once at spice 4 then you can think about starting to sell spices till then nothing else really sells. Nuetron pixie and muon gold are the only spices anyone really wants. If you are looking to deal in spice you'll need to get a food chem factory sometime in the future to sell in crates. You'll sell more this way then you will individual containers of spice. Crafting macro can have you spice 4 in about 3-4 hours so it is definately worth the hassel of looking them up and then finding out how the work.
