Heh...Master Dancer here working my way up TKA. Spend a lot of money on doctor buffs to help me get experience faster. The way I make money...go to a Cantina, yell out that I'm giving mind buffs...people form a line and pay me 10K each for 10 minutes of work. Easily can make 100K in less than 2 hours. Granted, not as much money as some of the other professions, but it's what I do and I do fairly well with it. Supplement the income doing the missions, of course.

"200 Harvestors down, costs me about 460k a day to maintain and power them.......i pull up about 2,000,000 resources a day, and they sell for about 3-3.5cpu average. You can do the math.

Have you got prearranged buyers for your resources? The problem I've run into is that I can't count on selling all of the resources I'm mining - if you could sell everything you're great, but it seems like I only wind up selling about 25%. Seems like there's a ton of copper/steel on the bazaar, so either you have to go under 3 cpu or your sale gets lost in the hundreds of steel auctions.

Here is what Vubo (my TKM) does for his money.


He lives on Dantooine and only takes Piket Missions (two at a time) that pay roughly 9400 creds each. While on these missions I mask scent and milk the Pikets and then kill them for their Herbivore meat. I get the following roughly from every two missions:


  • 18800 Creds

  • 1500 Units Milk (usually get about 80-100 per Piket milked)

  • 1000 Units Herb Meat (usually around 50-60 meat per Piket)

The milk and the herb meat might not mean too much but I just ran an auction on the Naritus trade board for the Herb Meat and Milk from last shift (I had 23K Milk and 19K Herb Meat) and the two stacks went for a combined 800K credits (495K for the Milk at 21.5cpu and 305K for the Herb Meat at 15.5cpu). Both sets were average stats also so I can make more dependinig on the shifts. I only play an hour or two 3-4 times a week and one 5-6 stretch on the weekends also so this is a nice relaxing way to make cash without dealing with the day-to-day of checking harvies, etc....

I'm a Master Bio-Engineer and TKM. I use the TKM skills to hunt the meat I need to make BE tissues and to defend myself when sampling DNA to make creatures.

With this combo I can also have Artisan for surveying and medic 2104 for quick heals.

I do mining, like EVERYONE now does lol. Ok well most everyone. I used to be one of the few but now its like a non-prof FOTM. Dont even bother now its a bit too late, people undercut eachother to no end (saw 1 cpu at a shop once)


Also I like to gather hide as I am working on ranger.

Group with ATSTs, do Mokk/Janta missions for 26k. That's 50k a mission run, plus I ignore all the NPCs and go straight for the lair.


I can make around 500k an hour, so thats 1 mill by the time my buffs wear off.
