Based on the prices I have seen for the +9's auctioned, I would say 50 million is the starting bid.

Minimum 20 million for that tape. That makes a Master instantly into the best weaponsmith possible.

only if you suck and fail all the time... I rarely get failures anymore in my research facility player city so I ALWAYS hit my resource gate on damage.. those extra 1-2 points could only go into HAM (piss poor investment since buffs are a dime a dozen these days), range (not so great on final combine but fantastic on subcomponents), and Condition (not so bad a payoff since 1 pt gets you 50 more in condition). However the majority of players barely take notice my ranged weapons are +20pts higher in accuracy than others (just by using scopes and adv barrels) and I'm not entirely sure they notice condition. For those pissing and moaning over a whole 2 point ham reduction.. learn how to do stat migration and drink friggen breath of heaven (and get doc buffs when possible .. I rarely go anywhere w/o them now). A high Focus/Strength/ or Quickness will curb your ham costs immensely. If your hologrinding marksman your gonna end up /overcharge'ing all the time so high Condition and accuracyis really helpful to those people.

Here is where the skill helps....

Unique no-second-chance crafts like Krayt tissue weapons, Vibro Motors, Nightsister Lances.. this is the only arguably invaluable application of those bonuses. If you want to get into this market (and a VERY small market it is) then you almost have to have these tapes to avoid losing any investment from a moderate success at the wrong time. Again those extra points (assuming your not recovering from a moderate) can go into Condition thereby extending the life of this rareity.

Based on real credits value.. a +24 tissue (if it really exists) would be worth oh.. 4 or 5 million.. however, due to some highly abused credit duping.. everything is going for outrageous prices now.. +30 tissue scatters whose stats arent as good as pre-nerf going for 2 million? Only if it took you 15min to dupe that 2million is my first thought on that.

Right now on Eclipse a +4 tape auction is currently at 8mil and could go higher.

You could easily sell a +24 tape on our server for 30mil.

if you really have that item.... holy jeez, you might want to consider becoming a master weaponsmith yourself... that tape is worth 8 digits easy.

nah... more like 5% skills (knowing where the buggy spots are in the Damage percentages), 5% inventivness (nothing like a +123 @ ideal range laser rifle to spice things up), 5% luck, 5% persistance (ever spend an hour crafting the same item over and over for that ONE lucky experimentation??) and 80% resources
