Thread: How big is the Business?
I understand that server populaions dictate most of our business, but I am very curious about weapons sales as an entire business...If you would be so kind, could you post the average amount of weapons you sell per day, and the server you are on .
We aren't likely to cure Cancer, but I was trying to get a feel for how big the weapons business was to the economy.
one word: BIG
think of it- weapons decay pretty fast if you use them often enough, if you want to get a good slice, you need to by large quantities of these weapons. As someone levels up or changes professions (espicially with these holocrons, which are a WS dream come true, as people constantly buy new weapons for their professions) they need to buy new weapons, and can and will get new weapons as the get more certs. Add in the fact that almost every week, there is a new spawn of materials that can make weapons stats go up and hardcore players will NEED this upgrade in weapons, and you have the largest business in SWG.
And dont even get me started on commando consumable weapons ![]()
i sell at least 70 weapons a day. i think my highest 1 day sales were 150 wepaons. i am onthe radiant server.
On average, I sell about 500 weapons per week and this doesn't include bulk or custom orders.
50-60 on a normal day. On a good day I can sell several hundred weapons. Ive been around since the first week collecting resources and making weapons. I have the best of everything in large quantity.
revenue= top quality resources + location + (.5 x inventory)
