Thread: GUYS I NEED FEEDBACK ON WEAPON PRICING
Hello;
First off, I have NO IDEA what you said/asked in the second message 8]
As to pricing. Best is to shop the vendors and see what the rest are doing. On wanderhome server I use a simple scheme that seems to keep the pricing in the middle ranges fairly well, and is easy and quick to implement.
HPPSS = Hit Points Per Second Squared. Just take the MAX HP and Divide by Speed then square result. I tend to round UP for Ranged Weapons and DOWN for Hand Weapons. Tried using Average HP and other thangs, but the above is just so simple I just stayed with it.
As you move along, other things will be added. $2K added for Sliced Items, etc. It is advised to examine WHAT resources are used for each of the weapons also, so you can have a Minimum and Maximum Price Cap on the different ones. If you refuse to sell for less than 5 cpu, then just mark resource count X 5 as a minimum.
