Title: Gold
Post by: ilikere19 on December 14, 2012, 11:26:51 pm
Hey people :) just a quick question, my cost for JUST armor is about 26k, I usually use like a longsword or a German great sword, Just want to know with 26k for JUST armor if i will lose any money. Thx

just try it maybe? upkeep is not only by the total price, it also depends on your wpf for instance (if you have 0 wpf you will almost every round pay the upkeep)

And a 2slot will break faster than a 1slot weap.

With a German GS it might be a bit hard to break even, but playing with same gear and longsword should be fine.

I've gone up to 30k and still made money.
You should be good.

Are you sure about that ? I know having twice the same 1 slot weapon means each can break but I never thought 2slot weps break more.

That's what I've read :oops:

Yeah, I heard that too - 2 slots weapons break 2 times more or something like that. Not sure about that though.

Don't believe what you read. Especially from random strangers. Every time one of the devs have explained/mentioned how repair works, they've never mentioned anything like it.

My guess is people misunderstood them when they said the same item in 2 slots can break more easily (both can break).

He might not approve of this but I need to prove my claim:

Quote
Booth-kingpin

Congratz on the first booth in crpg Leshma.
I really wanted one, but was no use as I have too little assets and gold in crpg to use it effectivly.

You are now in an uniqe position to profit. Since you are a "very active" player aswell, you can make adjustments all day long.

I suggest you start marketmaking for loompoints. You buy loompoints at say 450K and sell them for 525K anyone that places bids close to your bids/asks you buy out. Ofc this needs finetuning.

You can compete very effectivly in all gold transactions , undercut the others that pay 5% tax both ways.. use it.. Put out 100 orders to buy +1 items at 250K and sell them for 350K.

Find investors, people with gold willing to invest in your booth, liquidity is the key here.

Best of luck

regards
Torost

And don't worry about spreading the knowledge, most people don't have enough money, time or wits to start a business like this. It was much easier when I was the only one with large booth. Profit was very high at that time :D
