Zero's Rough Pricing Guidelines

ZeroVega · 01-28-05, 09:46 AM

Being a long time Layo player and crafter, I've tasted all crafts in one form or another (buying or selling) I've come up with my own little guide lines, that were pretty solid.
Rings/Amulets
+1 Save Against Disease 400/Exceptional 1200
+1 Save Against Poison 400/Exceptional 1200
+1 Save Against Cold/Fire/Electric/Acid 300/Exceptional 3000
+1 Vs. Mind Affecting/Death 500/Exceptional 3000
+1 Reflex/Fort/Will 1000/Exceptional 5000
+1 Ability Int, Wis, Str, Cha, Dex, and Con 3000/Exceptional 8000
Multiply the above prices by 4-5 for their greater cousins. Ie: Rings that give +2 Against Fire 12-1500, exceptional 12-15'000.�Also, amulets sell for�0.5 x the base price (Ie: Amulet of +1 Disease save +200) more.
+2 Ability Int, Wis, Str, Cha, Dex, and Con 20'000-25'000/Exceptional 40'000/45'000 (The + or - 5000 is for those who supply diamonds)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enchantments
Enchantments I, II, III, and IV for weapons.
Acid: I=5,000 II=10'000, III=20'000, IV=40'000

Electric: I=3000, II=5'000, III=14'000, IV=25'000
Silver: I=3'000, II 6'000, III 9'000, IV 12'000 (easy to make Via alchemy in comparison to other enchantment's but the stack with elements so pricing needs to be close there)
-------------------------------------------------------------�

Electric I=5'000, Electric II=25'000

Anyway that's about all I have. These are the prices I usually use when selling, and the one's I expect when buying. Haggling is fine, but having people offer you a low price for an item! Undeard of! Sago being undercut by that much for Lion Leather armor is just not fair. Heck if the did that in the real world, I'd have m $10 game boy, and my $20 PS2. Haggling, cool, chargin squat for a very useful item, just because it's easy to make. Not! Gah this was fun! ZV-

Nice guide and well done. I think some of them are out of line with the recent changes but you yourself said you weren't sure on the areas where I think this is the case. The new hide and studded armors are much better with their AC bonuses to damage types. This means they price higher than you may be used to. Also in general your leather prices are much too low with the re-worked suits. Not all of them, but some of them for sure.
Also, with the metal armors re-worked, I think you'll find your prices there may be too low, though I haven't looked at much. I'm just guessing based on the level req as price dictates level req to a degree. Level req on Iron Full Plate now is 12, I doubt it is as cheap as 7K, though I haven't put a lens to one of the new suits yet.

ZeroVega · 01-28-05, 10:12 AM

Yeah, I was bored and didn't really feel like hoppin IG and crafting right now, so I just threw this together. If you'd like changes, just PM em to me and I'll do it, though I figured it would be just something for people who aren't too skilled at all crafts (like me) and want a bit of wisdom on what to pay.

EDIT: So, yeah. Raised the prices on Leather stuff by a good 500-2'000 depending on what it is. I still don't think +1(+2, +3)�AC Vs. Piercing/Slashing is all that great, but I guess every bit counts depending on what you're fighting. Also raised the prices of Armors 8K for Full Plate Iron, and more for Adamantium, Colbat, and Platium. Think it's probably pretty close to some good prices now.

dfiremann · 01-28-05, 10:35 AM

I wonder if we can freeze this post as a guideline? Seems some pretty comprehensive information in there.

Destropterammer · 01-28-05, 11:59 AM

Nicely done. THough i'd like to say that your armor prices are a "bit" off

Adamantium for once, more then hard to get too. Most people will die trying. An adamantium plate has a +1 AC. 5 point soak (unless hit with magical weapons) And maybe more cant remember..

The Cobalt armor pal!...i got one for sale for 100k. hehe. Its about as hard to get as the Adamantium i think (no i dont want to try no) But way harder to make. And the stats for the Cobalt armor is pretty neat too. something like +2 AC soak 5 (unless +2 weapons) and more.

ZeroVega · 01-28-05, 12:00 PM

I'll go ahead and change it again. Alright, I've got Adamantium and Colbat Full Plates at a respectful 38'000 and 60'000 each. I figure as long as people don't go selling way below that I can assure you they won't be flooding the market. I think it's a fair price for what it offers..... and Harg, errm..... hold onto that Colbat armor set for me eh?

Pankoki · 01-28-05, 01:17 PM

+2 Stat rings and amulets at 10k are way too cheap. 20 is better.
The resistances are way too cheap, should be more around 20 too. It takes a level 20 enchanter and tinkerer to make them.
The IV enchantments once again too cheap, also around 20+.
The compound bow parts once again too cheap. These make the best bows in game and no way should it be sold for 12.5k
Most of the prices you mention are based of the V1 economy and they don't apply anymore.

Nuzatch · 01-28-05, 02:38 PM

In defense of the +2 stat jewelry, emeralds themselves go for 25-35k so 10-15k for a +2 seems close to right.

Pankoki · 01-28-05, 02:41 PM

Whoever is selling emeralds for that price needs to be hanged by their toe. THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN EMERALDS OUT THERE!!!!

Leanthar · 01-28-05, 02:44 PM

If an emerald goes for 25-35k how does a finished product only go for 10-15k?� Doesn't make any sort of sense.� End products are more expensive than the raw material.

Pankoki · 01-28-05, 02:45 PM

Nah +2 is diamonds, he's saying that people are selling +3 items (emeralds)�for 20-35k and thus a +2 item should be fine at 10-15. Which is completely absurd seeing that +3 items are the best possible items you'll ever find on layo.

Kethryc · 01-28-05, 03:11 PM

How closely do these match the eyeglass?

Pankoki · 01-28-05, 03:22 PM

My emerald jewelry is priced at 45k. From the lense. Like I said a lot of these prices are from V1, I know the III rods are not priced at 10k and many other stuff.

Leanthar · 01-28-05, 03:33 PM

Sadly the lens of pricing is limited by what we have done to the 2da files and then new stuff that does not use the 2da files etc.� It is hard and it is not even close to a perfect system.. but it is a limiation that we need to work with.

Ozy_Llewellyn · 01-28-05, 04:04 PM

Could kill the lens of priceing, make an easly publicly accessable post with the breakdown of item values. Let the master craftsfolk set up the priceing lists. And have DM/World law/polocy dictate it. Just a sugestion I'm throwing out there, mostly because I'd choke if I saw +2 jewelry sold for 10-15K.

ZeroVega · 01-29-05, 02:40 AM

� Well, thanks for the input here, I was just kinda pulling these out of my wazoo. Sadly someone needs to heimlich Ozy cause he's choking. +2 Jewelry, sold for 10-15K in V1 if you brought the diamond, and with a diamond mine, and more people out there circulating the suckers, the prices on them haven't risen. Also, most of the prices I worked out of my own accord. Perhaps a DM would like to run over em, add a few items, and shift prices a little. I feel this economy should be one that charges out your rear pretty much any high end item, so the higher the prices the better. I just don't know what's too high. Also just because there's a base price, doesn't mean you can't haggle. Ie: bring me two boxes of skeleton knuckles and I'll drop the price off this ring a thousand. Plus, prices like this would give way to some possible RP for a PC run black market (as suggested by 'someone'). Anyway, just kinda throwing out what I'd sell em for, and asking for interpretation and change. (Though I admit, I wouldn't sell +2 for any less than 20K if it was me making it, and +1 would run you up a nice 5K)

Dorganath · 01-29-05, 03:22 AM

Seriously....since the lens is admittedly bugged/limited at this time, perhaps it would make sense to publish an out-of-game minimum price guide.

Good stuff, ZV. A good start.

Leanthar · 01-29-05, 03:34 AM

GM Team... Please work with ZeroVega and come up with a price guideline then we will go from there... Filter everything to him and he can get it organized and sent to me... Once I agree with it I will post it.
Good start here Zero.
