I've calculated them to give a rough margin of 25% over just selling the iron/coal (it'll probably still be wiser to sell iron/coal to players, but now you will have the option of earning some decent money on that lucky drop.) want to experiment with different margins or do the same for other items? No problem, load this into Emacs org-mode: ``` | item | chain mail | light plate | warlord plate | warlord boots | warlord helmet | steel shield | |---------------------------+------------+-------------+---------------+---------------+----------------+--------------| | iron sale price: | 100 | | | | | | | coal sale price | 100 | | | | | | | infantry helmet sale pri: | 1500 | | | | | | | leather patch sale price: | 150 | | | | | | |---------------------------+------------+-------------+---------------+---------------+----------------+--------------| | craft price | 20000 | 50000 | 100000 | 35000 | 10000 | 20000 | | ingot count | 5 | 10 | 15 | 8 | 9 | 6 | | coal count | 10 | 20 | 30 | 16 | 18 | 12 | | helmet count | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 | | leather patch count | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | |---------------------------+------------+-------------+---------------+---------------+----------------+--------------| | ingot+coal sale total | 13500 | 27000 | 40500 | 21600 | 24300 | 19350 | |---------------------------+------------+-------------+---------------+---------------+----------------+--------------| | total price with crafting | 33500 | 77000 | 140500 | 56600 | 34300 | 39350 | | markup: | 25 | | | | | | | total price+markup: | 41875 | 96250 | 175625 | 70750 | 42875 | 49187.5 | #+TBLFM: @11$2..@11$>=@7*(1000+5*@2$2+10*@3$2) + @8*@3$2 + @9*@4$2 + @10*@5$2:: @12$2..@12$> = @6+@11 :: @14$2..@14$> = @12 * (100+@13$2)/100 ``` I know @Ledmitz said that there should be a thorough review of all prices, but let's be real, who's going to do that?
