MTK: Fishy question + Update: new questions


Aidos Drakon

Recommended Posts

I want to start doing Manage Thy Kingdom. The goal is to gather flax for fletching at a low cost. I have heard many people say to put 10 workers on fish and 5 on flax. Why? Do people buy swordfish? Will it make some money back? Wouldn't it be better to have more workers on flax or do I need them on fish to make money back? Sorry if its a nooby question.

 

 

 

All advice is appreciated! ::'

flax makes quite good money too.. you're be saving alot of fletching if you spin the flax that you get. hrm, i think you get about 1.2k flax per day if you put 10 workers on it, so that'll be about 600flax per day for 5 workers? think you can spin that much per day?

Raw fishing folllowed by cooked fishing are the best money makers on the ge. These are followed by flax and mining, which alternate everyso often for the place of more profitable, and since you cant gather raw and cooked fish at the same time, most people making money gather fish and flax or fish and coal. Fishing set to 10 should pay all the bills I think, since I ahve left mine or maple at the moment and I still make good money. If you can spin 600 flax a day, which is about 5 workers, than everythings grand. If you can't spin the much, send some workers to minign for some coal (either to sell or use at a later date). If you think you can spin more than 600 flax, try taking workers off of fishing and put them in flax until you get more than you can mannage. You are going to be getting your flax at under GE value (I assume, I haven't looked at the MTK and GE price sheets side by side recently), so any money you make from fishign at all is just icing on the cake.

Thanks very much all! I would have responded sooner but I had my wisdom teeth taken out and was doped on meds. I believe I can spin 600 flax daily. So I will be break even with raw fish right? Also should i sell the fish on ge at mid price?

Sell the fish on the GE at mid. It'll take a bit to sell, but not bad. Or try selling it 1 gp under marketplace. It'll sell quite a bit faster like that. Also, if you look at the guide in my signature, it suggests farming. I've never tried farming, so I don't know how good it is, but this guide suggests Raw Fish, Cooked Fish, Farming, Flax, Coal.

I gave farming a try from idle curiosity. If you could sell all of the seeds you get you'd turn a nice profit. However, most don't sell and you get your boxes clogged up with slow selling items for days.

 

 

 

Fish, flax and coal all sell rapidly and make good profit.

because a lot of people will just dump it in mid and just waiting for it to sell

 

 

 

fish makes around 65k a day (10)

 

flax makes around 25k a day (5)

 

 

 

both are profits

Yes, thank you for adding that to this conversation... :D

 

 

 

And, also, you should actually clean your herbs that you have the level for. They are often around 200 gp higher on the GE clean than unclean.

300k + (4990 flax @ 90 ea) = 749, 100 gp

 

 

 

So thats roughly 100k at day. The extra probably was from the good amount of gems from the caskets and a half key.
