First post ever here yay :P

 

Did some quick calcs and if you suply the seconds yourself its possible to make cash with herblore.

Tried this today and only took me 15 mins to collect the seconds.

Btw 4222.5 xp can be gained a day for free, 30k a week.

If ill take your avarage numbers ofcourse.

 

this might extend your data pool some

Wow thanks for the info sir.. much needed!!

 

Now I can make more and not be broke anymore :D:D

 

by the way props on getting a math degree, I'm planning on doing something with maths

Thanks for the head-ups, already got one day's worth of herbs. Sweet, sweet cash....... :rolleyes:

Tip.it has the solution for the discussion about the number of herbs you get. Choose Minigames - Kingdom management - Costs of materials for a graph with percentages. Using those percentages I got this:

 

Number herbs for 50k each day		60.50		

Herb	Percentage*	Number	GE Price	Total gp

Tarromin	22%	13.31	698	9,291
Harralander	19.8%	11.98	1,448	17,347
Ranarr	         5.6%	3.39	10.8k	36,592
Irit	        12.4%	7.50	3,299	24,750
Avantoe	        13.5%	8.17	1,706	13,935
Kwuarm	         7.5%	4.54	6,246	28,343
Cadantine	 6.4%	3.87	2,380	9,216
Lantadyme	 6.7%	4.05	2,916	11,821
Dwarf weed	 6.2%	3.75	4,346	16,303

Total 1 day				167,597
Profit                                  117,497

I'm not too sure about this - MTK is a very long term sort of thing and there is a fairly high chance the spike in herb prices is only short term. For now I think I'll put 100% fish 50% herb, just to be safe :unsure:

It doesn't matter what you have it set on as it's gathering; just what it's set on when you collect, so there's no reason to worry about being "safe" with it until you go to collect. Just thought I'd let you know.

Oh damnit I always forget that. Thanks for the reminder :P

Who's to say that the maxes aren't outliers, though? And there might not be any minimum amount of herbs you would collect. Maybe the 13 irits was just luck, and the average is actually 6. There's really nothing that supports your conclusions. I seriously doubt that you have a math degree, because if you did, you would know that this "data" isn't reliable at all.

 

Your reading into this WAY too much, its just a bit of advice that a helpful player has happy to share, there are guides out there that give definate data.

 

As for the orignal Kingdom Management method, thanks for the info. :thumbsup:

There is a great article about managing the kingdoms. I concluded by reading this, Farming brigns more money than herblore in average. You usually get 1 or 2 rare seeds for example pineapple or maple seed and a lot of expensive herb seeds: e.g. torstol, ranarr, kwuarm, snapdragon. You can work with the remaining 5 workers on other resources, Herblore highly recommended; but Fishing gives also good money.

I tried MTK for the first time and also did 100% fish 50% herbs. In one day, I got these:

 

 

Not too bad... why have I never tried this before? <_<

Wait, what's this about changing it before you collect?

 

Do I have to say "no" when he asks me first if I want to collect my resources, then change my workers, and then collect again?

 

Someone explain please :razz:

Exactly. If you say no, you can change your allocations and if you collect afterwards, you will get your resources as you chose them just before that.

Man I wish I knew that... I had like 3 months into my kingdom when the update came out. <_<

Time to switch to herbs methinks :thumbsup:

Problem is, the prices are artificial and so are highly volatile. It might be worth it to unload your kingdom daily and put them on the GE while speculation lasts - which, as far as I can tell, is nearing an end.

I wouldnt say all herb prices are inflated- I can see lantadymes rising for a long time still as magic pots are barely selling each update.
