Well, I just wanted to know the most profitable way of managing the kingdom. I've been running on 100% maples, 50% coal for a little bit (was on 50% teaks earlier on to get some for Construction), so I get about 850 maples a day (which pays for the 75k for the day itself) and 8 nests of varying types, and I don't remember how much coal (only 1 gem though). However, is something like 100% herbs, 50% coal better?

 

 

 

Please, when telling me about this, discount the luck factor from nests, seeds, herbs, etc. Just an approximate average.

 

 

 

Thanks for the help!

There was a topic I believe on general p2p where i guy did 100 minning and 50 herbs and at end of like 20 days he was at 20k coal and tons of herbs.

100% maples hands down as the 1nest/100 maples you get, drop tree seeds which sell for 20k + easy for about 1/3rd of the nests. The maples sell for 100 gp np making up for what you spent on kingdom.

 

 

 

For sheer commodity value

 

it's down to flax vs coal I believe.

 

 

 

40 gp/flax => 100gp

 

91.6gp/coal -> 180ish gp

 

 

 

The cost/sale ratio is better on flax and the special herb seed per 600 flax has an outside chance of netting a valueble herb seed. Not sure how crossbows have changed the gem market though so perhaps coal's special og 1 gem per 150 coal is worth it.

 

 

 

Personally I'm not too impressed with the herb seeds flax has broght in so I'll likely use the other 50% workforce on goods I want to use.. coal and rare wood looking good as I'm about swimming in flax.

 

 

 

 

 

Cheers!
