i realize that there is a board for buying and selling ranging supplies, but i have searched through it and have not been able to find the price of steel arrow heads anywhere. does anyone know a good price for them?

 

 

 

i would assume about 10gp per head, but i wanna know if im cheating myself or others by marking them at that price.

 

 

 

thanks! :)

I have never seen them on the market before but lets work it out:

 

 

 

500-650 (price of steel bar)

 

/

 

15 (heads per bar)

 

=

 

33.3 - 43.3 (cost per head)

 

 

 

Steel arrows sell for 35-50 each so I would not sell your heads for lower than 25-45 each.

 

 

 

Just make c balls for loads more profit or steel plates for speed.

well, you see, what im trying to do is figure out if i should sell steel bars or steel arrows to make some cash. i can make both and i know that the materials for steel bars cost ~500gp while the bars sell for ~600gp.

 

 

 

i also know that steel arrows would sell for ~30gp while arrow shafts sell for ~5gp and feathers sell for ~10gp.

 

 

 

this would mean that the arrow heads should sell for ~15gp each if i want to break even. but that of course would be assuming that i would be buying all the materials for the arrows, which i most likely wont. id probably cut all the shafts, but maybe buy about half of the feathers.

 

 

 

the problem comes from the steel. now, i know that the steel bar itself would make me the most profit, at around 100gp per bar, while the arrows would actually equal out to be a loss if i buy all of the materials individually. i can mine most of the iron and/or coal on my own, i suppose, but im just considering all of my options.

 

 

 

i suppose in the end, id make my own heads, and buy the shafts and feathers. this would then bring me the greatest profit, or double the gp per item, while the steel bars would bring me only 6/5ths gp per item. the only decision id have to make is whether id want to spend the time mining and smelting and smithing all those arrow heads, or just smelting the bars...

Well c balls are faster than gathering all of those things and net ~180 gp ea. That is a ~220 gp profit in a relatively short amount of time per bar.

 

 

 

If your main focus is free smithing xp and cash, you can find people who pay for smelting. I am one person who trades 1 iron, 2 coal, and 50gp per steel bar. This is free smithing xp and a little pocket change.

 

 

 

If your main focus is cash, you should buy death, chaos, bloods, nats, cosmics, and/or waters from shops. Resell to other players and you should average upwards of 600k an hour.
