Question: Merry Mayhem for miners and crafters

[Scudd]

Dont take this as a winge and whine post... merely a question..

Hi,

Event after event is being organised so the hunters of EU can take part and have the chance of looting loads of great prizes some with outstanding values, even Land Areas but my question is...

What is there for the miners and crafters of EU?

These guys work their arses off to find the resources and craft the weapons, armour, faps etc that the hunters get to use to win these great prizes... but whats in it for us?

Maybe this is a question more so for MindArk...

Marco?...

However, we are planning several mining and crafting events for 2009.

It's your event too.. look at all the PED to be made off the hunters paying ridiculous prices for L guns..

ore/en increase markup
and L gun increase markup 2
Hunter want event prize
MA need Ped
that can be call win-win situataion

Correct!!

Alot of L weapons went up in price during the events

But i hope MA will launch some events for crafters and miners some day Should be fun!

I have heard that there was a possibility to get a PoE set Not sure how many miners/crafters get any required parts though.

While we are at it, how about a taming event, come on MA, this would be a great way to jumpstart the profession again.

but mining equipment takes resources that are marked up as well.....

Mining and crafting generally provide a more stable profit margin than hunting (no, I don't mean crafting OA on condition).

Winning events is about the only way for a hunter to be as profitable as an equally skilled miner or crafter.

Hunters deserve to have the majority (not absolutely all) of the events tailored to them imo.


(I am hardly a hunter who would win any events btw)
