Price Check on Heavy Armor sets

I was wondering what to charge for Heavy Armor sets. I currently can make up to Q40 pieces. I use all Choice mats with the highest Dodge Modifiers. I also add 5 Stamina pts to all pieces.

I was told on Region chat to charge 90k for a Q40 set. But now that I think about it, it seems a bit low. I've seen a Q50 "Light" Armor set go for 175k. The only difference with his was that each piece has an extra 10hp to it. But Light Armor sets only use up 34 mats while Heavy Armor sets use up 129 mats.

Now, my question is: "What do you think is a reasonable price to charge for my sets?"

Thanks for you help.

Might have to wait until the free market economy starts up with the vendors being introduced.

I'm also a heavy armor crafter , here's how i calculate so far :

(mines are with small hp bonus)

QL 30 : 30000 x 2 = 60k
QL 40 : 40000 x 3 = 120k
QL 50 : 50000 x 4 = 200k
QL 60 : 60000 x 5 = 300k
QL 70 : 70000 x 6 = 420k
QL 80 : 80000 x 7 = 560k

Etc.. (you see the pattern )

Prices seem a bit high, vlad... I was selling Q80 medium armor sets (all choice +200 hitpoints) for 300k... not sure the market would support prices twice that high.

I actually got alot of semi-threatening tells demanding to know why my prices were so high and why I kept on refusing to take orders (hint: taking into account degrades, it requires nearly a hundred choice q100 mats), this lead to the "crafters society of pyr" check the guild forums :P

Light Armor (Prices I sell for)
Q30 - 25k
Q40 - 30k
Q50 - 40k
Q60 - 75k
Q70 - 100k
Q80 - 135k


For prices on medium and heavy, maybe multiply them by 2 for medium, and by 3 for heavy.


This is the fairest price I can go by, I would ratehr have lwoer prices and sell 4-5 sets (and get the levels in crafting for it) then sell 1 set for 3 or 4 times those amounts.


Besdies, lower prices = repeat customers, and loyal customers is a great thing to have.
