Thanks~

It is profitable depending on where you sell them. They range from about 20-35 copper each and cost about 12 or more copper to make. Selling them in places such as near the level 20 job change place or in any area that you might find people willing to buy them.

I want to add something to that: Price to compete with the Item Merchants, since that way you get more Repeat Customers. Yes; A player low on HP Potions in the middle of Hostile Monsters will pay whatever they have to buy a few more. But if your price is less than the Item Merchants, odds are good those players will come back when they have the extra coins to stock up. It's how I did things on a different MMORP, and actually made a lot friends this way.

there's an item merchant selling them?!
omg! i must be extremely blind!! :eek:
anyway, i can't say it's a profitable source.
pots i sell, which are 35c each tier 1 don't get much of a response in towns.
yet, i see people who sells them for 40c get buyers.
i don't get whats the problem with MY pots. ended up using them myself.

No NPC sells potions =/ so that theory wouldn't quite work, but making potions can be somewhat profitable. Scroll making is upmost the most profitable

Pot making sucks when u are low lvl yes it is an ok source of income i am lvl 41 and i can sell tier2 hp pots which sell for 200-250c and need the following to make 3 tough meats,2 spirit fruits tier 2, 1 geranium, and 2 sign of trace(correct me if i put wrong amount plz) all this for 250c ea not worth it i need over 50s just for a decent green equip so how does 200 of these pots sound for 50s DO NOT remark if ur below lvl 35 please b/c u will think yes thats alot of money but for my lvl no it isnt b/c ppl dont sell geranium and sign of trace are pretty hard to get
I have stone making also which i make tier 2 elrues and sell for 1.1s ea these require 3 dim dusts of ea color which i can get by setting up a shop for 2 hours and get enough dusts to make 200 elrues which is 220s which is better hmmm tell me and for scrolls i do not think they are great income b/c the mats are so expensive and harder to get than the rest i mean 150c ea for tier 1 when i can make tier1 lix and sell for 250c ea and sell 100 in 20 min
For stones u can go kill mobs and get a ton of dusts from almost all mobs but for scroll mats u mostly buy ur mats b/c u dont get alot from mobs

The problem with pot making is that pots are used as backup when you are 30+. Stones are cheap, and don't raise in price as you level up, but get more potent.
Would you rather spend 50c for a HP stone that recovers 2/3s of your health, or a pot for 200c that recovers 1/4? (Fudged fractions - YMMV - but the idea is sound, I think).
