    i want to use it myself, but i dont have the skills for it.

    from the looks of it the ingredients are normally cheap to get (banite and quill MU is sky high at the moment, but it will drop drastically)

    so... what do you guys think? what could it be worth?

    and dont send me PMs, reply here.. thanks :)

    As you can see it doesn´t require anything spectacular to make. i sold a thousand ped quill sap to TT because the markup was so low, and it will fall down to that level again, and banite is also cheap normally, cheap enough for me to throw them in tt from time to time, so that will also be cheap.

    all i see is cheap cheap cheap cheap when it comes to making :)

    considering this, and the price the finnished products sell at..... well, i can only guess, but please feel free to post your thoughts of what it could be worth! :)

    Is a nice bp to have, that's for sure :D mainly cause the product it self sells pretty well atm.
    Pricewise is hard to judge right now imho ... today I'd say a couple Ks but depends a lot on the drop rate of it in future (Apis UL bps are only a few hundreds altough the gun it self sells in high ammounts daily)

    Big GZ on winning it ;)

    could you post the ingredients, or a screenshot? there is no data at entropedia so hard to value without more info

    It's worth more than anyone will be willing to pay you for it.

    If you plan to play this game for some years ahead, skill up and use it yourself.

    It's almost as good as having an UL weapon, perhaps even better in some ways.

    Better how? You'll be looting very nice BPs while you're crafting items at a profit and as such when you use the gun yourself, with that profit gained from crafting, you'll in essence be paying under 100% to hunt.

    This bp can be the difference between depositing and withdrawing.

    I too won this BP and am profiting on it, with current inflated markup on materials, even though I am only level 9.5 blp engineer and it doesn't max until 12.5!!!

    I won't be undercutting you on auction and hope the third person doesn't start doing so either.

    i am the 3rd person and wont be selling, thats for sure, I will be crafting with it. as i agree with cyberpunk on the value of an unlimited weapon bp. once the flooded market calms down and most of those guns have been used, they will again be easy to sell and the mu on them will be decent. return on crafting will be better after the mats from mining mu goes back down a bit because they skyrocketed during the crafting event.

    So my outlook on it is like this.... 3 bps. 2 owners have said they aint selling. So yours would be respectibly valuable. If i were u I wouldnt sell it though. just skill up to the point u can use it. or chip in some skills. and gz to both of u on winning it.

    Skill up so you can use it. I would buy it if it were a price I could afford and I dont have the skills to use it yet.

    So if you want to sell you will probably get a good price but I think that would be a mistake.

    Personally I do not think only those 3 bps will be in game ... other's will drop eventually and let's not forget the L ones that do drop quite often for this item.
    As always, the biggest profit margin is in the beginning, and will slowly drop overtime ... just my thoughts. It remains a nice bp to have and use, but I doubt the 3 crafters will ensure monopolly of market on this gun ... especially in the long run

    Price fix would imply we agree to sell on auction at a set price, I didn't say anything about setting a price, I just said I wouldn't be undercutting and hoped the 3rd bp owned wouldn't either, for all you know that means I won't be selling on auction. Thanks but, I know where to read the EULA as well as the forum rules and don't need any reminders, I would suggest you reference off topic posts and perhaps even trolling in forum rules, I'll spare everyone from my copy and pasting them here. Just by replying to your off topic post now I've gone off topic so on topic:

    I looted a CAP-202 Arctic (L) BP (L) already while clicking the ARK-30 BP and I think that CAP-202 Arctic is one of those really nice ones which make big HoFs when clicked (or so I was told by a high level crafter). If it regularly drops nice BP (L) then that'll make the ARK-30 BP even more valuable imo.

    It's an ark bp from past experience it may be rare now but in few weeks with hundreds of them on market you'll regret not selling it for 10 peds.

    I refuse to buy an arkadian crap !

    about the rarity of the blueprint, i have done over 7k clicks on guns in total and that got me 3 UL blueprints, and lots of others have done thousands of clicks without getting a single UL blueprint.

    it will be a LONG time before this blueprint will be considered "a regular one"

    but thank you for posting without knowing what it is you are talking about ;)

    Same thing happened to the Ark-20 arctic bp. I picked mine up for 200 ped and 2 more sold one for somewhere over 1k ped and the other one for 2k ped. Now theyre not even selling for 500 ped on auction. However its imposible to say how meny of these bps will drop so its a gamble on valuing it now as it can go both ways.

    Ark weapons have better eco and DPS then most simular weapons on other planets so theire not crap theire awsome. The BPs also requrie way less skill to manufacture then simular weapons on other planets (taking a look at the lvl required to use the weapon)

    Let's specify whether we're talking about UL or L bps, folks... I highly doubt that hundreds of UL bps for this gun are going to drop in the next few weeks.
