Hi E-citizens!

I m back with some silly toughts about this event which i d like to share.
Like that you have an article to vote.

With this new event some q4 kind of weapon are needed.
q4 tank, q4 sub...

So I ve asked myself: what do I do with this?
Is it an opportunity to make money and help E-players to fulfill the quest?
Can I produce what I need and is it profitable regarding the rewards?

so the cost for a daily production for factory is
4 employees
400*5 ressources (4 factory of raw q5) (full bonus cost)

I ll work with german value because they are full bonuses in order to get the most optimistic statistic.
raw cost 0.008DEM
employee cost 228DEM
DEM rate 0.006

result if you have bought some factories for the event:
you will produce in 21 days a maximum of 200*21=4200 XXq4 for a cost of 420k raw (20.16g) and 84 employees (114.91g)
At the end of the event you can sell your factory for half value 135g (obviously you are going to make a stock before to sell them in case of ;) but gold is still available if needed)

Result for 4200 products it will cost you (270+20.16+114.91-135) 270.07g

so how much do you have to value your products in order to not loose money?
you are going to make pack of 300 weap
so you are going to sell 14packs (4200/300)
result 19.29g per pack to be neutral

the cost to succeed the event  surely is 4 factory (2 sub and 2 tanks) because quest are random so it means that you can have 300subq4 for 21 days if you re unlucky
so you have to put 1081g just in order to be sure to get enough q4 weapons needed in the quest.

obviously these thoughts don't care about the 500wsq5 300weapq5...
these weapons are not rare and most of the players can produce them but to fulfill the quantity you need to use a lot of employees in it.

so i estimate that around 100 -150 tokens are going to be needed (137-205g in germany) but 73 are provided with reawards so the cost should be between 70 and 105g)

omg this event is going to be very costly for people who want to succeed it on their own XD

but you can sold the excess of product in order to help (before the end of the event to have a good price)
if you have make factories in order to be profitable on the others, I guess that it is going to be rough to find enough customer able to pay 25g a 300pack. and if you miss to sell 3packs you loose money.

In conclusion, investment to do at the beginning of the event in order to succeed it for sure is around 1080g which is clearly not for a lot of players
And you need to spend a lot of token (but 73 are provided by rewards).
And for the full rentability of the event it s needed to calculate the value of rewards at least (1 gp 200 + 1 pet 700 + 43 gold = 943g)

so if you have invested and cannot finish the quest event it s going to be a huge loss!

If you have started it, then be brave and do not fail!
