i had to make a new thread so i can add a pic.
but there is a big difference in what it takes to make a bio vs make potion kegs.

that is 425 useless dna @ 150 ea organic comes to 63,750,000 gps

price to make a keg (agility)
775 gps for empty keg via exex
300 blood moss
100 bottles
100 alchemy ps.
tinker tool
blacksmithing tool

price to make a bio (for me)
100 tinkering ps
100 blacksmithing ps
7600 eds for luck = @45k each eds (which you won't find) 342,000,000 gps
min 10,000 organics (this is without fail, doesn't happen)= normal to make a bio=15,000 organics this does not include bad dna sampling for mimic.
bio engineering book
bio engineering tool.
knowledge of what to sample
ingots
bottles
blank scrolls


so why does BETA go to war as you put it? see above.

plus I wouldn't call it going to war, as much as a group of players being mature and coming to a consensus.. in a way the keg makers could learn alot from this.. as there would be somewhat standardized pricing, oh wait most keg makers are able to see this logic.. there is just a holdout

well BETA comes together democratically. if someone wants to raise prices we take a vote. majority rules here. we haven't had an issue for over 2 years. except for new bio engineers getting into it. if the new bio-engineers would just stick to the layout of the rest of us...there wouldn't be a problem. meh some people want to go against the tides, which as we know makes it just harder to paddle.
