Ok, lets calculate the true value of briochit because that is wrong:
Noralgis 50 * 65 = 3250NIC
Titan 75* 0.5 = 37.5NIC
Epitron 50* 10 = 500NIC
Total value of Briochit: 3787.5 per unit ( higher due to no perfect refines)
That's how you calculate commodity values, Devs!.
Couple of things here;
First - Norgalis at 50 is based on pre-patch. This has not settled down to the new prices. It's used in so many, and in such quantity, that this is going to go down.
If it doesn't go down, then players can simply recycle it. So, in FACT, it must go down; and will to the point where it is no longer profitable to recycle.
Welcome to a player based economy.
This would be exactly true for any item on the market, if the cost of the raw material was inflated.
Let's ask this, who would benefit from from keeping Beta derived commodities expensive; especially Brio?
