Potion Prices

I'm waiting for the market to settle myself. Not sure how much any of the crafted items go for. Regardless of job. Typically I just check the auction house and see how much everyone else is selling something for and then undercut it a little XD
Been doing the same now. Since market isn't stable yet, I just spend my time farming Mats especially Firmaments(I). I also agree with 30-40z is quite good and not OP for 20pcs, of red maestro. I'm sure some items will go up, and some go down after a few more weeks. Just being patient for now.

Edit: It's only a matter of time before every single player on the server has a pocket Alchemist to make their own potions. Raising potion prices just gives more incentive for these players to make their own Alchemists sooner.

-My calculations from yesterday-
Current AH Prices:
Potion Bottles = 479z each
Firm Essence: 99 for 80z = .81z each
fruit: 3fruit=1extract: 99 for 25z = .25z each, equiv to .75z per extract
Extract: 230 for 127.5 = .55z each
----
One stack of 20 =
2x4 = 8 potion bottles = 3.832z
1x4 = 4 crystals (12 essence) = 9.72z
2x4 = 8 extracts (24 fruit) = 4.4z
added up = 17.952 total to buy all materials

'K, I find the calculations useful too. But as an Alche too, You don't have to purchase all those items from AH. Bottles from NPC(Alche Expert), get your own herbs, and go to magic academy for the Firm box(20pcs.). You can purchase Firm from AH from time to time if its awful cheap. I scout AH for Cheap Firms.
On the note to make potion prices higher, I don't think that's a good idea. As bronx said, Firm price from AH will rise up, and that's bad not just for alchemists but for other Professions too. Selling 20pcs MaestroRedPots for 20-23z is enough profit for those who got lots of firm upon leveling up and also farming from time to time.
And a tip for future alchemists. if you get bored, feel free to make an assassin to make your farming slave for Herbs. A level 25 assassin will do, just make sure max out Hiding and those "Mobility" skills.

Of course I didn't buy bottles from AH, you buy them from the Alchemist expert for 479 silver a piece. Obviously I didn't mean 479z each, sorry if that confused you.
I never said you have to buy all the items from the AH, that was the point. This way you can see how much of a profit can be made by gathering certain amounts yourself and/or purchasing parts from the auction house. The essences have jumped up a bunch in price from the day those calculations were made still though, so they are no longer accurate.
