Outpost wood Sales issue.

[Mrinkredible86]

Hi, 

just wondering if something can be done about the wood sales at outpost?. it just gets continually hammered by people selling stone for wood to make more net worth from the wood than just selling the stone?.  I think the net worth price for wood should be lowered so it cant be sold for more than the stone. this would stop the outpost shop continually being empty wood of for people who actually need it.

i personally get annoyed by this as I'm VIP and one perk is burning no wood, so i don't have to go out harvesting as much but this means i don't get charcoal as a by product. So come end of wipe and i want to craft explo to make net worth i have stacks of sulfer and no charcoal to make GP. I cant buy it from outpost in bulk because everyone's just abusing the stone to wood swap and i have to spend hours hacking trees down again. doesn't really make sense to me. 

any input on this would be appreciated.

if you are in need of gp buy smoke grenades from outpost and scrap them you should get all the gp ya need to make plenty of explosives

Totally understand that and have done it before, But still doesn't solve the problem I mentioned originally though.

You start burning through your scrap supplies buying smokes instead of selling that for net worth and not using your sulfer up its counter productive. Your using stuff you can sell for net worth to make net worth lol. 

One of the perks of being vip is you burn no wood so when you still have to go round hacking same amount of trees down just to make charcoal it totally defeats the object of that perk. It's made worse when you cant ever get wood from outpost when you need it and everyone starts selling it for stupid prices around the map or you spending hours farming again lol. 

In my opinion wood should be worth nothing on the black market, you need 3 million wood just to make a few thousand net worth and people abuse it just to get rid of stone and deplete the stock as soon as it fills up.

You can always buy wood at Outpost. It is just limited to a smaller amount per attempt. It should be more than enough to make charcoal though.

Buying smokes to recycle for gp is actually more profitable than just selling the scrap, and you also need the sulfur for crafting the explosives.

You could also prepare throughout the wipe by say throwing a stack or two of wood a day into a refinery to produce some charcoal.
