Selling to Burt

[TFMaster]

I've actually been thinking of this for a while now but never posted it.
So, you know how you can sell Zil related items to Burt? Well I was thinking that since you can sell multiples of the same item to other shop NPCs with just a simple button press. That it would be nice to be able to sell Burt multiple Zil rations or Zil honey at once it would make things a lot easier.

Also with the recent addition of the Plantation Quest you can get a Zil spear and bow and currently you cannot sell them to Burt. It would be nice (and make more sense) if you can sell them to Burt maybe at a slightly higher than normal price.

Also what does Burt do with the things you sell him? I know he collects Zil related stuff but what exactly does he do with it? Does he throw it all in a huge pile and roll around in it?

He probably sells it for a higher price to some other schmucks. Or eats it. At least the honey, maybe not the rations.

That just made me think of something, maybe he puts the honey in his special XZillerate Mead.

I'm pretty sure he all but states that he does so and mentions being able to do more with the honey now that he ends up with a steady supply if you do the good ending of the Plantation Quest.

Speaking of that quest, it kinda feels like the spear and bow are fairly shitty weapons for a level 6 quest, even if logic dictates that a literal stone age tool should be shitty.

I hadn't realized that Burt had a little blurb after the quest. Do any other NPCs in Esbeth have interactions after the quest too?

I agree. Why do you think I want to sell them to him so badly?

I think Flahne does too.

They're meant to be trophies, really. I didn't even intend for you to get them after the quest, that's just how Fen wrote it.

I suppose Burt might be feasibly interested in them, but you still wouldn't be getting much out of it. Just stick them in storage and wait for the inevitable 'Put stuff on the wall of your spaceship den' update.

I'm envisioning a vault a la Scrooge McDuck here.

 

[Ormael]

That vault may need to be build near nursery on Tavros as we sooner or later fill even biggest ship aside captial class with items loted as memento or trophy.

 

[Vio]

A vault full of credit chits... Ah, a man can dream, a man can dream.

 

[Lashcharge]

He probably bathes in Zil Honey.

 

[Ormael]

Zill and Glden Myr Honey

But having vault in Tavros that would been noted in text when PC fly back to station would be...nice tiny detail xD

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

Wow, I derail things without even trying now >.< I'm such a bitch.

That implies that it wasn't creepy to begin with, no?

You've never heard of Burt's Bees?

You know somewhere in the back of my mind I was thinking of that when I typed that. It was obviously meant to be a joke.

 

[Endwar]

Uggh...Family Guy. No offense to people who actually like this, but I have never been a fan of Family Guy as I think the jokes are very crude and tasteless. Again no offense, as for what Burt does with his honey and Zil treats? Hmmm *brain percolating*

Oooh! For the honey, maybe he's trying to make his own brand sauce line with Zil honey as the primary ingredient! Bert's BBQ Sauce! Made with natural Honey! Then when he gets rich enough, he can out buy out (I do not know the policies) the plantation from that guy who I forgot his name but not the assistant Abel.

Zil Treats sadly is still up in the air.

 

[Noob Salad]

Kind of the point for that kind of humor to be crude. Like in comparison, I don't find The Simpsons to be funny so much as entertaining, you get me?

 

[Lancer]

He comes right out and says that he makes his best drink with the stuff you bring him, in his conversation after completing the plantation quest.
