What is the money making gain in this?

I was wondering the same thing. Daylies are useful for farming Dayly commendations and a few credits but they dont pay enough to cover even a few wipes on new content.

If I pay attention and do it quick, I make about 50k in about 30-40 minutes, vendoring every drop.

OP are you just trolling in here?
Several guys told you that dailys from Belsavis and illum can grant you up to 150k creds EACH DAY.You dont raid each day, you maybe raid what 3 times a week?So if you get 55k repairs each time you go to raid(which i doubt very much) its 55*3=165k.Now do dailys 2 (TWO) days in a week and you will get 300k creds.
I've been farming dailys with 1(ONE) friend of mine every day and we had no problem at all and it may have took us a max of 2h(it may have been alot less but i dont remember anymore) each day.

If your problem is putting some effort into the game then i agree with 90% of the posters here telling you that this is not a game for you and i dont think any MMO will be.

Lets take a look at the actual math. There are about 4 or 5 Ilum daylies that you can do in about 30 mins to an hour. Those daylies pay about 12k credits each.

4 x 12,000 = 48,000 credits

that can be wiped out by a single 50-60k repair of yellow gear. Sorry but your numbers just dont add up. According to the numbers, anyone who does daylies a few days a week and hardmode flashpoints and Ops content a few days a week will steadily lose credits until they have nothing left within 2-3 weeks.
This is completely false. I raid 2 - 3x per week between normal and hard mode...I do 2 - 3 HM instances on the nights I am not raiding. My bankroll is steadily growing.

You can make 65 - 70k a day just doing the 3 space missions that are not grey at level 50...it takes 20 min to do all 3 of them. You can invest 20 min in your character to support raiding...can't you? If not, you have no right to ask the rest of your raid group to invest in your character by getting it raid loot.

If you add on to that 20 min per day a few days of running dailies a week on the nights you are not raiding...your bankroll will only grow.

Credits are not hard to come by in SWTOR.

I agree with the op, but only from the stand point of in a week and a half in gearing and my repairs went from "meh pocket change, who cares" to "Whoa! that was a sizable chunk of my creds."

There seems to me at least be some disparity there.

I have lost so much interest in this game that I do nothing but log in for raids twice a week. I don't pvp, do dailies, run HMs, level alts...I just raid. Not only do I have no trouble covering repair bills, I'm gaining money. I don't see how anyone can complain about money in this game unless you have to pay a full repair bill multiple times a night...

Edit: Just to cover my butt, I don't craft either.

I missed his post (the one you replied to). 150k per day on repairs? Even on new content no one should be wiping on average 15 times a day every day. That is just awful beyond belief. That means you are wiping on normal mode raid (which is just pathetic if you are running hard modes) in order to raid 4 times. On the 3 other days, you are wiping twice on every flashpoint. Time to quit the game if you are wiping 15 times a day.

This is pretty much the truth. Nights without raid stuff used to be farming mats/money days. I do not miss them...

Ive been horrible with ingame cash in every mmo iv played over the last 8 years. Ive had no money issues.

I spent 250k easily on raids in one night. Mind you it was HM EV and KP both cleared. As the MT its gets rough because you always go down then get to watch half the raid exit area knowing they get no repair bill.

Yea single tanking 16M G4-B3 Fabricator in KP with 10stacks of 16% armor reduc (160% total. ie. no armor). Done. Skills I have them, credits not so much.
