Bodyguards Cost Started by: ThomasGatto on Mar 29, '13 18:54

I've done this purely out of personal interest.

I'm no maths expert so someone please tell me if my method is correct.

But to have a full set of fully trained BodyGuards would cost: $647,831,250

Method...

$50,000 = 1st BG

$386,250 = 270th BG

So 50,000 + 386,250 = 436,250

And since the 2nd BG + the 269th BG also = 436,250

That means that that 436,250 X 135 = 58,893,750

So a full set of BG's = $58,893,750

Repeat that same method for the cost to fully train + 58,893,750 = $647,831,250

Am I doin' it right?

Your math looks right, however the cap is below 270.

We don't actually put the cap on there, it will always list a bit above the cap to conceal the defense of those who are capped.

Well that makes sense I suppose. It would be interesting to know how much money changes hands daily.

This is what I get for not actually crunching your numbers.

Your above math is actually off a bit :)


Total cost for 270 BGs would be $588,937,500

On the far right column is the grand total you would spend.

In the actual new BG page, there is a chart that has all the pricing break down for each BG.

Each BG has their own individual price.

The #1 bg slot will always cost $500k in total (50k, 10 times)
The #2 bg slot will always cost $512,500 in total (51,250, 10 times)
The #3 bg slot will always cost $525,000 in total (52,500, 10 times)

If you buy 200 at once, or one, they still keep their individual pricing. So even if you have, like in your example, 270 bgs - the price to train up your #1 slot bg is 50k per hp.

Your grand total of BGs doesnt effect the pricing of those before it... if that makes sense?

I wonder how I ended up with that then.

Clearly can't do math or use a calculator.

Yeah I see. I should have multiplied by 9 instead of adding the total onto the original cost.
