It gets slightly better at higher levels

BROTHEL (LEVEL 22)
Currently prostitution is a very good source of income. In order to generate income every vampire enforces monopoly on services for gentlemen and ladies.

Effect: +5522 Lgo / h

UPGRADE TO LEVEL 23
Cost: 12 180 827 Lgo, 12 391 286 people
Requirements: REPUTATION: 48 (96), INTELLIGENCE: 36 (72)
Time of construction: 5 hour(s) 3 min. 39 sec.
Effect: +1104 Lgo / h

And some of us are in "profit" on that level 16 already

But if you think it's not worth it, build something else. Plenty of other buildings to up before a level 16 Brothel for 154 Lgo/h that you won't even notice.

Wait until you get up here:

PAWNSHOP (LEVEL 22)
Pawn shop! Only 50% interest weekly!

Effect: +13802 Lgo / h

UPGRADE TO LEVEL 23
Cost: 73 795 402 Lgo, 2 869 822 people
Requirements: KNOWLEDGE: 135 (270)
Time of construction: 1 day(s) 50 min. 34 sec.
Effect: +2760 Lgo / h

I don't think it's better - you forgot to sum all lgo that you spent for it, so you will need > 4 ears to get back the investment

that is why i don't upgrade that "sheet" Big Grin

We don't see Bloodwars as an economy management game - the main source of Lgo should be attacking other people/selling equipment. Upgrading Brotherl is not really meant to be too cost-effective.

@Szeszej - if that is the case, then why did you cap the amount of lgo you get from attacks? 30k cap is pointless; either let us get more money from attacks or more from our beetches & pawn, but don't shaft us on both sides! Tongue

There's not being cost effective and there's being totally pointless... which is how I see upgrading brothel for anything other than tasks... It might have made some sense before junk was introduced but not anymore... If it costs 5yrs to regain lgo spent why not just keep it as junk, and have the lgo to spend on something usefull like quests/stones, as well as saving on blood and people...
Maybe the addition of some kind of Rep boost (eg. Shelter +x%) might give it some reasonable purpose... Surely an effective pimp would gain some rep Wink

I would love it to be a better investment, but I CAN at least see the point to it.

You're turning plundered money into a regular income.

It is VERY unlikely you will have saved up for a Brothel level from hourly input. You're more likely to have kicked the snot out of a lot of people to get that amount.

It's currently a play style option, so it would be nice to see incentivised into an essential building.

How about a point of Evo each day (paid in at reset), starting only at high levels?

Small but significant, it would get people building :p
