Most Efficient Blood Plasma Extraction
« on: January 08, 2024, 11:34:59 pm »
In the game, you often will get way more Energetic Blood Plasma than you need, even before you get the ability to produce it yourself. Since selling creature corpses and live creatures are a good way to make money, I took some time to figure out what are the best monsters to extract blood plasma from, and the best ones to sell. The following table gives the opportunity cost per unit of blood plasma, taking into account the cost of the material (versus just selling it), the project cost (usually low), and labor cost (also very low), along with what extra stuff is produced (i.e. zombie parasites).

The gist of it is that Zombies, both alive and dead, are usually good for extraction, mainly because you can sell the parasites that are produced. In the early game, you're also likely to encounter the following good candidates: Bullfrogs (though you might want some to make muskets), Spikeboars (same, but with Quillbows), Shamblers, and Mongorns.

On the flip side, anything that requires multiple corpses like rats and such are very expensive per unit, and it's usually best to sell those. Also note: anything with a * below has alternate uses or other products that you should also take into account. (I didn't count zombie parasites though).
