Hi,

I recently came across 'Dairy Products' and I was wondering if it's actually used for anything in the game?
(Besides for making everyone's teeth white, of course...)

Thanks

Nope, they're an 'NPC trade good', search for that term to find more info about them.

Chruker, although quite outdated now, lists which blueprints items are used in, if any.

Btw, in the olden age of EVE, npc trade was pretty much all the trade there was in EVE. You transported goods from one system to another somewhere else where npc prices were slightly different. Pretty much like trade runs in modern MMOs like BDO. There was no player-to-player market interface.

And you can still do trade runs for a list of items (dunno if you can with Dairy Products). Some can be ridiculously lucrative - "Roes" spring to mind.

Many of the player-made materials in the game, such as PI materials, were previously also just npc materials, and could be traded to npcs the same way. And there have been players that rage-quit EVE at points in time where such npc trade opportunities were discontinued.

Or local JF pilots have lists with stuff that is interesting as "extra load" when going from A to B in EVE. So take NPC goods from A to B if you are jumping with spare room. Make some extra isk on the way.

I seem to recall some clever chaps using freighters and a titans jump portal to make a huge amount of isk trading npc items across the map when titans first came out, but I may be wrong.

You then still needed LVL V gallente industry. Now everyone can fly one. It is so unfair.
