Today and yesterday I got a retired Morostide item worth about 1.7 mil each, from her. Even inflated, I'm finding her very very profitable at the moment.
That said I normally don't do her quests because I would rather do other quests, but I always come out at the end of her quests with a profit. It might not be huge amazing profit, but I never lose out. Plus there are items to resell.
I don't find her the most exciting quest giver, but I think she's fine overall.
In a more general sense, I find it continually inexplicable that many folks judge quest quality only by the sP that comes out the other end. I make bank off the quest rewards, so I'm baffled why so many people seem to disregard that source of profit entirely.
Especially since Luminaire is coming.
Again, aren't Cinthia special weekend rewards the "increased" rewards. I mean, I got three Atebus Dolls or something, but yeah
Yeah, they are, aside from the special limited-time Morostide items you can also get right now. And they actually increase quite a bit in value after WQ's are over, so a little bit of delayed hoarding will actually increase profits there. Same with a lot of the WQ rewards.
FWIW you are not the only one really annoyed with Carl lately, either.
No you are not the only one. Every day I want to push a bottle down his throat or throttle him.
I already opened a thread to discuss it but it was moved to the Games section.

Staff didn´t deem it necessary to answer or even recognize the complaint.
I personally have gotten a few very good things from Cinthia this weekend. Although sometimes her payout is a bit low, I don't think anything needs to be changed.
I've been profiting from all the quests lately, including Cinthia's.
every quest is very profitable if you dont just mindlessly buy and turn in every item asked for. Though quite often they are, even when doing that. Put some thought into spending limits for quests and nobody should have a problem making money.
She is profitable at this monment. I have no reason to complain. But I speak for myself.
Yesterday she had a bug and she asked for the same items few times in a row, so the prices of those items went up really fast.. so yesterday was an exception... I make between 10k-20k profit per quest..
^that's my answer every time this complaint comes up
You can't just do every quest regardless of the cost of the items and expect a profit from each individual quest. If you know Cinthia doesn't pay out more than ~15k sp, and you only care about her sp profits, stop spending more than that per quest. How is this hard?
We have enough quest givers across the site that you can make plenty of profit per day. We don't need all of them to give out 100k a pop.
I just tested her, I started with: 75k exactly, ended with sP: 37,041. I did every quest and none where more than 20k. And I just added up the shop search values of the items she gave me (non morostide rewards) = 90k.
So I still made 52k profit if you look further than just the sp rewards.

Today I got a 34mil sP prize!
The thing about Cinthia is that both her sp AND item payout is bad. (Excluding the Morostide stuff, of course.)
I make about as much pure from Cinthia as I would from Quentin or Library, but Quentin's items are consistently worth more AND there's the amulets, and Library gives out easily 600K+ worth of Super Rares.
It's not that I don't make a profit at all, it's just that it's pretty pitiful compared to the other quests.
I don't make hardly anything when it comes to sp; however, with the morostide items that is what I am after. After this week though, I will go back to ignoring her. XD Her payouts aren't worth my time compared to making sure I do all the other ones. But that is me. People should be able to still make a little sp either way if you were being smart about her quests.

I lost 63k on her quests today. The only worthwhile items I got were a couple of the Morostide items. Whether or not those will ever sell, of course...
Right now her quests are inflated (general price of a quest pre-morositide was about 20k or less, now it can be up to 40k), but item prizes are also creating a pretty significant increase in the value of the quests.
I'll take a look at her quests post-morostide, but a gentle reminder that you shouldn't be making a profit on every quest, and some quests are just generally going to be less profitable than others.
I just simulated 40 quests and got:
The sP is a little bit off because it assumes you buy everything as cheapest-from-user-shops and doesn't take into account main shops having it in stock, etc.

^^Seem like pretty good numbers to me. :) She may not be the most profitable quest when it comes to sP, but I have to echo the sentiment from some others that I also never lose out in the end on Cynthia. These numbers seem to suggest that's the norm.
