Merchant

Merchant
Release						6 November 2024 (Update)
Episode						Crenopolis
Premium						Yes

Merchant is a type of profession in Episode 4: Crenopolis. The profession revolves around accepting bounties at the Merchant's Guild, purchasing the items from one NPC and delivering them to another NPC in the city. Higher levels of Merchant allow the player to receive steep discounts on some items, such as hides for Leatherworking, or pearls and cabbages for Alchemist.

You can stockpile up to six bounties, and those bounties can be of the same delivery, so waiting at the Guild Bounty Board for a few minutes to fill your bounties with the desired delivery route is an option.

Overview

Guild bounty board

The Guild Bounty Board refreshes every two minutes.

The EXP and Money rewards scale by level, changing at unlock levels. The table contains the XP reward and profit at each item's unlock level, although the XP and money scale with level, with the full table found here: Merchant Guild Bounties XP & Values.

General Tips:

• Watch and wait out the timer within the Guild Bounty Board menu for a chance to double up on higher value trades, or for other items that share a similar route.
• Teleporting is often faster than walking!
• Items can be pre-purchased and dropped on the floor until an appropriate bounty is available. Items on the ground expire after ~10 minutes.
• Consider leveling Detective to unlock shortcuts between different rooms. After clearing a raid room, one of the rooms will stay open to become a shortcut.
• The Battle of Fortunehold quest also rewards a shortcut between Fortunehold Farm and Meggrit's Market. Unlocking the shortcut itself does not require the full completion of the questline, but merchant level 55 is required to progress far enough into the quest to unlock the shortcut.

Discounts

Merchant levels unlock discounts in buying Hides from the Hide Stall. When the discount is achieved with the Merchant profession, the buy price will be equal to the sell price.

Passive activities

Merchant passive activities involve working for various stalls around Crenopolis. Some stalls pay in items, and some pay in coins, profit values assume items are sold. All passive activities complete 1 action every 20 seconds.

Passive activities give reduced experience when a players level is high enough to perform a new passive activity for that profession. The numbers shown here are the full experience.
