I heard it was published somewhere that if you no longerhave the Buisness skills to work with vendors you will lose the ability to control the inventory of those vendors. Anyone here know if it was true? And if so where it was posted?


I understand the theory behind it, many go up the Merchant Tree and then sell it off as quickly as they can. Giving themaccess to personal vendors when they no longer had the skills required to create the vendors. (Please don't hurt me) Would be interesting to see how many vendors would clear off the map if this was true.

This was discussed a long long time ago in regard proposed vendor changes, yes, they were going to stop people from dropping merchant skills and still being able to run vendors. They were also planning on limiting the amount of stock you can hold on a vendor at any one time. This was then to be linked to your level or merchant skills.... ie. if i remember correctly, at master merchant you could have approx 500 items on the vendor and this would be scaled down through the merchant levels.


As far as I have heard, these changes are going ahead, maybe try looking on the merchant boards regarding them? There was a long thread on one of the "dev comment" boards but I think it was around or before Christmas time before they switched everything around.


Actually! If i remember, it was the same thread where the bazaar changes were first put forwards.


Best bet would be to head to the merchant boards though.

In regard to the skill surrendoring, I havent re-read through the whole of the above thread but it is on the Top 5 Issues on the merchant boards and they are certainly pushing strongly (not surprisingly) to get this fixed.
