Draznar,


I verified the multi-house experiance works. I purchased 10 small naboo style 2 houses, 1 lot house. Put them up with fees and Irecieved 500 exp very 15min as expected. So all you power levelers out there this is the real deal.Go find an architect and get your 10 houses up right away.


Thanks for doing this guide Draznar, and thanks Kane for posting aboutthe multi-house idea.

As long as you have vendors available. I am thinking of setting one in a player city once it gets a shuttle port.

Just because you put vendors up doesnt mean your going to get merchant experience you must make sure to keep your merchants filled and selling and also pack the bazzar with sales items. Find a niche or line of products to sell lately for me its crates of pet food(3k on bazzar;2.5k on vendor), normal food/drinks, crafting tools, musical instruments, armor, weapons and repair and update tools. Spend time checking shops out in your area and on other planets see what prices are being charged and quality of items compared to yours and price accordingly. Don't pass up a shop that sells for less say 1k for a crate of pet food heck yeah buy low and sell high take that crate and sell for 2.5k-3k make 1500-2000 credit profit because you want some money and to also get those merchant experience points. Again look around at stuff and don't be the one selling for 1k when you can be making 3k.


On another note alot of people just place vendor and nothing else spend some money and decorate that shop some and give it warm and comfy feeling to your potential customers(ladies love plants and flowers hint hint).


The guide above has some good stuff in it so read over carefully and/or print it out.

Looks like I will be working on a major rewrite this week. Over all I am well pleased with the patch. We have a few changes in experience and a couple of new bugs. But overall things got easier.

I'd just like to note that at hiring 4 when you try to give your vendor something they can't wear they will give it back

Do you think I should Merge in the Tent FAQs or create a seperate revised Tent FAQs?

I think you should go with a separate FAQ for the time being, until everyone is more used to these, and they're more generally understood.



Personally, I'm expecing these to be as popular and useful as the reconfigurable dice.

Suggestions and corrections are always encourage. This guide is the fruits of all the Merchant Forums posters. Thanks for all the help.

How to become a Merchant: You must complete Business 4, have 5000 Merchant XP, and train Novice Merchant with a Merchant Trainers.

Merchant XP (comes in lumps, sometimes broken):

  • 150 XP per hour per vendor (Can place first at Bus 3)






MMMMMmmmm you know if the 150 XP per vendor/hour has been changed? i got 2 vendors on Dantooine and 1 on Tatooine, and im getting 3000 XP each day. Any idea?
