Merchant Archive

I have six vendors. Last night at around 11pm I had 63000 vendor XP. This morning at 8:30am I only have 63800. According to my math there should be more than 800xp at 150 per hour.

Anyone else notice similar problems?

BTW, I recently removed two vendors from other locations and placed them in my house.. So my house has 3 vendors. Another location has 2 and a final place has 1.

If I have more then one vendor in my house do I not get the XP for them???

All of my vendors are in my house and I get XP from them. But it is not consistant. Merchant Xp is very flakey. Sometimes deleting an older vendor and replacing it will kick it up again.

I'm new to the profession, but I have noticed similiar problems with the 150 exp per vendor. When you first put up a vendor the experiance seems to come in as expected, butafter a few days some of them seem to quit. I'm planning to start rotating my vendors daily by creating new ones. I'll let you know if this helps solve the problem or not.

Some have suggested it is related to learning new skills. This may be the case. I didn't notice it while going up the management line but I do see it going up the Advertising Line.

I logged in the other morning to extreme lag and ping of 900+. I thought, wierd, better relog and get a better connection. I had looked down and noticed my merchant xp bar 8000/40000. ok, cool, got some xp for last night. logged out, logged back in. no lag or ping, looked at my xp bar again 23k/40k. Hooray When they say merchant xp can come in waves, they really mean it.

i have the same probleme since i get Efficiency IV ...

I tried to change some of my vendors (remove 2 of them and create 2 new) but the problem is still there. Don't know what to do now.

The only xp i get are issued from vendor sales.

I guess I should have put it in the guide. During your progress up xp, I recommend using one vendor for all your sales and place the rest in a back room and rotate them as needed. That way the worst is that your sales one will not give xp overtime, but the rest will.

mine seem to hang up every day for the last 3 days, but seems to catch up after daily server reboot. glad to hear it not just me

I have 2 vendors in my house and I get 200 xp per hour and I seem to have stopped getting XP from people browsing my vendors. I've never got XP for making a sale although my friend is also a merchant and he says he has. He got a friend to spend 10k on items from the vendor and he got 300 xp.

I just started having problems with this patch.

I'm 30K XP away from hiring 4, my last skill! And I'll need the skill points for Doctor (I'll be keeping some, but not all. Not a holo thing, but I figured since I only had Hiring to go, I might as well hit master.) Oh well.
