This is getting quite annoying. I am supose to be making 150 xp Hour per vendor (I have 3) And I logged in and my XP has not moved.



I have tried to examine them to see when the mantinace pool expires.. but it says 0?


I have tried to read all I could but it didn't seem these were the same problems.



They were 3 NPC vendors if that helps any, but I have not made any merchant XP in 2 days. My current skills are 0/2/0/1


I did how ever read some thing about NPC vendors being replaced with droids to get the XP. but that didn't seem to work.



Any suguestsion? There is 1 npc vendor I cannot replace because it's in the guildhall and has ALOT of stuff and I don't feel like replacing it.

Basically we purchase our xp. NPC vendors are bugged, and only charge 23 credits maint. / day. Now the amount of xp we get is based upon the maint. / day we pay on a vendor. I'm not sure of the exact amount we get however. Basically if you want to "power level" yourself in merchant, place down the terminal vendor(s) depending on your skill level. Use the newest terminal granted to you. On each vendor you place, post 1 item for sale for 1 million credits. You will notice your maint. rate jump up to around 150 credits / hour. Depending on your skills, maint.rates will vary. Now you will start to receive about 50 merchant xp every hour for each vendor you have set up like this. Also, you will get 50 xp for each unique person that buys from your vendor every hour.

wait a min, each vendor suppose to give us 150xp/hr. so efficient3 skill is bugged and the npc vendor stop giving out xp per hr.


we have to place droid/terminal vendors to overcome this, but why do we have to place item at 1M? does putting item at 1M and 1k has any impact on the xp gained?

I've got Eff 4, and the only Merchant XP problems I had were occasionally I wouldn't get any for awhile, then I'd get a bunch in a lump. I'm currently capped at 80k Merchant XP (since I refuse to buy any more Merchant skills until they are useful). I had three NPC vendors out, usually had then Registered, and always had at least 500 credits in the maintenance pool.


Oh, and "0" maintenance isn't really 0, its just so low the display got rounded to 0. You still consume maintenance, albeit slowly.
