Merchant Archive

Nothing. If you redeed it you won't be able to replace it. As long as you don't move the tent it will stay where it is as long as maint is paid on it.

so pretty much same as the merchants that are placed then, though isnt this all getting changed soon because its unfair to those who keep merchant?

If you drop Efficiency 4 and keep your tent, at first nothing will happen. However, within a week, at random intervals, you pubic hair will burst into flames.

Want to fix all the db issues? Delete the zillions of items sitting on vendors that belong to those who no longer really possess the skills to manage those vendors.

Fixing this would really lighten the db load. I would probably quit the game all together, as would many others. Thats nearly 500 crates, 350 vendor items, and 300 in-world items. I'd try but I dont think I'd make a dime as a Master Droid Engineer without my grandfathered merchant placements. I know the majority of the posters in this forum avidly oppose my views however the DEV's priority must always be on the majority of SWGplayers not one profession base.

if you drop the merchant skills you should also loose anything granted from those skills or at least make it so you cannot drop those skills while you are still taking advantages of such skill grants, if they want the skill points back then they need to give up the stuff they get from them also. really sad when all everyone wants to do it cheat, exploit and cuase others grief... id hate to meet anyone in real life that acts the same way as they do in games.

Well i am not merchant by choice but because i need vendors. I will drop it as soon i have enough vendors to sell my stuff. I am really happy that you can drop the merchant skills without loosing your investment in the profession regarding vendor. As long you pay, they are here. All other benefits are lost but vendors act like harvesters, they collect ressources no matter you are artisan or not, no matter you are skilled in survey. Should i loose my harvestor because i have dropped survey ?

Merchant is a profession that requires skill points. Getting vendors then dropping the skill was never intended, and has been abused.

Using harvesters never required skill points. To place them on your own takes the survey skill. As in any of the professions, if you surrender a skill, you lose that particular ability to use that skill. I am a master merchant I have invested my skill points in the profession. If some wants a

In the same way, in player city, you can place a cantina only if you are amaster Musician or Dancer. Should you loose the cantina if you drop master while you are still paying for it to be maintain ?

This vendor thing is not a bug but a well done feature. Vendors are just tools used to sell. You don't have to loose them. You have to get skill to place them, you invest xp and time in you get your reward by not loosing your investment.

Yhis have nothing to do with any other profession. Unless you want to make disappear anything a playing did while he qwas of some profession. I was armoursmith, i made armors, sold them, now that i have surrended the skill all my armors suddenly disappear from the world. You create vendor, you keep them. it's the same thing.
