I'm a new Master Merchant and have a question I hope someone can help with. Last night I was looking at the various structures I own trying to figure out what I pay in maint on a daily basis. Things looked normal until I checked out two structures to which I have admin rights but do not own, and both were showing the Merchant -20% modifiers. One structure was a medium house and the other a personal harv. The character who owns both of those structures, my combat alt, is not a merchant. Is my Merchant modifier supposed to be applied to all structures I to which I have admin rights? That doesn't seem right to me.

Does your merchant pay maint into the structures he has admin to but doesn't own? I don't think it applies to any building u have admin rights to, only to the ones u pay maint to. I find that with my merchant if i pay maint into a structure i don't own then the modifier is applied but only until a non merchant pays maint in.

Bah! You're right! I remember reading that in here somewhere. I feel pretty foolish now. ![]()
Thanks though Khala, sometimes I need a gentle nudge to get my brain working.

Effiency IV grants you a 20% discount on all structure maintenance. You get the discount by putting any amount into the meintenance. The maintenance rate is then discounted until someone other than a merchant with Eff IV puts money into the maintenance pool.

All you have to pay is 1cr on any structure that you have admin to and the modifier will be applied.
However, if anyone else pays maintenance, the modifier will be removed until you pay it again.
