Merchant Archive

While, I'd like more lots (who wouldn't) I think there is a greater possibility of getting a travel discount. I have shops on 2 planets right now. One is on Corellia and one is on Lok. To get to Lok I have to go through Naboo or Tatooine. It would be a great help if I were able to get 'frequent flyer miles' instead of reductions on the bazaar. Imean, really, I became amerchant so I wouldn't have to depend on the bazaar to sell stuff (buying stuff, is another matter entirely).

I think Efficency 3 should be Cheaper travel.. Makes a lto of sense for a business perosn and its high enough on merhcnat tree where only peoepl who were relaly working merhcant class would get..

I think that we should get more lots as well. That being said, I would not want to see this in place until the vendor is taken away at Buss IV. I can see this being real exploited.

I completely agree with the addition of Travel Cost reductions. Totally makes sense for a Merchant not only from a common sense/realism standpoint but also from a gameplay standpoint. As it currently stands, I blow through thousands of credits a day just getting to all my harvesters/vendor/various planets where I post needed resources to the Bazaar.

I would like to suggest that instead of useless bazaar fee reductions at Efficiency I and III, these be replaced

with an increase in lot allocation. Efficiency 1 + 2 Lots, Efficiency III + 2 Lots, Master Merchant + 2 lots.

This would make the line useful, would allow a way around not being able to place vendors in other peoples houses by giving us the lots to place more shops around the galaxy, and give more incentive to reach Master.

Comments?

Trouble is, it's only useful for a particular "style" of merchanting (or, probably more often, as a backdoor way to a "miner" profession and/or just attracting people who want more lots for whatever reason.)

Nice if you want to have lots of shops around the galaxy, but irrelevant if you just want to focus on one shop.

Personally, I'd like to see more cost reductions on things that *do* matter - further vendor discounts, maybe discounts on travel, etc.

(By "things that *do* matter," btw, I meant "as opposed to bazaar cost reductions," not meant as a knock against people having lots of shops on different planets, which I think would be a cool thing, even though it's not really my bag personally....)
