Thread: The Ultimate Merchant Mystery
Has anyone really determined how the magical merchant xp is calculated. From around the galaxies here are the rumors so far. I must say that until about 3 weeks ago I was getting merchant XP like crazy, and now it has slowed to a trickle.
1. Number of vendors.
2. Number of item on vendors.
3. Number of people that enter your house.
4. Number of people entering your housethat pay your 1 credit entry fee.
5. The force gives it to us.
Anyone else?

Having more vendors should give more experience from the hourly experience per vendor. People accessing the vendor and access fee give experience to. People entering the house with no fee does not, and I've seen no evidence to suggest number of items on vendor, or people actually buying things, boosts it in any way.
However, it's very buggy. So expect your experience to stop and start a lot, and fixes people post to only work half the time. In the end, all you can do is wait for experience to come back. Placing new vendors can help, but it doesn't always.
