Hi all.
I am a Master Armorsmith who is struggling with not enough points to keep my scout and survay skills and still Master Merchant. Here is my question. Do you think it is more effective to have more vendors each labeled with what they sell or fewer vedors who talk to the customers and explain what each have?

I personally don't use ad barking but I am sure some people do use it in innovative ways. I personall like having my vendors separated out into categories so people don't have to look at pharmacueticals (which generally take up a lot of space) to see weapon powerups (and before you suggest the category list there is the issue of factory crates all showing up together and the fact that most users are too lazy look in different categories)
But how many vendors do you really need for armorsmith? Are you using one vendor per type of armor? How many types to you sell consistantly?

I basically have 4 kinds of vendors. 1st is for buying and selling metals hides ore and the like.2nd is for Advanced armor types (the high end stuff that combat types want) 3rd Is for low end armor low cost to make and sell for the new folks to buy and sell me low end hide on. 4th is the Custom Order Vendor.
As of now none of them can speak and I make armor segments to Label what prices I am paying for what so people know what to set their prices for offers for. Also they are just random NPCs at this time (Kinda funny my high end armor seller came out as a wookiee its likely really a good thing she can't speak)
