I'm trying to find a good balance with master ws and smuggler, and still have enough skill points for having plenty of different vendors, with a good sized item limit.. any help/info would be appreciated!

It is called - TWO ACCOUNTS

One is Master Smuggler, Master Pistoleer, TKM

The other is Master Artisan, Master Weaponsmith, Master Merchant

it is the best way to go.....or get a merchant friend to sell for you.

I have an alt for a merchant, there's just not enough skill points to do much in merchant with master WS and master smuggler.

You could go 3001 in merchant, that would get you advertising on the planetary map. I'm not sure what your vendor item cap would be though.

To maximize your vendor count and item cap, you'll want 0004.

This is what I am doing.. Already at master artisan and a good chunk of merchant... the weaponsmith xp is comming along slow but I am not in a hurry as I am still collecting resources.

Yes, I am Master Weaponsmith, Master Smuggler, Artisan 4 0 4 3, and Merchant 0 00 1.


I can have 3 vendors with 750 item limit(I think), I only run two vendors and I currently keep about 50 items on one vendor (best stuff) and about 400 items on my other vendor (Basic weaponry). I supply weapons to my town, but visitors are welcome.


I've even considered making a third vendor near the Mining Outpost on Dant. to supply fighters that break their toys, but haven't yet done that.


I can survey quite well, but if I dropped survey and relied on friends to show me where to place my harvs, I could bump merchant up to 3 0 0 1 and get my vendors advertised on the map.


It can be done....but I'll agree with others...get a second account. That's because as a weaponsmith, my favorite perk is makingmy own weapons for my combat guy to use. If you're satisfied with 100% crafter, than my template will work fine for you. The only other setback is if your harvs are surrounded by bad guys, you might need occasional help out there for that since combat skills are not great and zero medic, although you could set your self up with some foods/spice to get yourself a food/drug buff to help if you really need to.

I have 3 accounts.. I use Zanth as the cashcow, I dont have the skillpoints on the other accounts to take smuggler. (Melee/weapons/force character and dancer/doc buffbot)


I'm just looking for a nice balance of vendors/item limit. I think the merch 0004 will do the trick, can anyone confirm what this will give me?


I have around 6 vendors right now (surrenduring master merchant and master artisan for smuggler) and I want to get an idea of what I can keep..

merchant 0003 gives 7 vendors and 2250 items which is still quite substantial

so i would guess that 0004 would give 8 and 2750 ??

I think the question is where you switch between merchant's Management line and the survey line. I'm Merchant 0002, with 4042 artisan. This balances nicely as I have 5 vendors Guns/Melee/Heavy/Sliced and a loot/misc vendor. Now if they ever fix the advertising bug that still means I'm on the planetary map then I'm really in trouble........

The amount i need surveying outweighs the advertising so i have master ws/master smuggler/artisan 4043/merchant 0001 and i have 3 vendors that give me plenty of room, cant make things fast enough to fill up vendors. But if you need advertising you're gonna have to give up surveying which is pretty necessary for me even though i have lots of friends helping, sometimes i'm on the doonium first when it's dropping on some god awful planet like dath and there's only so many spots and i have some if i can survey worth a damn.
