How does one become a successful trader?

Little ol’ dubioustyp0 wishes to enter the darkest pits of the abyss to uncover the forbidden occult knowledge of trading and the market to try and get richer in a game about lego pirates and flying sharks :grinning:

ask nuclearman man. or just sit around in a dumpster in a back alley with sketchy sunken swords and staffs that don’t have their skills on them.

Buy NFTs and Crypto, it’s good trust me

how does this have anything to do with getting sunkens :sob:

also I can’t believe NFTs still exist

buy when prices are low
sell when prices are high

Farm galleons, get an absurd amount, go on vetcord and either find someone selling stuff for galleons or offer to buy what you want for some level of overpay. This shouldn’t work but it always does. There’s always somebody with something you want that will exchange it for galleons

Or just farm coppershrooms, might be a little easier.

You asked how to trade, didn’t specify it was in AO

this is an arcane illiteracy at its finest

You can also farm acrimonies pretty easily in Sameria.

How?

Also @Nuclearman7 i summon u to give us a speech about trading take it away good sir and let us be amazed!

You NEVER said SPECIFICALLY it WAS arcane ODYSSEY

how?

Name 1 game that has magical lego pirates and bugged flying sharks in it, I dare you.

Also, why so mad?

This post lays it out pretty well

Your best bet is to trade for items with high demand items, either by offering fair offers or by lowballing them. High demand items such as acrimonies and sunken swords can sometimes get you huge overpays from desperate people who may or may not have much trading knowledge. After youve done that a bunch of times youll want to get a somewhat diverse/balanced inventory so that whenever a good offer pops up (either in game or on vetcord) youll be able to take it without having to grind for the item they want. Repeat both steps a bunch of times and youll end up with a balanced yet wealthy inventory

simple predictions can go a long way, traded my sunken chestplate for 2 halloweens on ao release and theyre most likely gonna end up far more valuable than that sunken chestplate is
(or they get re released and my value crashes, all part of the experience)

yeah my idiot ass traded a halloween item for a exiled shield back in WoM lmao

Why so serious?
