I have a question on your server how many hunter does it take to make a trade because on troy it takes 35 hunter and outside ress to make a trade vs 15 thief without a outside buff

Other way around on Zeus, 8 man trade, 2 transports, 1025801571 BlackCompany Farking cockhead camel merchant thieves jump down your throat, not to mention they start PK'ing each other too if someone from their union takes the goods and not someone from their guild.

On Venice we can do 1:3 trader:hunter ratio for a 5* lvl 90 item mall trader no thieves
with player thieves, depending on the amount/lvl/skill we have 1 or 2 pts of hunters

Imo its too hard for traders/hunters now, if they can not outnumber well. When reverse immolated,a glavier with devil spirit has 60k hp wihtout any int str and too hard to kill within a limited time. Few reversed thiefs and voile, too hard to protect transport. +outside buffers for thieves makes them almost impossible to stop. 15 hunter vs. 5 thieves (2 warior), mostly thieves win.

Depending on what transport Traders use. On Babel, with lvl 90 trader and silk transport, you USUALLY only need a full party against a full thief party without non suited on both sides. Obviously, both sides have to be clever with what they are doing. With lvl 60 ox, the amount of hunters needed for a lvl 90 trader would go up to double or so with a good amount of builds like bladers, wizards, warriors etc to kb, kd thieves. These shitty lvl 60 ox can't even tank against lvl 85+ thieves in obligation for more than 10 sec or so. So thieves res each other, attack ox, ox down, trader comes back, summon ox, try to pick up loots, thieves attack ox, then it goes down again etc etc and it never ends. I don't even hunt for ox traders anymore. JM should upgrade stable transport level. One of the main issues along with non jobbed clerics that makes job activities go lower IMO at least is coz of it. If you go with ox there is a high chance to lose your loot like nothing in no time. Traders don't want to take such a high risk. I understand there should be some risk with jobbing. It applies the same to thieves with ox as well. Most of those fights end up whoever gave up in the end after like hours and the loots may not even move far away from where they would drop.

I've given up on trading on Saturn after what happened this morning.
So I was on my trader character and joined this pt with 4 hunters lvl 64+ and 4 lvl 3x traders that were doing 5* (I was one of the traders)
We were going from Sam to Const, we made it to Punishers (lol) when suddenly all the Hunters "dc" and around 5-6 lvl 76+ theives appear out of nowhere (stealth/invis) and pwn us all.

On Alps, a group of 5 level 90 hunters, including one cleric with no outside buffers (cos thats just gay), can take a 5* trade easily, and protect it well.

on sparta you can do a trade alone but not with hunters because that will attract attention....

you must be referring to the trade right before inspection =.=....I was thieving in my euro...at first it was like 8 vs 8 or so...5 mins later it was like 15~ vs 35+ =.= ...Since it was right before inspection many players were "online" so they call the whole union or something

Would have been funny to see there union chat constantly calling for help.
It was like that all day long not just one time.
I guess too many kids have the week off from school and have nothing better to do.
Being 1 of 2 lvl 6 thief's on troy I get allot of attention
