I think posting a map about "ideal" trade routes might draw thieves :D

I think the best way for you to have a successful trade run is... have lots of people doing a trade run with you :) or join a group of people doing a trade run [party match] (if you still don't have a guild).

Most thieves won't attack a group of people... unless ofcourse they are highlvl chars and the group of traders are newbies :)

ok i will mark a pic
give me a map, and ill mark.
basicallytake the second from bottom bridge
cut under tiger mountain
cut upwards to western ferry
avoid east ferry and east ferry vicinity because of poppers.
go west ferry
at dw side, cut up and right to avoid taoists you should folow the chakji and the ghost bugs, if you see a big skull house thing, turn back!
when you get to main road, follow road to dw
no use trying to avoid earth ghosts, just get on camel
and tank it
there should also be some high lvl traders/hunters that might help.
take my word for it, when i thief, i look along that path, and i look at earth taoists, and theres always loot at earth taoists cus noobs go there and die.

That's very true. I was planning on looking at trader routes to gain ideas to pop them.

going with other traders is also suicide unless you know em.
When their thieves will spawn and attack you they will just think :) now I don't have to kill him :)

Green is easiest way from ferry to Don, and never go red routes if you are under ~27lvl. 8)
