Help trade runs. You get your money from the hunter associate after the weekly inspection i think.

Yep, help a trader successfully complete a trade.
As he is selling (the party must be exp auto-share) you will get hunter EXP.
After the weekly inspection you can go to the hunter guild in either town to collect your weekly earnings.

and that is based on the amount of the trade? Or do you get every week the same amount money, depending on your hunter lvl?

Based on the amount of exp you got that week.

You get some of their money. It isn't much, most of the money you make is from weekly contributions.

interesting, i always asked this to myself, but i never wanted to be a hunter so I never really bothered, but now that someone brought the topic out I want to know more about it. :)

So, how does it work exactly? do you have to form the party before the trader buys the goods or it doesn't matter?
Does it have to be auto share party for both exp and item?
How much money they make from 1 run? like compared with the trader in a % basis?
Do traders have to pay something to hunters for their help? or is the weekly earnings enough and that's it? (because I always thought that hunters made money by charging traders for their services :shock: )

Thankx :)

1/2]It has to be a Share/Share party. It doesn't matter who forms the party. As long as it is a trader or Hunter.
3]I never payed attention to the money. The more the star level/traders/difficulty the more money the hunter gets.
4]Traders don't have to pay but some hunters charge traders before they start the trade run.
5]The weekly earning is good, quite a bit of cash. If you help a lot of traders all week, even one star. You'll get payed.

A little off-topic - I was helping out someone on a 5*, when we got to Samtown, I was watching the hunter XP pile up...at the same time, I hit my inventory window and lo - the gold was increasing too. Made about 200k directly from the trade run. I assume (being a first time hunter) that the guild pay is slightly higher.
