Ok, I must just be dumb or I am searching for the wrong thing, but how do you become a trader? So I am Euro, in Constantinople I went to the Merchant Lady and joined her guild. Then I bought a bronze bag, then I went to the stable, and bought a camel. So now what? I couldn't equip the bag and I couldn't summon the camel. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for helping a noob...

Did you make an alias at the trader place? If not that would be the problem.

Seri~~

if u dont make an alias even if u joined the trader guild ur still not a trader ^.^

go to that lady and choose create trader alias, and u can also change the alias but it cost like 1-8mil or something like that ;bbb

Thanks everyone that did the trick, I made the alias and then dropped that bag thing into the slot and poof I am now a trader.

Now the adventure, so I tried to do my first trade run, loaded up my camel and started off to Samarkand from Constantinople I believe that is the place. So the thieves start attacking, that sucks, but I was able to fend them off. Well I eventually got to across the sea and started running into mobs, not the thieves that I just couldn't handle and croaked. Is there any way around that or do I just need to level up. I also had two players I guess thieves following me around, they never attacked just followed me, I guess they knew I was going to die to the wildlife.

How do you find hunters to help you? Do you pay them? I tried to find a caravan, I saw many but I couldn't find any party matches to join.

uhm, what's ur level?

22

Is that too low? Or do I just suck that much, which might be the case, haha.

you should get 25+ before you go constant - samarkand.

Thanks, I'll wait till 25 then.
