Our first trade run...

[Miguez]

So yeah, yesterday night me and my friends went on your first trade run, struggling to get money to buy the stuff to sell in the other town, we finally managed to save enough for it, and there we were, five guys (the other tree couldn't/didn't want to come) on constant riding our mighty camels, the strongest in our group was our wizard, level 32, I'm a level 21 warrior, so we started going our way, killing these thieves who spawned, taking a long time, and finally we start getting close to Samarkand, but little we knew about the danger it was to walk by the mighty Kokarus...

From the horizon a real player thief came running towards us, we were doing one star so he couldn't attack, but he started luring all the kokarus to us, giant kokarus, party kokarus, everything, they started mobbing us real bad, as our guys started dropping I wanted to do something but I didn't have cleric nor the level to do anything so I just stood there watching everyone get raped, then I saw there was no real chance so I started running desperately to the gate, getting closer and closer, clicking on the damn pet potions trying to survive the crowd of kokarus trying to kill my camel, and just as I was LITERALLY two meters away from the gate, I dropped. Only one of us made it, the one who was smart enough not to care on the others and just rush to the gate asap...

Then this thief comes out of the town just to find my silk on the floor, so he obviously took it, I was very sad ):

We all logged off from rage..

Anyways, discuss your first trade runs (:

my first trade run was around lvl 21 and i always made it safely but now im a lvl 64 blader(Hunter) i always did trades but always when i saw player thiefs luring stuff i just got on my horse and just walked on spamming my pet potions now i only do 5* trades with guild m8's who are lvl 20 i think maybe go trade jangan - downhang next time the only high lvl you can run into are lvl 27 earth ghost and you can avoid most of them

I remember my first trade.. back at 70 cap just hit level 20 at chakji's felt cool bought a trader suit and 1* good.. managed to get all the way to the ferry only to be popped by a level 6x npc thief .. my epeenis shrunk that day

Not my first trade, but our union went on a birthday trade from Hotan to JG a few years ago. It was before the Euro update, and we were all doing 5*'s. It was amazing! I was leading the whole thing and when we went over the first bridge from Hotan to DW I went afk haha it was amazing! We had about 5 hunters and 15 traders. A few thieves were around, but we managed to stay alive. (Thank God NetWarriors was dead.) We went back and forth a few times. It was the best B-Day run EVAR!!!!!!

My first trade run i was level 90, i did a full 5* run from const to hotan with only 1 hunter.
And it worked out perfecly

Btw, im still 2nd trader on venus and i havent played in months lol.

[curvekiller]

My first trade run was level 35 or so with my hybrid wiz/cleric, just a one star on a horse ;D
That's really a shame that those stupid thieves do anything just to get a one star

[monmon33]

My first trade run was a early 80 cap and i was lvl 21 and i had a hunter with me lvl 60.I was was close to the white tigers when 2 player thiefs came. one was lvl 6x the other was lvl 2x. my hunter was fighting the lvl 6x and the other attacked me and we got in a fight and i won.I was like YAAYYY and then BOOM i got nuked by the other thief after he owned my hunter.

Heh, memories!

Back at 70 cap, we struck out for the first trade run around Level 21 or so, and had a problem-free ride from Jangan to east ferry. We crossed the river and ran into this bastard named Monkeycreazy (it's only been 3 1/2 years, he's still #2 on my 'people to pk' list and probably doesn't play anymore lol).

Think I stalked him for a week after that - I scoped out a few high level hunters and would pm them his whereabouts when he was suited

Noob trade runs are the best...lots of laughs when you look back at those times. I consistently got raped by thieves. This was at 70 cap when thieves could POP your trade even if it was 1 star. I would get so angry back then. Until I stopped caring.

This one thief made me laugh back then because his name was "Thief_". He used to run around with no buffs and mixed himself in with the other NPC thieves that was attacking your trade. You'd never know he was a real player until it was too late. 70 cap was the best
