OMG how many 1star trades was that? You must have had friends helping, cause the cost of horse pots and everything would have been crazy.

1 star means it is a low profit run. You don't carry so much goods.

Here are some useful tips to think about when trading your first time.

A chart too see how much goods you can buy untill you reach next difficulty level of your trade.

1 star = easiest and no player thief can attack you
2-5 stars = you can be attacked by other players and you will get more npc thief spawns the more stars you have

I advice you to have someone higher level with you on your first trade. Makes things much easier untill you get acquainted with the whole trading bit.

I think if you're 1 star the thieves are lvl 18.

I think they spawn 0~3 lvls below you, (with 1 star). And a higher lvl with more stars.

I have the utmost respect for anyone who hunts or theives below lvl 52.

Wow, that's really good.

Also, pvping in Pacific looks like it's gonna be EASY. Almost every single person I've seen doing a job is level 2x or 3x.

I'm gonna start at 3 or 4x.

lexies2 · Post by **lexies2** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 2:18 am

depends on the job. Thiefs, not worth it since you get killed by high lvl hunters, hunters not worth it, you get killed by thiefs npc or them, merchants semi-worth it...if you have a good route.
