I've made a total of 25k...waste of time imo, just level up and you can make loads more off stones and weap drops later on. And hundreds of millions? That would take forever.

im sure if the econonmy was as it is suppose to be trading would actually be worth while, but with everyone buying 10m gold for 5$ everything costs more then it should so u dont' make enough on trades to even waste the time.....

With 1* popping and similar it is by far impossible to make so much money with trading only.

But in cSRO you could make that between Constantinople and Troy. Since there are like 0 thieves on your way and maybe 2 players xD.
Stopped playing SRO a long time ago; still pr0.

Here we go:
Best union on server Zeus = constant undisturbed 5* traderuns
Constant undisturbed 5* traderuns = Money. 750k every trade. 5 trades a day.
Now you do the maths :)

Takes too long, dont get enough profit, and you have to worry about player thieves. Only fun in going on trade runs is the sense of adventure :).

We should be getting market price fluctuations in trade goods but I dont notice it as much.

Nukers really own with their massive damage :x :x :x.

When I'm attacked by 2 wizard thieves (while doing a 1* trade run) my hp goes to 300 :( :( :(. 1 spell = ~ 1.300 damage >.>.

For me, I can make almost 100k each way from Hotan to DW...with a 1* load using a horse. But it gets really boring after a while. Its more of a "group" activity than anything else.

at 60+ 1* horse hotan to dw makes about 150k and im sure in 70+ its 200k+ and you can do a 1* at 60+ in 15-20 minutes if you are fast so if you are extremely short on gold (like me atm) its a good way to get enough to start buying tabs to resell as stones

Working on getting 1 mil doing 1 stars on my camel so I can get a wolf. Then I need to get more to de-level my bicheon (switched weapons) and force.

Gude from babel.

The first time I ever saw him he was the highest level trader out there (around level 37) during the 60 cap (this was the first month babel was out).

I always saw him doing trades and he would rarely get robbed. Eventually I stopped playing and he was a level 5 trader! (beginning of the 70 cap) ...

He was pretty rich from what I heard and saw :P ... Always saw him doing trades... always
