In Merchantry, Adventurers can acquire various amounts of items and resources to aid your adventure. Explore numerous towns as you increase Amity with the town’s merchants and purchase special items that are only available in certain towns to further improve your trade!

 

Merchantry can be accessed by tapping [Merchantry] on the main menu. It can also be accessed via the [Trading Post] in the Camp.

※ Merchantry is available upon defeating Hexe Marie.

 

 

 

To begin Merchantry, a horse is needed to pull the wagon.

Harness a horse to a wagon by going to [Trading Post] > [Manage Wagon]. The grade of the horse will determine the amount of food that can be stored in the wagon, so you'll probably want to use a higher tier horse to pull the wagon!

 

✅ Check Before Beginning Your Trip!

[1] Trade Goods

Merchantry can be more effective when you have some Trade Goods at hand. Tap [Auto-Load] to move all Trade Goods in your Inventory to the wagon, or tap [Trade Goods] to place the items in yourself.

 

[2] The Four Escorts

Four Escorts are needed to guarantee the safety of the wagon during travel and to increase the effectiveness of Merchantry. The designated Escorts will be able to gain experience and increase their levels by gathering and fighting off enemies during their travels.

- Grade and Level of Escorts

A higher-grade Escort can reach a higher maximum level, and a higher level Escort increases the success rate of various events that occur during Merchantry. 

 

- Combined Escort Level

The higher the combined level of all designated Escorts, the higher the quality of rewards you will obtain during Merchantry.
※ One Escort can reach a maximum of Lv 200. As such, when the combined level of all Escorts is 200, 400, 600, or 800, you will receive additional rewards.

 

[3] Food

Food is a necessity to begin Merchantry. The total capacity of Food is decided by the [Daily Food Supply] and a designated [Food Capacity] per trip. Food capacity is also affected by the grade of your wagon and the horse that’s harnessed to it. The higher they are, the higher the food capacity will be.

※ If the amount of food is below 20% of the total food capacity, Merchantry cannot be started.

 

[4] Craft/Manage Wagon

By accessing [Trading Post] > [Manage Wagon], horses can be harnessed to the wagon currently in possession. New wagons can also be crafted.

※ Harnessing higher-grade horses will allow for a higher food capacity.

 

- Craft Wagon

In addition to the basic Freight Wagon, other types of wagons can be crafted upon reaching higher Merchantry levels.

※ You can complete events that occur during your trip to gain experience and increase your Merchantry level.

※ Each wagon has different and unique stats.

 

 

[1] Map

You can check each town's trade goods and market values as well as Merchantry events on the map.

 

While food is not consumed when you enter a town, it will be consumed while you are outside of one, even when standing still. Be sure to plan your routes strategically!

 

- Camp 

You can now drive your wagon to your camp on the map for supplies, providing the below effects. 

 

(1) Supply Food: Refill your food to maximum capacity. This will count towards your daily food limit, and you may continue doing this until your daily food limit has been reached. 

(2) Accel: Increase the speed of the wagon for 180 seconds. 

 

If you encounter an event battle on the same map your camp is located, other workers may come and aid your fight. 

 

- Camp Transfer 

Your camp is placed in Balenos by default, but you can select to transfer your camp to other locations. 

 

Once relocated, you can find your camp’s new location on the map.

When traveling

from one town to another, there will be various events that you can initiate. Rewards and experience will be given upon the successful completion of these events.
