    Trade Values

    I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on how to comparison shop or price trades. There doesn't seem to be an official currency as such and the barter system can be pretty arbitrary if you don't have an intuitive feel for how one commodity compares to another value-wise. Basically I'm looking to learn how to trade without either getting ripped off or ripping off someone else (or pricing myself out of the market).

    Reasonably frequently updated sheet for Zeus -- Don't know if there's anything for Ares

    Interesting, and possibly quite useful. Is there a key somewhere to understanding what the numbers mean? I notice Coins are not listed, and that some of the entries say "(per 1)". Does that mean that these prices are for lots of 400 rated in Coins?

    It is the price per stack, for regular item: 400 of a particular item, i.e. brew is priced at 5gc per 400 brew at min and 7gc at max. If it is the adventure or giftable gem items, it is priced per ONE item, i.e. 1 adventure, 1 golden parrot.

    Unless you agree to buy/sell with currency rather than coin, coin is the currency used in that table.

    An older trade calc -- but might be a little more accurate on Ares right now.
