Why Did I Do That?

As some of you might know, I recently asked for help on making a new character. I got great responses and decided to go trader. All was working out fine, I found a new trade route. (Flax in Sargoth sell in Curaw buy iorn, sell in Reyvadin). Then one of the Vaegir lords asked if I wanted to be mercanary. Forgetting my trade route went into Nord teritory I accepted. Now I'm stuck. Whenever I go into the Nord land a lord starts chasing me. So now I should asked to be removed from my oath shouldn't I? Only problem is, the Vaegir king is being held captive a Sargoth.
How do I renounce?
P.S. My fighting skills are very poor due to me being a trader.
 
I would say find an alternate route for the time being... something you can trade for in Khergit or Swadian lands?

Sooner or later the war will be over and you can renounce, until then I guess your pretty much screwed.
 
Don't forget a mercenary contract only lasts for a month, once it's up you're free to do as you like, with no penalties for not renewing it.
 
Whoops  :smile:

But there are plenty more traderoutes to exploit..ahem to profit from.

Buy wine&fish in the rhodok lands and sell it in the desert(especially wine goes for a pretty sum).
While youre there buy all the date fruit you can carry, also some cheap iron&salt if you have space in the end.
Some villages carry these, and in general its a good idea too snag more date fruit from the villages, as long as its not too expensive.
Sell all the fruit and iron at Tulga and stock up on more salt and spice.
Those can be sold pretty much anywhere, but i like to make the cycle tour again, going through Swadia(snaggin some cheap ale in Praven from time to time) and back into rhodok lands and from there to the desert again.

edit: this assumes that i can not make the full tour by going through vegir&nord lands after my salt&spice supply in tulga.
Also, you can fetch good iron prices in a lot of different towns on the maps.
 
You can sell your iron in Swadian or Rhodok towns, and your flax gets the highest price in Durquba.  Head south!

Btw, one way I like to to raise my fighting skills is to do the bandit lairs missions.  They also can be easily inserted in a trading route.
 
Sometimes iron and tools are cheap in Dhirim, and can be sold just about anywhere.

Oil in Suno is often a good buy and is usually best sold in Rivacheg.

Looks for price drops on velvet in Jelkala, really good margins there some time, much like spice from Tulga.

Ahmerrad often has good iron prices, and Barriyye salt. You can usually buy flax cheap in the villages near Shariz then sell them for a good profit in Durquba where date fruits are often cheap.

Don't underestimate talking to town guild masters and asking them how trade is faring. Their first response gives numerical values of the rarity of goods in that town. Stuff with a really high number will always fetch a good selling price in that town. Make notes, so you know where to take them back to sell when you find them cheap to buy elsewhere.

Thank you for the explanation on those numeric values - always wondered what they meant.  Good advice on taking notes - I find it useful to keep a log of the price I paid so I don't sell for less than I bought it for (me and my bad memory).

I do the same thing, I actually note the price I paid for the LAST unit I bought, as it's often much higher then the FIRST unit I bought.

And that is exactly why I don't go the merchant route... If I buy 10 ale somewhere cheapish I go somewhere else to unload it but have to stop after 3-4 barrels because the price went down enough that its not worth selling there anymore (still profitable just not nearly as much).

Don't get me wrong, I like that the market prices change based on every unit they have but it drives me batty at the same time.
