(→Talking character: I just tested using hirelings as the talking character for trade purposes. 3 have high CHA, 2 have proficiency, and 1 has the option for expertise at higher levels.) |

The trade price modifier is set depending on the character that initiates the dialogue with a trader. Even if the active character is switched in the trader screen, the first character's trade price modifier remains in use. It is thus a good idea to initiate all trade dialogues with the character that has the best trade multiplier. | The trade price modifier is set depending on the character that initiates the dialogue with a trader.

You could keep a [[Hireling]] in camp for this purpose, having them join your party only for trading. Without respeccing, the best choices are [[Brinna Brightsong]] and [[Jacelyn]] for their high Charisma and proficiency in Persuasion. Leaving them at level 1 minimises the cost of getting 100 approval from a trader (400 gold). Conversely, Brinna can get Expertise in Persuasion at Level 3, increase her Charisma at Level 4, and get a higher proficiency bonus at level 5, where 100 approval costs 1000 gold. | |||
