Traders: Difference between revisions

'''Traders''' are normal [[NPC]]s that have an expanded set of items and extra money. They are marked with a <span style="display:inline-block;" aria-label="Trader icon">{{Icon|Trader Map Icon.png|w=30}}</span> on the minimap. Talking to a trader often leads to an option that opens the trading interface, and some traders have no role in the game beyond their trade inventory.

Each trader has a specific set of items they can sell. Some items are guaranteed - usually unique magic items - while most items are picked from [[treasure tables]], with some items available only at specific [[level]]s. For example, a trader that sells five rolls on the [[Healing Potion Table]] is effectively guaranteed to have five {{RarityItem|Potion of Healing}} at level 3, but might have a mix of {{RarityItem|Potion of Healing}} and {{RarityItem|Potion of Greater Healing}} at 5.

The items traders have for sale are special, in that they are not generally available as loot after killing the NPC. Generally, when an NPC considered a vendor is killed, their trading, regular, and occasional extra inventories are pooled into one<ref>Conditional trading inventory of some hard-coded NPCs like [[Ferg Drogher]] is exempt from this rule if the stock conditions were not met.</ref>. The final loot table takes 3 most expensive items from that expanded inventory.

 

The gold a trader has is also not lootable, but it is available for pickpocketing. Some traders have a large amount of gold that is '''not''' pickpocketable; this varies from trader to trader.
