70 trade cap, is it bugged

vikstoneye · June 2018

i shared 3 iron ore with the craftsman in pisa and then tried to talk to lorencio de medici but i get no response. a company mate has the problem. has this been changed or is this a bug?

My trade toon unlocked the cap. However, a company member suggested I use lumber and it did not work. I believe I used fabric for my toon and it worked. So it is possible that some goods work for certain toons and not for others.

Also, I am not sure what trade level you are at but if you are too far away from level 70, it may not unlock for you.

Judging from the amount of toons I see past level 70, it might not be a bug; admittedly it could be a game mechanic I don't understand.

Hope this helps.

To unlock merchant 70, the gvo website states that you need to be above level 65 and seems to say that the craftsman contribution can fail, requiring another try after the daily reset. I always thought the delivery was a sure thing, but in suggesting the player use lumber the website indicates lumber is a high probability rather than a guarantee.

It seems there is a way involving special production, but doesn't go into details.

It isn't bugged and there is NO probability of success of impressing the Craftsman. The mechanic behind is that they've daily a different demand on what they're researching in Florentine.

For instance, if they're researching "shipwright basic- casting book" and local specialty is "Southern France & Italy". Then every single trade good from that recipe book (see:http://uwodbmirror.ivyro.net/eg/main.php?id=01800081) or the specialty (see: http://uwodbmirror.ivyro.net/eg/main.php?id=141&chp=22), will impress the craftsman that day. You get this info once you share not the right good, the NPC will give you a hint what they are looking for.

Therefore, it is either guarantee or fail. Since Lumber or Iron is very common in most recipes... it explains why you can impress them often with these two particular goods.

One more thing to note is... if you've maxed out the contribution of this week through union (+999 on each category) then you can't share information and have to wait till it resets every Monday.

I hope this clears up the issue to most of you ^^

Kind Regards,

I did this lvl 02 July 2018 with 3 Lumber and had no problems. Craftmans replay when give item was Artisan was greatful. I agree With [CA] HuseyinGazi that you need to give correct Item to get correct result.

Lumber happens to be a popular ingredient fo most recipes. But it does not mean you have to act like a brainless dummy to only submit lumbers.

I thought the information on how to progress above level 70 was posted on the official website when the patch unlocking lvl 75 was released.

I dont remember ever having the crtaftsman not being happy when given wood.

I guess he wasn't looking to get wood at that particular time. it happens.

The easy way to do this is to ask friends or company mates for help. Have them deliver different products to the craftsman until you find something he likes. It's safe to deliver that exact product 3x after. The products he likes changes each day, as previously stated, but it's the same result for everyone on the same day.
