If you merched and now you don't know what to merch.... maybe you were not very successful. Weapons are the hardest to merch but the easiest to make money on I find because nobody knows prices. I would do overall dex 30% and ear 30 dex. stick with 2 scrolls and pick 1 weapon and learn all prices for att ranges. gl

u can start merching july 14th since that day things will get inflated/deflated for all the events and stuff if you want to start like now u can try some scrolls that sell fast(gfa 60%,overall for dex 10%, etc.) hope that helped =D

WG's, GFA 60%'s, Blade Scrolls, Dagger Scrolls, Chaos Scrolls. what i would do is camp at mushy shrine cc1 and rip off people who dont know prices. you can study the prices by going to Items(the top tab in basil)>No Class/Common/_____(insert class) and look at the scrolls, etc.

Don't buy Earring for Dex 60%, that's for sure. Try merching dagger att scrolls, those seem to be rising in demand. GFA's are always in demand, so definitely go for those. Overall INT 30/60 is also almost always going to be in demand. As well as Overall DEX 30/60. Also, work gloves are in demand. I don't suggest pac's because I don't know how high in demand they are. That is all.

Basically I started from 30m and built myself a nice nest of 150m in just a few days by merchanting off the Maple Anniversary. Now what I do is, when bored from training, I go to the FM and just stand there. When I see someone who doesn't seem to know their prices, I trade them and proceed to buy it cheap and then resell it in a shop. If I know I'm going to be gone for a day, I spend an entire day buying like 30+ mill worth of cheap Crystals and Crystal ores and resell them for double the price in a shop while I'm away. I come back and I double the mesos, sometimes triple the mesos, I invested. Also spend time looking at what other merchants are paying for items in FM (B>GFA 60% XXXm @@@) and see what they sell for or are placed for in shops. Make up a decision on what you want to sell them for and what you are willing to buy them for. There you go for prices.

Lol, merch dam noobs man and learn to smooth talk. I merched for the first time and made 800mil+ in 2 days without a shop in a total of around 6-8hours all together. Heneh0es are good as well as noobs in the fm with bad equips. I personally don't merch alot of things nor am I a proffesional merch but I just buy things that can make me at least 3mil+ profit.
