- Bargaining skill description
|
Bargaining is a skill that lowers the cost of vendor items, and makes the vendor pay more for sold ones. Bargaining, unlike most other skills, has no effect if trained past 100%.
This skill is granted to thieves or any character who chooses the Shopkeeper's Apprentice trait during character creation starting at level 10.
Formula
At 100% Bargaining, a vendor will only have a maximum of 10% profit. That is, they will charge a minimum of 110% of an item's base value.
Example
The base value of a Greater Concoction Potion is 5,000 gold. An Alchemist that sells a Greater Concoction Potion will do so at 200% base value by default.
- Cost for characters without the bargaining skill:
(200%) * 5,000 = 10,000.
- Same item bought by a character who has 100% bargaining:
(110%) * 5,000 = 5,500.
