ok simple question is can i take goods (lets say Good A) from one port, sail it to another (far off) port and sell it to an NPC for a profit?

basically can i be a trader?

 

i really dislike selling to players and i find it anoying that Potbs did not allow you to do this.

MMO wish list:

-Changeable worlds
-Solid non level based game
-Sharks with lasers attached to their heads

       Yes, you can do this.   Actually, trade is a very important feature in the game, there are several Trade quests and there is even a skill (eloquence) that is developed by the kind of trade you want, i.e., buy goods in one city and sell them in another.

    there are also goods in fashion which change every so often so you can make an even bigger profit buying and selling those

    Taking a box of Bananas from Athens to Alexendria will earn you approximatlly 20-30 silver if you want to buy the topest sword in the game (player made) the players will demand 1,5 billion silver for it , good luck with your Bananas especially when you get PK-ed by some Gm's nazi - jugend.

    Sure you could trade the cheapest items for the smallest amount of profit possible if you wanted to try and make you millions that way.

    server location for one bbo server is in germany vco in na, also gameplay in vco you get a big ship to start off with in bbo you have to work your way up, essentially vco shallower but instant action bbo deeper but slower

    both are licenses of the same game from japan but updated differently, if you look on the overview q&a it'll tell you some of the differenceswww.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/295/feature/1402
