The Trade Packs system in the Raven universe provides a major source of silver towards
0:11
the in-game economy. Trade Packs are packages of gathered or farmed materials that players
0:17
transform into Trade Packs for transport to various trade posts across the world. Upon
0:23
successful delivery, players receive significant rewards in silver and occasionally other rare
0:29
resources. To craft a Trade Pack, access the Trade Pack menu by pressing T. The menu displays
0:36
a list of available Trade Packs. By selecting the arrow beside each one, you can view the
0:41
required materials for crafting. Each Trade Pack uses a unique combination of resources
0:47
including those that can be mined, farmed or purchased from other players via the market
0:54
Resources like salt and stone can be mined, while vegetables and small logs can be grown
0:58
on your farm. Alternatively, players can craft Trade Packs without any materials if they
1:04
possess a Trade Pack Certificate. These are found in the inventory under the Quest tab
1:10
These certificates are rare drops from supply bags obtained through defeating enemies, crafting
1:15
and gathering. Occasionally, quests may also reward certificates. Before crafting a Trade Pack, it's crucial to consider several key factors. First, examine
1:25
the global demand percentage for each Trade Pack. This percentage indicates the bonus
1:30
silver you'll earn for delivering Trade Packs in higher demand to specific trade posts
1:36
Each town's individual demand percentage fluctuates as players fulfill deliveries, affecting the reward. For instance, a Trade Pack may have a global demand of 132%, but
1:49
Orca Bay on Sajako Island might offer a higher reward at 155%, while Seabreeze on Harbor
1:57
Island has a lower demand at 126%. Another important factor is the distance travelled
2:04
which directly impacts a Trade Pack's value. Every tile between trade posts adds 12 silver
2:10
to the base value. For example, transporting a Trade Pack from Ravencrest to Margrove
2:16
which is 124 tiles away, would yield 2808 extra silver. However, a journey to Seabreeze
2:24
over 1115 tiles, would provide a much larger payout of 13,380 extra silver
2:32
When combined with demand and Trade Pack value, it may be more lucrative to travel further
2:38
with a lower demand bonus, while shorter, safer routes can be better with a higher demand
2:43
bonus. Players must decide which materials to prioritise and which routes will maximise
2:49
their rewards by delivering to trade posts offering favourable demand bonuses. After deciding which Trade Pack to craft and gathering the required materials, or obtaining
3:00
a Trade Pack certificate, head to any of the world's trade posts, locate the Monk Merchant
3:06
and ask to craft a Trade Pack. Here you can access the same information found in the Trade
3:11
Pack menu, allowing you to select your desired Trade Pack. At the bottom of the menu you
3:16
can either create it using your materials or use certificate if this is available. This
3:22
process consumes effort, a resource that's earned by slaying creatures and completing
3:28
quests. You can carry multiple Trade Packs at once by using a wagon for overland transport
3:35
To create a wagon, press CTRL while clicking on your character with the right mouse button
3:41
Let's create wagon and then press on the wagon and press Get On Wagon to attach it
3:46
With the wagon equipped alongside your mount, you can transport multiple Trade Packs and
3:52
upgrading your wagon will increase your Trade Pack carrying capacity. You must exercise
3:57
caution though, since wagons can be attacked and if you dismount, the wagon becomes detached
4:03
from your mount. The same rules apply if you log out or die, enabling others to steal your
4:09
Trade Packs. Higher tier, faster mounts are valuable as they improve delivery efficiency
4:15
and mount strength improves your mount's wagon pulling speed. Once a Trade Pack is crafted
4:21
you'll see a yellow icon next to your character name, indicating to both you and other players
4:26
that you're carrying a Trade Pack. You can't deliver it to the same Merchant where it was
4:31
crafted, it must be taken to a different Trade Post for handover. If delivering Trade Packs
4:36
by sea, upgraded ships allow you to carry additional Trade Packs. First, create a Trade
4:43
Pack and you must store it with the Monk Warehouse which is next to the docks in every city
4:48
When you enter the ocean, the Packs will automatically transfer to your ship's storage if it has
4:54
the capacity to carry a Trade Pack. Remember to always remain cautious while carrying Trade
4:59
Packs, as dying or logging out will cause the Trade Packs to drop, leaving it up for
5:04
grabs by other players. If you're in a conflict or war zone, others can kill you and take
5:10
your Trade Packs. If you prefer avoiding combat, wait for these zones to be at peace. However
5:17
sea routes remain PvP enabled at all times, where you'll always be at risk, except near
5:23
the docks which are protection zones, so delivering by sea always comes with a significant risk
5:29
If you're feeling bold, delivering Trade Packs in PvP War Mode channels will offer
5:34
you a 20% silver bonus. However, you can be attacked anywhere by anyone at any time in
5:41
the War Mode channel. https://www.pvpwar.com.au
