Lazy veteran player here. Running my pc 24/7 which means my worker empire is also gathering raw materials 24/7 and afk process all of them while im spending time with my family in the living room. Have my Grana workers go to Calp to make Calph, Serendia, Brass, Bronze, and Steel crates. I make about 6-10 billion silver (that's 1 tet acce right there w/o killing 1 mob) in every month or month half when I turn all my crates in. This is for the players like me that has a life outside bdo.
Great video! I would like to add that you don't actually have to connect Trent to Behr (or Longleaf) to get that extra lodging in Trent (saves some contribution). So basically you can go straight into Behr and invest into that lodging. Also another thing, for turning in the crates, you can open up your life skill level window and click the sticker ui button in the top right. This enables that window to stay open when trading. This way you don't have to exit out all the time to check your trading level and do the bargain mini-game over and over.
@@EvilDoUsHarm I know you put tons of time in making these videos and by the end of the day you do a great job at explaining everything in detail. I’m just now getting my friend into this game(Mainly for the life skills) after showing him a couple videos on how to get started he’s been locked in since. Your content has helped so many and your doing wonders for your community and newcomers alike please keep up the great work and have a great year dude. 🙏
can you add and say that this : Trading lifeskill : is the best way Free to play players can sell their raw materials in node empire or gathering. because F2p players will run out of value pack sooner or later. then selling raw materials in central market will be only at 65% value. while doing the trading lifeskill will give something like 90% of the value of raw materials or more like 110% at most(but with more effort).
To all those who must connect the nodes to Valencia city. THIS IS NOT EASY, you'll get mad believe me. Some nodes manager are a pain to find and are in the middle of dangerous mobs. Bring your combat gear and watch for your horse. You will need ALOT of patience and DONT DO THIS IF YOU HAD A BAD DAY. Anyway thanks for the video.
@@thatguy3213 Personally I like horse training and farming for that. You can also do afk fishing and then trade them, but you need a lot of character inventory space.
Here's why I love this video and how you laid it out. All your disclaimers in the beginning made me decide it is not for me, which I really appreciate.
when it comes to the route to valencia go thru keplan and glish stead all the northern nodes...you can send goblins from calpheon to the keplan workshops and goblins from heidel to the glish workshops, this way you can benefit from additional workshops and the needed materials are provided from the big cities
i've been doing the same, Trading really is something, it's heavy on CP usage too. connecting those nodes. I got aritsan 2 though by just running regular trade goods though velia/heidel/gilish. Just max out your weight, took me about a week to do it on the oliva servers with the lifeskill buff. Really looking forward to seeing how you make money with artisan 2. Since i've gotten it i'm clueless on how to utalize it to make money
Amazing man, after seeing you talk about this for awhile on Twitch it's really cool to finally see the video for it! Thanks for all your helpful guides
Professional traders are like: Valencia ha why haha are you dumb. Levi: "Haha I am laughing at you, why you are even clicking on a video that has "beginner" in the title".
lol Thanks for the heads-up! Glad to know that this isn't the thing for me to get into, without wasting my time. Love your videos, man. They help lots.
Just a reminder: when selling your money crates dont forget to connect the nodes! I forgot it once and got only around 100k silver what couldve been 1 bill!
Awesome resource, thanks! My trading skill was lagging behind, and got a few spare CP from the recent boost, so set up a mini version of this ready to expand when I get more. Could only afford 3 guys, but they can work away while I grind out a few more dailies and get a head start on bumping to Art2. :)
1) calpheon workshop refining method 2)Renee the cat 3)effects of the wonderful bree drug 4) The shaia incident 5) Madame levintia 6) Calpheon workshop apprentice recruitment. Can't be bothered to keep reversing the video lmao
This is a good video but when you use the word "beginner" you have to account for if the beginner actually has enough Contribution to obtain all the nodes your asking for.
Not that I am complaining because your guides have served me and everyone else very well, but where does such dedication to a game come from? And let’s not even get into how much time you put into making all these guides. I greatly appreciate and admire your thoroughness, the attention to detail and your overwhelming drive to help others. Again, no disparity to you brother, but I would love to see you placing this much effort into growing an actual business of your own and retiring on or before your 40th birthday. :-)
I just went through the process of trying to figure all this out and taking a day to set up my worker nodes a day before this video came out. Damn it, lol.
The disclaimer does not come even close on how many cp you need and time you have to invest to keep a decent system running, Im just talking calpheon serendia and only one of brass/bronze/steel, if you want to do sunflower to get t9 materials and any junk crate on the top we are talking about 300 cp+. papu worker in Grana burn their stamina so fast, using mastery gear while processing gets you overweight also quickly so its not a total afk lifeskill any longer, you have to buy processing costume and worker lodging in Grana OWT and kamasylvia. you really burn a lot energy rolling workers, so if you follow any other of these guides (gathering/"normal" node empire) you can forget about those, like 3 workers + lodging for shakatu farmland? gathering one hour per day? forget that, you wont have the cp or energy for weeks to come if you want to get a crate empire rolling you will just end half committed to either of both. and btw, Im not talking about connecting northern mediah highland (maple) and dormann timber camp (fir). Im sure your guide will be great in the end, but you should emphasize a lot more on what you are people leading up to
thanks for the tips and the time you took making it man 6 months ,not being funny either i watch i gardener that does seed to harvest in her videos. i commend her all the time all that time for one video realy great work thanks for everything you bring to this game to make it easy for a noob like myself
A great guide still to this day. Are there any notable changes to trading with the recent updates? I keep seeing more and more players riding wagons and I feel like something's up low key. Would like to see an updated guide on trading system.
thank you for the effort. If you are looking for topics for part 2 😉: What do the signed percentages mean, if you buy goods from the mercant. Is it a forecast of price increase, or request increase or .... ?
For Black Stone Powder, not sure if anyone else has said it. But go to any Jeweler and buy the Green Crystals for 30k. Make sure your processing is high for max efficiency and then grind those Crystals. I am at Master 2 and am getting between 9 - 15 BSP per Crystal. DO NOT BUY ON THE MARKET! Hope this comment helped.
I had to subscribe to your channel. I knew literally nothing about this game, My guild I have been with for 20 plus years has been playing it for the past 3 years but I took a break from gaming for a few years. I started literally 20 days ago and have surpassed some of my guild mates already. Artisian in more than half my life skills all because of your videos! thank you so much, great videos and to the point. I am still learning a ton, but I watch almost every one of your videos. 2 things, 1 You show some spreadsheets and say you leave the link in the comments, for some reason I just cant find the links on your videos so I can download them? is it just me or am I blind haha. I really would like this one and a few others from some of your other vids. 2nd question, do you have anything for end game or should I say "mid game" lol... I power leveled to 61 using your guides "change tomb" etc. But I am main questline kamasylvia quests. Some of the quests require 240 ap, in full narch and capotia I am 225 ap. And I seem to be lost on where to go from here.... how to get up my ap? only buying new gear now? can I farm better gear? there are a few questions I have. A mid game guide would help so many I think.
Nice video, thanks for the complete tutorial, when you say at the end that you are losing money by running this node you mean "no profit" or you mean less profit than other activities you can use your cp on?
Do u recommend me to have a character always at valencia city? Lvl that one up and left that one there forever? because i can see that u use a character that u normally use for other lifeskills.
Hello there just wanted to say I have learned a lot from you just watching your videos I play on Xbox I have purchased pay to win storage maxed in calpheon I am trying to make 6 or to buy 6 workshops with cp and it says I can't expand my storage capacity do you have any ideas or what I'm doing wrong
Does anyone know can i get a timber create +2/+3 from Bravant ? Like if he jump level 10 and get to +2/+3 timber create any chance ? And second Q can we upgrade this bravant to artisan or prof his name yellow i think he is prof. Thank you for all answers guys.
Seems really complicated. Just started 3 days ago so have no idea. But I seen barter and think I might try that today think I'm level 24 guardian. I chose her to play
Can I do this to get to artisan 2, then take back all my contribution points from the nodes, and still have the desert trade buff? I'm only planning to do this for fishing.
i just have some question is it better to melt all my material till ingot than made the crate or just like you just make crate from those material for silver
I just thought of something ... if you have the celestial HORN ... just run all the whole way and then *whistle* for the horse in Valencia ... since that allows calling of the horse from anywhere.
Hi there. In Valencia, I can get 70 iron crates into my bag and move to Trade NPC. Also, I need to put them to mount inventory and back to sell them. Do you have any idea how much time it will take?:) or do you have any smarter way to do it. From my calculation comes that to sell 7k pieces it would take around 250 min.

@@MrReese is trading worth it?
@@thatguy3213 In terms of what? Money per hour? In my opinion most likely not, but I am not a trading pro.
@@MrReese money per month of mostly afk if thats possible lol

Im just starting the game 3 days ago, you helped me alot with you guides. Its easy to understand and im looking forward for another one !
Is it fun
Lucky new players :) I am a veteran of looking silly with a loaded character rolling all around Velia to power Trading level
Good old days 😂
Here's why I love this video and how you laid it out. All your disclaimers in the beginning made me decide it is not for me, which I really appreciate.
The man's a madlad. God bless you, sir
Another great guide, I don't know where I'd be in BDO without your guides. You're an absolute legend keep up the amazing work

Really need to start turning them in :D

O don't like trading doesn't interest me but took u 6 months to make auto thumbs up love your videos man
This is a good video but when you use the word "beginner" you have to account for if the beginner actually has enough Contribution to obtain all the nodes your asking for.
Really appreciated, I've always been curious about trading, but it looked like an abysmal chore.. I will definetely try this though, thank you!!

Thx u bro keep making video we like ur video
Is there a way to make this run in the background?

What about trading with a ship. Like take some trade items to Ancado while doing a barter trip to Hakoven.
How many contribution points do you need
Okay so you can store food in your family's inventory... dude you juste made my life better right here...
Does anyone know can i get a timber create +2/+3 from Bravant ? Like if he jump level 10 and get to +2/+3 timber create any chance ? And second Q can we upgrade this bravant to artisan or prof his name yellow i think he is prof. Thank you for all answers guys.
got Artisan in 2 night, Olvia server and buff. lol
Seems really complicated. Just started 3 days ago so have no idea. But I seen barter and think I might try that today think I'm level 24 guardian. I chose her to play
I should sell the crates to the trade manager in Valencia right?..
Can I do this to get to artisan 2, then take back all my contribution points from the nodes, and still have the desert trade buff? I'm only planning to do this for fishing.
Ive been looking for the spreadsheet, but its not on the description neither on your discord.
try this link docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Xh5JxAzpjpv20caF1Ilgo3HYaKlhMC9qA5qPYFf8nMg/edit#gid=2042026496
i just have some question is it better to melt all my material till ingot than made the crate or just like you just make crate from those material for silver
is the anbu site dead? i cant open it no matter how many times i tried the last few days
I just thought of something ... if you have the celestial HORN ... just run all the whole way and then *whistle* for the horse in Valencia ... since that allows calling of the horse from anywhere.

lol 2 years to the day that this was uploaded is when they revamped trading XD
dose trading life skill effect Imperial trading? like dose it add more value or only to trade items
so how long till I reimburse my forest path wagon and forest path wagon gear? :D
