Get some experience and levels before you start 'heavy trading', as you will run into robbing attempts when entering marketplaces and you'll have a better chance dealing with the robbers if you have some combat skills (and good weaponry, it's good to have a bow/crossbow).

If you increase trading skill with one of the companions, put 2 points in it for your character to get the +1 extra. Visit the villages near the towns for cheap goods. have 6 horses in your inventory (as 'pack' horses) - the cheapest you can find (quality of the horse doesn't matter).keep the army size small (but high enough to 'scare' bandits away),.prefer cavalry over infantry (for trading journeys),.increase the skill with one companion and have two points on your own), give riding skill and horses to all companions,.I just put it here on my blog as it's sometimes hard to find stuff from forums. The hard work has been done by the awesome people and gamers at the Taleworlds Forums. Note: I didn't come up with any of this (although I have 'tested' all of this in-game). Feel free to experiment and take on the opportunities you see :) You can learn all this info in game, by doing trading, using the asses good deals option in the marketplace of the towns, talking to the guild master about trade and production of the different cities, so consider the information below SPOILERS.Īlso, there are a lot of trading opportunities in the game I do not list here, because these are the ones I've found working for me. It might work for newer versions too, but newer versions might change the trade routes and economy.) UPDATE: This information is valid for game version 1.143. (All information is for the game without any mods, as mods might change the trade/economy/map in the game. You also learn an example trade route that goes around all Calradia in Warband. In this post, you learn example price ranges and thresholds (to buy under X, to sell over Y) for the most profitable goods. Trading goods is a great way to make money in Mount & Blade: Warband.
