Cargo page
Cargo trading is the purchase, transport, and sale of cargo from one port to another in order to gain doubloons.
== How to Cargo Trade ==
=== Buying Cargo ===
Each of the named islands has a Trader NPC found on that island's docks, which sells a unique type of cargo (with the exception of Clydesdale and Saint Christopher, which are fort islands and thus does not have cargo). Clicking on the vendor’s speech bubble will open the shop menu. Regular cargo (bought with doubloons) will return the least profit, Premium cargo (bought with copper or mahogany) will return more profit, and fish cargo (bought with fish) will generally return the highest profit. Cargo can be dropped and stored on a ship which has cargo space by pressing F while holding cargo in hand.
=== Transporting Cargo ===
Cargo can be transported to another island by storing it on a ship (as well as your hand), and then sailing to that island. The further away the destination island is from the cargo’s origin, the higher the sale price and experience gain (experience is proportional to the amount of profit).
=== Selling Cargo ===
You can pick up cargo from your ship by pressing F while standing next to cargo. To sell the cargo you picked up, walk over to the black square with the words “drop to sell your cargo” on the docks of that island, then press F again to drop the cargo onto the square. If you were the person who bought the cargo that was sold, you will gain a 30 doubloons commission on top of the regular revenue.
== Mechanics ==
=== Price ===
New low level players can buy regular cargo for free. The price of cargo increases as the player levels up, up to 30 doubloons.
=== Ratio ===
The ratio of players on an enemy faction to players on your faction in the server has an effect on the amount of doubloons gained from selling cargo. Cargo is sold for more doubloons the higher the number of enemy players there are in the server relative to the number of players on your team.
=== Crew ===
''For more details, see [[Crew]].''
When you are in a crew, all crew members will get doubloons as well as experience from sold cargo, but the revenue and experience is reduced slightly for each person. The Captain of the crew will get the most doubloons from cargo that is sold. It is generally recommended that you cargo trade in a crew to better fend of attacking pirates.
=== Stealing Cargo ===
Cargo can be taken from enemy factions' ships. Players on the [[Blackwind Pirates]] faction will receive extra doubloons than normal when selling stolen cargo.
