  Flamer and WC are going to be so abused for this system. Even at half damage, 320+ damage is something they can do easily for little to no cost or effort. :D

  
  
  At normal damage, a single charge of Ice Spear hits that much easily. Also, it chains.
  -> Ice Spear is likely more easily abused for this system.~

  I can't remember some of the stats off the top of my head, but I do remember that it's a two-handed sword with 60~120 damage.
  I'll edit this post with more details when I see it in shop again.
  
  
  Once you get an elephant and gain access to all items, you can expect about 100k exp a trip.
  Sometimes as low as 50k, sometimes 150k or higher.
  Of course, when you start out, the exp gain isn't anywhere near that number, but it'll increase steadily.
  Seems like the Japanese wiki has figured out a formula for exp gain:
  経験値 ≒ INT((単品利益 * 単品重量) ^ 0.5) * 積載数 * 30
  Exp (is approximately equal to) Int[(Single item profit * single item weight)^0.5] * Item quantity * 30
  
  Some margin of error.
  
  I might as well add that to the guide as well.

  
  
  Here.
  
  Now when you say "INT", what's that mean?
  
  Do you mean the stat intelligence, because if so...
  L
  O
  L
  
  Mages would get so much exp.
  
  But I'm guessing it's another type of INT. xD

  Oop, I messed up a bit-
  
  Yes, it uses your stat intelligence, except, since stats can have decimals, it is rounded down to a whole number.
  
  Now, I messed up in that, when you do the calculations as I said, you get a value that is 200 times the value you'd actually get.
  So, the formula's actually
  Exp ≒ [Int((single item profit * single item weight)^0.5)*item quantity*30]/200.
  Or, multiply by 3/20 instead of 30:
  Exp ≒ Int((single item profit * single item weight)^0.5)*item quantity *3/20.
  
  I'll fix my guide immediately- I don't want anyone to think they'll get 30.2M exp per trip!

  Added transportation section, which gives details on the modes of transportation.
  
  When I have time, I'll go make a table/map or some sort of visual that shows the times it takes to get to/from places with each mode of transportation (It'll take a while D: )
  
  And maybe I'll also add in a list of the best items to trade from each town.
  
  Clarified that transportation options are ONE-TIME payments.

  Can you go through housing channels?
  
  Looking to go from abb neagh to emain.

  Nope.
  

  Quote from Majikaru:

  Once you have selected and purchased your goods, your character will enter "trading mode". In this mode, ALL damage you do is cut in half, you are unable to summon pets, you may not enter housing channels (though you can still change channels), you may not use any sort of teleports (continent warping, goddess wings, beeswax wings) and bandit spawns will become visible to you.

  
  
  Added random tips at the end.
  Will add more as I remember them.

  Amazing guide. Thank you. <3

  So, what happens if you change channels while trading?
  
  There's a nice amount of spawn lag right now and I accidentally ran into a bandit so I'm stuck in one spot. ._.

  Mine just resumed after a while of it not spawning. o_o

  You'll still be in transportation mode, and you'll still be able to transport your load.
  Your load will remain intact unless you changed channels while there still bandits to kill.

  Yeah, mine just let me pick it back up and resume after a bit...
  
  But in the event that you can't, and you're stuck in ambush mode with your pack on the ground, do you lose your stuff if you change channels/log off/crash/disconnect?

  Under normal circumstances, changing channels or relogging while being ambushed will cause you to lose 25% of your items (as if you were robbed as normal).
  
  Though, under situations of extreme or unusual lag (which, seems to be the case for you guys above), then funky things start happening.
  
  Like this one time I lagged so hard during ambush mode that it took my client 10 minutes to recognize the existence of spawned bandits. Interestingly, after I disconnected and relogged, I lost nothing.

  This is so quick leveling, it's insane.
