You can also type Price Check for in the trade channel and see what people respond. It’s perfectly ok to reply with a “Thank you, I’ll have to think about it” or something along those lines. If the seller doesn’t list a price, you can use /t to ask him – just don’t buy anything before you get several price points. Don’t worry, this is normal and will soon change once you do some basic research.ĭon’t buy or sell anything before you get some idea of what the item is worth.Ī good way to start is to just sit in town and watch the trade channel, and see what price people shout out for the item you’re interested in. In the beginning you’re going to have no idea what the price for anything is. Once you become a bit familiar with prices, it’s going to be pretty obvious which currency the seller must be referring to. If the price isn’t followed by either a CE or cr, the seller usually means crowns – although some sellers might mean Crystal Energy and assume the buyer must know what they mean. When you see a price listed, always check if it’s given in crowns or CE. Click on the blue circle in the lower right to get there. You can exchange CE and crowns by using the energy market. Most of them will accept crown equivalent as payment, but be sure to ask. For high-value items, sellers will often list the price in CE for convenience. For example, 1.5k crowns means 1500 crowns.ĬE = crystal energy. If another person sends you a private message, it will also show up in pink, and you can reply to it quickly by pressing the R key on your keyboard. PM me, /w me, whisper, send a tell = private message the person, which you can do by pressing Enter and typing /t name message (for example /t Kaley great guide! :P). Mats = materials, which are ingredients used in crafting. If you try to send a second message before the 30 seconds are out, the game will tell you that “Your voice has become hoarse.” You can send a message in trade every 30 seconds. Type /join 2 to rejoin the trade channel. Type /leave 2 to avoid seeing messages from the trade channel. Do this whenever you want to buy and sell stuff, because you’ll reach many more people than if you just say something to the current zone. Type /2 before your message to send a message in the trade channel. So if you send a message from, say, Haven 8, people in haven 1, 2, 3… etc can all hear it. You shouldn’t use this channel for trade-related messages.Ĭhannel 2 is the trade talk channel, and can be heard across all havens.

Channel 1 is for non-trade talk and can be heard by everyone in the current Haven, but not other havens. There are currently 2 chat “channels” in the game, which can be heard across zones. Yelling a message can also only be heard in the current zone the only difference is that your message will appear above your character in a red instead of white box. For example, if you’re in Haven 8 Arcade, only people in Haven 8 Arcade will hear your message. If you press Enter and type a message, your message will be heard by people in the current zone only. Popular meeting places are the Alchemy stations in the Arcade and Baazar, and the area near the token trader in the Baazar. It helps to know where these are so you can set a meeting place with another player. In each Haven there are 3 zones: the Arcade (where all the gates are), the Bazaar (where the token trader and other trader characters are), and the Town (where you first arrive when you enter Haven). You will need to do this if you want to meet up with a buyer/seller who is in a different Haven. Click on the writing to get a pop-up with a list of all havens, and click on another haven to go there. You can tell which instance you’re in if you look on the upper right of the screen where it says Haven followed by a number, for example Haven 8. There are several copies/instances of the Haven area on the server. Pretty overwhelming, huh? But it won’t seem that way after you read this guide. WTS Even more mats!!!!!! And you can tell my prices are fair because I say so Make an offer – I’m sure you know what a fair price for it would be, don’t you? So you’ve just crossed over from the new player zone into the Haven, it’s a bright beautiful day in town, and the first thing that hits you is a chat wave of Spiral Knights Trading Ultimate Guide by Kalielle
