Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes features a trading system that can significantly boost your funds if you understand how it works. Unfortunately, the game does a poor job of explaining the nuances of trading, leading to many players making costly mistakes. In this guide, we’ll break down how to trade effectively, common pitfalls to avoid, and advanced tips for maximizing your profits.

1. Understanding the Trading System: The Common Mistake The most common mistake players make is focusing too much on the up and down arrows next to item prices. These arrows indicate how much above or below the average price an item is being sold for in a specific town. However, the actual prices of items differ between towns, and these base prices are what truly matter.

For example, if you buy diamonds for 2,500 Baka in one town and sell them for 5,000 Baka in another, you make a substantial profit regardless of the percentage arrows. Always focus on the base price and not the arrows to ensure consistent profits.

2. The Key to Profitable Trading: Buy Low, Sell High Here’s a simple but effective strategy:

• Buy items at towns where they are sold for the lowest base price.
• Sell them at towns where they are bought for the highest base price.

For instance, buy diamonds at Wor Village for 2,500 Baka and sell them at Adamantium City for 5,000 Baka. Even if the percentage indicator shows a slight decrease, you’re guaranteed a profit due to the massive difference in base prices.

3. Using the Trading Spreadsheet: A Lifesaver Thanks to a dedicated Reddit user, there is a trading spreadsheet available that lists the best places to buy and sell each item. This tool allows you to:

• Identify the most profitable trade routes.
• Avoid wasting money by selling items at suboptimal locations.

Sort the spreadsheet by the highest average sale price to prioritize which items to trade first. This ensures you maximize your profits on every trip.

4. Optimal Trade Routes: Efficiency is Key Developing a trade route that allows you to buy and sell multiple items across several towns will greatly increase your earnings per trip. For example:

• Buy diamonds, hot spring black eggs, and silk at Wor Village.
• Sell them at Adamantium City.
• Purchase leather clothes at Adamantium City and sell them back at Wor Village.

By following efficient trade routes, you can significantly boost your income with minimal backtracking.

5. Timing Your Trades: Refresh Rates Trade stock in towns refreshes every 30 minutes. Plan your routes around these refresh timers to continuously buy and sell items without long waits.

• Buy out all profitable items in a town.
• Move to the next town and sell them.
• Return after 30 minutes for a fresh stock.

This cyclical approach ensures a steady stream of profit without downtime.

6. Key Items to Focus On Based on the spreadsheet data, the following items are particularly profitable:

• Diamonds: Buy at Wor Village, sell at Adamantium City.
• Leather Clothes: Buy at Adamantium City, sell at Wor Village.
• Hot Spring Black Eggs: Buy at Wor Village, sell at Impark.

Prioritize these items to maximize profits early and mid-game.

Final Thoughts: Trading as a Core Strategy Mastering the trading system in Eiyuden Chronicle can significantly alleviate money shortages, allowing you to keep your gear upgraded and your army well-equipped. By focusing on base prices instead of percentage arrows and optimizing your trade routes, you’ll have more than enough funds to recruit characters and upgrade your headquarters.

Good luck, and may your profits soar!
