@@Onyx1776 Craftopia and Palworld each has their own independent teams. Also the arsenine decisions by Unity on the last couple of years could very much be the reason to slowdown or give up since even well known indie devs stated they are dropping unity for future games or even stop development with the engine due to unity greediness. Palworld uses Unreal Engine and started 3 years ago. I'm not defending em, just sayin that game engines "owners" bad policies can mess up badly the developers work and not every dev can afford to redo or often transfer to a new engine.

In case anyone reads this, despite what they said, Craftopia had not been abandoned, I assume it's just a much smaller team. I've been following it for a while and the last big update made a whole map and lots of dungeons, over the random generated islands from before. It's a lot of work. Might get abandoned now tho and I wouldn't mind if they did abandon it for this game.

I found a black marketeer really randomly and always spawns in the same location. He's at 145, -361 He is behind the mountain, if you can't find him, go grab the effigy that is elevated higher and just look back south and you should see him

I like how this man immediately goes for capturing them instead of suggesting going to places where they're always at (like the small settlement)

@@AParkin yup, it's called a Mau. Black with gold markings, often found in low level dungeons I farm them in the dungeon near the Rayne boss tower, right beside the fast travel statue.

Idk how much it changes as I've been using Vixy's in my ranch for free pal spheres and arrows (and occasionally gold as well)

I captured a merchant around the Rayne syndicate tower, but i completely avoided a wanted level by crafting a hanging trap to ensnare them first before weakening them with a club. It also added capture rate by being in a trap, so i was able to do it with a base lvl pal sphere. Just checked it's level and he's only at lvl 5 so I'm 99% sure hes the one that often shows up at the start of the game.

Pro tip for capturing merchants. You can avoid criminal activity and getting PD called on you by throwing the sphere first and having your Pal do all the fighting. The Wanted Status is only when you attack with your weapon.

So tag you were like why would you cook berries. I'm sure you noticed you and your pals in your group get xp for every cooked berrie

So what I did instead was set up a base by the abandoned mine shaft, which has a Blackmarket Merchant, that way I can make my way to him every day. Got a Mau, which farms gold in the ranch. There's also a small settlement with a waypoint in front of it, and it has both a Pal and Items Merchant, so i teleport from my base to the settlement.

Can you do a video next about passives skill best for player and for the base ? It will be useful to know which one are best when we buy them

I suggest NOT PICKING HIM UP! EVERYTIME you kill him, it is a Gold Key and 13k Gold. Just farm him if you don't care to have him at your base

just commented the same thing

There is a fast travel called Dumeshelter near Sazuka boss. It has all the Merchants available at all times in it.

Tbh, I just made a base right next to the black marketeer that's held up in mineshaft. It's a great spot with 3 iron right outside, a lot of protection against raids, and your right next to an area that tons of pals and and raiders pass by that lets you go out of fight them for levels. Also the visual is gorgeous there! And right above the camp is an egg that you can constantly get new Pals from every time a new one spawns. I've not found a better starting camp area yet. And literally, you don't have to capture a merchant and fill a pal spot with it. From your camp, you walk right in and see his trades....you're already right there, why capture him? And if you want different pals, just reset the game it does the same thing.

There is a pal merchant and a regular merchant in one of the towns on the first island right near a fast travel. Just port and sell to them.

A tip for the guards, if you attack the merchants with a pal you are riding it doesnt count torwards wanted.

There is black market at abondened mining shaft near frist area, just go straight around red area

Just a fyi for those watching, weapons don't scale at all. At his level he should be using the pistol for damage. The 3 shot bow gets nerfed damage on high level enemies, even if you out level them.

it's just armor reducing damage by a flat amount. as the triple shot bow is just 3 normal shots from a normal old bow....yea it's not going to be doing anything by then. if you run dungeons you will find recipes for weapons you can craft, the higher tier versions are quite a lot better then their normal counterparts. like the blue version of the crossbow actually does more damage then the makeshift handgun. it's also insanely cheaper to fire the thing compared to the makeshift handgun.

Hello, my pals keep dying in the second base design because they get stuck somewhere, is my palbox placed in a bad spot or do i just have to live with it and look after them?

Fun fact is that attack or capture a wander merchant who travel to your base or travel with mercs will neither get PDF spawn or wanted level on your head.

I wonder if the tower pal capture method works with these npc’s as well. Specifically the black market trader.

I usually get rid of wanted level by mounting a flying pal and flying straight up to the upper limits and wait it out.

@TagBackTV - There's another Black Marketeer behind where you start. He at the bottom in an abandoned cave.

To be fair, the best way for infinite money is an ore farm. Smelt it down to ingots, craft those into nails, and sell the nails to a caught vandering merchant. I for one caught the 2 from the desert village that allows me to buy mob materials and ammo athome whenever I want, as mining for sulfur to craft gunpowder to craft ammo would be a bgger hassle, espcially since ore farms are necessary for a lot of things. Gear, high tier pal spheres, tough building materials, etc.

Their is a small settlement fast travel that has a pal merchant and a regular merchant so no need to capture them other then to rest their inventory

do you have to give them ammo for them to use the guns maybe?

When I started in the isle of beginnings I found a very low level wandering merchant walking along my newly made base and pals were attacking him so I threw a ball and got him on one try he was probably 1-3

Another trick i have found out when trying to catch higher level pals, and this might be a bit harder for early game, but once u unlock more bases ur deff set, but anyway engage the Pal/Humanoid near your base and the pals at your base will actually help you out, so can have your main pal u use plus whatever pals are in your base to help take down/capture Pals/Humanoids a lot higher level than you.....THANK FOR THIS VID!!!😊😊, Deff gonna grab all these Merchants, very awesome tip to stumble across, especially for those still early in game like myself, thanks a bunch 😊😊
