How to maximize and optimize profit in Trade Routes

You will desire to become around all seven Outposts in a circle, clockwise or counter-clockwise depending on your preference, or if there are Reapers on the map you want to avoid. The Outposts in clockwise lodge, starting with the very center north (i.e., "12 o'clock"), are as follows:

  • Dagger Tooth Outpost (North)
  • Galleon's Grave Outpost (Northeast)
  • Morrow'due south Acme Outpost (Southeast)
  • Aboriginal Spire Outpost (South)
  • Plunder Outpost (Southwest)
  • Golden Sands Outpost (West)
  • Sanctuary Outpost (Northwest)

At whichever Outpost you spawn at or are otherwise on, you will want to raise the Merchant Alliance Emissary Flag; after this, purchase every unmarried commodity crate you can at the Outpost. So, you will want to organize these crates on your ship in a circle, with each part of the circumvolve respective to which Outpost the Commodity is sought-after on the map. Exist certain to check the Outpost Inventories next to the Merchat Brotherhood vendor at the Outpost dock.
