Missing traders in rookie harbour

[Michelin Mayn]

Hi, I'm on my third file now and trying for 100% completion, and I'm onto trying to find all of the traders. I'm at 52/56 for Rookie Harbour and I've got what I think is most of the isolated ones (gem dealer, steaks, resets) but I can't figure out where the rest are. I've been reading on the wiki that there are some dealers that are supposed to be in the south exit of the zone going into Autumn's Fall, and there's some empty stalls there, but there aren't any traders. Are these stalls tied to the trading quests that show up throughout the game or am I missing something?

I seem to have a few missing traders myself. I'll have to run all over the town as well. Fun time.

yup, I've run through both of them about 3 times each now

Those shops tends to update it's list based on chapters. Also, some traders will only update it's list after you completed a quest. (New Metal quest)

I'm in the game's last chapter before the second visit to the endgame zone. Anything that's chapter based should already be in the list of merchants

I found something odd. The logbook seems to say there are 57 traders (or I misread) but wiki only shows 24... I only have like 36 or so myself but I am sure I found all. Sooo what is the log counting exactly? The actual traders or the items they have to trade? Very serious question.

just found out the wiki list is out of date and all the traders that would have been in the south end of autumn's fall are in the alley district

it's not got anything to do with the items, there's well over 56 things you can buy in rookie harbour.

Oh ♥♥♥♥ I think I figured it out. You have to find the traders BEFORE they move to the alley district AS WELL as the shops they have in the alley district. these statistics had ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ better be account wide

[Seraphita]

Well, just great... I guess the wiki is unhelpful for any of us then. I'll have to find them myself.

I don't think it would be like that... But sadly no. if you make a new game, statistics reset on the new game. BUT WAIT. Devs are planning to release New game + in the future so yeah.

the only other thing I can think of is that guy in the autumn's fall exit who's blocking a door saying that someone needs to vouch for you before you can get into the building. It sounds like a black market deal but again, I aint got no clues.

It would sure be nice if one of the devs could give some input on how your progress with the traders is tracked. wink wink.

EDIT: Just checked my most complete file and it's missing even more traders than my third file even though I used the traders more. I really, really don't understand how this works.

I found all of the traders in Rookie Harbor. I will pinpoint some of the traders that you need to check again. Click on the trader to update the list.

1)reset circuit guy(he will update his item list in chapter 10)
2)all food traders near the quest hub building. (interact with them to update the list.)
3)all traders outside the ctc trade building. (need to complete new metal quest to update the metal trader's list.)
4)all traders inside the ctc trade building.
5)steak trader(need to complete all 3 quests to have a complete list.)

best answer by far, thanks for the quick rundown

EDIT: apparently the only 4 I was missing were the updated lists for the metal traders after doing the Bergen mine quest. I don't know how they each count as two traders but ok.

[Seraphita]

Dang, I didn't know update counted as missing traders. Thank you so much! Best answer. :3

Yeah, that completion number is neither for individual traders nor for each trade offer but for the number of distinct trade offer lists that can be found. Talking to a trader after they've updated will include all previous lists, so it isn't possible to miss anything.

That information is so very helpful... This clears up so many things about what I was looking for. I'll be able to 100% my trader list now that I know this. It was making me crazy for far too long.
