Rare goods trading

  • A fast way to earn credits at the beginning is to ship some rare goods. These can be found all over the place in certain stations and are highlighted yellow in the list. They give more profit, the further you travel, running into a maximum at around 120-150LY.


    However, there are 2 Clusters which can be "harvested" perfectly with a Cobra with 40t of cargo and the best FSD for the travel in between.
    A hint for those who want find the places themselves: Go to the place where you started with the Sidewinder in original Elite and some systems around, then travel to the space inhabited by Coalition in Crossfire and surrounding systems.... ;)

  • Some pretty detailed and lucrative routes.

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • Below is a more detailed rares trade route. It involves filling up the cargo bay with normal goods from station to station.


    The trade distances are optimal for maximizing the profit.


    On a test run i made 1.8 mio credits.



    So how does it work?


    You either start in Zaonce or Witchhaul.


    Your main priority is to fill your cargo with rare commodities.


    I have listed the max number and the number at which the rares resupply. That data might btw. not be 100% accurate since ive seen multiple sources with different data (but the differences were not that high). This is just to show you if its worth to wait for a resupply (which happens every 10mins).


    When you have filled your cargo bay with the rare goods then you fill the remaining cargo space with normal goods. I have listed the goods with the highest profit scale below.


    Unlike rare goods which are ONLY sold at Zaonce or Witchhaul, the normal commodities will be sold at the next station on your list.


    e.g. You buy "Tea" at Witchhaul and sell it then at Futen station in Fujin.


    Profit ranges from a few thousand credits up to a few ten thousand credits.



    The table below contains current market data... which means that it probably needs to be updated when the market values change. Right now it is valid and optimized for maximum profit. In case of Diso I didnt find a good fill commodity.


    Remember... only sell the rare goods at Witchhaul and Zaonce (there you have reached the best trade distance and get the highest profit for the goods).
