Rank | Challenge | Effects |
---|---|---|
1 | - | Buy for 5% less and sell for 10% more. |
2 | Buy or Sell 25 Unique Items | Buy for 10% less and sell for 15% more. |
3 | Buy or Sell 75 Unique Items | Buy for 15% less and sell for 20% more. |
4 | Buy or Sell 150 Unique Items | Buy for 20% less and sell for 25% more. |
The "unique items" in this challenge refer to any item you have not bought or sold before, and therefore, do not refer specifically to Unique Weapons or Unique Armors found in the game.
Items you have sold before will not count towards the challenge progress for buying them, and items you have purchased before will not progress the challenge after selling them. For example, suppose you progress the challenge by purchasing a single Adaptive Frame. In that case, you cannot advance the challenge further by selling an Adaptive Frame.
Some vendors selling general items will often sell various cheap items you can buy to complete the challenge. Items such as ammo, resources, or some aid and miscellaneous items can be bought for very cheap.
Examples of general store vendors are the Jemison Mercantile in New Atlantis, Shepherd's General Store in Akila, or Trade Authority Locations.
You can complete this challenge by selling your items occasionally. One strategy to meet this challenge is to also sell one of each of your usable items such as one of each ammo type, resources, aid items, or maybe a single digipick.
As this challenge requires you to sell/buy up to 150 unique items, looting or stealing the various miscellaneous items around the galaxy will help you complete this challenge earlier.
