You can stand on the edge of any shop. A mate uses a blunderbomb to knock you away from the shop. You can purchase 9 of the commodities, then your mate takes them from the merchant. Now you buy the 10th. When you get into the shop again you haven't purchased a single one, and you rinse and repeat. Kinda same same goes with the supply crates: but you only have to blunderbomb once and you can immediately take out the crates.
You dont sell everything at morrows. Maximum profit has each specifit item needing to be sold at a speific putpost. Tea at one stop gems at another broken stone at another and so on and so forth. Its a great little earner especially if you do lost shipments that take you the way your are going any way. If you go anti clockwise its the most efficient or the stops. There is a sea of theives companion app that will show you where to sell each item for maximum profits
If I remember correctly, you should skip whatever item is in surplus at the outpost you're selling at if you're selling everything at once. That item will sell at a net loss.
You make more by buying the surplus goods at each outpost and selling them in the respective outpost where they are sought. This maximizes your profit. The captains log does not take into account the money you spent on the trade goods. Selling everything to one outpost at the end does not make very much gold. You also need to do things between sailing to the outposts, such as sea forts, treasuries or world events. Another thing I recommend is to start off by doing a manifest voyage to get to grade 5 faster.
@@poolfuhrerI guess that's your opinion, but it's not a couple of percentage points when you are selling 5/6 of the items for around 20% less. If you're looking for "a chill mode" you would make more gold for the time spent doing other things in safer seas.
A lot of times I'll buy the commodities at one outpost, do a lost shipment and sell everything at the outpost I end up at. Then I rinse and repeat. Sure, this doesn't maximize profits but it does add bonus money to the sale.
