Caravan & Trade

How it works

Load items from your inventory and send the caravan. Every item adds to the timer based on its wealth, starting from a 10 second base, with a 0.1 second minimum per item. The timer caps at 12 hours (24 with Premium). Timers update live, so changing buffs mid-trip speeds the trip up or slows it down.

Rewards

When the caravan returns you collect Azurite equal to 10% of its buffed wealth and Trade XP equal to 9.75% before XP bonuses. Payouts average your buffs across the trip, so a buff only pays for the time it was held. Example: a 1,000 wealth caravan returns about 100 Azurite.

Wealth

Processed and rare items carry more wealth per unit. Trade levels and the Increased Wealth node raise item wealth. Item tooltips show the wealth, the Azurite payout and the XP each item adds.

What boosts it

• Trade levels: +1% increased item wealth per level.
• Market: +1% wealth per level.
• Spare Cart, Increased Wealth nodes, trinkets and fief rights.
• Caravan Timer axiom and timer reductions shorten the trip.

Training

Trade XP comes from caravans returning, so richer caravans train Trade faster.
