Server merges in New World Aeternum present a golden opportunity for players to amass wealth by leveraging the differences in market prices between servers. Here's how to turn these mergers into a gold mine.
Server mergers can drastically alter the economies of both the merging and receiving servers. Here's what you need to do:
Gathering Comparative Data
Create a new character: The next step involves creating a character on the server you'll be merging into or from which you'll receive players. This gives you insight into the market prices there:
Example: If you have a character on Marama merging into Valhalla, check and compare prices like Obsidian Flux, which might be cheaper on the new server, indicating a potential drop in value post-merge.
Analyze Price Differences: Use the price comparison to decide whether you should:
Sell before the merge: If an item is more expensive on your current server but cheaper on the destination server, sell it now to avoid a value drop.
Buy and hold: Conversely, if an item is cheaper on your server but more expensive on the merge destination, stock up to sell later for profit.
Strategy Execution
Risk and reward: This method involves some risk as market conditions can change, but the potential rewards are substantial. It's about making informed decisions based on data:
Selling High-Value Schematics: If items like Gorgonite Schematics are rarer on your server, sell them before the merge if you predict their price will drop due to increased supply from the merge.
Continuous monitoring: Keep updating your data as you get closer to the merge date. Markets can shift and last minute adjustments can lead to better results.
