[Octopath Travelers 0]Complete trade goods master guide! Behind-the-scenes trading techniques to get veteran equipment as quickly as possible and a carefully selected list of god items for all towns[Octra 0 Strategy]

The trade goods system in Octopath Travelers 0, also known as Octora 0, is a powerful element that instantly changes the game's economy. By utilizing this system, you can efficiently collect powerful battle-tested equipment, secret books, and valuable reconstruction materials, and dramatically improve your party's fighting power. In particular, among the trade goods that randomly arrive at Wishvale shops, there are rare items that are difficult to obtain through normal routes. Furthermore, by making use of secret deals, you can obtain shields and weapons from the veteran series that are essential for the final boss fight.

This guide thoroughly explains the basic mechanism of trade goods, details of backroom transactions, recommended items by town from the beginning to the end, and the best route to earn money. We will provide you with a complete strategy to lead your party to its full potential. Let's start your trading journey.

1. The complete picture of the trade goods system: The economic revolution that Wishvale stores hold the key to

Octora 0's trade goods are the centerpiece of a town building system based in the protagonist's hometown of Wishvale. After recruiting Ludo, when you proceed with town tasks and build a store, items will be sold based on the “product information” and “trade item” information collected from each town. Regular goods have a steady supply, but the real value lies in trade goods. These trade items will be randomly updated at regular intervals, and secret books and high-performance equipment will appear in rare frames. The price is high, with tens of thousands of leaves flying around, but you can buy it after saving up funds using the reserve function.

The benefits are huge:

• Power enhancement: Damage output increases dramatically with attribute-enhancing equipment and multi-hit secrets.
• Acceleration of reconstruction: Streamline town tasks with materials such as silver ingots and gold ingots.
• Versatility: There are many support secrets that anyone can use, and they are useful from the beginning to the end content.

The disadvantage is that lack of funds is common. Let's proceed with the financial measures described below in parallel. Don't forget to upgrade your store (increase regular stock, accelerate restocking, expand number of slots). Raising it to grade III will greatly improve the appearance rate of rare trade items.

2. How behind-the-scenes transactions work and the absolute tips for acquiring veteran equipment: Minimize the cost of double the price

Secret trading is the dark side of trade goods, and the population placement in town builds is the key. At the end of the story, if you invite and place residents with the “secret deal” characteristic around Belcane, a special lineup will be added to the store. Here, battle-tested shields (high physical defense and attribute defense, with special effects) and battle-tested weapons will appear. The disadvantage is that the price is twice as much as normal trade items, but you can get these items that are difficult to obtain quickly.

Tips for obtaining:

1. Gather the people: Scout the “underhand deals'' in the bars and slums of Belcane. Prioritize things that are stronger than ◆◆◆.
2. Placement timing: Purchase the necessary veteran equipment as soon as it appears. After completion, immediately cancel the placement to avoid price doubling.
3. Verification example: The battle-tested shield has high break resistance and is essential for the final stage boss. Although the appearance rate is low, we aim to have them arrive at stores repeatedly.
4. Note: All trade items are expensive, so don't use them all the time and use them in a pinpoint manner.

With this technique, you can complete veteran equipment much faster than normal begging or stealing.

3. Early stage essential information gathering route: Complete map explanation of resident locations to complete trade items

To unlock trade goods, look for an NPC in each town who will ask you about “○○ trade items.'' Below is a detailed map of the locations of all major towns. Directions are also included so you can get around without getting lost.

Town name	NPC location details	Directions/Tips
Ember glow	The old woman near East Street (the old woman who is strict with outsiders)	Turn right from the entrance, in front of the research institute. It is easy to ask with power 1.
siatopolis	Upper left green merchant (merchant from Valore)	Near the bar. Since I am cautious, I raised the price of the relationship.
ripple tide	lower fisherman area	Near the boat. I'm aiming for tuna flakes.
Crag Spear	Merchant in front of the bridge	Entrance to the slum. He is extremely intimidating.
clear brook	lower boat fisherman	port area. The secret to rampaging is essential.
flame grace	Around the cathedral	Priority is given to silver ingots.
sunshade	Rightmost house/red resident	Get the collar and clear the boss early.
shepherd rock	Fountain right residents	This is the secret of ultimate power.
victor hollow	2nd map merchant	This is the secret of Honyari. It strengthens the spear.
Doniesk	central square	Permanent physical improvement.
Suhratarja	Craftsman area	It's a gold ingot.
bel cain	Endgame bar	Adamantbow god equipment.

Clearing these will unlock all trade items. It takes 10-15 minutes to complete one lap, and it is recommended to play the story in parallel at the beginning.

4. Iron-plated trade goods in early and mid-game towns: Build an unrivaled party with attribute enhancement and support secrets

Early towns (Thiatopolis, Rippletide, Emberglow, Clearbrook, Cragspear) are rich in general-purpose items. Below is a carefully selected list.

• Theatpolis: Staff of Prayer (Attack 83, Light Power UP), Tale of the Princess and the Holy Knight (Attack 80). There are also secrets to kicking the vitals and reducing magic power. We emphasize support that anyone can use.
• Rippletide: Scorpion Blade (Critical +50, Paralysis), Pirate Bow (Critical +77), Exotic Bow (Accuracy +41). Secure tuna flakes.
• Ember Glow: Element heavy armor (all attribute attack UP, Alexia firepower explosion), secret to strengthening special attack, mental belt.
• Clear Brook: The secret of rampage (5-8 random attacks, Saoirse event required), attribute proficiency (Alexia reinforcement), item generalization (super recovery).
• Crag Spear: The secret of intimidation (all enemies' elemental defense/elemental defense DOWN), boost enhancement (break firepower UP), enhanced spear.

With this, you can instantly kill medium bosses at around level 20. Combination example: Wipe out the small fry with rampage + intimidation.

5. Mid-game essential materials & late-stage divine equipment: Flame ~ High-end trade of Shepherd Rock

Nakabancho is centered around materials and special equipment.

• Flame Grace: Silver ingot (requires a large amount of reconstruction, can be substituted by begging), Trinity Sword (speed +100), Yukio's Great Bow (grants darkness), Sapphire Rod, Happy Vest (resistance to abnormal status). This is the highest priority material.
• Sunshade: Collar of reception return (early boss reward), Assassin Chakram (evasion +72), Steel Fan (critical +52), Ancient Ritual Mask (SP6 recovery).
• Shepherd's Rock: The secret of ultimate power (double physical firepower, large SP consumption), jade staff (light power +), fur coat (defense 112).

It is recommended to secure 10 or more silver ingots through trading. Ultimate power shines in the mysterious arrow rotation.

6. List of all trade items in the final town: Victor Hollow to Belkain's final weapon

The final stage is permanent reinforcement and attribute explosion.

• Victor Hollow: The secret of this spear (hits 5-10 times, specializes in spear weaknesses), Master's longbow (adds poison).
• Doniesque: Permanent physical increase (practical height), equipment update.
• Suhratarja: Gold Ingot (Final Reconstruction).
• Belcane: Adamant Bow (attribute attack +88, unconditional purchase), permanent element increase, magic compensation secret (magic firepower increase). It's the ultimate weapon.

There are over 100 species in the entire list. We will continue to stock items aiming for rare frames.

7. Fastest route to earn money & carefully selected purchase strategy: Buy all trade items with infinite leaf proliferation

Financial measures to eliminate funding shortage:

1. Organization: Merchant protagonist/Tresa (acquisition amount UP), Ludo (business negotiation 1.2x).
2. Route: Selling Wishveil (+10%), going around the Sand Palace of Ufu, hunting Catlyn.
3. Strategy: Utilize reserves and short-term concentration on behind-the-scenes transactions. Priority order: Secret > Equipment > Materials.

100,000 leaves per day is possible. Obtain all divine items with careful selection.
