NPC: Guarnien | SinaRO

Hello stranger. I wish I could offer you help on your adventures...

[Guarnien] Technically, yes, you're a Merchant, but I know an expert when I see one. You've been through the Merchant life before, I can tell!

[Guarnien] However, what I have to teach would only benefit Merchants. Trading and money making are my areas of expertise. If you have any Merchant friends, send them to me.

[Guarnien] We can't even begin to fathom the number of markets and people out there in this wide, wide world of ours.

[Guarnien] All of them are possible customers and business partners. Of course, it'll be up to you to meet them. If you can be sincerely kind to everyone that you meet, you'll have no problem.

Dialogue ends here

I believe it's time for my final lecture. I'll discuss the definitive skill of the Merchant: ^871F78Vending^000000. Please listen carefully.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] The Vending skill is an active skill which allows you to open your own shop where you stand. Vending allows you to do real business with other people.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] However, you can only vend items that are stored in your PushCart, so you'll need one of those. The maximum price you can set for each item is 99,990,000 Zeny.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Basically, you've got to learn the Push Cart skill first before you can learn the Vending skill.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] The higher the level of the Vending skill, the more items you can vend at one time. Vending is mastered at Skill Level 10.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Level 1 Vending allows you to vend a total of 3 items at one time. Each time you level up the Vending skill, the total number of items you can vend will increase by one.

Script requirement

But I see that you must already know that, huh? Well, seeing as you're so clever, I think you've earned this little prize~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] But it looks like I just put my foot in my mouth. I'm sorry, I didn't notice that you already mastered the Vending skill...

Script requirement

[Guarnien] You're such an excellent student! Please, take this little reward for all your efforts~

Script requirement

For your final assignment, I will ask you to learn the Vending skill up to Skill Level 4. Of course, once you do, I'll give you a little reward. I'll be waiting, so do your best~

Dialogue ends here

So... How much have you learned about Vending?

Excellent! You've taught yourself well. Here, you've earned this little reward~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Oh, I see that you're very serious about being a Merchant. I'm proud that you've managed to master this skill! Here, you deserve this reward! Hmm... Haven't learned Level 4 Vending yet, huh? Just keep in mind that being able to vend things is one of the defining characteristics of being a Merchant!

Dialogue ends here

[Guarnien] Ah, now you have mastered the fundamentals of the Merchant class. Just keep practicing the basic principles, like researching the market for item prices, and you should be fine.

[Guarnien] Although everything we do is for money, never forget customer needs and always sell your products at a suitably fair price. Otherwise, no one may buy your goods!

[Guarnien] Well, there's nothing more I can teach you for now. Go out into the world and make your mark as a Merchant.

[Guarnien] And feel free to visit me whenever the mood strikes you. Good luck to you~

Dialogue ends here

Now to talk about ^871F78Push Cart^000000. First off, you need to know Level 5 Increase Weight Limit before you can even learn the Push Cart skill.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Push Cart can be mastered at Skill Level 10. This skill allows you to carry a Push Cart with you. You can carry a maximum of 100 different kinds of items that weigh less than 8,000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] As you can see, this skill is an advanced form of the Increase Weight Limit skill. You can procure a PushCart from most Kafra Ladies for a certain fee.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Once you have rented a Cart, you can hold on to it so long as you don't take it off. The disadvantage to using a PushCart is that your movement speed is reduced to almost half! Horrible, isn't it?

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Fortunately, when you increase the level of the Push Cart skill, your movement speed will slowly be restored. With Push Cart Level 10, a PushCart won't slow you down at all!

Script requirement

Ah, and I see that you've been focusing on learning Push Cart. Although you might still have a problem with your movement speed, it shouldn't be a big deal. Well done~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Wonderful! You've already mastered the Push Cart skill. You truly deserve a little bit of a reward~

Script requirement

For now, why don't you learn the Push Cart skill up to Level 4? Once you do that, I can go on to my next lecture.

Dialogue ends here

So, have you learned Push Cart up to Level 4 like I asked?

Well done~ You've been a very cooperative student. You deserve a little reward for your effort~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Excellent! You've actually went above and beyond mastered the Push Cart skill. Great work! Still not there, huh? Well, remember that you need Level 5 Increase Weight Limit before you can learn the Push Cart skill. I hope that helps.

Dialogue ends here

[Guarnien] Next time, I'll talk about the skill that sets Merchants apart from all the other classes: ^871F78Vending^000000. So don't miss it!

Dialogue ends here

Ah, ready to learn already, are you? Alright, let me tell you about ^871F78Over Charge^000000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Like Discount, Over Charge is a Passive skill that can be mastered at Skill Level 10. Therefore, it doesn't require SP to use it.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Over Charge allows you to sell items to NPC shops for more Zeny. The higher your Over Charge Skill Level, the more Zeny you'll receive for items sold to NPCs.

Script requirement

Ah, you've already learned Level 4 Over Charge. Perfect! Let me give you a little reward~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Amazing! You've already mastered the Over Charge skill! You must have wanted this reward badly~

Script requirement

Personally, I think you should learn this skill for sure! For your next assignment, learn Over Charge up to Level 4. It shouldn't be too difficult to do.

[Guarnien] Once you do that, we can talk about more advanced stuff. Do your best~

Dialogue ends here

So... How is it going with learning that ^871F78Over Charge^000000 skill?

Nice work! I can tell that you've done just as I asked. Please, take this little reward~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Whoa... You actually mastered Over Charge? Most impressive! You deserve a small reward for your work! Mm? You haven't learned Over Charge up to Skill Level 4 yet? There's no rush, but I won't be able to lecture on anything until you finish this little task.

Dialogue ends here

[Guarnien] Next time, I'll discuss the Push Cart skill. Be ready for this lecture, as Push Cart is one of the more important skills for a Merchant.

Dialogue ends here

Let me see those Red Potions. Now, how much did you pay for these...?

[Guarnien] Ah...! It looks like... You were scammed! D-don't worry, though, I won't tell anybody.

[Guarnien] Oh well, it happens even to the best of us. Just think of this as an invaluable learning experience.

[Guarnien] Now, why don't you go to Prontera and try to buy 10 Red Potions from an NPC for the cheapest price again?

Dialogue ends here

Let me see those Red Potions. Ah, it seems you researched the market and bought the cheapest ones! Great work!

[Guarnien] Alright, next time, we'll talk about the skill that you can learn after knowing how to Discount: ^871F78Over Charge^000000.

Dialogue ends here

Hmm... You'll find some NPCs selling 10 Red Potions in Prontera. Your task is to buy the potions for the cheapest price.

[Guarnien] First, you'll probably want to research the market price for Red Potions. And always, be careful of scammers and cheats!

Dialogue ends here

Alright... I've given it some thought and I've come up with a little challenge for you. Bring me... 10 Red Potions!

[Guarnien] It's not too hard, but the stipulation I'm adding is that you've got to find the merchant selling Red Potions for the cheapest price.

[Guarnien] So first, you'll need to research the market price for Red Potions. Also, be careful of scammers! If the price is too good to be true, it usually is.

[Guarnien] Ha ha ha, let me make your goal a bit less confusing. You will need to buy 10 Red Potions from an NPC in Prontera.

[Guarnien] Prontera's a bit far from here, isn't it? I'll just use this Kafra Warp-- Mahnsoo has a bunch for some reason --to send you there right now. Get ready...!

Dialogue ends here

Ah, you're back! Now, I was going to tell you about the Discount skill, right?

Script requirement

[Guarnien] The ^871F78Discount^000000 skill allows you to buy items at lower prices from NPC shops. It is a ^871F78Passive Skill^000000 which is always in effect and does not consume SP.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] The Discount skill is mastered at ^871F78Level 10^000000. The higher the skill level, the less you have to pay for items at NPC shops.

Script requirement

Oooh, good work. I see that you've raised your Discount to Level 4 already. Here, take this small reward~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Incredible! You've actually mastered the Discount skill! You're such a great student. You deserve a bit of a reward!

Script requirement

Alright! Now, in order to become closer towards becoming a true Merchant, I want you to learn the Discount skill up to Level 4.

[Guarnien] It'd be nicer if you could master it, but you might be more interested in devoting your time to other skills.

[Guarnien] Still, you can't ignore the fact that bargaining is an essential skill for a Merchant! Come back to me when you're ready~

Dialogue ends here

So, how is it going with learning the Discount skill? Like I always say, if you can't make a bargain, you can't be a Merchant!

Ah, you've learned how to use the Discount skill well enough. Good, here's a little reward for your hard work~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Incredible! You've actually mastered the Discount skill! You're such a great student. You deserve a bit of a reward! Not yet, huh? Well, you should be able to reach that goal soon. After all, it's one of the basics of being a Merchant!

Dialogue ends here

[Guarnien] Alright, my next lesson will hopefully offer you a bit more of a challenge. Come back when you think you're ready, alright?

Dialogue ends here

Ah, you've come back to learn more. Let's see, what was I going to tell you about... Right, Mammonite!

[Guarnien] ^871F78Mammonite^000000 is a skill that lets you greatly damage targets with Zeny. Money really is power!

[Guarnien] The upside is that it inflicts great damage and only uses a little SP. However, the downside is that it will also consume your Zeny!

[Guarnien] So if you use this skill too often, you might end up bankrupt! So be really careful. Also, as the Skill Level for Mammonite increases, so does the attack strength and Zeny consumption.

Ah, I see that you've already tried this skill. How much money have you wasted using Mammonite? Not too much, I hope.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Well, since you're still green, I feel awfully sorry if you've wasted Zeny. Why don't you take this as compensation?

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Okay. Now I think we're ready for me to discuss the ^871F78Discount^000000 skill. Come back when you'd like me to tell you more about it, okay?

Script requirement

Dialogue ends here

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Okay. Now I think we're ready for me to discuss the ^871F78Discount^000000 skill. Come back when you'd like me to tell you more about it, okay?

Dialogue ends here

So... Did you learn the Increase Weight Limit skill up to Level 4 like I asked?

Ah. I can tell that you have. Not bad! By now you should be able to learn the ^871F78Discount^000000 skill, but I'll teach you about that later.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] There are a few other basic skills which you can learn right away that I'll talk about first. Let's not rush~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] First, there's the ^871F78Item Appraisal^000000 skill. This ability, once you've learned it, allows you to ^871F78identify unknown items^000000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] This skill works exactly like a ^871F78Magnifier^000000, so you won't have to spend any Zeny on them. Also, this skill is mastered at ^871F78Level 1^000000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] I see in your eyes that you've already learned to appraise items. Haha, although having that knowledge is reward in itself, let me give you something extra!

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Alright, next time I'll talk about the Mammonite skill. For now, let me take a little bit of a break from all of this arduous lecture. ^666666*Whew!*^000000

Script requirement

Dialogue ends here

Script requirement

[Guarnien] No? That's fine. But I can't teach you much more if you can't grasp these simple basics, so hurry and learn those skills, okay?

Dialogue ends here

Alright, next time I'll talk about the Mammonite skill. For now, let me take a little bit of a break from all of this arduous lecture. ^666666*Whew!*^000000

Dialogue ends here

You've just started out as a Merchant, haven't you? How would you like to learn the fundamentals of business from an experienced colleague?

[Guarnien] But first things first! You better learn the ^871F78Increase Weight Limit^000000 skill!

Script requirement

[Guarnien] You can't really be a Merchant if you can't even carry around goods to sell. As you increase the level of this skill, you can carry around more items.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Why don't you upgrade your Increase Weight Limit skill up to Level 4? After that, we can talk more about becoming a true Merchant.

Script requirement

Dialogue ends here

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Great...! Ah, and I see that you've learned the ^871F78Increase Weight Limit^000000 skill to at least Level 4. You're a real go-getter, aren't you?

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Since your Increase Weight Limit skill level is high enough, you must be able to see a new skill in your Skill Window: ^871F78Discount^000000!

Script requirement

[Guarnien] But we'll discuss the Discount skill later. There are a few other basic skills which you can learn right away that I'll talk about first. Let's not rush~

Script requirement

[Guarnien] First, there's the ^871F78Item Appraisal^000000 skill. This ability, once you've learned it, allows you to ^871F78identify unknown items^000000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] This skill works exactly like a ^871F78Magnifier^000000, so you won't have to spend any Zeny on them. Also, this skill is mastered at ^871F78Level 1^000000.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Alright, next time I'll talk about the Mammonite skill. For now, let me take a little bit of a break from all of this arduous lecture. ^666666*Whew!*^000000

Script requirement

Dialogue ends here

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Alright, next time I'll talk about the Mammonite skill. For now, let me take a little bit of a break from all of this arduous study.

Script requirement

[Guarnien] Oh... And I'll tell you more about the Discount skill later. I always manage to forget about that!

Script requirement

Dialogue ends here

Script requirement

[Guarnien] On your own? Hahaha, that's the spirit! But still, the advice I'm giving is free. It couldn't hurt to give what I say a little bit of thought.

[Guarnien] Well, if you ever change your mind, stop by and talk to me anytime. And as a Merchant, you should know that free advice is the best!
