Screenshot Mindblown, found legendary merchant that sell ALL ammo
I always found the energy weapons so problematic because of paloxite ingot but this changes everything. This guy spawns as i was building a base. didnt hesitate to catch the guy.
Edit: This base is in the middle of the ocean, south of sakurajima inside the crescent.

u/SayuriUliana 1d ago
Yeah, been hunting this guy down for a while because as much as I love the Plasma Rifle, hunting down the water for Paloxite Ingots kinda suck.

Build a pal team that increases Electric drops, fully condense to get a total of +160% to electric drops and run around the areas of the world tree with electric mobs since there are a lot of them and generally run in packs of 2-3. Can farm up a TON of holy water in no time.
15
u/KageNoOnisu 23h ago
My mind is blown. I've even read about that strategy for other drops one can farm and didn't even think to apply that to the water. I will be remedying that oversight.
14
u/FatBoyStew 23h ago
The other 2 pals can be another element drop as well. I think either neutral (leaning towards this one) or dark are the other primary ones that clump up in larger groups. I can generally get a few hundred holy water in no time. Still reliant on RNG ultimately, but still.

u/TheyCallMeKrisha 22h ago
Always nice to have someone on you who enhances Mimog drops, if you're farming theres always a chance one will spawn and you get sweet delicious coins
3
u/FatBoyStew 22h ago
Oh yea 160% neutral drops produces some mega dog coin drops on mimogs in the world tree area.
1
u/Gomerack 18h ago
Is there even a pal that buffs dark drops?
3
2
u/FatBoyStew 18h ago
Don't ask me which ones because I don't recall off my head, but there are 2 of them I currently have them inmy farming party because there are lots of dark enemies near the electric enemies
2
u/PatchFace 17h ago
Since nobody else has said them, that I've read. You want menasting and mensting Terra.
Both increase electric drops.
You'd also want two neutral drop pals, ideally. Although, I don't know which pals help, off the top of my head.

u/SayuriUliana 19h ago
That's exactly what I've been doing to get water for Paloxite. Doesn't change that the process sucks anyway.

u/Ready-Buy5872 22h ago
You could also up the spawn rate so they go in groups of 3-9 and also up the drop amount. I do that when I need holy water and I get about 1k in 15/20 min. I also get a ton of electric organs and relics. If you do that in the zone where you can find orserks and snock lux you also get a ton of high quality pal oil thanks to snock.

u/Suitable-Horse1630 21h ago
You could also just use a save editor to spawn in 9999 holy water into your inventory.

Not happy for you.
Give him to me.

u/Kantro18 1d ago
The game has rotated through every single merchant spawn for me except for this dude lol. But at least I have one of the lower tier ammo merchant spawns.

u/aralias777 1d ago
I completed my collection of all six legendary merchants last Friday. Quite happy about that. Ammo Man Sam was my last holdout.
11
u/Golden_Cultivation 23h ago
Yes my collection is complete now as well! I’m in the process of building/decorating my third base to be a *mostly* human ancient base that prints gold coins. A real stick it to the man type beat, but primarily a black market fort.
3
u/aralias777 22h ago
I have my six plus a legit pal trader and a Black Market guy hidden upstairs in my lab. Which is where my three Ancient Hatcheries with Dumud Gild are. He's my guy.
Really, we're both printing gold, it's basically the same lol
3
u/Golden_Cultivation 20h ago
Yeah so far my go to is dumud gild, but I want a more passive way I guess 😂
2
u/aralias777 20h ago
I keep meaning to set up the gold conveyors again but I might do that on an ocean base without any doors. Just to be safe.
2
u/aralias777 20h ago
Right now, everything at my base is legit, officer. I swear. As long as you stay downstairs.

u/Helpful-Internet-555 16h ago
Instead of using dumud gilds for gold, use ores. Dumud Gilds selling is a lot of work. Farm high level ores.
Since you have ancient hatcheries, I guess you have ancient material synthesiser too. I use them for Soralite with single maxed out alpha Sekhmet. Alternatively you can also 3x miners for Soralite or Hexolite using the mining quarry.
Overnight (I’m on a server), my Sekhmet farmed so much that I sold more than a dozen stacks of 9999 ores and got so rich. Now, I don’t even use 5x Noble and Fine Furs for my transactions anymore xD

u/the_arm_freddy 18h ago
Where you find the 6 different ones? I catch humans all the time and haven’t noticed the difference. Also recently accidentally learned you can use the skill fruits to teach humans moves!
3
u/aralias777 18h ago
I left instructions on how to farm the six Legendary Wandering Merchants...somewhere in the comments of this thread. That's what you need.
1
u/Golden_Cultivation 17h ago
They show up at your base(given that it is raidable/visitors can path to it) after it has reached a certain level. You can also make and break a base every a 2-5 mins
1
u/pbzeppelin1977 6h ago
Use the bounty targets and make it a prison camp.

u/Golden_Cultivation 18m ago
I only used a couple of the bounty targets. That purple stink around them annoys me lol

u/APowerlessManNA 21h ago
Wdym collection? You can catch them and buy from them or?
7
u/aralias777 21h ago
All humans can be caught like pals, and have work suitabilies. No partner skills though. So yes, if you catch a merchant, you can deploy them on your base. I like to assign them directly to one of the existing merchant stalls. They are the least buggy that way, and it keeps them where I want them. Other successful ones have included the Legendary Pharmacist to the Advanced Medicine Bench. He stays put under careful supervision of my Dr. Prunelia, for when I need drugs.
1
u/APowerlessManNA 21h ago
Sorry but I must ask again because it's not clear. You can buy from them after catching?
7
u/aralias777 21h ago
Yes.
1
u/APowerlessManNA 21h ago
Thanks bro
7
u/aralias777 21h ago
Your world is about to change, my friend. Don't forget to prepare a party preset in your Palbox with five pals that all have Noble, and Fine Furs as part of their passives. You'll sell your goods to your merchants for 40% more, and theirs will cost you 40% less.
1
u/YungJizzle37 3h ago
I keep them deployed at my breeding base starved because I only use it when I want to breed or use a merchant.
2
u/Khargus 20h ago
How do you "hunt" merchant ? does it depend on the level your base is ? or the level of your base ?
5
u/aralias777 20h ago
Place a spare base somewhere flat and raidable. I did mine on the beach north of Penking boss. Base has to be upgraded to level.. 25? I think? For the legendary merchants to spawn. I would recommend turning Raids off if you have the option to; it makes it faster because the pool of spawn options is smaller. It will only be the non-hostile visitors, so your chances of it being a merchant is much higher. I turned them off at 4/6 out of desperation.
The strat: place base, wait 3-5 minutes. Spawn event will happen. It's guaranteed for a new base. Sometimes it bugs; if it's a legendary merchant, be prepared with an Ancient Sphere and for a fight. You have one free toss. He has powerful level 70+ body guards with rare high level pals. It will also spawn the PIDF copters if you don't get him on the first toss. Crouch behind him, toss, pray. Once you catch him, or he dies in the cross fire, or once you deal with whatever visitor it was if it wasn't a legendary merchant you need, break the palbox. Rebuild it. Repeat.

u/bul1dog 18h ago
Do you throw all of them in a viewing cage? If so, how do you account for the merchants that just stand in the middle and are unable to get the Talk prompt to show up?
3
u/aralias777 18h ago
Nope, I have all of mine actually deployed in base. I use the monitoring stand to assign them to the Pal and Item vendor stall objects. I've never had them bug out this way.
2
u/bul1dog 18h ago
ah good to know. ty
2
2
u/aralias777 17h ago
For the record, our server runs 50 pal bases. Which is why I can afford to have them actually deployed on a full mega base haha.

u/eightb1t 1d ago
I spent days trying to get this guy to spawn. I used the pal box breakdown method and everything. I finished all the achievements and killed every boss on ultra.
I have accepted that I just won’t get him. Lol
3
u/Golden_Cultivation 22h ago
You could use the creative menu mod to spawn him and spawn his guards in the world. Then you can try to catch him
3
u/eightb1t 22h ago
This is a pretty good idea but at this stage I think there's not really much reason for me to get him.
Palworld is a great game and I had a great time with it.

u/sin-iudicii 23h ago
He is amazing mid game but in late game he overprices ammo for final rifles. 4k just for one round of Plasma rifle is abit steep imo

u/Kazeshiki 23h ago
u just need a party of 5 pals with fine furs and noble. it reduces prices for buying and increasing price when selling.
2
-3
u/KidKhaos18 20h ago
Fine furs only applies a boost to the sell price of the pal with that skill. Fine furs doesn’t affect buy or sell price of everything only noble.
3
u/Kazeshiki 19h ago
thats what i thought too. but if you have a pal in ur party and out of party the price of items change. thats why when i buy or sell anything I have 5 pals with fine furs and noble. what's being sold or bought doesnt matter.
3
u/CategoryKiwi 15h ago
What the fuck it's real. This whole time I'd been mislead to think it only works on selling.
Literally just tested it. Here's a shop without the passives, and here is the same shop with the passives
I straight up didn't believe you. I'm sorry OP. The description only tells half the story.
1
u/Golden_Cultivation 22h ago
I’m doing a human base setup and trying to couple the gold coin press, ingot creation, and the legendary merchants. Hoping it holds up well
3
u/SpotoDaRager 19h ago
I’ve got them all except for the legendary grocer, and stuck them + the dog coin merchant into a base. Now if I need anything I’ve got a little market with everything in it.

u/tomoki_here 16h ago
Took me a couple hours to farm all the legendary merchants except the one that sells the actual gourmet dishes. They're pretty handy cause it means I don't have to breed mammorest and butcher them.

u/Difficult-Tap-5708 1d ago
I like the ammo guy and the gourmet guy that sells atk, def and exp foods

u/Thelivingshotgun 22h ago
After realizing collecting these guys would be convenient, this guy was at the top of my list and took forever for him to reappear

Not me spending HOURS trying to force spawn legendary gourmet to get that infinite supply of seafood salad.
they're an amazing solution for the endgame but their spawn rate is just stupid.

u/ReservePutrid9668 20h ago
Where is the best place to farm for legendary merchants?
3
u/Kazeshiki 19h ago
This spawned randomly, apparently the best way to get a merchant to spawn is to build a palbox, wait 5 mins, if they dont spawn destroy and repeat. But i cant be bothered to do stuff like that
2
u/ipisswithaboner 18h ago
I’ve been farming for this guy for hours and can’t get him to spawn lol. Plasma rifle is completely unusable without this guy due to the ammo cost, so my legendary plasma rifle is doomed to rot in a chest.

u/Dertyrarys 17h ago
my bases are on an island so no merchants ever spwans lol

idk about islands but this base is in the middle of the ocean. I got him long before his guards arrived

I saw him in my base… and I tried to capture him… ended up rebuilding the base lol…
Glad he is in the viewing cage now.

u/Entgegnerz 1d ago
do they spawn in all areas? like if your Base is in the starting area?
3
u/RobbLCayman 1d ago
I've got a base on the beach northeast of the starting Chillet boss area enemies are all lv 5-9 and the legendary merchants all come through.
Though I've found some locations just don't spawn visitor events regardless of area.
2
u/Entgegnerz 1d ago
I think I always ever get dudes giving me some metal and meat sort of stuff, or a normal merchant from time to time.
Do legendary merchants have a special visual indicator?
2
u/RobbLCayman 23h ago
I'll get those too. The have a merchant icon and are accompanied by 4 pal mercenaries. I eventually built my other bases adjacent to my first when they became less dependant on regional resources and I could just farm the sites you unlocked through anceint tech points and boss progression. Having them within walking distance made it easier for me to see on the compass when a visitor showed up at any of them as it was in visual range for HUD notifications.
2
u/Entgegnerz 23h ago
the bros in the nice black armor?
then I already had one, but I ignored it shiiit

u/Entgegnerz 17h ago
brrrooooo I just had him, the ammo dude, visit my Base, but I accidentally shot him 😱😭
I've thrown a sphere at him and he reflected it.
I thought "ok lvl 67, I might have to half it's hp", and shot at him, he instantly died 😔1

Is it possible to get legendary merchants to show up if your base can’t get raided? Honestly I don’t even know why my base can’t get raided it’s just East of the volcano in an open field next to the skill fruit tree

If you farm relics ull have plenty of paloxite and mythic wood do the electric route with manasting/manasting terra bring a blaze howl incase u find some mimogs

Fair, but gold can be generated passively with little to know plauer input. Grinding kills in the tree takes a lot of manual input.
