  1. ~Warlord's Beginner's Guide to Trading~


    This guide is for all the new and returning players of KaW. This will help with things such as creating charms and trading basics to bring you up to speed on the modern KaW.

    Charms


    Creating charms is a very simple process that varies depending on the device you use.

    [​IMG]

    For both devices, you’ll need to go to the marketplace, then the mage, and then:


    Android: Swipe left near the top of the screen where it describes what the mage is.

    Apple: Swipe left -or- right anywhere on the screen.


    [​IMG]

    Now you have reached the transmuting screen. You can now see all of your non-equipped pieces of equipment. You can click on any one of them and a blue circle will appear. Hold the circle down to transmute the equipment. However, once you have transmuted a piece of equipment, you will not be able to equip it as equipment.

    ~As a tip: make sure your equipment is fully enchanted to its max level. It will make the charm more valuable and powerful.

    Trading


    Trading has become a very popular and important feature in modern KaW. Knowing the basics is very important. People usually trade charms for furniture, -or- charms for charms, but some will trade rewards for charms (-or- charms for rewards), as well as trading furniture for furniture. We're gonna focus on buying furniture with charms.

    To begin with, you'll need to be friends with whoever you plan to trade with. Open the private message screen (PM) and look to the left of your text box: you'll see two arrows. Select the arrows to get into the trading area. From there you can trade any item listed. There are different tabs to select your specific items, whether that would be: charms, rewards, furniture, boxes, -or- all.

    [​IMG]

    Next, you should already know what combined stats (CS) are, and how to find it on your account. We'll be doing the same thing with charms. When trading, a good way to find the CS of charms is to use an alt or friend. When you start the trade with an alt (-or- friend), include your charms, it will then tell you the CS once you send it. Then you can cancel the trade after figuring out the CS. You can also see the stats of a specific charm if you press and hold down on it. You can quickly add these together to find the total. Once you have the desired CS, send those charms to the person you are trading with in order to buy the piece of furniture you want.

    Pricing


    Provided below is a rough outline of the price of furniture in charms CS. The price of furniture, chests, and charms fluctuate just like any other real-world market. This is its own economy so there are various ups and downs. The price is determined by a number of factors including rarity, level, and desirability.

    NOTE: All Prices are for lvl 1 furniture
    *THESE PRICES ARE HEAVILY OUTDATED, PLEASE ASK A KNOWN TRADER -or- WC*


    Workshop (Left Room):
    Left Room Top Left (Shield): 30-70 Mil
    Left Room Middle Left (Scroll): 30-70 Mil
    Left Room Bottom Left (Helmet): 50-90 Mil
    Left Room Bottom Right (Armor): 100-250 Mil
    Left Room Top Right (Weapon): 200-350 Mil

    Throne Room (Middle Room):
    Thrones: 300-450 Mil
    Throne Sides: 10-20 Mil
    Carpets: 20-50 Mil
    Stairs (Dais): 60-100 Mil
    Pillars: 60-100 Mil

    Chamber Room (Right Room):
    Chandelier: 60-100 Mil
    Pet Food: 30-40 Mil
    Pets: 700 Mil-1.3 Bil (Cows/manticore can go for 350-500 Mil usually)

    Misc.:
    Walls/Floors/Banners: 4-15 Mil
    Sets: 1.5-5 Bil
    Royals: 500 k-5 Mil
    Seals: 150-300 Mil
    Circle Pieces(100): 100-150 Mil
    Top 10 Pet: 2bil-5bil

    Note: Cows and manticores are less expensive because awhile back the Devs gave everyone a manticore, and eventually a cow. Therefore the number of manticores and cows brought the price down exponentially. As they are still extremely common, the price has fluctuated a little and gone up.

    Royals


    You can only trade royal chests. These are the chests that require a royal chest key to open. The prices on these fluctuate quite a bit. For a current event box, the price will be around 5 Mil at the beginning of an event, and it will soon depreciate as the event moves on. At the end of the event, you should see them going for 500k. Most old royals will go anywhere between 500k and 2 Mil. It will mostly depend on the seller.

    Hopefully, this price guide will keep you from getting scammed. Keep in mind that these are general prices, and there will be exceptions to these. Don't forget, it's trading, you may be able to haggle a better deal out of someone.

    Upgrading and Dismantling



    [​IMG]

    When you upgrade (ug) furniture, you'll need to dismantle a piece in the same slot to get ug material. Each ug level requires a certain amount of dismantled furniture to do so. Here is a list of the amount of furnishings needed to upgrade:

    Level 1=1
    Level 2=2
    Level 3=4
    Level 4=8
    Level 5=14
    Level 6=22
    Level 7=32
    Level 8=44
    Level 9=58
    Level 10=74
    Level 11=92
    Level 12=112
    Level 13=134
    Level 14=158
    Level 15=184
    Level 16=212
    Level 17=242
    Level 18=274
    Level 19=308
    Level 20=344


    Once a piece is upgraded, you can't degrade it.

    There are some furniture pieces you shouldn't dismantle though. For example: Bone Set, Murkfrost Set, Autumnal Set. The reason you don't want to dismantle these pieces is because they are rare -or- extremely sought after. They can sell for more than the usual prices. These pieces are exceptions and will yield better profits if you sell them. If you're ever unsure about which items to dismantle -or- not to, feel free to ask around. A trusted trader or even wc can help you.
