Hi, this is my updated guide for commerci, including the PQ recently added as of the timing of this post.

If there are any additional questions/clarifications, please post here. Thank you!

Edit: There is a bug currently that makes unlocking luna costs 10 denaros, so take note.
2nd edit: there is also a bug that can cause you to be kicked out of commerci runs for no apparent reason. This is more likely to happen on longer runs, so be wary.
3rd edit: the above bugs appear to have been fixed as of this edit.
4th edit: as of the timing of this 4th edit, all other trade routes except dolce is bugged, as one of the monster wave does not register a clear. Only dolce will allow a sucessful trade, so just do that for now.

5th edit: Commerci runs are back to kicking people out randomly again, so take note.
6th edit: Moved the content of my guide off google, as some people had access to their google docs removed.
7th edit: Corrected vessel level required to hold 4 items.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p3PkSPhTHUKmy6lmDgreayA4D6LBuXYRlOQmqSuK3O4/edit?usp=sharing

Thank you to all those who helped me test commerci PQ, and the Aries staff for support!

Preface
Remember 2 things:

  1. If the NPC seems unresponsive, type @ea. Unless that npc’s quest is not coded (This guide will mention when), it should fix it
  2. Remember to leave some space in your equip and etc inventory tabs, as you will get a sweetwater hat, and some denaros initially to start your dailies.
MUST READ: WARNING FOR COMMERCI
Always ensure that you have at least 10 denaros left AFTER purchasing your sweetwater stuff/upgrading your ship/buying new areas etc. OR ELSE YOU WILL BE LOCKED OUT OF MORE TRADES, SO BE WARNED. AS OF 16TH APRIL 2021, WE DO NOT HAVE A SAFE GUARD FOR THIS, UNLIKE GMS, SO BE CAREFUL
So what is Commerci anyway?
Commerci is a daily that you can do to earn an etc item called ‘Denaros’. These Denaros let you buy items, such as Sweetwater Tattoo and Sweetwater Monocle (Currently 2nd Best in slot until you get the Magic Eyepatch and Berserked Face.)


  1. Go to Ereve(Cygnus knights area) and talk to Neinheart to begin:

  2. Talk to the empress (Note: You may get soft-lock here. Type @ea into the chat to unlock yourself. You may also have to talk to her twice to complete this quest):

  6. Talk to Maestra Fiametta again (‘Enter Trade”) to get your earnings:

Each area has a voyage requirement and denaros requirement. Check the below table for those requirements.
WARNING: AN AREA WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE A VOYAGE TO THAT AREA. SO DO NOT UNLOCK ONE UNLESS YOU ALSO HAVE THE ENERGY TO GO THERE TOO.

AreaDenaros to unlockEnergy CostVoyage unlock requirements
Dolce010N.A.
Luna0125 voyages to Dolce
Rosa10155 voyages to Luna
Herb Town20205 voyages to Rosa
Rein Habor50255 voyages to Herb Town
Lith Habor80305 voyages to Rein Habor

As you do more voyages, your ship levels up.
Your basic ship initially can only hold 2 items, until it hits level 3, then it can hold 4 items.
Once your ship hits level 10, you can upgrade it with some denaros. Only the best ship (Dreadnaught) can hold 6 items per trip.
To upgrade, open your equip window and find the ‘vessel’ button:
sL8K9nuP5l1ggeBdZAKI1OEx7yL259VnqrA0w-FR-qx9sWhBDdjtR-xtvbefCVeG8StmVE0jKY88tOiilScLEigvfuaVgNyx9zqM5dD0J4FZmugO-RZfrCe70NJPN_2OjcDlhwFf

The vessel window looks like this:
eiidX0105YZiTuTuofV6TWk-sLa2Tx6F8-rKLU70m40fWgC5uwtFzyzxNtS2v3TZbExvptq_OzWocObF2vuuhE5ggj2RzQeFAoBfAcDkYPlGgPJDz6iVclvWKm_YTdgHQbQTYsbf

Your initial ship, the Cargo Skiff, upgrade to the Sailboat at level 10, with a cost of 200 denaros. Note that you can still only hold 4 items.
Your sailboat at level 10 can upgrade to the DREADNAUGHT, with a cost of 500 denaros. This ship can hold 6 items per trade

Note that there is 2 ways to answer this question (3 for xenon players):
  1. Fastest way to level up the ship to dreadnought, so that you can use your 6 item limit per trade to earn an accessory fast for selling
  2. Fastest way to earn your Sweetwater Tattoo + Monocle, and be done with commerci.
  3. Fastest way to earn your Sweetwater Tattoo + Monocle + enough sweetwater scrolls to scroll them (for Xenon, as sweetwater accessory scrolls give +5 all stat)
None of the methods are necessarily easy, as they are tedious (unless you are just going to buy a Sweetwater Tattoo/monocle, then why are you still reading this?)

Unlock all areas until you reach Lith Habor, then keep doing Lith Habor * 3 + Dolce until your ship hits Dreadnaught.
Note that you may lack Denaros along the way, so you may need to do Dolce * 10 to earn some denaros first. I suggest earning denaros every alternate day until you know you have enough to unlock dreadnought + 30 denaros (remember the warning at the start of this guide)
Below is the Exp table for each trip.

AreaShip Exp per Voyage
Dolce180
Luna300
Rosa420
Herb Town1000
Rein Habor1300
Lith Habor1900

If you somehow had enough denaros to buy all the areas and afford the ships, it would take about 45 days to get to dreadnought from the basic ship. However, since you will still need to get denaros, My estimation brings that number to about 65 days.
Once you do get your ship to Dreadnaught, you just need to do 6-7 days of commerci to earn enough denaros to buy one accessory to sell.

Honestly, Just do dolce * 10 to earn 20 denaros per day till you get 520 denaros (you do need 20 left, as commerci is used for events), then buy both of your accessories. This should take about 26 days once your ship can hold 4 items.

The sweetwater accessory scroll is UNTRADEABLE.
So unless you are willing to buy scrolling service, you have to get all of the sweetwater scrolls yourself:
v-GRDr9GEpzvi5Mf5ZWH_0f8ic_AftdGmp88FYm_2OJSR75_jGORMDDiWFrogfgxlUNFSgqYiTXxFKBvrxeVfnuB6tfymjJhUT___kN20scGoJUpC3sD47XW6tE30prArEnNTNvm

In addition, If you are going to scroll it yourself, you need to buy Shielding Wards + Shield scrolls, or do Party Quests to earn them: https://elluel.net/index.php?threads/daily-party-quest-guide.100/

Back to Commerci, assuming you are going to grind all of the Sweetwater Tattoo + Monocle + scrolls, How many scrolls are you going to need? Using a Cumulative probability calculator, you need anywhere between 9-10 scrolls per accessory(assuming hammer and no dslots). So taking the average, you need a total of 19 Scroll for Sweetwater Accessory.

The total Denaros needed on average will come to 250 + 250 + 19 * 60 = ~1640 Denaros
The “~” is there because you may need less or more denaros than this, depending on your luck.

So, there are 4 options here:

  1. Do Dolce*10 to get your sweetwater accessories, then buy scrolling service. But of course, you need to
    1. Spend loads of mesos + provide the Shielding Ward and Shield scroll for the guy scrolling
    2. Pray that the guy doesn’t scam you and take the item for themselves
  2. Do Dolce*10 to get the scrolls instead, and buy the accessories from the auction house. To get 19 scrolls, it will take about 57 days to get enough scrolls through commerci
  3. Grind your Ship to Dreadnaught as fast as possible, and do dolce * 10 to earn 31 denaros a day (use the black pepper to earn one more Denaro on your first trip). This will take you about 45 days after getting Dreadnaught. This has the additional benefit of letting you use Commerci as a way to earn mesos later.
  4. Do Dolce*10 to get ALL of the items you need. This will take about 82 days in total, unless you get unlucky on your scrolling.
I would personally either go for option 1, 2 or 3, as:
  1. Option 1 lets you save time overall, so that you can just grind the mesos and items necessary.
  2. Option 2 still saves you a bit of time, while preventing a situation where you will get scammed.
  3. Option 3 lets you save all of the mesos + gives you a way to earn mesos from the time needed to earn your scrolls
  4. Option 4 does neither of the above well.
Note that there is an option 5, which is to buy an already finished accessory. But that would be up to you and your wallet, in game and IRL.

Commerci PQ is basically the same as regular Commerci, except:
  1. You have to do it in a party of 3
  2. There are more mobs and they are tougher, and the bosses are tougher as well
  3. The trades are MUCH FASTER than normal commerci
  4. There are 3 tries per day per character (different limit from regular commerci)
  5. You earn a fixed 4 denaros per voyage, for a total of 12.

You must have unlocked herb town in your regular Commerci (check above for requirements to unlock herb town)
Note: The mobs and bosses are MUCH tougher here than regular commerci, so I suggest gearing up a little bit. Having about 10k stat + some boss% on your weapon/familiars and your V skills unlocked should be good..

  1. Talk to Maestra Fiametta and click ‘Move to Merchant Union Trade Location’:
    YdwpA0Cgm01EvRn6pjDUxotA_YMjWu7L33EgGzGhYUcg793zhZsJVZ63YBWT0cV-54u1AOGem6GtjRdddHxghK2SncC8x0mYmVmiGBlYqqV8ls2m0ys99vvhtdz2GmX9fj1pBwxH
  2. Once you have a party of 3, and all of you have met the requirements to unlock, talk to Maestra Fiametta to proceed:
    1YVeBxXY2BkbxfeVL9XtAwJf5bA-kmcBxy2AK4yq4pwzXgBNHdnbExXeq5t2EQULwvmp2GFLRqv2IXTI7OBDHo9V-mQLu_tnIDV20qlFjLYuWlix39uN82hjprLBwI1JrrpgHE-S
  3. Kill all of the mobs and Bosses. Once you are done, Tepas will tell you that you are done, and that you can talk to him to exit:
    u77HUqejJrVD6cvsW0OqRL3BQw84CcFzZkqkF8ju3iimrqwHsjo8d8q_21a2dSayHTFUT2vFllewWlLbMafQZK1pFv4CDFRgxHAnqOuZQsTVX9R0Ez87N_EgfJpfjvXs36fFEd-G
  4. Talk to Maestra Fiametta again to get your Denaros.

Note for calculations in this guide
All of the calculations assume that you are just doing regular Commerci to earn your sweetwater accessories. Obviously, if you decide to also do the PQ, you will earn them faster. I did not factor them in, because getting people to do PQs is tough enough as it is.
BUT, if you and your homies are game to do Commerci PQ daily, then go for it.


ADDITIONAL FAQ
  1. Is Commerci character locked or account locked?
    Character locked, which means you can do Commerci on multiple characters if you prefer

  2. Is there a minimum range/stat for regular Commerci?
    Not exactly. If you can comfortably hit lvl 200 with pinnacle gear, you can do regular Commerci

  3. Is there a minimum range/stat for Commerci PQ?
    I would say about 10k stat and having some boss damage% + V skills would suffice.

  4. How do I get more energy for more voyages?
    Energy recharges on daily reset. You can type @check in game to see when daily reset happens

  5. How do I see more of the map to see more areas?:
    Click this arrow on the map
