If you barter for a while then you find what they done in bartering is nothing give you more crow coins if your going for that and some new low level mats but for the people that barter a good long time it nothing. Does not speed it up does not give more silver so really nothing and does not take care of sailing eather.

It's basically their push to get people sailing faster, even though there's no end game content (whether bartering for money or farming sea monsters for money).

Sea content is really bad for a long time. They made progression path from start to "ocean end game" very easy and fast. Then you end up on end game with nothing more to do/progress (just nol and minmaxing sailors for 0.1% speed more), shit money/items from sea monsters (and basically 2 spots), shit money from barter (and daily limited wtf) and probably worst interface in this game (wtf PA, fix sailors menu and give as presets finally).

Thank you devs for the best sea update for the last 5 years,  i already sold all my useless ships. 

SELL AND NEVER BACK IN THE SEA.
