You might think that buying traders in X4 Foundations will completely automize the trading process, but that is not exactly true. Before your trader will upgrade to level 3, you’ll need to make use of the ‘Distribute Wares” option, which is a little more complicated than it seems.
What is Distribute Wares in X4 Foundations
Distribute Wares is an order you can give to your traders from the “behaviors” submenu. It will tell your trader to buy a set amount of one particular product from the space station of your choosing and sell it where they will get the best price.
How to Distribute Wares in X4 Foundations
Once you’ll select the “Distribute Wares” behavior, you can choose what type of wares will your trader transport. When you’re starting out, it’s best not to exclude any. Now, make sure you have your trader selected and press the right mouse button on the station you want to buy goods from. Select how many you need and press “confirm” for your trader to start distributing wares.
Distributing Wares vs Autotrading
3-star traders can do trading automatically. When this behavior is chosen, you won’t need to tell them what they need to buy. But, this system is not perfect and it can sometimes cause you to lose profit, so if you have the time, distributing wares manually might be a better option.
The Frozen Throne was one of the RTS games I previously played, and I recall playing the campaign and going up against the undead only to discover that you actually sided with the undead in the end. Given the discussion of the undead, some of you may be familiar with necromancy in Spellforce. If you’re lacking the fourth ingredient and are unsure of how to obtain it, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered.
The 4th Ingredient Slot For Necromancy
It is important to note that you may complete all Necromancy concoctions, even Tier 3 units, with just the initial three ingredients. To make some of the more challenging undead, you will undoubtedly require higher quality ingredients.
However, if you have advanced in the game sufficiently to obtain the more valuable resources, you do not need the fourth ingredient.
Open your Grimoire to see the location of the fourth ingredient for necromancy. When you’re in the Grimoire, use the tabs at the bottom of the screen to go to the Necromancy page; the icon is a malevolent hand emerging from the ground.
There are a number of challenges there, and each one provides a prize. The first three tests concern spells. After successfully completing the first three tasks, you receive the Summon Necromancer Minions, Soul Cage, and Soul Catcher.
But the Soul Well, a unique room, can only be accessed by completing the final task. You will receive new prizes as you unlock this room and add it to your tower, such as weekly souls, an extra army stack space, and the option to utilize a fourth ingredient when summoning undead creatures using necromancy.
