The first weekend following the opening of the Raven 2 Battle World has passed. The ancient citadel took place over the third weekend of August, and the upcoming fourth weekend will host the scramble. Then, on September 2, the Battle World will close, followed by a total realm server transfer. In other words, time is running out for users who migrated to the Battle World to reap any benefits. Today, we have briefly rounded up popular listings that sell well on the marketplace and efficient trading methods for the remaining period. Farm the recommended listings and rake in as much Crystal as you can.

Q. How do we check which items are popular on the Battle World marketplace?
A. First of all, take a look at the listed items and their unit selling prices.

Through its August developer livestream, Raven 2 revealed that 'many users participated during the first Battle World in hopes of making a profit on the marketplace.' True to that, a diverse array of items has been registered on the marketplace in this Battle World.

Let's dive into how to sell items easily on the marketplace. The very first things to check are the listings, unit selling prices, and recent transaction prices. If you are wondering whether an item in your possession will actually sell, head over to the sales tab and click on the item. If information is displayed under the recent transaction price, it means trades have indeed taken place during the Battle World period. Given that the Battle World opened not too long ago, this metric is vital. It implies the items sold within that remarkably brief window.

The recent transaction price and the number of completed trades as of August 27 serve as indicators of how heavily items were traded during the nine days since the Battle World opened. This volume represents demand, while the number of active listings represents current supply. When registering items in Raven 2, your odds of a successful trade are higher if you sell items where the completed trade count outpaces the active listing count. If you are debating farming unowned items to put up as listings, start by searching the purchase tab for items with a high volume of listings. From there, simply filter out what you are capable of farming yourself.

With not much time left on the clock, prioritize 'farming heavily and selling quickly before the Battle World wraps up.' The image outlines some miscellaneous items with 15 or more listings registered on the Battle World marketplace as of August 27. Notably, enhancement stones, wood, fragmented crystals, gold bars, and ancient kingdom invitations saw heavy trading. Keep in mind that Abyss Time Recharge Stones also racked up 31 listings.

Q. Enhancement stones seem to sell like hotcakes, so I should sell those.
A. Items traded in bundles require a bit of thought.

However, items sold in bulk bundles, such as enhancement stones, demand careful consideration. Checked via the previous method, they might look like they sell cheaply and in massive volumes. Yet, in Raven 2, the market rates for such items are typically established based on bundles numbering in the hundreds or thousands. This is precisely why individual prices appear so low in the sales tab.

Let's take a frequent scenario as an example. On standard servers, Ancient Kingdom Invitations used to sell for 10 Crystals per 1,000 units. That brings the market rate of a single Ancient Kingdom Invitation down to 0.01 Crystals. Naturally, you cannot sell them at that price. That is because the minimum amount you can set when registering a listing on the marketplace is 10 Crystals. To hit that minimum threshold, you need to farm in bulk and sell a large quantity at once. Fortunately, the vibe in the Battle World is that they trade a bit higher, but it pays to understand the trading structure.

Now, let's pivot our gaze back to the Raven 2 Battle World. Among popular items, enhancement stones, fragmented crystals, shards of the abyss bloodstone, fragments of malice, and teramond are traded via bundle sales. While high demand is fantastic, gathering enough listings to match the individual item market rate and the minimum unit price is crucial. Once you hit the mark, sell them; if you find yourself short on items, pour your time into farming or pivot to farming other items that sell faster.

When setting the total selling price, matching the current lowest unit price is the recommended route. That is because the Raven 2 marketplace displays cheaper items closer to the top. The math is simple. Set the sales quantity on the registration page and input the total selling price. The system will figure out the unit selling price for you. Just align this with the current lowest unit price. Of course, undercutting other users is also a solid strategy.

Q. So, does that mean items with low recent trade counts are not worth listing at all?
A. Fail to sell, still go. You have nothing to lose by putting them up.

We have briefly checked out the items actively trading in the Raven 2 Battle World alongside sales methods. The core takeaway is to sell items with high recent trade counts. So, does that mean items failing to notch dozens or hundreds of sales aren't even worth registering? The answer is 'just register them and see.' If they sell, brilliant; if they don't, you simply reclaim them. You do pay a registration fee in gold amounting to 10 times the total selling price you set, but it is hardly enough to break the bank. That goes double for cheaply traded miscellaneous goods or enhancement stones.

Here, you proceed after checking the completed trade count in the sales registration tab. The mere fact that a completed trade count has been tallied means there was actual demand for the item. If active listings fall short of that figure, it can be interpreted as supply lagging behind demand or the item losing its steam. Wondering what to do if you register it and find out it is the latter? As mentioned earlier, you won't take a loss, so you can ease your worries. Just keep in mind that the marketplace caps registrations at 30 items, and the Battle World runs until the maintenance on September 2.
