I found an ancient post that merchants inventory was limited to 80. Is this still the case? Reason I ask is I have finally broken down the ranger class by slot and in the process of filling merchants. Filtering out melee weapons yielded over 2k.

Running sql

SELECT merchantid,COUNT(merchantid) as c from merchantlist GROUP BY merchantid

This returns many merchants with >80 items. All are <100 however...

The more items in a merchants inventory the more memory it uses when a player opens the inventory.

Back in S2K we attempted to have a merchant have an ungodly amount of items and it would crash the zone and ocasionaly the server.

It actualy uses less recorces to have more merchents with less items then less merchants with more items.

Roger that. Thanks for the info. Right now I'm only using the bazaar for starter gear and planning to spread around the others.
