Trading might be a chance, a chance to make good gold and materials! Some users say that ' endless looting ' is better or so, but you still can with trading. Wouldn't trading make you want to go out there, get tons of famed, come to Tortuga then make a lot of dough? You could trade pretty much anything in your inventory, because like Dent's Post, it said you could trade materials. Don't you think if you can trade materials you can trade anything else in your inventory? What if you wanted to get a lvl 6 Ship Upgrade? Also you were short on oak, couldn't you trade a lot of oak for a famed? Trading is a opportunity to get more stuff in your inventory for trading bad famed or possible rare. Its not all about weapons, the Developers clearly added Potions, Ship Upgrades, Materials, Cards, etc for fun! Imagine all the possibilities of getting all that gold and other stuff. Either way, I'm good with Trading!
