Merchant is a job from the backpackers group that specializes in trading.

Merchants have many benefits for moving and trading items, such as cheaper storage fees and the ability to transfer items from one storage to another storage. They have bonuses built around increasing their weight and Capacity so they can carry more items. They do not need a Golem to open a shop since they can set up their own shop and they can keep the shop open even while moving or in battle. They can even buy cheaper and sell higher from NPCs.

In battle, Merchants have many useful tricks, such as buffs and debuffs. These skills can increase the attack power of their party, increase their own defense, or weaken enemies so they are more vulnerable against magical attacks.
