Common Trade Routes

Article outdated
This article needs to be updated to reflect the changes introduced with the latest version of the Discovery mod.

These prices are derived from the commodities list of proven money making trade routes. Be advised that these do not take transportation time or NPC difficulty into consideration. If you are in a smaller ship you may want to stick to the inner systems. It is up to you to determine the most efficient route, each person will argue that one route is the best, but to each their own. (version 4.84, does not apply to 4.85)
