Wandering Trader: Difference between revisions

The trading system is a [[gameplay]] mechanic that allows [[player]]s to buy [[item]]sand withsell [[emeralditem]]s, but from a wandering trader this time.

Pressing the {{control|use}} control on the wandering trader allows a player to view the itemsdifferent offeredtrade for saleoffers, similar to a villager. Different offers are visible in a list, and clicking on one of the offers moves the corresponding items to the slots above the player's [[inventory]]. All offers involve [[emerald]]s as a currency.

Wandering traders typically sell items generated in the world or otherwise related to nature, such as [[plant]]s, [[dye]]s, and [[buckets of fish]]. They can also trade less common items, such as [[coral block]]s, [[blue ice]], or [[nautilus shell]]s. Overall, trades offered by wandering traders offer a way to obtain biome-specific materials, without having to travel to the specific biomes. They will also buy a select few items from the player, giving emeralds in return.

After the [[player]] purchasesuses the same itemtrade several times, the wandering trader locks the trade, but unlike villagers, never unlocks the trade. The wandering trader can appear again around the player with new trades after a while.

Unlike [[villager]]s, wandering traders only sell [[item]]s, they do not buy items. Wandering traders do not have an experience bar and do not modify their offers or prices based on changing demand. This (the trade items or prices) can be changed by the player by editing the corresponding NBT data flag through the use of the {{cmd|data}}{{only|je|short=1}} command.

The wandering trader cannot work at a job site block and restock, even when summoned with a villager profession or other villager data.
