Hunger Traders and NPCs

The Chateau is Hunger's hub between raids, and its NPCs are where you buy gear and learn a trade. 22 traders run shops in the playtest, from Gunsmiths and Metallurgists selling weapons to Cooks, Physicians and Outfitters. Piro the merchant has the widest stock, at 38 items. Below are the 9 professions you can learn, then every trader with their full stock; search for an item to see who sells it, or filter by trade. A shop only shows part of its stock at a time, so the lists here are everything a trader can offer. Weapon damage is in the Hunger weapons list, and everything else in the item database.
