7 Days to Die Traders: All NPCs, Jobs, Perks, & More

Braving Navezgane and its undead horrors can present you with various loots. However, you can also buy items from traders if you have the money for them. So, here’s a guide on all traders in 7 Days to Die, their locations, and other pieces of relevant information.

All Traders in 7 Days to Die

As of Alpha 21, traders can spawn anywhere in Navezgane. Before this update, players can typically find a trader on the outskirts of every city and town. Now, it’s ideal to remember each NPC’s location for every randomly generated world seed. Nonetheless, the number of traders in 7 Days to Die remains the same at the time of writing. The traders you can encounter and the wares they sell are the following:

• Trader Bob: Tools and vehicles
• Trader Hugh: Weapons and ammo
• Trader Jen: Medical supplies
• Trader Joel: Armor
• Trader Rekt: Food and seeds

Note that the items sold per trader are random. So, you should check back on them when you can to inspect their wares.

Jobs From Traders

You can also take on jobs aside from buying and selling items from the traders in 7 Days to Die. Each completed job will reward you with XP and a set amount of Dukes. Also, the rewards increase in value as the job’s tier increases.

Fetch Jobs

Fetch jobs typically require you to retrieve a hidden Courier Satchel in a specified building. Opening the satchel will give you White River Supplies. Returning the supplies to the trader that gave you the job completes the job.

• Tier 1: 2,500 XP and 500 Dukes
• Tier 2: 3,750 XP and 560 Dukes
• Tier 3: 5,000 XP and 800 Dukes

• Tiers 2 to 5: 500 XP

Restore Power Jobs
