The '''Bazaar''' is a bustling market where most vendors of Haven can be found.

−
== Description ==
+
The '''Bazaar''' is the western district of [[Haven]]. It consists of a market split into two levels and is the location of many important [[vendor]]s.
  
−
The [[Bazaar]] allows access to almost all of the vendors in Haven, as well as to ample supplies and resources for [[crafting]].

The shops in the Bazaar are brightly decorated. Strangers display their wares in the open, and their specialities are indicated both by the banners on their shop fronts and the colourful symbols painted on their wooden masks. Merchants sell from stalls cobbled together from flotsam and jetsam - this can include items such as rich rugs to a knight's own drop-pod!

−
Punch and Vise share a grimy workshop on the lower level of the Bazaar, filled with mysterious devices and chemicals that most knights are careful not to ask about. Punch's services as a Variant Smith can give an adventurous knight that extra edge they're looking for - if they're lucky! Vise, on the other hand, looks to help out those knights who are unhappy with their equipment or who just feel it's time to move on to something different. His unbinding expertise means knights can pass their gear on to another, or sell it at the Auction House.

Ricasso and Quillion, found next to the eastern exit, are weapons merchants who can help kit up a knight needing stronger offence in their loadout. For a duo dealing in guns, bombs and swords, they're quite a placid pair.

Notes

The shops in the Bazaar are brightly decorated. Vendor specialties are indicated both by the banners on their shop fronts and colorful symbols painted on their masks. Merchants sell from stalls cobbled together from flotsam and jetsam - this can include items like the knight's own crash pod, in Bechamel's case.

The topic of this article or section is subject to personal opinion, and does not represent any one absolute truth. If you disagree, discuss your concerns on the the talk page before editing.: The presence of vendors in this area enriches the game, but actual exchanges with them are usually not frugal. The player will likely find that investing time in obtaining recipes and crafting their own items from components they find in the clockworks yields more reward for less crown expense, especially considering the chance to craft UVs. Additionally, vendors will often buy materials and other items for much lower than another player might. Check the Auction House for listings to see how you can best profit from your loot. That being said, a few important, otherwise mostly exclusive items are available from these vendors, like the trinkets from Brinks, the personal colors from Vatel, and a few other specialties.
