57 Skyrim Mods We Want for PS4 & Xbox One

Trade and Barter

If you've played Skyrim you know that trading in the game is a bit, well, boring. Well, this mod overhauls the entire system and breathes new life into the game's trading and bartering mechanics. 

Trade and Barter is a substantial mod that gives you a ton of control over the trading systems in the game. You can make some small changes or you can completely overhaul how everything works. It's up to you. 

The changelog for this mod is enormous but here are a few highlights:

Status: Use your status as Thane or Guild Leader to your advantage and get better prices when dealing with another member of your faction.

Relationship: All those silly little fetch quests and other tasks that people ask you to do? Now doing favors for merchants and winning their friendship actually has some impact and can have long-lasting benefits for you.

Race: Racism is ugly, but it's also an unfortunate fact of life in Tamriel. Most races have some inherent bias against one or more other races.

Location: Prices are lower in smaller towns, but merchants also can't afford to pay you top septim for your goods. Cities are expensive, but there is more money to be made there. Merchants in cities charge higher prices when selling their wares, but they are also willing to pay more for premium goods in order to make sure that their shops stay well-stocked. The five major cities can now have their buying and selling rates set individually to reflect their size, wealth, access to supply and shipping routes, or status as a trading center.

Etiquette: Approach a merchant with raised fists, hide your identity behind a hood or helmet, or forget to dress yourself, and you may well discover that the prices you receive reflect the impression you're sending to others. Once again, if the merchant is a friend, they will forgive your quirks and ignore these factors.
