Special Traders
Traders in State of Decay 2 serve a particular purpose. Some of them are unique and appear rarely. Some of them have special conditions that must be met. All are worth checking out.
Bounty Broker
Cash Beaumont is the Bounty Broker. He has his very own icon on the map. After visiting him, you can choose up to three bounties to complete in order to unlock items. As the bounties are completed, you return to Cash Beaumont and he gives you rewards. These rewards vary, but once they are unlocked, they are available for purchase in every community you ever build. Visit him freely and often to get access to or purchase items that cannot be found anywhere else!
The Bounty Broker has 12 distinct collections of weapons, outfits, and other useful gear, each with its own theme, from pirates and soldiers to cowboys and movie monsters. This library of content cycles automatically the 1st of every month, with one pack returning while another leaves. Note that pack cycling does not require you to update the game.
Here is Cash Beaumont’s schedule:
January – Bundle Up Pack
February – Trumbull Valley Pack
March – Pawn Shop Pack
April – Plunder Pack
May – Anniversary Pack
June – World War II Pack
July – Open Range Pack
August – Critical Response Pack
September – Trifecta Pack
October – Fearsome Footage Pack
November – Go Bag Pack
December – Stay Frosty Pack
Mysterious Wandering Trader
The Mysterious Wandering Trader has some of the most unique items in the game for sale. Their inventory is second to none, but they only show up on certain days of the week. Between Thursday and Monday (based on your local time zone), you have a chance for this trader to show up and peddle their wares. You have to locate them, but once you do, they offer items that are unique or extremely rare. From facility mods to rare weapons, this trader has everything you want and then some. Make sure to check them out before they move on to a more lucrative town!
Rare Skills Trader
The Rare Skills Trader can show up any day of the week and they carry skill books that you cannot find anywhere else. They carry books for upgrading or adding skills to your survivors – some of which are exceedingly rare.
Prestige Trader
We’ve already covered how to access the Prestige Trader under Radio Commands. The Prestige Trader excerpts Prestige (hence the name) in exchange for gear unlocked via Daybreak.
