Sell Held and Sell Inventory include different items
Speak to Julian at the wooden stall in Songkeeper’s Grove. The reviewed dialogue offers Sell Held for the creature currently held, and Sell Inventory for the creatures in your pack. Inspect the quoted selection and amount, then choose Deal! to confirm or Never mind… to cancel. [source]
Check quest items before selling a batch
Review your active requests first. Toastbud, Gloombell and Faebud have source-reported quest connections. If a bulk sale includes a creature you need, cancel and check the available selection controls instead of assuming it will be retained.
Confirm the change in your Chimes balance
After accepting the quote, compare the music-note balance with the previous amount. For an arithmetic example, a balance of 200 plus an accepted quote of 62 becomes 262. This example illustrates addition; it is not a fixed price for any creature.
Calculate the next instrument budget
| Target | Example balance | Still needed |
|---|---|---|
| Tamer’s Guitar: 100 | 60 | 40 |
| Adventurer’s Tambourine: 750 | 200 | 550 |
| Violin of Pilgrimage: 4,500 | 1,000 | 3,500 |
Open the Chimes calculator with your actual balance and current shop price. Compare the instrument attributes before deciding which upgrade is useful.
Good questions, clear answers.
Is the quoted amount a permanent species price?
No. A quote applies to the offered selection at that moment. Do not turn one sale into a universal value table.
How many catches will earn the remaining amount?
This calculator does not predict earnings per catch or per hour. Update the balance after actual sales instead.
