PREVENT VAGRANTS FROM INITIATING TRADE REQUESTS.

[austere frigate]

Remove the ability of a vagrant to initiate trade request. (can still receive a trade request from someone who has completed the 1st Job Change).
This change will prevent players from trading an item/gears/equipment to a wrong player.
A character should be only allowed to initiate a trade once they have completed the 1st Job Change.

Unfortunately this defeats the purpose of the feature. Imagine a group of new players starting the game for the first time and not being able to help each other out. This will be the case if/when FWC starts again. I understand your concern, but there are settings to help prevent this behavior if you’re getting spammed with vagrant trades. The newer feature that displays/confirms the items being traded can also help, it’s just about paying more attention to the name/level of the player.

How about a warning hint when a vagrant trades you and you are not a vagrant

leveling 1-15 in fwc takes 15 maybe 30mins. anything they loot at time they can just drop on the ground for someone else to pick up.
yes, you can uncheck trade requests, but that just makes legit trades harder to initiate. as for the name/level display on the trade window, it doesn't seem to be as visible when you're playing on a phone, especially with longer igns

This is good feedback. Could be a design flaw that needs to upgrade; that could prevent a known issue while keeping the feature intended as is. There’s a lot of “risk” when changing or implementing hard features, which is why it’s best to understand the problem to its fullest and try resolving or mitigating the issue in the least impactful way to player experience and gameplay.

Perhaps there should be be another option "Allow trades only with people on your friends list"

[quartz pagoda]

Oh that’s a good option to have.

If I'm not wrong you need to be lvl 30 at least to trade on FWC but that's not applicable on regular servers

[austere frigate]

This is also a good suggestions to avoid those random/doppelgangers who is requesting to trade

[ember plover]

its level 30 to trade prems, you can still trade prior to that

[jovial gust]

That's the trick, only traded prems on fwc. But on regular you can trade prems from lvl1
