The Far Seas Trading Company base in the Village of Shin has a whole set of rewards which you can purchase using tokens and gold once you have enough faction.
The rewards are sold by Koros Splinterlimb, the Far Seas Company Supply Division Merchant. He’s standing at the bar at -92,-2,103 near the Mara docks.
His items, with the exception of the stones, all require a minimum level of faction to purchase. The purchase price consists of Far Seas Trading Company Tokens (rewarded through missions) and gold. Many items also have a minimum tradeskill level to equip or use.
Mounts
| Mount | Faction | Tokens | Cost | Level | Speed | Harvest Skill |
| Appaloosa pack horse whistle | 20,000 | 5 | 3p68g64s00c | 1 | 40% | 14.3 |
| Hillrunner pack horse whistle | 30,000 | 5 | 3p68g64s00c | 1 | 48% | 24 |
| Palomino pack horse whistle | 30,000 | 5 | 3p68g64s00c | 1 | 48% | 24 |
| Pack unicorn whistle | 40,000 | 10 | 3p68g64s00c | 1 | 50% | 48 |
Jewelry Sets
Each tradeskill class has a jewelry set which can be purchased from the faction merchant.
The sets consist of a Bangle, Signet Ring and Torque. You require 20,000 faction to purchase the jewelry.
Purchase price (per piece):
5 tokens, 2g07s36c
Stats:
+6 STR +1 STA +1 AGI +1 WIS +1 INT
+175 vs heat
+5 to named tradeskill
Thus the Artificer’s Bangle gives +5 to Artificing, the Fletcher’s Bangle gives +5 to Fletching, etc.
If you equip all three pieces of the set, you receive a set bonus of insight for your class, which increases your tradeskill XP gain by 3%
These are different from the dropped jewelry in the mission instances in two respects. The dropped items of jewelry have 200 heat resist as opposed to 175 and the set of three items offers an inspiration bonus which increases to your critical success chance by 5%.
Toolbelts
There are three toolbelts for sale.
| Name | Faction | Tokens | Price | Level |
| Artisan’s Toolbelt | 20,000 | 4 | 34g88s32c | 65 |
| Crafter’s Toolbelt | 30,000 | 5 | 37g32s48c | 75 |
| Tradesman’s Toolbelt | 10,000 | 3 | 16g58s88c | 55 |
Each of these toolbelts has a matching dropped earring with which to make a set. The bonus for wearing both pieces of the set is a form of “Tools of the Trade” offering a durability increase.
Tradesman’s Toolbelt and Earring: increases durability by 5%
Artisan’s Toolbelt and Earring: increases durability by 7%
Crafter’s Toolbelt and Earring: increases durability by 9%
The toolbelts all have the same stats:
+4 str +4 sta
+5 Fishing, Foresting, Gathering, Mining, Trapping.
Thus, there is no reason to upgrade until you have the matching earrings.
