Chacapo's Trader Breed Guide!
Updated Nanomage Section/Added in RE and some more weapon skills because some traders are finding it viable to dual wield with Dreadloch Rapier/et.!
I know there's the huge guide on many things that's rooted, but I find it lacked explaining of the Breeds/it is a bit out of date..
What breed should I use? - A question asked by many, and hope you find this thread useful enough to help you decide which breed you should pick!

Armor:
Solitus can twink on any of the Alien Armors (ql 300) by Level 220 and keep them out of OE with very little/no problems. Solitus is very open with abilities, therefor able to get on any armor that would be suitable for a trader (by 220)
Weapons:
No problem here for Solitus or any of the other breeds, but there is an atrox only shotgun, the Diamondine Kick Pistol, but can be upgraded for a 210+ only version usable by all breeds
PvP:
In my opinion, great breed for PvP Traders at really any level, endgame you get the heal perks, the good hp, and ability to get on symbiants that some other breeds would not be able to twink on. Also your evades are good, and will have no problems getting on Nano Programs.
PvM:
Same as I think above, great breed at all levels, Solitus has the health, rounded abilities, evades, and nanoskills you need to do everything from solo'ing, to twinking on a good drain at low level. The well-roundedness of Solitus makes it a very viable choice for the Trader Profession at all levels.
And this ends my Portion of the Solitus Breed Guide!
