The '''Merchant''' or, '''Dealer''' in older localizations, is ~~a reoccuring~~ vocation in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series.

The '''Merchant''' or '''Dealer''' in older localizations, is an infrequently occurring vocation in the early games in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series.

Merchants have the ability to pick up additional gold after a battle~~. The amount of gold is dependent on the type of monsters which were defeated. Merchants can also~~ appraise items free of charge. In battle, merchants are only average in attack and defense, slightly better than a [[Priest]]. In ''Dragon Quest III'', this is the only vocation required to advance the plot.

Merchant is one of the prerequisites for the [[Ranger]] vocation (along with [[Monster Master]] and [[Thief]]). Though the vocation reduces most a character's stats, a merchant will gain additional gold at the end of battle as their rank increases. ~~The formula is:~~ 1 = 1/15, 2 = 1/14, 3 = 1/13, 4 = 1/12, 5 = 1/11, 6 = 1/10, 7 = 1/9, 8= 1/4
