The Traveling Merchant is one of the more important NPCs that you will come across during your time in Roblox Dig. They will appear on the map every now and then and will offer to sell you some of the rarest charms and the best shovels in the game.
So, if you are looking to make the most of the Traveling Merchant in this Roblox game, then the guide below will help you out.
How does the Traveling Merchant work in Dig Roblox?
As mentioned, the Traveling Merchant is an NPC that appears every now and then to sell you incredibly rare items. The selection they have rotates, so what you are looking for may not be instantly available in the shop.
Moreover, the valuables that the NPC sells are pretty expensive, and you will need to grind the game a lot to stock up on enough cash if you are looking to buy something like the Prismatic Shovel or the Cauldron hat.
So if you have the money for an item that the merchant sells, keep visiting them every time they appear. Missing out on one Merchant appearance will force you to wait for the next rotation.
How to find and locate the Traveling Merchant in Roblox Dig
The Traveling Merchant will spawn every 15 minutes on your server in Dig, and they will also change their location every 10 minutes, rotating between multiple points of interest, which include Verdant Valr, Rooftop Woodlands, Fox Town, and more.
When the merchant appears and moves, you will get a server-wide notification which reads: “The Traveling Merchant has moved to Landmark (POI name).” Once that happens, you will then get a “Traveling Merchant” tag on the map, which will let you pinpoint their new location.
You usually find the merchant near central landmarks of towns. So these will basically include banks, fountains, and other PoIs. Make sure you are making the most of your vehicle to be able to catch up to the merchant in time.

How to make the most of the Traveling Merchant in Roblox Dig
Here are a few tips and tricks that you should keep in mind if you are looking to make the most of the Traveling Merchant in Dig Roblox:
1) Always keep track of where the merchant is
If you have the required amount of money to buy an expensive tool from the Traveling Merchant, then make sure to always be aware of where the merchant is. Keep an eye out for the server notification of their arrival and when they are moving onto the next point of interest.
Once he does move, look for the “Traveling Merchant” tag to pinpoint their actual location.
2) Visit the merchant often
As the merchant has a rotating shop, you are likely not going to find the item that you are looking for right away. So, make sure to visit the NPC often, and you will eventually find the item that you are looking for.
3) Use the best Shovels, Enchantments, and Totems to farm money
The best Shovels and the Enchantments that complement them will let you have a much easier time farming money in the game. Additionally, you can make your farming run even more efficient by using Totems and then digging away while standing in their AoE. As you will be able to stack up to 3 Totem effects in one area, you will be able to use three different buffs to make the most of your money farming.
