THE BAZAAR GET THE GAME

Field guide to The Bazaar, the Tempo game. Not the restaurant, the magazine, or Cafe Bazaar.

Skills

I am not reprinting 523 skill cards. The useful map is which trainer belongs to which hero, because that is how you actually buy a skill in a run.

Trainer per hero

Each of these is a Diamond trainer, an 8-gold reroll, and a single choice. Vanessa buys from Old Zane. Pygmalien buys from Mr. Tuskari. Dooley buys from Cymon. Mak buys from Zosima, whose pool is 27 Mak skills. Stelle buys from Uncle Odi. Jules buys from Nonna. Karnok buys from Kelsa. The Dragons buy from Mama Bear. That pairing is the trainer list on BazaarDB for patch 20.1. I do not have a second site confirming every pool size, so only Zosima's 27 is stated as a count.

Skills are not items. They do not take a board square. Zosima's page is the long version of the Mak row. A full skill browser already exists on BazaarDB, and copying it here would go stale on the next hotfix.

Where a skill comes from

Trainers are the reliable shop. Level-up rewards and some monsters, such as Banannibal's Skill Voucher, are the other doors the card text mentions. I do not have drop rates for those vouchers, so the monster table's drop names are the limit of what I will say.

Questions

Where do I buy Vanessa skills?

Old Zane. He is the Vanessa trainer, 8 gold to reroll, pick one.

Is there a skill tier list?

Not from Tempo. Third-party boards disagree by patch. I will not publish a ranked skill list without a method and a date.
