Tips

It's all delivery, no hunting, but it takes two round trips. Do it when you're passing between Henesys and Perion anyway.
Return Scrolls and Teleport Rocks don't work inside the Free Market Entrance, so walk out through the portal.
The 20 Blue Potions would cost 4,400 mesos in NPC shops (220 each).

Still being confirmed

The exact spots of the Free Market portals in Henesys and Perion aren't confirmed yet.
Nobody has confirmed whether leaving the Free Market always takes you back to the town you came in from.
