Why don't I find a site on Internet that explains what items are for?

I didn't know what to think, so I searched and searched. I got the thing with the retainers doing the shitty jobs, but the 2 I had was busy selling stuff on the market. I got 1 new one and now have one selling stuff and 2 mining. I'll probably get 2 more to do skinning.

Selling stuff doesn't supercede going on ventures. Both can be done at the same time. Even if they're on a venture, their listings on the market still are there and accessible. I would suggest if you're going to be into crafting to have at least one botanist, one miner, and one hunter retainer. Fishing retainers are kinda useless except for random items on the waterside explorations.
