Background:
Playing factions as a main source of farming, I have nightfall but I barely play it

Questions
1. So I have an assasin and I have a pretty good build for farming, however I am planning on farming in Wajjun Bazaar. Here is the question, does the location of where I am farming matter on what kind of drops I will get?

2. So, I got some drops from monsters and I am trying to sell some stuff. What are the red flags that should jump out of me when I shouldn't be selling gold and blue items to the merchant? Because, I know that if the higher the requirements are the chances are that they are not going to sell.

3. Is there any specific link that you can direct me towards to learn more about Location, Farming and selling?

To a degree, yes. In Kaineng city you will get many of the canthan weapon skins, but certain skins like jade swords or gothic shields will only drop in Luxon or Kurzick areas respectively. Other than that, higher level foes=better loot is the only rule. Also, look at the farming link above; not sure why you'd want to farm Waijun bazaar.

Well, because you're farming Factions, the non changeable mods on the weapons are going to matter more than the requirement. It's pretty easy to sell high req weapon as long as "inscription"-like mod is decent and you don't ask for that much money, because there's always someone looking for a cheap, max weapon. Don't expect more than a couple platinum, but that's better than 200-300g from the merchant. Also, it's much easier to use the auction on guru than to spam districts when trying to sell multiple items. If you're crazy, you can even try determining the mods before identifying a cheap gold to see if its good or not (allows you to sell crap as unidentified golds for like a platinum a piece).
