Nearly every item acquired in NieR: Automata can be sold to vendors for credits. While selling machine parts provides a simple income stream, many items serve additional purposes, and selling them might hinder your progress.

Some items fetch significantly higher prices than others, making selling less lucrative in certain cases. This guide outlines the most profitable items to sell and how best to utilize your earnings.

Best Items To Sell in NieR: Automata

The most reliable indicator of an item's sellable value is the in-game description: "Can be exchanged for money." While all items are technically sellable, this designation signifies not only a high sale price but also a lack of any other use. Examples of items ideal for selling include:

• Fish and junk acquired through fishing.
• Jewelry
• Masks
• Animal meat

Many other items, while seemingly inconsequential, function as upgrade components for weapons and pods. Given the game's vast array of weapons, prioritizing upgrades for your preferred arsenal is crucial, preventing the need for resource farming later.

Upgrade Weapons & Pod Weapon and pod upgrades are relatively inexpensive, but acquiring the necessary resources may prove time-consuming. Prioritizing upgrades streamlines build optimization.
