Seven Seas

Overview

The Seven Seas is the setting of the pirate haven and its ships. There are many regions beyond the pirate haven that begin in the fog of war until discovered by sending ships to their Discovery Points. Each region has its own quest line aligned with the Principle Paths and some side quests and minor events. When no ship is in a region for a while, the fog of war takes over again, and a ship needs to be sent back to its Discovery Point to reveal the region again.

Events and Embarking

Embarking on an event

The events in each region appear at various locations, and a ship must be built, crewed, and sent to embark on each event. The ship will sail across the Seven Seas to the event in real time, typically a few minutes. During this time, plans for other ships can be made, the pirate haven can be managed, or the simulation speed can be increased to make the trip go by faster.

Only one ship can embark on an event at once. Assigning a second ship to an event will unassign the other. An unassigned ship will stop where it is in the world and await new orders.

A decision is required

When the assigned ship arrives at the event, the captain will say something, and the ship will stop (or follow the moving event). Entering the event either offers a decision or objectives to complete. While making the decision or completing event objectives, everything else is paused.

Regional events

Events in a region might be any of the following:

• Crown port
• Drifting castaways
• Friendly port
• Jetsam
• Merchant ship or Treasure Fleet
• Shipwreck
• Smuggling run
• an event belonging to the region quest line
• a Principle Path quest

Friendly Port

"A friendly fisherman port. We can safely resupply here."

Completing the region's quest line will convert one of the quest locations into a Friendly Port. Entering the friendly port will allow the ship to be repaired, re-crewed, and resupplied without returning to the pirate haven in exchange for Coin and resources from the island. (No transfer of resources is required; purchase is instant.) All cargo stays aboard the ship.

The Friendly Port is a way to avoid returning to the pier and losing accumulated Sea Legs buffs from the special Seafaring building Shrine of the Sea.
