Draymoor Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Is it just me or have sealed bottles drop rate been reduced? I haven't fished one up since the the economy patch and I sail a lot in OW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin hinted indirectly that capital zone fishing (proximity to any port?) isn't effective but other than that I think you could be anywhere. The "capital zone" is tiny. With the wind you sail out of the capital zone or the useless "reinforcement zone" in seconds after leaving port. I've recently got sealed bottles within sight of my nation's ports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previous 2, I managed to get in my TLynx (dunno if just luck or, by the new goods weights). One of them was good, other one just regular stuff. Certainly got sold by newbie who does not know what to do with a bottle he fished... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing subject a little: I didn't tried to go for the random fleet shipwrecks since the patch. Do you know if now is possible to get the loot with small ships like T brig or T Lynx? Cuz they changed the weight from goods, maybe it is possible to get the loot with fast small ships? Could be interesting...As now, ppl don't interested too much for that events, maybe new opportunities could be present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

British running rigging, greenheart, crooked, french cloth... stuff like that in "abundance". Testing bottle loot is a slow process but it seems Grietje, copper and carta are taken out of bottles. nope, I recently found one with carta and copper ingots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
