Hammy Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Just a quick question to see if people are getting the same results as myself when opening chests. Do you seem to get the exact same loot? I've had 4 gold chests that have been exactly the same so far!!! Which is very annoying 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potemkin Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Happened to me yesterday, kill 5 essex/10 npc 5th rates missions. Reward was one mission and one gold chest for each task. The reward from the (2) mission chests were both 1 reinforced masts and the reward for both golds was brit rig refit and treatise on rigging handling book. Didn't think to f11 it at the time because i hadn't heard of anyone else having this issue. Both missions were taken and redeemed in the same port.

Msk Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I have been having an issue with my last 6 bottles all had Nassau quatermasters atleast 20 in them. Most of them are just that and some running riggings or sails for Spanish/rat.I guess boarding is the only thing on the menu? I haven’t been grinding chests in the last few days. Much different loot seems to have hit in the last 2 days with a patch roll out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we just got patch notes we would have a better idea. This is the first dev team I have come across that does not release patch notes with EA or release (still beta) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammy Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 So another captains chest and ive now got 5 treatise of making saltpeter, all from these chests, is this a bug or should i expect this nearly every time from the chest??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetric de Cornusiac Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 My last gold chests have been fine, and varying. What is troublesome is the content of sealed bottle wrecks, they lost their magic entirely, compared to earlier loot setups for them. Pitty. Used to be excited about retrieving wrecks, no more.

Rare books have completely disappeared from sealed bottle wrecks. The best thing you could do is offer the bottle in shop for 100000 reals and let somebody else speculate and get excited about its content.

Out of my bottles I got expert carpenters and the materials to make 12 bovenwinds. 5 cartegenas, 8 pirate rig refits etc. My worst bottle still netted me 4 pirate rigs and 4 british rigs. My best bottle was the cartegena tar. Still they are basically always worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
