Voyage stages

Upon beginning the voyage, each player in the crew will be given a Wayfinder of Legends in their Quest Radial which will begin to point to the location of the first buried treasure chest. There are three chests to find and dig up in total.

The Wayfinder's needle will be imprecise at a distance, pointing vaguely in the correct direction, then become more accurate as the destination is approached. The exact dig spot is found when the needle spins around uncontrollably.

Once the treasure chest is dug up, the Wayfinder of Legends will point to the next buried chest on a different island in the same region . The voyage ends when all buried chests have been dug up.

A single voyage guarantees three buried treasure chests from the following list:

• Chest of a Thousand Grogs
• Chest of Sorrow
• Chest of Rage
• Chest of Boundless Sorrow
• Chest of Legends (Rare chance to find on final dig)
• If a Chest of Legends is dug up as one of the buried treasures, the voyage will not complete and the Wayfinder of Legends will continue to point to the location where that chest was buried.

Sea Of Thieves | A Legendary Search for Cursed Treasure Voyage Guide

Cursed Chests are known to bring all sorts of calamities and mild inconveniences to the sailor who wishes to disturb their slumber. Sailing the high seas with one on board can be daunting enough, but who’s to say you can’t challenge Neptune himself and have all four at the same time?

To begin, go to Voyages and choose A Legendary Search for Cursed Treasure , it’s a voyage with multiple chapters that are only made available to Pirate Legends . During this voyage, you’ll be using an enchanted compass called the Wayfinder of Legends to locate the accursed chests, each of these are buried on nearby islands so a little bit of hopping is necessary to find one. You can buy the voyage with 75 Doubloons .

There’s no telling which chest you’ll come across as you can get multiple copies of each for every island you visit. It’s best to get a hold of them nonetheless if you’re looking to get commendations like the Hoarder of Grog Soaked Gold or Hoarded of Treasured Tears . These commendations depend on the chest you’ll be selling of course so get digging!

To complete the voyage, use the Wayfinder of Legends to find and dig up the cursed chests, you’ll know you’re on top of one once it starts spinning uncontrollably and refuses to point north. While digging your work will be interrupted by nearby skeletons guarding the chest, dispatch them with whatever weapon you have on hand and continue with the hunt.

If you’re island hopping and wish to hoard more chests remember to throw the cursed items overboard first to make sure your ship is still intact when you come back, here’s what you’ll be looking for:

• Chest of a Thousand Grogs – Will keep you drunk and inebriated, can be sold for a maximum of 2600 gold.
• Chest of Sorrow – Will occasionally cry and fill the ship with water, can be sold for a maximum of 3500 gold.
• Chest of Rage – Will overheat and explode from time to time, setting your ship ablaze. Douse the flames with water and sell the chest for 3000 to 3500 gold, nearly the same value as the Chest of Sorrow.
• Chest of Everlasting Sorrow – Worse than the normal Chest of Sorrow as it cries endlessly, requiring even more attention to make sure your ship doesn’t fill up with water, can be sold for a hefty 6000 – 7000 gold however.

Those are all of the cursed chest you can get your hands on along with their detriments, now you can try and dig them up for yourself and amass a fortune!

• While the Fort encounter itself has been rebalanced to dynamically scale in difficulty to the number of pirates in the fight, each wave of skeletons is now a roll of the dice with different skeleton forms appearing to challenge the crews’ skills in combat.

Fort of the Damned

• Crews taking on this wicked encounter will find the Shadows of Fate and Ghost of Graymarrow now dynamically scale in difficulty to the number of pirates storming the Fort.
• The Shadows of Fate summoned to battle will now always appear as a single color within a wave, requiring less switching the Flames of Fate during the encounter.

Ghost Fleet Encounter Returns

• Once again, crews can encounter Ghost Ships summoned through the rift before facing off against Flameheart’s flagship, the Burning Blade.
• Following Flameheart’s resurrection, he no longer watches over this encounter. However, crews should look for a swirling tornado in the sky to indicate the encounter has begun.

Megalodon Encounters

Shipwreck Locations

• Sunken wrecks will now appear more frequently between islands rather than on the outer areas of the map, making them more easily discovered by crews during their journeys.

The Legendary Search for Cursed Treasure

• This new Voyage exclusive to Pirate Legends aims to test crews’ sailing skills against the hazards that hoarding accursed treasure may bring.

Grab a bundle from the nearest shipwright before setting sail.

Captain’s Logbook

Ship Scuttle Improvements

• Crews wishing to scuttle their ship will now be presented with two options. Crews can ‘Scuttle the Ship and Change Seas’ which will move them to a fresh server, providing a predictable way of leaving a server behind for a fresh encounter on likely calmer waters. Crews are still free to choose the original ‘Scuttle Ship’ option, which destroys their vessel while keeping them on the same server.

Trading Company Voyages

• All Cursed Mermaid Statues now offer better rewards when destroyed, with a chance of multiple Gems for lucky crews.

New Hunter’s Call Representative

• Stephen’s Spoils has felt empty since Merrick was lured away to his fate by the Dark Brethren. To help fill the void in pirates’ hearts, a new member of The Hunter’s Call has arrived to call Stephen’s Spoils home: Adelrick is now stationed at Merrick’s old post, continuing to trade on behalf of the family business.
• Tired of climbing up all the way to the crow’s nest? Pirates can now equip flags from the Ship Customization Chest near the shipwright in the same way as equipping other ship customizations.

• Players may experience scenarios where they encounter ping spikes at random while playing, resulting in rubberbanding or client stutters. While improvements were most recently released in update 2.7.3, the team continue to work on further improvements for future updates.

Ranged and Melee Weapon Hit Detection

• In areas of intense action, players may find themselves firing shots or landing strikes that do not cause damage to their targets. While small improvements continue to be delivered during our regular updates, we are continuing to investigate and identify further improvements to the player combat experience.

Sea of Thieves Season 7 Pirate Milestones & Alignments Changes

As part of the Captaincy Update for Season 7 of Sea of Thieves, a new progression system known as Milestones was introduced. While not technically Achievements, they serve the same purpose by providing permanent in-game trackers on which players can brag about their progress in any number of categories.

There has been a lot of discussion on the official Sea of Thieves website about the prior Milestone Progression Objectives, and improvements have been made to accommodate those feedbacks without sacrificing the original idea as a longer-term progression system. As such, let’s have a look at the changes made to Sea of Thieves’ Pirate Milestones.

All Changes made to Pirate Milestones

Keep in mind that completing a milestone objective listed down in each alignment will increase your milestone class by one. Think of Classes like levels, and each Milestone starts at zero. Furthermore, it will offer rewards that are aligned with the tenets of the Alignment it is part of.

• Minutes Spent on Fire – decreased from 60 to 5
• Buckets Bailed – decreased from 100 to 50
• Times Sunk – decreased from 25 to 15

Since it’s intended to be a progression system unique to captaincy, milestones are not granted for tasks you have already accomplished.

Similar to Pirate Legend Commendations, which you must be a Pirate Legend to unlock, these are for activities you have taken while on board a Captained ship. You cannot advance Milestones when playing on a ship that is not captained.

Did these Changes affect the Milestone Classes?

You’ll notice an increase in your Class if the requirement decreased . But this should qualify you for an automatic award. Additionally, you must advance by one more Class for rewards purchased in the shop to properly display as unlocked.

You’ll notice a decrease in your Class if the requirement increased . Your previously unlocked rewards will remain such. If you have already reached a threshold that, as a result of your progress, unlocked the ability to purchase a reward, this will still be unlocked for you.
