Gameplay Updates

Activities & Events

    • World Events will now start at different times.
  • Added Seasonal Event rewards and Smuggler Pass rewards as a possible option to the Recommended Activities pop-up.

Refinery

  • Added Sinew String for crafting at the Refinery.

Contracts

  • Increased Silver reward of the job board contract "Sink Merchant Convoys".

Improvements and Bug Fixes

Voice and Text Chat

UI for Mouse and Keyboard Controls

Dev note: Following the PC/Mouse & Keyboard changes released as part of Season 3, we observed a slight difficulty increase in navigation while hovering over items. Previously, players could preview tooltip information by simply hovering but were now required to click on the item before they could view its details. With this change, we hope to reduce the friction needed to access key information while still retaining the PC/Mouse & Keyboard improvements released in Season 3.

  • Added the ability to preview tooltips in various menus when hovering over the mouse in the Cargo and Warehouse menus.
    • Clicking on an item will continue to "lock" the tooltip in place.

Bounties

  • Fixed an issue where bounties were automatically accepted and immediately failed.

Ship Upgrade

Contract

  • Fixed an issue where contracts obtained from Blackwood can only be submitted at the Telok Penjarah den.
  • Fixed an issue where players were able to submit the contract "Procure Croc Skins" to the Hawker at Sainte-Anne instead of delivering the items to a Rempah settlement.
  • Fixed an issue in the contract "Flaming Quarry", where players were able to sail around in the contract Battle Junk ship when attempting the contract as a group, before the other group members have swapped to the contract Battle Junk.
  • Fixed an issue where players who have the contract "Flaming Quarry" were not able to progress if other players destroyed the intended target.
