phelysarrian 11 Posted February 20, 2019 I happen to cross that zone yesterday evening .... man, it has the most dangerous seas I have met. Alpha wales agrroing before rendering, herds of sotD - like packs of 4 to 6 ships- ranging from yellow to super red... I just cut my route and headed out on the wind as fast as possible. Escaped with no serious damage but hell, I never go there again. Compared, J1 and H1 were a breeze... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

George Catcher 367 Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) I lost my schooner there recently. I was sailing to treasure and while on transit of I1, I got surrounded by 8 SotDs (7 of them were red and 1 - yellow). There were 2 option - try to avoid them and go counterwind or try to speed by one of them, and pray he wont do a lot of damage. And... yet he just 2 shot and got my plank gone. I was out of planks (lesson for me) and I only needed for 200 wood to create one. So I speed to closest island, went ashore and... it turned out there is NO WOOD at all. I didn't find any single tree. While I was on search mission - my ship sank. Sad story : ) Ah... and yeah. It took me 3 attempt to kill one whale. - First attempt I lost my Brig. The spears just hit invisible wall above whale back - I had just one shot left. I shot for like 15 times with 4 ballistas and not a single spear did any damage, just stuck in to the air above whale. - Seccond - I was kiting whale along the border. When I had 1 shot left - whale turned to a border and disappeared. - Third was success. Cursed place! p.s. - I was sailing along norhtern border the other day and got 2 whales at once aggroed me : ) Edited February 20, 2019 by George Catcher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
