Sumpta Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I still haven't gotten the Witches' voyage either. Maybe tomorrow. The cherry rudder shortens the Scythe missions to somewhere around 3h30. Definitely worth getting as soon as you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Ugh so I just got to scythe and my missions are over 4 hours :( How long does the cherry wood rudder take off time?Quite a lot, with decent (2.5k non-speed focused) captains you can easily take it down to ~3h28.

Sylpheed Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I dont understand what there is to get bored of. At most it takes 5 minutes to log in, check your voyages and log out / send off more voyages. At a time when I have little to no spare minutes of a day to play properly, PoP's are a perfect way for me to still be doing something good in the game that takes no time at all.

muggiwhplar Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 It was mostly a matter of unlocking the scythe and realizing that I didn't really unlock anything new. Just more of the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenw Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 I am almost convinced that the 'girl' that boosts random chance actually decreases it. Yesterday one of my voyages gave me a random (who didnt have good fortune), but the one with good fortune didn't.

Celery n Corn Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Is there anything that prevents randoms? I know I read about someone missing a bar mission and I did the same and went back and it was actually still there and I completed it. That was over a week ago and i haven't had a single random since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just left click talk to the barmaid+black marketer and if they don't initiate the random then you're just being unlucky. Thx to MxM for parts of the sig!

Sumpta Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Anyone else bored/tired of the ports already? I think I'm done playing for a while lol I'm not so much bored as I have lost the sense of urgency. I've stopped using timers and the like to know precisely when to go back to my ships etc. I think it's a natural progression from "yay, new stuff" to "I'll unlock everything in my own time." How far have you all progressed into the Scythe btw? I'm only at 44%. I have all the crew I need right now (except for the elusive Sea Witch) and all ship updates unlocked, so I guess I'll be able to get in quite a few port updates/save up cherrywood before getting to the next region.

Barney.S Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I'm at around 30%, unlocked all of the cherrywood ship upgrades, what really bugs me is the need to go get that freakin bamboo from Arc. But meh, I'll unlock them all when I do, got 4 scrolls, but 0 bone voyages so far, so that's gonna be some time before I can actually use them.

Drazhor Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 34% to the Bowl region (The place after the Scythe region) and still only at 2 ships.. Decided that I'm gonna go back and save up for the 3rd ship; because I have pretty nice crews lined up for all sorts of missions.Also, bought basically all the cherrywood ship upgrades (Apart from combat hull, which I'll get soon enough) so there's no reason not to! :P Visit my blog!

Emaxganis Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 53% into the scythe for me. 3 ships and all the upgrades bought .. should be all cherrywood missions until next area from now on with a ocassional lower island voyage to complete building upgrades Rule #14 - Don't argue with trolls, it means they win.

chenw Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 I am still in the hook region, thanks to my work time, these days i only literally have enough time to send special voyages and maybe a round of voyages, so I am still around 90% into the hook. On a brighter side, got my 10th scroll from yesterday, sent another one out today.

Emaxganis Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Past few days i've only been getting the missionary and only one adventurer, so only one special voyage a day.
