Baffler Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Ok, new question then. How do you unlock new regions? I've done several voyages today, with no significant progress at all. :< I assumed when the next zone reaches 100% we'd get a new region, so keep doing voyages is my plan. Also got this for the bar maids thingy (I enjoyed serving beer): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Ok, new question then. How do you unlock new regions? I've done several voyages today, with no significant progress at all. :< I think you get 2-3% progress towards the next zone with each successful mission. I'm at 84% right now.

Chwish Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Ok, new question then. How do you unlock new regions? I've done several voyages today, with no significant progress at all. :< I believe (and I haven't expanded the territory I can venture to yet so don't quote me on this) that just by simply doing missions (especially, or possibly only, those that reveal new territory, like the cyclops one) your percentage of the are you're exploring will increase. This can be seen on the map. I'm assuming once you reach 100%, you'll be able to just move onto the next area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scaperday Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Just reached 100% on the first part of the map, lost the unlock screen but it said something like ''You have unlocked the skull region and can now receive gun powder and send adventurers on voyages to look for scrolls. Here are some screenies of the port management. And a voyage with gunpowder reward Edit: Just got the chance to recruit a new crew member; Eastern Guide. Costs 250 chimes & 80 gunpowder but has base stats of 0, 0, 350 seafaring, 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggiwhplar Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Still surprised that this isn't a skill, considering how big it is. Especially considering they made DG into a skill... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randox Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 My first thought was that it was a shame I didn't go all the way to 90RC, since with the nuke to the span shortly after I stopped, fishing would be the skill I would bring to 90, and that would take a while. Then I remembered I actually did take RC to 90, and all is good. I'll have to try it out this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppe Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Still surprised that this isn't a skill, considering how big it is. Especially considering they made DG into a skill... Much agreed. In almost every respect this is the sailing skill. Jagex just promised the skill itself would never happen, instead it is a massive minigame. Think I would actually enjoy this as a skill... would in many regards be a farming like skill which I enjoy. The Skull region voyages take quite a bit longer then the initially arc region. They start out at an hour and 10 minutes. I have two out currently for 120 coins and 80 slate, will have to wait until morning for them though. Also a whole host of new crew members in the Skull region as well. Oh and as to the map of the entire Eastern region, I don't think its complete. If you have done the cyclopes island (or however Jagex spelled it) then you'll notice it is not on the map hedgehog hosted, leaves some room for some more special voyage islands to be discovered I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randox Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 No. Making it a skill is just adding an obstacle to progression. Just because we have one skill-that's-like-a-minigame doesn't mean we need more :P 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_R Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Had a bunch of extra bamboo after I unlocked the second region, finished my second round of voyages and bought all the ship/port parts that require bamboo (with the exception of the bar and office that also require steel) so I bought the ornate portal. It's cosmetic only but I thought it looked nice. Also here are some crew member traits: Plucky - Improved combat (it doesn't say how by how much in a percentage so I'm assuming it's dependent on the crew member's level and base stats)Eagle Eye - Improved Seafaring (assuming the same as plucky)Eager - Improved Morale (...)Solidarity - Gives +25 stats to per unique crew member aboard (does not stack) my personal favorite so farShort Sighted - Reduced Seafaring (see plucky)Rallying Cry - All xp gains for this crew member's boat are increased by 10%Merchant - Improve the goods received by a mission by 10% (does not stack) I know crew members can have more than one trait (my captain has two) but idk what the limit is.

aspeeder Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I'm...lukewarm to this at the moment. I did enjoy sending out my ships, and I will admit that a lot of my negative feelings were just me making mistakes and getting used to the interface, it's just too bad that I only started after the day changed so I wasn't able to do as many runs. Guess the one thing I'm not so happy with is that it kinda prevents me from powertraining, especially rc in runespan since by the time I have all the runes I need and traverse I don't have much grind time before the ship comes. I'm sure a routine will come about, and it works pretty well in intervals with the daily tasks I get. http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 32 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 9 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They appear in the crew members roster randomly and you have to recruit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
