What to do

StorylineThe Cape of Stranglethorn, step 48 of 62

Description

Hey, new guy, take a look at this. <The dwarf flips up his eyepatch to reveal a living, functional eyeball.> I don't wear this patch because of any lost eye. I wear it because this OTHER eye is so strong, the normal one was just weighin' it down. This eye's good for seein' all kinds of things, like those masked hooligans that follow us around. Fleet Master says that they've been spotted over on Jaguero Isle. Once you get there, fire this flare gun, and I'll help you spot 'em.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ol' BlastyThe Cape of Stranglethorn · Level 10-30

    We've got some work to do. How much experience have you got with cannons? Hmm... really? Well, how about with ancient, fallin'-apart pirate cannons? We've got a few cannons updecks that work the old-fashioned way: you load one cannonball in at a time, aim, lock it into place, and fire.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Drive-By PiracyThe Cape of Stranglethorn · Level 10-30

    Now that you know how to handle our cannons, it's time to hit some real targets! The Venture Company has found gold to the north of here... a rare type they call "Black Gold". More like a Black Spot if you ask me.
