Battle Reports (BRs)

Arr, listen close, ye sea dog! They call 'em Battle Reports, and they be the finest haul for a fighter lookin' to make his name and fill his coffers. Think of 'em as a proper hunt, issued by the port's mediator.

Ye take the quest, then ye set sail to sink ships—up to two hundred of 'em! The real prize be the "Formidable Enemies," mighty bosses ye might face along the way, up to four of 'em. Sink more, earn more. It's that simple.

Why Ye Should Care

• A mountain of battle experience and fame, the quickest path to glory on the waves.
• A decent pile of ducats for yer trouble.

What Ye Need to Start

• Just the Port Permit for the sea region ye plan to raid.

Where the Bounty Be Best

The rewards grow richer the farther ye sail from the old world. A report from the capitals like Amsterdam or London is good, but one from Istanbul or the waters of Newfoundland pays in legendary sums of experience and fame. Mark this well: the risk matches the reward.

A Captain's Wisdom

Ye can turn in after sinkin' but a single ship, but patience pays. Use tools like the Battle Report HQ to plan yer hunt and avoid wastin' time. Most savvy captains fleet up and use tricks like the Amulet of the Sun to send ships to the locker faster.

Remember, lad, there's a limit to how much glory one report can hold. Sink only what ye need for the next three levels, then report and go again!

If ye hunger for the full chart—every last secret port, every trick to master the hunt—then make way to the complete guide below. I'll show ye how to seize this bounty proper.
