Circumnavigation Quest (Storyline)

Welcome to my circumnavigation storyline guide. The only NPC by NPC circumnavigation guide.

The main storyline allows you to experience the age of exploration. Its events, struggles and accomplishments.

The circumnavigation is one of my favorites as it allows you to experience the voyage and hardships from the original voyage. If you want to experience it in its fullest potential, do it in a "Graduation Sambuk" or other Sambuk class ship (No clermont). If you like challenges you can even pick a smaller ship.

Note: I have kept spoilers at a minimum by not including the dialogs (Which you might otherwise accidentally read / ruining the story).

If you are stuck, revisit NPC by NPC to find which dialog / action you missed. Other tips:

• Sometimes you can find key NPC in the mini map.
• The story is linear so you need to talk to each NPC and get each dialog to be able to make progress.
• Some battles may be avoided but not all. Taking a detour will prevent the storyline from progressing.
• You can always look at your journal and check in which chapter you are and continue from there.

Important NPCs

You meet and interact with several NPCs:

• Juan Sebastian Elcano
• Diego Barbosa
• Elena
• Legazpi

Useful Consumables

Only consider using one of these if you are having trouble defeating the enemy:

• Navy Dispatch Request
• Letter of Appreciation from Seafarers
• Amulet of the Sun

Note: You can skip (Retreat from one of the battles but not from the last one). The last battles are too difficult for beginners (in school ships) to fight it alone. However, you can circumnavigate in a smaller ship (for the mangellan's experience) and switch back to your main battleship before the battle start.

To start the quest

You should trigger the "Circumnavigation Quest" when you receive the Southeast Asia Port Permit.

Go to your capital city's port and you should be summoned back to your ruler.

Go to the palace to accept it and you will get the permit. If you are not spanish you will be called to Seville to start from there.
