1.2.3

External Link

Ahoy pirates!

Last week we fixed the issue which prevented players from obtaining The Fleet Protector of the Ancient Isles Commendation. We have now retroactively awarded the Commendation to all players who unlocked the Commendation before the fix was implemented last week.

This is the final week of Cursed Sails, making this week your final chance to obtain the campaign-exclusive Bone Crusher Ship Liveries! This patch has no download, as we are making server side changes during the scheduled maintenance window.

## Updates

* Cursed Sails Battle Times - Battle times have been rotated to give players who can only play during fixed times the opportunity to battle for a different region each week.

*This change was made in response to community feedback.*

## Fixed Issues

* Fleet Protectors of the Ancient Isles Commendation now unlocks correctly.

*Players who have met the requirements for the commendation and did not earn it before the fix have now been awarded the Commendation correctly.*

## Known Issues

* The Kraken has been temporarily disabled due to performance issues.

*We are working to enable this feature as quickly as possible.*

* Merchant Alliance crates on board a ship which sinks will not float to the surface and cannot be picked up.
* When a player receives multiple alliance offers within close proximity, accepting one alliance will form an alliance with all crews offering an alliance.

*Accepting an offer should only form an alliance with the closest crew. We have a fix for this issue which will be released in next weeks patch.*
2.0.19.1

External Link

With the events of Fate of the Damned well underway, the team has been working on additional fixes based on feedback from the community. We’re introducing those in today’s release, update 2.0.19.1.

For a refresher on all the new features and spooky goings-on in October’s content update, check out the full-length Fate of the Damned release notes!

## Fixed Issues

**Matchmaking**

* Crews joining the game should now be matchmade onto server locations optimised for their region.
* Attempting to join an Open Crew session should no longer result in a Greybeard error while searching the seas.

**Fate of the Damned**

* Text encountered during the Fate of the Damned Voyages should now be translated into languages other than English.
* Players’ progress through the Fate of the Damned Event is now in sync when viewed via the in-game Events menu.
* When speaking to Larinna, selecting the line “You’re being pretty secretive...” now has Larinna respond with the appropriate dialogue.

## Known Issues

**Fate of the Damned Voyages for Weeks 2, 3 and 4 Purchasable Early**

* After completing the Voyage entitled The Search for Wild, Plentiful Shadows of Fate, players may find Larinna’s Black Market prematurely offering Voyages for upcoming weeks. While these Voyages are functional, the Challenges that they progress are locked until subsequent weeks, therefore progress is not correctly tracked.

**Players Impacted Following Server Migration**

* We are currently tracking a number of player-impacting issues which can occur following a server migration. These include crews migrating near Outposts finding themselves moved to a location where another ship is already present, and issues with ship interaction points.

**Ranged and Melee Weapon Hit Detection**

* In areas of intense action, players may find themselves firing shots or landing strikes that do not cause damage to their targets. While improvements continue to be delivered during our content updates, this continues to be a key priority for the team.

**Stuck UI Menus**

* When interacting with a barrel and moving quickly through its inventory, players may find that the barrel’s state is not updated as items are removed. Players can also find the Game Options become stuck on-screen when exiting a barrel in this state.

 Type

The **Ancient Priest**, also known as the **High Priest**, is an NPC who can be encountered during the Legend of the Veil during Haunted Island chapters. He will fight alongside players against Reaper Phantoms and reward players with a Veil Stone upon defeating the Soulflame Captain.

The High Priest is notable for being among the first Ancients to appear in-game, with all appearances of Ancients prior being depictions of them in rock paintings and mentions in Journals and dialogue.

## Dialogue

**During the Legend of the Veil**

Ancient Priest

Before lighting the final brazier:

In the realm untraveled.

Where our ancestors dwell.

Hear our call.

May the worlds be joined once more.

Let the veil be parted.

After defeating the Soulflame Captain:

You fought well.

I sought to reconnect the two worlds once.

I now know they must remain parted.

We must have balance, a world of the living and a world of the dead.

Protect the veil.

## Notes

* The Ancient Priest as well as other Ancients encountered during the Legend of the Veil cannot be killed.
	+ This fact can be exploited by setting the Priest and other Ancients on fire, letting them perpetually burn Reaper Phantoms and the Soulflame Captain to defeat them with little effort.

## Trivia

The **Ancient Skull** is a Quest Item for The Seabound Soul Tall Tale. The mysterious Skull was cursed to eternally lock away the soul of a mighty Captain.

## Mechanics

The Ancient Skull is found as a part of The Seabound Soul after gaining access to the Tomb Cave at Flintlock Peninsula.

The Enchanted Lantern will reveal ghostly Skeletons dragging the Captain's Sarcophagus from the shore to the cave.

After opening the Sarcophagus, Players will retrieve the Skull from the skeleton found inside and deliver it to Sir Arthur Pendragon for a magic ritual.
Pendragon will be outside the cave, ready to perform the ritual after you have dealt with Captain Adara and a few skeletons.

The Ancient Skull is only useful for the Crew attempting the Tall Tale and cannot be sold to any Trading Company. Once the Skull is lost or sunk, the Tall Tale will fail.

## Background

The Skull belongs to none other than Captain Flameheart who was betrayed by his own kind and eternally locked away in the Skull. The Ashen Dragon was the funeral pyre of Flameheart sending him to eternal rest in a Tomb Cave on Flintlock Peninsula in The Devil's Roar. Unknowingly, Sir Arthur Pendragon and the player are tricked into finding and undoing the curse of Flameheart as a part of The Seabound Soul Tall Tale, releasing his soul once again.

Animal Crates

Type

**Animal Crates** are Transportable Items used to Capture, Transport, and Deliver Animals in Sea of Thieves.

## Where to Find

Animal Crates are provided by any Merchant Alliance Trading Company Representatives at Outposts when Crews have an active Merchant Voyage that require the capture of Animals. The appropriate kind and number of Crates are relevant to the Animals listed on the Merchant Contract accessed from the Map Radial Menu.

Empty Animal Crates can also be found either beached or hidden on Islands.

## Mechanics

An Animal Crate has no value on its own and cannot be sold back to the Merchant Alliance empty. The Crates are only valuable when carrying Animals. Player Crews will have to travel to Islands that spawn Animals (Large Islands spawn two types of Animals, Small Islands spawn just one) and manually capture these Animals inside the appropriate Crates. Each type of Crate can fit a specific Animal.

A Player Pirate can capture an Animal, if they are holding the appropriate Animal Crate and are next to the Animal in question. A prompt will appear, indicating that the Animal can be captured inside the Crate. Once captured, the Animal can then be delivered back to any Merchant Alliance Representatives on Outposts and sold for Gold and Reputation. On their own, captured Animals are not worth much Gold and Reputation. However, if a Crew has acquired a Merchant Contract that requests the delivery of a specific Animal to a specific Outpost by a date and time, completing the Commission will reward players with 10 times as much Gold and Reputation for the specific Animals.

## Types of Animal Crates

* Chicken Coop - Used for Capturing any of the four types of Chicken. Chickens are the easiest to deliver.
* Pig Crate - Used for Capturing any of the four types of Pig. Note that Pigs need to be periodically fed Fruit, or they will starve and die.
* Snake Basket - Used for Capturing any of the four types of Snake. Snakes will bite and Poison the player, but they can be tamed for a short while by playing Instruments.

## Notes

* Animals can die inside Crates. Try to keep them safe from sources of damage like Cannonball fire, Fire, Weapons or even Poison from adjacent captured Snakes.
* When Animals die in a Crate, they leave behind uncooked Meat on the floor of the Crate (or Burnt or Cooked Meat when killed by fire).
