Anyone think it might be time to build a website/wiki ?

[Dirty]

The game is so much deeper and vast than originally I anticipated. Seems almost all the info is here on the Steam discussion site.

I'm no web dev or programmer but happy to help accumulate some of the general data if there is a group already looking into this.

[Hentaika]

In a few days gamefaqs will probably accept my full guide which has almost everything one needs to know:
Main quest hard moments for each MC, all ally getting rush process, tricky character quests explanation, tricky CG unlocks, all fishing spots, shibuilding mechanic explanation, list of all bounties/commissions, optimal guild locations for every purpose, special equips for allies, optimal ally list for each stat, barmaid info, expedition info, missable info and more things I forgot to mention here...

If someone wants to help me in advance to further update it - there are only a few pieces of info I want help with for now:
1) Any contribution dependant quest unlock requirement you might remember. I only remember one and I know there are multiple, sadly didn't pay attention before it was too late.
2) CG unlocks that are tricky(no need to list super easy ones like ally getting and such) to get excluding:
2.1 Any character quest related ones
2.2 Amsterdam 1000 tech CG
2.3 Marma Core SW africa CG
2.4 Homunculus quest one
2.5 Blackbeard/Henry card duel one

Ideally when you list any of the tricky CGs like 2.3-2.5 give approx requirement of what you think it might be.

Why don't you upload your guide to the guide section of this game here on steam?

I generally upload my guides to gamefaqs as I feel like it's better structured for full guides.

Will make separate post once gamefaqs accepts it :)

I'm currently not too far off from having all of the prices of every good in every location catalogued

[oroelf]

For 2.3, I raised the contribution to some point (I'm pretty sure it was 800 because I was trying to figure out how to get the clue for the Meerkat in SW Africa - still unsuccessful there) in Benguela. You don't get a marker over the Tavern like you would for an expedition clue, but there's a guy with a ? marker next to his name and he tells you about the animal migration in August in SW Africa.

Go there with Marma in August, find the location (sorry I forget exactly where it is, the clue says in the southwestern grassland) and when you trigger the location, there's a Marma specific action for her to ride the Wildebeest. This will give the CG.

For 2.5, I don't know what the trigger is but I was sailing in between South America and West Africa and a storm hit. Note that in most of the cutscenes Katelyn, Shen and Garaba are also present so they're probably required.

Blackbeard starts his thing about being a better captain than Henry and they're about to get into a duel when the captain (Andrew in my case) tries to find a better method for them to settle their dispute, a game that multiple people can play. I'm not sure if these first two steps are required or if you can just go straight to Zhangzhou, but I went to Venice and there was a scene there with Vera and she gives you a chessboard. Same in Athens, Priya gives you Knucklebones.

I wasn't able to find any other games in the other ports in Europe/Africa/Indian Ocean area. When I arrived in Zhangzhou, Gu Wan suggested the Madiao (Manual of Leaves) game and that's the one Andrew thinks is most suitable. After sailing around a bit more randomly, the cutscene triggers with them playing cards, Blackbeard wins, Henry gives up one of his treasures. (Jade Mask) The other crew members comment how this is one of the best treasures ever, and then Blackbeard huffs up and says he has some great treasure buried near Nassau. (map marker for the location is placed) Once you dig up Blackbeard's treasure (I think it was the Laurus Corolla?) the quest ends.

Hentaika - I have a spreadsheet on Google I've been using to track things. It's not complete so I didn't want to make it public but I can send you a link if you want to use it to cross reference anything for your guide.

I think you misunderstood me, those were the secrets I didn't need need help with XD

I need help with those I didn't list that some may have found confusing, since most of everything else was pretty straightforward.

And I am pretty much almost done with almost everything aside of contribution quest tracking, currently I have found 4 of them:
Alexandria(~800), Riga(~300), Gia Dinh(~800), Hongzhou(~300)

If you paid attention to any others that I missed - that would be very helpful.

I believe the one for Mohenjo-Daro comes from Diu contribution, not sure on threshold unfortunately.

Ty, will test that one.

EDIT:
Oh, and while you are here - I also need help with North baltic.. both main and extra show no need for the clues but I found literally neither main nor extra, not sure what I miss, I think I stepped on all tiles.

I did figure out one of them being RIga clue in the end despite no 'clue' mark, but not sure about the other one.

Snowy Owl and the Taoist Treasure Chest. Can be a little hard to trigger if I recall correctly. The treasure chest is a treasure chest so you can find that through normal methods (cane or the clue). Snowy Owl I believe requires a clue but I could have sworn it was the one you get in Riga, might be misremembering. I'm not sure if there's a timing event related to it but there might be, I remember it taking a little while to find but I think the event had something to do with corpses? Unfortunately cannot remember all that well and the notes I did take aren't exactly super detailed, sorry I can't be more help.

Yeah, I just figured out as you posted this that the bird was Riga clue about november...

It's strange that they don't show 'clue' requirement, usually they do.

Also dumb me, thinking Taoist treasure was some other expedition, ty...

aside from St.George witch iirc gives the animal migration CG art, do you happen to know by any chance if any of the others are related to a CG art? i'm looking like mad for the last one for the Gallery

I have every expedition discovery in the game except the additional objective at Merida and am still missing one so I'd say most likely not.
