Merchant quests location?
I'm trying to complete the Merchant Master achievement but i can't find the locations of the following quests:

-The Catch of a lifetime (aka Dragonfish Quest) (EDIT 2: found at 58 W, 1 N)


-Valtuila Lilly (aka Nyissa's Ring Quest)


-Cover to Cover (aka Warrior's Axe Quest) (EDIT 1: found it at 52 W, 10 N)


-An Old Man's Revenge (aka Buffbeard's Ring Quest)


-Queen Of The Jungle (aka Assassin's Boots Quest)


I've visited around 20 merchants close to me but they all deal in quests that i have already done.
All the coordinates i have found by googling or by seaching on forums are outdated.
Can you share with me the coordinates (default seed) of these quests if you have encountered them?

EDIT: All the merchant quests and their locations:

A Better Brew 29E, 9S
The Loony Light 1W, 24S
The Spider Queen 52E,58S
Shark Soup 67E, 39S (there's alot of these in the starting area)
The Catch of a lifetime 58W, 1N
The Voyager's Maiden 30E, 30S
Hightop Bloom Hunter 10E, 16N
Valtuila Lilly 88W, 73S
Cover to Cover 52W, 10N
The Dark Deer 27E, 39N
An Old Man's Revenge 85E, 65N
Queen Of The Jungle 83E, 81N
A Hard Find 19E, 64N (there's alot of these in the starting area)

I know I've run across the "Catch Of A Lifetime" merchants, but for some reason never documented them. I don't know why I found so many of the Valtulia Lilly quests, I guess there are a lot of lovesick merchants out there. These are for the "default" seed and should be accurate, I dug these out of the MapSection.txt file that Salt records your map data in, which I assume gets updated sequentially. I checked the first few locations against my in-game map and since I finally reached the 2000 accurately charted islands mark I am reasonably certain that the rest of them should also be correct.

Valtulia Lilly:
173E x 172S, 168E x 172S, 160E x 69S, 124E x 136S,
207E x 163N, 229E x 180N, 148E x 98N, 85E x 73N,
112W x 119S, 199W x 220S, 88W x 73S, 110W x 65S,
181W x 69S

Queen Of The Jungle:
154E x 162S, 202E x 163N, 204E x 151N, 83E x 81N,
152W x 203S, 280W x 243S, 154W x 62S

Old Man's Revenge:
89E x 82S, 85E x 65N, 278W x 242S

Cover To Cover:
218E x 131N, 54E x 40N, 181W x 169S, 176W x 209S,
163W x 238S, 216W x 223S, 271W x 244S, 180W x 76S

Good luck, perhaps you could update this thread with any other locations you find...

Thank you for sharing with us. I'm travelling to the closest location to see if we have the same quests. I hope the quests they give is always the same in that set location and not some rng, that changes for different worlds.
I will share all my coordinates as soon as i'm done with this achievement.

1 more thing: You manually mapped all 2000 locations? D:
I just downloaded someone elses 2000+ map, checked with the cartographer, yoinked all the rewards and the achievement.

Your welcome.
Somebody had to manually map those 2000+ islands.

You're a lifesaver dude. I like achievement hunting but mapping 2000 islands would have been a nightmare.

Hey WillieSea, I finally cracked the 2000 islands mark! Currently I have about 2100 at 100% accuracy according to old Hachure. Don't know if you're interested in a copy of my map file, I recall that you couldn't find a convenent JSON utility to combine them last time. I tend to wander about more than 100+ units from the origin, I suspect that if I tried plotting all my islands it would look like an extremely drunken spider's web.

Congratulations! For the amount of work to do that, I wish the reward was a little better. ;)

When ever you would like to, I would be happy to aquire your map file. Although I don't have a JSON combiner, what I do is write down the island locations, and just add them to my map manually. Then ask ol' Hachure how correct it is. lol!
