While it's tempting to start on the first free map, the newer free maps are more fun.

which is close to a really safe newbie starting area (two islands south of the location described in the above video).

Edited note: We did find squids nearby.

If he is going for Ascended, you have to do The Island first.

With fins, Lazarus Chowder and 200 stamina you can collect four nodes of black pearls near the main entrance of Valgueros deep see ocean. Afaik on The Island you can only get black pearls from creatures and not harvest them from nodes. You will be much faster with a short trip to Valguero.

Yeah and the topic is "help with pearls on the island" not "which map is more fun"...

Newbie area? Val / Rag / CI are newbie maps. Everything is easy to farm on those maps and the boss fights are jokes. They ruin a cluster because people just go there and farm the crap out of them. This is why those maps are popular, people want ezy mode and there is nothing wrong with that but fun is not the same as ezy mode.

NP, I figured that, but posted anyway just in case you really needed black pearls. Genesis is the easiest map to get black pearls, just stand around and say hello to HLNA, but it's a paid map, so didn't mention it.

Yep by the time I got to needing them I had grown up on a beach so had enough black Pearl's for my mindwipe or xp brew whichever they're for. Using a good dino you might be able to get more?
