Hoarder of the Barnacled Gold

  • This might be widely known but is this commendation bugged? I seem to be handing in a hell of a lot of ship wrecked/barnacled chests and the counter goes up at a snails pace, it's gone up by about 3 the past week even though I handed in 20+ this weekend alone. Anyone else having the same?

    On a side note, my chest of grog commendation has the same picture icon as the barnacled gold commendation as well at the moment.

  • it only counts chests that you picked up from an actual shipwreck.
    Washed up chests, that you find on the beach do not count.
    (even if they look like shipwrecked chests, they do not count)

  • Aye, I made a thread about this issue a few days ago. I find it weird that although the notification read "Shipwrecked Chest Sold" it does not count unless the chest was found in a Shipwreck. I think washed up, chests obtained from defeating the megalodon, kraken and Skeleton Ships should count as well.
    I have raised a support ticket but the response wasn't even close to mediocre...
    Raise more awareness!

  • It does seem odd that a chest covered in barnacles, regardless of where it came from does not count unless it was from an actual wreck... Which also means there is a some variable attached to a chest to say where it came from.

  • @octopus-lime Get wrecked!

    By which I mean, time to go diving wrecks.
