World Ocean introduction

World Ocean exploration has been introduced first time in Hurricane Island Mystery version.
World Ocean is an exploration system designed for all players. It requires player to explore all aspects of the world, from exploring drifters to fighting various pirate bosses and even doing trade runs between cities.

Exploration log



Exploration Log is a new unique feature added in Atlantis patch. Exploration Log keeps track of points earned while exploring certain areas in game. Exploration log can be accessed by clicking magnifier icon on bottom of screen above F3 button. Exploration log is divided into 3 categories, Biology Exploration, Industry Exploration and Culture Exploration. Each category is different and uses different ways of obtaining points.

Biology Exploration. Points are obtained by killing pirate bosses around the world. Points are obtained automatically when a boss dies. If one player kills a boss, everyone in his team will receive same amount of points. Its best to team up with players while collecting points. This way it is possible to obtain them much faster. Certain bosses need to be boarded. These ones will not reward points for the whole team.
Industry Exploration. Points are obtained by submitting various industry materials to World Ocean Industrial Explorer at Lisbon Port. Industry materials are dropped from pirate bosses around the world. Some of them can also be found in drifters.
Culture Exploration. Points are obtained by submitting quests from Cards. Cards are dropped from ships in all battlefields.

Exploration system is also a reward system. Players will receive different rewards as their points grow up. More information about prizes can be found below.

Biology exploration

Biology points are obtained automatically upon killing a certain pirate boss. Killing some bosses while being in team will count for everyone in it. This way it is possible collect points up to 5 times faster. Some bosses have to be boarded and killing them will only grant points for the player that kills them.

For detailed information about High Sea Pirate Bosses, their spawn locations, routes and spawn rates please check the High Seas Pirate Boss Ultimate Guide and The Pirate's Cove Navigator.
