Captains!
Holidays are approaching, and Archipelago won't miss out on the celebrations! The update B18 that's coming on December 15th, and a Holiday Event will help you celebrate.
As a tradition, you can view the preliminary Patch Notes right here, while we introduce you to the event!
And take a look at some of the new ships coming with the update!
Iberia
Three Hierarchs
Christmas in the World of Sea Battle
The festive event begins on December 23rd and is scheduled to end on January 5th:
Use special ammunition, snowballs, to sink "Sea Elves". These are special NPS (non-player ships) immune to regular cannon fire. You will find festive gifts and valuable resources in their holds
Earn the event currency, seahorses, and exchange it for valuables with overseas traders
Receive rewards for completing daily event quests
Craft special consumables in the workshop that are only available during the event
Collect gift boxes at sea
Have snowball fights with other players!
Snowball mechanics: These are a thematic ammunition type available only during the event. It only deals damage when used against "Sea Elves" - when used on other targets, it simply covers the opponent's screen with snow! Be careful: snowballs melt in the hold in the southern regions!
You can earn seahorses in the following ways:
Completing event quests
Fishing
Collecting treasures from treasure maps
Collecting loot from unique NPS
Exchanging resources at Altars
Once the event begins, every player will receive a commemorative flag and decoration for their Personal Island upon logging in.
We've also taken your feedback into account and adjusted the event schedule. After the main celebration period ends, it will still be possible to exchange seahorses at overseas traders for five more days - until January 10th, that is.
Please note that event quests are available to players of captain rank 7 and above. Additionally, all seahorses will be removed from the game once their usage period ends on January 10th.
Become a Part of our Journey!
Venturing into once-unknown waters has made our crew a little weary from its pursuit of knowledge and treasure. While sugar and rum would be adequate gifts to receive, we'd love nothing more than support from our fellow Captains beyond our spyglasses!
