sea-of-thieves-update-2-6-0-1-heres-everything-players-need-to-know

Sea of Thieves recently received an update that included a new adventure that will be available until September 1, as well as bug fixes.

New Adventure

“A Hunter’s Cry” is the most recent adventure to be added to the list. To begin this adventure, speak with Larinna and then proceed to the Pirate Lord. The Pirate Lord will open a path to the Sea of the Damned by using the Veil of the Ancients. Players who complete the adventure will receive an exclusive title as well as a cosmetic reward, which can boost their bragging rights.

The adventure is only available for a short period of time. So, for the rewards, try to finish it before September 1st.

Insider Bug Fix

Insiders were unable to obtain the rewards due to a bug, which has been resolved in this update. Insiders who are eligible for the Sapphire Blade Sails can now be found in the Ship’s Customization Chest.

Sea of Thieves Update 2.6.0.1

Fixed Issues

Captains of Adventure 
  • As Captains set sail in a new gameplay session, they will now find that the ship’s history in the Captain’s Logbook shows correct values for Gold Earned, Islands Visited, and Nautical Miles Sailed.
  • Captains can now consistently discard Voyages from the Captain’s Bookshelf.
  • Sybil the shipwright at the Glorious Sea Dog Tavern now asks Captains to wait after purchasing supplies before additional items are offered.

Known Issues

Reduced Server Performance

Ranged and Melee Weapon Hit Detection 
  • In high-action areas, players may find themselves firing shots or landing strikes that do not damage their targets. While we continue to deliver small improvements during our regular updates, we are also investigating and identifying additional improvements to the player combat experience.
