Thank you to Grace - what a brilliant idea to paste the map together! (File under: "DUH - I wish I'd a thought uh dat!") I guess she put this together a while ago, as Cuba hasn't yet moved, according to her map.
One thing that confuses people is that "Uncharted waters" is actually ALL the edges of the map, not any particular direction. All of the new "giant" ships are found in "uncharted waters."
The Colossus flag ship spawns just North of Outcast and sails to the green patch on the map above. A Corvette flag ship spans just West of Kingshead and sails to Outcast. A Sentinel flagship shares that Covette route. The Man-o-war flagship spawns just East of Kingshead and sails to Isla Cangrejos (and back.) The Kingfisher flagship spawns just West of Tortuga and sails to Isla Perdida. The Barracuda flagship spawns just South of Isla Perdida and sails to Cuba.
To this day, I don't understand why most NPC boats stay in one place. Boat sail along particular trade ROUTES. Hundreds of years ago, those routes were fairly well known / quasi-public information. Respawning a boat could be a matter of finding the first patch of ocean with no pirate ships nearby. That way, busy servers would get FEWER NPC boats, to encourage people to get onto quiet servers. Whoa...bit off topic. Anyhow, I still wish you could board every boat, not just flagships.
Thank you for the excellent map.
