[Jamesvsthekraken]

Maybe it's Raven Cove? But I like to call it "Raven's Cove" myself.

Apparently, even bad guys trip over stones.

Speedway, do you think you could show us that boss ship you mentioned? Any boss ship that has the possibility of being stronger than the Goliath brings my interest.

[Pirate lord 227]

Is this cursed blade the same as the lost blade? Or do we not know yet? If it is i'm sure some pirates wouldnt be happy... being able to quest for a sword it took some months to find...

[Dog Firestack]

Maybe it might be a weapon Unlock.

Weapon Unlock: Cursed Blades.

Just a thought.

[Machazzard]

Or maybe... instead of them actually being weapons, we will just "collect" them like we do with every other quest Island..
Ex: Tia Dalma needs help making her potion, go find her six Kraken Eyes from Navy ships.

I sure hope not, but I'm just throwing ideas out there.

It's kinda close.

[Sven Osymthe]

The grenades quest you posted is a little different than it is now, but you're right, they're close. (For a while it's been, instead of returning to Kingshead again, you go to Fort Dundee. And you don't have to smuggle grenades to an island.)

I said before, this seems like a glorified weapons quest. Although the new challenges makes it worth it.

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Hmm... maybe its a quest that you get at a certain level, a weapon unlock like Dog said. Maybe you get it at level 40, and you do a quest for it... that would be interesting.... Although then cursed blades would need to be completely different from swords and daggers.... Now I'm even more excited!

[Midhav]

I don't think so. There looks to be new elements such as luring ghosts out into the open, something with grave stones, etc... Involvement of mini games also is new. I mean how do we use a potion on a ghost? I believe that this Quest is going to introduce a new form of... questing.

[Captain luke]

I believe that this Quest is going to introduce a new form of... questing.

This will make questing much better. Its not just like "Defeat 10 gypsies, and return to Jack Sparrow" Its just better than that. And if this quest is just a little "Side-quest" and it is this cool, just imagine the new story quest! I also think that there will be two new small mini-games added along. One will be Skeleton Poker, and the other will be..

Summon a ghost at a grave marker and defend him from waves of attacking ghosts

That might be another mini game to do, or it could just be a one time thing that you do for the quest (Which would be lame)

[Midhav]

I don't believe that the "summoning" is a new mini game, Luke. It's probably "a one time thing that you do for the quest", which alone is unique and thus cool. It will also, as you said, play a part in the Next Big Story Chapter, whenever it released. See, things like these make questing fun. I wouldn't want to do a ghost gatherin' mini game o'er and o'er again!

These sounds will appear in the Cove's Mine, probably. It won't come directly from the ghosts, but rather serve as background noises. I mean, it's titled as sfx_groan, etc. not ghost_groan, so we can expect sounds from enemy ghosts during a fight, can't we?

[Ropeburn]

I think that el patron could be this boss? I think im wrong though..

[Roger Sharkshot]

i think we defeat him and/or his ship
