The quest associated with the Maangodin ghost ship in Skull and Bones is called "Oceans Apart." Here’s a breakdown of the quest:
Steps:
Location: Travel to The Oubliette, a small outpost southwest of the Red Isle, as marked on your map.
NPC interaction: Talk to the Mysterious Rogue vendor at The Oubliette.
Quest acceptance: Accept the "Oceans Apart" contract from the Mysterious Rogue.
Maangodin location: The map will display the marked location of the Maangodin east of The Oubliette in open waters.
Challenges:
Nighttime requirement: The Maangodin only spawns at night, so ensure it’s nighttime before sailing to its location. Some players report it may remain after night, but nighttime is the guaranteed encounter time.
Ship level: The Maangodin is a level 8 ship, so ensure your own ship is at least level 8 for a fair fight.
Unique vulnerabilities: The Maangodin is immune to normal cannon fire until its two glowing skull weak points (one at the front and back) are destroyed. Prioritize these weak points with weapons like ballistae, culverins, or Scurlock’s Chasers long gun.
Teleportation: The Maangodin can teleport during the battle, requiring quick reflexes and adjustments to stay on target.
Rewards:
Tarnished Ring: Proof of your victory and completion of the "Oceans Apart" quest.
Ethereal Ashes: Special currency used to purchase unique items from the Mysterious Rogue:
Mysterious Chest: Random equipment and resources.
Hessel’s Outfit Set: Visual customization options for your character.
Blue Specter Blueprint: The most valuable reward, allowing you to craft the powerful Blue Specter flamethrower weapon.
Additional Notes:
Drops from the Maangodin are not guaranteed. You may not receive all the mentioned items, and specific drops can vary.
Some players find the rewards underwhelming compared to the difficulty of the fight. Consider this before prioritizing the quest.
Remember, defeating the Maangodin is a challenging but rewarding experience in Skull and Bones. Plan your approach, upgrade your ship, and utilize the correct tactics to conquer the spectral vessel.
