Base Gold Reward 2000 - 4000 Gold

Merchant Manifests are Treasure relating to the Merchant Alliance icon Merchant Alliance. They spawn exclusively during Lost Shipment voyages as the final treasure that completes the voyage.

Mechanics[]

Merchant Manifests may be carried or stored in Container Chests. Manifests will emit a white glint from a distance, making them easier to spot. Every manifest can be caught with a Ship's Harpoon.

Crews sailing as Merchant Alliance Emissaries or Reaper's Bones Emissaries can receive Emissary Grade Reputation for picking up and putting Merchant Manifests on their Ship for the first time. Selling Merchant Manifests to either of the two companies as Emissaries provides Emissary Value.

Where to find[]

Merchant Manifests are found exclusively during Lost Shipments voyages. A Manifest will be inside the final Shipwreck, held by the skeletal remains of a Merchant Captain.

NOTE: If the Shipwreck fails to spawn, the Manifest may still spawn on the the surface of the water under the flock of seagulls.
