An update to the Hunter's Call is one of the things I have been waiting for the most ! I have always imagined Hunter's Call voyages to be PvE bounties, where we have to track (sometimes with a map, sometimes with a description of an area and the monster, or clues), find and defeat special (new?) animals and monsters, both on land and on the seas, and sell their "trophies" to Seaposts or Outposts. So something similar to what you said in the video about trophies. And of course I would appreciate the Kraken and Megalodon fights to last more than 1 minute, and offer some actual loot...

[@MoronicsX]

They should add some more sea monsters to this game and then make hunters call bounties for them would be cool asf

[@maccanaise55]

Agree with this. I'm thinking Dragon Turtle. The devs love DnD so I've my fingers crossed

[@subjectnivleis7572]

[@mistyolhausen9849]

Also think there should be a Hunter's Curse considering the grind. Make it unique too where you have one, two or even three variations, and could be based on what you hunt. Ie, Sea Cursed for fish, Land Cursed for meat, and Monster Curse for Kraken/Mega.

[@Choom89]

Shark teeth or crab claws protruding from skin!

[@astropoet9245]

I’ve always thought of there being a possibility for pirates to have a mermaid curse that makes them look like, well the mermaids in the game. Perhaps with the establishment of hunters call, it could also be a way to deepen the ties to the sea creatures below as well.

[@tempesttossed6029]

THIS, a hunter's curse would be fantastic. Getting their tattoo was too easy, there should be different rewards for the grind.

[@Sm3lmaT0es]

[@FrenziedRoach]

Trophy's from the Megs and Kraken is probably the best idea out of the bunch.

[@somebodykares1]

We also have to consider that the Hunter's call has one less representative that can be sold at, since Merrick is no longer at his post his spot has never been filled so his sea post is just Stephan who does not take the fish.

[@jared6343]

i've always wanted the sea dogs tavern to be taken over by the Hunter's Call and made into their new base of operations as part of a Hunter's Call update, like a sort of gift to Merrick's family by the Pirate Lord for everything he did for Athena's Fortune. It's sad that cool area is still abandoned

[@johnystein0089]

The goldfish idea was pretty good, along with the kraken world event, would increase the fun on the open seas a lot. I too have thought about updating The Hunter's call and what suprised me in this video is, just how many same ideas we had. The bait box and fish crate was also my idea, but as a part of a voyage. Where you would be given a contract to catch specific fish and specific types, to catch specific amount and to deliver them by a specific date to somewhere. The catch (pun intended) was you could fish more and fill up the box, to get full box bonus as a part of the contract. This would be natural to the Hunter's call and also test the players knowledge and ability to find and catch specific types of fish. Great idea, great video.

[@doomesst6422]

The gold fish is a nice idea but how could you steal it from other players if its in thier inventory?

[@Choom89]

You can also trade in Gems and empty Treasure Chests, but I agree. Would love to see a Hunter's Call update that expanded the faction and added some fishing/monster hunting voyages.

[@jenlane000]

i think a voyage for hc could be a major improvement, maybe something involving the sea forts since they have that big stove? trawling could also be a cool feature if possible. edit: now that I think about it further in depth cooking could also be a cool feature exclusive to hc, i always thought hardtack should be in the game.

[@toastedbagel9306]

Ive been preaching to my crew ever since shrines were released, about how much of a missed opportunity a new fish type was. Fishing above or even inside the ones that allowed it. So awesome to see this idea thrown in a vid, glad to know there must be many others that thought the same

[@clonetrooper2942]

My idea for hunters call has always been you get a quest to gather certain Meats there for completing the quest and giving you a food packet which once put in the water will summon a Megalodon

[@shrekwesmobamboo]

Would you look at that, we have a bait crate, and you can deliver fish at outposts because of the sovereign!

[@notwalrus1233]

I love the hunters call and agree with all the points you made. I've also thought for a long time that the hunters call needed an update with something like sea monster hunting quests and more interesting fish behaviour when being caught rather than the monotonous mechanism that is the same for every fish currently. But again thanks for the video and you raised allot of great ideas.

[@flintwildpants8710]

I think if the hunters call get an update, maybe the seaposts should as well. They should slowly have more added to them, wrapping around the rocks they perch on fully and adding more than just the two npc's there. I also thought the discount store that seaposts have are a bit of a lost novelty. There should be a larger pool of things that seaposts sell at a discount, including some rare rag-tag exclusives like reskins of The Legends Of The Sea ragtag sets, among other things. Maybe have the lore involve a mutually beneficial partnership between the Merchant Alliance and Hunters Call change the Sea Of Thieves economy and slightly upgrade outposts and greatly upgrade seaposts to proper little rest-stops that you want to check out or resupply at.

[@joebilby1389]

Other fish that could be added. Athena Fish - they could spawn at the Athena tornados. You could also have Sea of the Damned fish that would spawn at the portals to the Sea of the Damned.

[@doggo_the1st]

SMART

[@blobloblob0186]

Talks of a hunter's call update were actually made with hints towards there being a new world event (not sure if it is hunter's call related tho) and also hints towards the merfolk being involved in some way, so we have hope

[@zackatk77]

THIS! ALL OF THIS! I've wanted additions like this for Hubter's Call for so long. I even suggested that leveling up a HC Emissary would give you a higher chance of catching trophy fish to help the grind be a little less cumbersome. The new and golden fish types is a great idea as well! It'd definitely spark some new excitement into the lore of the game on how these fish came to be. Fish Of The Damned perhaps? Hmm?????

[@emersonbaker3175]

They need to add different classes of ships. for example a Hunters Call Sloop or a Merchant Galleon. Every ship would have slightly different construction depending on the class. Like a Hunters call sloop would have Functional fishing nets to catch fish 4 times faster than using a rod and it could hold a maximum of 24 fish until unloaded. and rare could Add crabs and lobsters to catch in nets. It would basically be a Commercial fishing boat and you could go in storms and stuff and have some pretty cinematic adventures.

[@g_raffthearchlich]

WE GOT A BAIT CRATE

[@aurorasyreen863]

Actually one thing my crew and I were thinking about for some time was the Meg adventure. Something similar would be an awesome Hunter's Call quest - go to this location, shoot a flare or even play summon the megalodon and summon a meg. Here's a vessel for it's soul, bring it back, we sell it to the order, Kraken knows what they do with it.

[@nyanbonecrush]

FISHING NETS Purchased at the Hunter's call, and equipped at a shipwright, these nets either replace front harpoons of your ship, OR replace your rowboat dock behind the ship. The net drags underwater as you sail. You could toggle to lower the net all the way, part of the way, or keep it rolled up. The lower the net is set, the slower your ship is. As you sail, you will passively collect fish and garbage inside of your net . Alone, the results will be mixed. But, if you attach bait to the nets before you lower them, you could increase your chances of catching a specific kind of fish.

[@thomaskeene5183]

I love all these ideas. Maybe even add a way for hunters call to have missions that end in meg or kraken encounters or maybe a brand new oceanic creature

[@Goober440]

[@chrispchicken3689]

I'd love for there to be hunting missions! Maybe a mega crab boss that spawns in sunken shrines that drops lots of mermaid gems (to incentivize swimming back down there again) or maybe on land but you have to lure it in with a caged chicken or pig. Its could spawn in coral skellies and ocean crawlers too. It could be a great, fun way to level up hunters call! They could also bump the cap up to level 75 like the rest of the factions and have more cool cosmetics to earn that you can buy from the seaposts, like trinkets for your ship like a megaladon tooth or kraken beak. There's so much potential for hunters call!

[@nugorra]

[@Z0MB1E57]

[@EclipseSJ556]

Honestly it would be cool if they gave Hunters Call a voyage that required a certain amount of specific fish to be acquired, or certain underwater shrines to be completed, and the end of the quest would have you fight a sea monsters like a Kraken, Megalodon, or hell, maybe something new like a Leviathan which would drop specific Hunters Call loot.

[@Flizzar]

Buccaneers were mostly land hunters of wild boars and cattle. A cool mission could lead us to a root to use as a bait for a huge beast roaming on a particular big island, fight and kill it. But I can be happy just with a cooking station on each sea post.

[@kubankhaos]

1:07 Gems and Breaths of the Sea earn reputation. Both found in shrines and have about a 10-15 minute respawn.

[@Spencer8242]

1:18 never have I ever heard a more relatable sentence

[@neekk040]

Small quests could consists of gathering a specific type of fish that have to be handed in directly from the hook to prevent gathering them beforehand (alternatively a quest related icebox that only accepts fish fresh from the hook, if the quests involves more than one type of fish - stolen somewhere from reddit) But to really mix things up there could be quests involving cooking specific dishes by introducing a new type of chest (thinking about a cloche and platter) that holds up to 3 or 4 cooked foods. so you get called to deliver a "well-done starshine-ancientscale on cooked pineapples and coconuts" for a handsome reward or a simple "pork with bananas" for less but still more than its individual ingredients. the 4 stoves on sea-forts would certainly come in handy. (as an afterthought: more ingredients like shrimps or crabmeat gained from the sea creature mobs on islands) I was also thinking that eating a dish could not only heal you, but give you a slight temporal speed buff at furling/adjusting sails, repairing holes, storing or taking supplies with containers or swimming while carrying items. but balancing that could be iffy.

[@RyanW3112]

I'd love to see everything here come to light in the game! Well thought of!

[@luanilsonlima8100]

I want smaller sea enemies, like a group of strong sharks or sirens that can take down your ship. While giving some common loot, they will provide specific itens for the Hunters Call, since we are indeed hunters.

[@Alias1431]

These are actually some A+ suggestions, hope Rare listens!

[@nyanbonecrush]

FISH BOWL DECORATIONS A trinket purchased from the Hunter's call. Comes in many varieties. Three different fish bowl sizes that fit all three classes of ship. (One fish in a sloop, two fish in a brig, three in a gallon) Within these fish bowls, you can place any fish that you've caught inside so it can be a pet. Any spare bait you have lying around you could feed to your fishy friend, even give it a name. Sometimes, you might need to clean the bowl from any algae. Trophy fish can't be placed in small bowls. They count as two fish. Only the captain can set the fish inside of their bowl, and no other pirate can take the fish out of a bowl.

[@tempesttossed6029]

A spot on the map where you gather to out fish eachother sounds fun. No pvp because you can't steal from another player's inventory, but you could try yoinking off their fishing rod before they do? Or even try to steal while it's cooking if you know who caught the sought after fish. In the meantime everyone is talking and maybe end up being friendly enough to do world events (or in my case I will finally be able to group up with enough people for glitterbeard).

[@benosborne4655]

I think adding voyages would be cool too. Like a voyage that tells you to go to a specific part of the map to kill a specific megalodon. Same thing with voyages to kill krakens. Or voyages that ask you to deliver specific types of fish to certain npcs on outposts. Like maybe the tavern keeper ran out of food supplies so you need to bring them an assortment of meats, fish, and fruits. Also updates to cooking would be amazing as well. I think it would be cool if on islands they added some new vegetation that could be collected like spices, and other ingredients. You could cook some more complex meals that require specific ingredients. These meals could have special affects to when you eat them. Some that increase pirate speed or increase your "Luck" so you find more ambient treasure on islands. Adding new cookware would be cool too such as a pot so we can make soup!

[@barttroest]

Hi Falcore I was thinking how to improve the hunters call and came up with this idea. I am not sure if somebody already has thought of this idea, but I can’t find anybody who has come up with it before. But here we go (I hope you like the idea) All the companies have voyages, a normal and a tier 15 (Goldhoarder got the gold vaults and so on). but the hunters call don't even have a voyage. so my idea would make a normal voyage, to be a bounty for a specific fish(or multiple bounties) - here is an example explained fish name: sunny splashtail (that is the fish you have to catch like it could also be a stormfish or a ruby splashtail) where to find: Ocean (go to an ocean to catch it) Bait: no bait (you don't need bait to catch a sunny splashtail) (Note to bait: it would be cool if you needed another type of splashtail fx. ruby splashtail. And then the quest paper says that you can use, lets say, earthworms to get the chance op to like 90% of catching a ruby, so it is easier to catch) Condition (it means how much it is cooked): half cooked (you can only do the quest if it is cooked how it has been requested or else you just sell it as normal) you will of course get much more reputation for doing the quest than just selling normal fish. and it would probably be smarter that when you buy a voyage you get multiple quests than just a single one. Allright that is the small voyage now the tier 15. What I have in mind is a quest to go kill a kraken or a megalodon so you get a paper where there stands a location like “in K 13 a ship was sunk because of a megalodon go kill it.“ That is pretty much it. I hope you liked it 😃

My brother and I started playing Sea of Thieves within a few days of each other. He completed the tall tales, became a glorious and then triumphant sea dog, and pirate legend. Me? Well, while he studied the blade, I, I studied the fishing rod. WHOSE LAUGHING NOW!!! Edit: Still him...arena is gone and all I have to show from the triumphant sea dog set is the flag.

[@mrexists5400]

Land creatures, either spawning regularly or bigger and meaner versions from voyages , perhaps a land shark that can travel through the ground and not rock and leaps out to attack you, and can be driven to the surface with blunber bombs, kegs or fully charged disney stick. Or crocodiles that hang out in the waters near islands or on the beach Or a giant crab boss fight

[@gregmorse9836]

I love it!!! Also would be high time to get the crab or lobster in there as well

[@alexanderraukhammar2816]

Very good ideas. Love it. You just forgot one little thing. We want a land of monsters to hunt too. For example, a giant crab to fight with.

[@johnbunceiii2668]

I know I'm late to the party on this one (and the bait crate is now a thing - bonus), but I think one of the things the Hunter's Call needs is much like what you intimated about the Kraken world event BUT in addition to the Kraken we have to fight a rotation of Kaiju like monstrosities that have escaped from the sea of the damned. Creatures that the Ancients sealed away using magic that was breached courtesy of all of the recent veil-ripping us pirates have been up to of late. That coupled with a Hunter's Call emissary would be dope.

[@doggo_the1st]

What about from doing a trearsery you would have a 15% chance to get a golden fish in a barrel in the vault

[@thewhistler6537]

I always thought it'd be neat to scoop chum out of a trough at seaposts or outposts. Doubloons for a scoop, then you can carry it with you for a higher chance at a meg spawn. We could even add a pvp element to it by allowing the player to toss the chum on a players boat to spawn a meg ready to chomp the competition.

[@minomerle9906]

I once had the idea for a Hunters Call Quest system in which you would Hunt down a Megalodon and exhaust it by using the harpoon and be dragged along till it's tired. Then tie it to your ship and drag it to the nearest sea post alive for some *extra* fresh meat rewarding you with a large amount of gold.

[@amethyst_dawn]

Honestly I just want quests like that Festival of Fishing and a tackle box, I'll be satisfied with that.

[@liam10boy39]

Something ive always thought could be cool but a challenge to fishermen is if you were fishing while drunk off grog, if there was a chance that you could reel up a disgusting grog fish or blobfish of sorts, the stumbling around would probably come to a halt once you entered the reeling point of your fishing attempt

[@elgatopub]

Love it!! I have always wanted the Hunter's Call to get proper love and all of your ideas are brilliant!! I would even add more to it in terms of recipe options with two or more ingredients. And maybe even taking the ocean dwellers to another level, dropping an eel or clam. Add more crustaceans you can harvest on the sea floor like shrimp. Equip a fishing net and when you see a shiny pink glimmer at the bottom of the sea near and island, use it to harvest shrimp.

Unlock a secondary voyage type at level 25 in the hunters call that sends you after a random coloured Megalodons in set locations Land animal hunting voyage that are mixed in with the fishing voyages along with new aggressive types of animals like wild boars for example. Very rarely a dodo will spawn in a flock of chickens and can be captured and sold to the merchants for a good amount of gold or killed and sold to the hunters for an even greater amount In your golden fish spots, sharks should try and steal your fish straight from the rod. Giving your non fisher crew somthing to point thire guns at while solo players will have to kill the sharks before they cast a line or they can risk it for the fishstick.

[@AgentParsec]

The main reason they don't have the Hunter's Call at the outposts is because you could get a decent amount of expensive fish without ever leaving port. If they were at the outposts, you could stay there digging up bait relevant to the outpost's zone and fishing for the local fish, then selling them, all without leaving the relative safety of the outpost. The developers want to encourage people to set sail, but having the Hunter's Call at the outposts encourages the opposite. It would be the equivalent of the Gold Hoarders giving you maps that allow you to dig up treasure at the outpost; no risk, and decent reward. But unlike the other companies, you can get fish ANYWHERE, including at the outpost, so they can't operate in the same way as the other companies ("leave outpost, get loot, come back to sell"), and instead have to operate their own way ("get fish, find seapost, sell"). And you can't really get around it by fishing directly at the seaposts, because they don't have places where you can dig up any bait, so you have to get bait elsewhere anyway. The decision to put them at the seaposts instead of the outposts was very deliberate when you consider the above reasons, and I don't think it's changing anytime soon.

What would a Kraken cloud look like? I had an idea for a Hunters call world event. On certain islands a Roc (giant bird) would spawn. This boss fight would have it dropping boulders, Snatch pirate from the ground, and make mighty gusts of wind. When taken down the barrier protecting its nest would drop and you can get a treasure for the Hunter in the form of a Roc Egg. We have threats bellow the waves and on land. It's time Pirates look to the sky for a challenge.

My family have talked about this a bit. We would love to see Voyages where you have to find evidence of a large creature. Following those clues will lead you to where it is and then you would be able to beat it and gain loot specific to hunter's call (Like the Trophy idea). This way there could be a threat of it being stolen by players much like the Merchant Lost shipment voyage or the Veil can be stolen. I hope to see something for them as it could be a much cooler faction than it is right now.

[@aschjo]

Honestly something I thought would REALLY cool is finding traces of megladons, the kraken or perhaps other animals and creatures and then hunt these creatures completing a voyage. Another thing would be cool is if those who specialize in the Hunter's Call (e.g Emissary?) Could work alongside the merchant alliance emissary ship in having more information if where animals can be found or tracking abilities in a Trading company.

[@khamuleasterling1454]

All beautifull ideas! The ones I prefered the most are the golden fish and the new fishes! I don't like the idea to transfer them to outposts: but a new member is needed in the northstar. I just suggest, as a special voyage (all the factions have at least two type of mission), a quest where you have to go in specific islands and bait different monsters on particular locations (on the beach for giant lobsters, chupacabra in a forest, a great eagle on the mountain's top) using the base animals/fish.

[@daraestkanchi7104]

Well , about the world event part, the problem is that you cant exactly steal fish from someone. Unless you either tuck on their ship for 4 hours in an attempt to steal it off their frying pan , negotiate a deal with them or just spawn camp them for long enough that they just give it to you (which if you do that they might just eat the fish raw in-front of you just to send a message) come to think of it ,eating the golden fish raw is the equivalent of red sea-ing vault keys (well with season 9 that isnt a problem anymore)

[@ailmodragono4833]

[@brens_youtube]

I'd love the Hunters Call to expand into something more than fish. Trophy animals on Islands - big bears, gorillas, boars, wolves etc that are rare and dangerous when you come across them. Mythical beasts - Similar to the Kraken and Megs, some crazy beasts on islands. These could be tied to all sorts of quests and requirements to lure them out of hiding.

[@John_Conner222]

I think you hit the nail on the head and crafted your arguments perfectly. Now to get Rare to see this and take some action on your plan. I think if you want Rare to do this you will need to incentivize them. They will need to make new costumes, weapons, equipment, and captaincy bits and baubles for them to sell in the emporium. I think the ships harpoon should be needed to "hunt" larger stuff like Megs, Sharks, and Kraken or you don't get the bonus meat or trophies. I think they should also add stuff like catching crabs with an animal crate, and maybe some land hunting like large boars that can gore you so you have to fight them and maybe go after rare birds with your sniper (if you get too close they fly away) and their meat gives rewards and different commendations and loot plus normal food. Maybe even a "Rare" giant keg chicken covered in wooden armor planks and rope that you have to shoot before it can get close enough to you and blow up ruining the meat and trophy. It goes without saying that there would be accommodation rewards and over time cosmetic unlocks for all of that. Kill 100 kraken's to get the fishing pole of the south china sea that instantly strips all fish in an area or something (ok that was a troll but you get what I mean).

[@jppf91]

They could add megalodon quests instead of events, where we would fight several megs in 4 diferent spots on the map and have a skelly meg would be like a boss that would summon ghost sharks that would kamikaze the ship. In the end we would get chests with fishing gear that we could then sell and a lot of rare fishes.

[@ridley6978]

At current, the emissary system does not fit in with hunters call. There is not enough loot that is sellable to reapers hideout that makes them a worthy target to reapers. The flag and potential mermaid gems pales in comparison to the loot you can get for hunting other emissaries. On the topic of a Hunter’s Call update, three things come to my mind. One: A hunt voyage for either a Megalodon or Kraken. Maybe a kraken was sighted and you have to follow ink trails. I also like the idea of adding a bucket you can fill with fish and then throw into water as chum to attract larger beasts. Two: A revamped cooking system with allows for the combination of foods to make dishes that sell for greater prices that their ingredients alone. I imagine just being able to place multiple foods on the cooking pan. If you combine the wrong ingredients, you get something burnt, and if you combine certain ingredients correctly, then you get your dish. This could come with a voyage too, to find specific ingredients and make a few dishes. Three: my final idea is a daily fishing quests, and/or hotspots. Each in game day or so, there could be a quest at a seaport to being back 5-10 of a certain fish. The quest is different at each seaport and a new quest is posted after a certain amount of time. Hotspots would be like “oh theres a bunch a ocean wildsplashes out by sunken grove” or something similar.

fun fact bait boxes are now real

[@margaretballinger2484]

Made my first mil and maxed out my first faction in Hunter's mostly via rowboat. Regional fish do bring lots of money, especially if you sell during golden hour. (Gems and collector chests too) It's a little secret among us fanatical fishers. I miss the fishing tournament, the voyage where we have to catch regional fish off a certain island. To tie in with the fish crate idea, how about voyages to purchase from Hunter's? There could be a lower faction level order to deliver raw meats/fish to the shipwrights, and a higher tier voyage to deliver cooked food to the taverns. And a legendary voyage to deliver devilfish to the Shores of Plenty and vice-versa. Like the merchant trade routes, the taverns could have a logbook of what meats/fish they need, and how much they are willing to pay based on how far away one has to sail to fetch the food. Such as Morrows would pay more for chicken & pork. Since most of the mechanics are already in the game it should add much load on the servers.

i think there should not be a specific hunters call world event, but meg and kraken meat sell for a lot more, but are now items like treasure chests/skulls. you can only pick up one at a time, but you can still cook it as usual. so now world events will have some megalodon or kraken meat in them as well, since world events have loot for every faction except hunters call

[@CaptainThunder-Crash]

I entirely agree with and completely, utterly and one hundred percently support these amazing ideas! Let's have a rolling megalodon event too or even quests, like bounties to hunt sharks and maybe other creatures like giant crabs! As well as other fish there could be jellies and sea stars too! Love your ideas Captain Falcore!

[@satinleader00]

Fun fact about Hunter's Call... they take mermaid and siren gems, as well as empty treasure and coral treasure chests. Provides more rep per gem than hours and hours of fishing. But the downside is it doesn't progress the commendations for fishing.

[@Stormtrooper990]

I could easily play this game alone in the thought of being a Myth hunter. Just finding and killing all the big creatures for glory and honor!

[@joebeet2696]

A voyage that focuses on killing Megaladons and Krakens is a must. Two cool elements of SoT that people try to ignore as they're easily avoided, award no loot, and should be more epic!

[@leothelion1088]

well, we got the bait crate, so at least thats one thing lol

[@ElectricFury]

I want not only fishing voyages but also the long voyage (like vault, shipwreck etc.) should be about HUNTING down a beast. Have a guaranteed Meg / Kraken spawn (or a new sea monster???) at the end of a multiple step voyage tracking down the remains of a fishing vessel that never returned.

[@Oooze3424]

I've always felt like there should be a figurehead that's just a severed kraken tentacle tied to the front of the ship. maybe it can even have a rotten recolored version that makes it muddy brown and bog green.

[@big_trout4766]

I think if they were to add a hunters call representative to new golden sands, I think a fish market or something would work well as the area for them, kinda like the gold hoarder bank

[@kileytingey6828]

As high as you are, I'd love hunter's call voyages because somedays I just like to hunt and fish and have nobody bother me

[@zeth2195]

They added the bait box

[@Lily.Hiragashi]

I think it is hilarious that Falcore just blacked out the “hunter of the shrouded ghost” commendation lmao

[@0utbreakGaming]

Making figureheads out of the heads of megalodons would be nice too. At least it would be another reason to hunt them down or even stop to kill them when they ambush you rather then sailing on by them.

[@gabrielaguiar309]

It would be cool to have a quest system similar to the gold hoarder's, you get a map with the island, fish spot and number of fish needed, a simple quest with the number of fish and for the equivalent quest to a treasure vault a map with a zone to hunt a megalodon or a kraken

[@potatopog2479]

as someone who grinded for legendary hunter and is now going for all fishing trinkets i would really like a hunters call update

[@molyember164]

I think the game needs an overall wildlife update. Maybe they could introduce the sperm whale as a similar encounter to the megalodon but it would be much harder to defeat and it would drop the most valuable meat in the game. I also think it would be great to introduce some type of tracking voyages where you have to track sea monsters and find clues about their location similar to lost shipment voyages. They could also introduce some kind of land animal on larger islands like some sort of miniboss encounter.

[@xmshkx144]

Im with you on this, i love fishing and searching shipwrecks for fish, i even have one quest left from the event way back, i held onto it for some odd reason. We need a serious update to Hunters Call, it would make it fun to grind for more rep

[@OddNess9339]

I've said it before to friends, comments on different KZbin videos, and I will say it again here. The best way to update the hunters call is to increase reputation from 50 to 75. And to add targeted monster Hunt's. These missions would specifically spawn a megalodon or kraken at a specific point in the ocean that drop special loot that can only be gotten from them, similar to how ghost ships drop damned items. Not only would it make hunters call less boring but would also give incentive for PVP players to hunt down people who are doing megalodon and kraken missions. I think an emissary flag would just be a little bit too much, but then again unless they drastically increased the rate in which Hunter's call levels it would be the only way to counteract the hunters called getting a higher reputation cap.

[@themostexpendable]

Traps and nets. Personally I want to be able to set up big nets and traps that gather fish and crabs/lobsters over time. And the value would be based on weight. Imagine stealing someone else’s massive haul of crustaceans. Also if you drop crabs they run around on deck pinching you. So you have to smash them with a hammer. Could be kind of funny.

[@Fizzbaine]

A minor correction to your video, you can also sell any Mermaid or Siren Gems to Hunter's Call for money and reputation. I found this much quicker than just selling meat or fish. Happy hunting!
