The State of Arcane Odyssey During The Great Drought

“Congrats Hobbes you’re getting promoted”

–me 15 minutes after the update drops

My god I hope the fleet thing alone is enough to cover it’s own costs. Would you be able to lose your deckhands? Can they desert from you?

Yeah, I’m pretty sure in the video it said that if you don’t give them the proper conditions they can desert or rebel

low supplies will cause that but they give you a warning when that happens

Oh hell naw. I don’t wanna think about permanently losing them from the fleet system.

At least desertions can only happen when you’re in-game but unfocused, right? Severe things like that can’t happen offline, can they?

Depends on if the Fleet System works offline (I think it doesn’t). If it doesn’t, then you’re fine. If it does… good luck.

They also might not give you those reminders when you’re in the Dark Sea, so there’s a chance that happens while you cannot tell it was happening.

I think that only followers can desert but im not a tester so idk

You know, we felt the same way about WoM to AO…, after this, we’ll finally be free again

If I come back after disconnecting from a dark sea expedition and see that my top deckhand just deserted I’m ending it all right then and there

you don’t NEED to buy the fleet tiers, they progress on their own if the fleet is doing that

most of the fleet content should be unlockable with a few caravels or ketches and a low level deckhand with minimal royalty as the progress offline

Yeah I’d rather it be through experience type of levelling instead of plain old “hey give me the entire gdp of a small african micronation and I’ll get some new clothes” type of levelling

edward… you are my labubu
enizor… my matcha
morden… my dubai rave
evander… my little funko pop

Hey come out to the inconspicuous back street with a conveniently placed dumpster real quick

Watch me capture Heavily armored grand navy brig and add it into my fleet




You can always bring back your deckhand from Command ship if you dismiss them (if there is free space for deckhands on your ship)

unrelated but your deckhand only need Dedicated Loyalty


theres also this just incase people are worried about their fleet deserting when theyre unable to take care of it

Another Bonus: Command ship can’t be deserted and Atlantean ship can’t be captured

huh does that mean deckhands cannot be lost?

or do they die if a ship sinks
