As soon as you crash land onto the unknown beach at the start of Windrose, a massive world of content is waiting for you to unveil. While you might be eager to breeze through the opening act to get your first ship and start sailing the open seas, there is plenty to do on land as well. One of the most notable early activities you can undertake is the Fifteen Men On A Dead Man's Chest quest.
How to Trigger the Fifteen Men On A Dead Man's Chest Quest
This side quest doesn't seem overly complicated on the surface, but it is far from a simple fetch quest. To begin the adventure, you must explore the coastline immediately following the game's opening sequence.
To find the start of the journey, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the beach where you initially crash land in Windrose.
- Search through the shipwreck salvage located along the shoreline.
- Locate a specific chest that contains a mysterious letter.
Tracking Your Progress in Windrose
Finding the letter is just the beginning of the Fifteen Men On A Dead Man's Chest adventure. Once you have collected the letter from the shipwreck, the quest will be officially added to your active logs.
If you need to review your objectives or check for updates, you can view the quest in your journal by pressing the "J" key. Keeping a close eye on your tasks is essential as you prepare to navigate the many mysteries of the island.
