    Need some more Exploration Points for an upgrade? Well you can farm them! I'm sure some of you guys know this, but check it out!

    First off, you will have to go to your Map:

    Next, tell your ship to go around your base while STAYING IN THE LIGHT BLUE SECTION. (Explained below)

    Start the voyage! As you can see, each section will take 6 seconds each to complete. That's 6 seconds per EP! Not a bad ratio :)

    Journey Complete, and Exploration Points gained!

    Bonus:
    You will, on occasion, get a Gold/Grog reward while sailing. There will be an icon in your wake telling you to collect resources that weren't there a second ago :)


    Again, I'm sure some of you have done this, but I just thought it was cool, and wanted to share :)

    It's also a fast way to farm some gems :). I do it a lot after my map is fully explored at my ship level.

    See the world, they said.
    I'd rather be sailing"

    Then came scurvy.

    You should have included some lady pirates to get you lads eating the fruit!

    Exploring the whole map to 100% should get you around 100k EP by then you have no need for it lol

    looool:D I have never thought of this. Don't really need it now though since I already upgraded my lighthouse to lvl 3, but this would have been very useful.
    Thx for the tip man! :)

    If s block is on an island it will be uncovered when the rest of the island is discovered.

    I think this technique is better for gem farming than gaining EP, simply because to pay for most of the higher level BP-requiring upgrades, you must explore and hunt monsters. It would take a lot of 1-9 minute light water trips to equal the EP gained in just one 12-15 hour overnight journey.
