Some of these quests provide direct map locations, while others provide hints and tips. The “Fifteen Men On A Dead Man’s Chest” quest tells you where to go, but when you arrive, there’s just a group of skeletons lying around on the floor.

To complete this quest, you need to unlock and craft a shovel. This is done by smelting a Copper Ore into a Copper Bar in the Furnace and then picking up the Copper Bar. This unlocks several recipes, including the shovel.

Once you have the shovel, head to the location shown on the map. You’ll notice that the skeleton bodies actually form a small circle. Use the shovel to dig in the center of that circle to reveal a treasure chest.

Once you have looted the chest, the quest will be completed.

Windrose features a number of mechanics that are tied to unlocking new materials and progressing to new technologies. Firstly, you can discover blueprints and recipes to unlock new items. Secondly, some can be unlocked via quest progress and lastly, discovering materials and items unlocks related recipes.

To unlock the Shovel recipe, you need to find Copper Ore. The world of Windrose is procedurally generated, so your islands and locations will be different to ours.

Every starting island has a Copper Cave somewhere. It’s a very large rock formation with an entrance that leads to an instanced cave. Once you get close, the ? on the map will change to a mining icon.

Once you have the Copper Ore, simply use the Furnace to smelt the Copper Ore into a Copper Bar. Once you remove the Copper Bar from the Furnace, you will unlock the Shovel recipe.

If you are struggling to find the Copper Cave on your island, follow the tutorial quests. One of them will take you directly to the cave, so you don’t have to worry about finding it.

Rosalinda Mercer

Rosalinda is a fantastic addition to your crew. She brings two powerful crafting bonuses. Master Bottle Maker (which doubles Clay Bottle production) and Talented Alchemist (which provides a 30% bonus to craft additional Elixirs). Clay Bottles are a vital component for healing supplies later in the game, so she’s well worth recruiting.

She can be found in Tortuga and costs 500 Piastre.

Jasper Crowe

Jasper Crowe is another very strong addition to your crew, offering a 30% chance of returning materials when upgrading armor at camp.

Jasper Crowe can also be found in Tortuga and will join your crew for 500 Piastre.

Black Axel

Food plays a huge role in Windrose, so having access to a skilled chef is a massive help. Black Axel has a 30% chance to craft an additional meal every time you cook. This includes cooking multiple of the same dishes.

Black Axel will join for 500 Piastre and can be found at the People of Tortuga’s main camp (this is not on Tortuga, it was a nearby island for us).

Mortar Joe

Mortar Joe is one crew member you will want to wait until later to recruit. His 30% chance to craft additional Gunpowder is another great trait, but you won’t gain access to Gunpowder until the later stages of the game.

He can be recruited for 500 Piastra and can be found at Brethren of the Coast main base.

Windrose features a procedurally generated game world, so your world and locations will not be the same as ours. However, the game features quest chains that directs the player to most of the locations, such as the Underground Network quest.

Almost all quests in Windrose start the same way. Exploring “?” locations on items, inspecting important clues (marked by a clear shining special effect), and looting items into Curios before adding them to your journal.

The Underground Network quest is the same. You find a smuggler’s camp that has been ransacked, and once you inspect all of the details at the location, the quest begins.

It’s important to understand that Tortuga is a central hub for buying items and exchanging reputation items. The Buyers, the NPC’s who buy the items from the player, are not in Tortuga. They are on the main base islands for their respective factions.

Below is a list of each faction and what it purchases.

Rogue Buccaneers

Brethren Of The Coast

Smugglers Of Port Royal

People Of Tortuga
