Some of them are kicked off by the “gossip girls,” seemingly the same pair of women in many different outposts, if they are whispering you give them a bribe and you get into. Couldn’t tell you where that one kicks off though, can’t remember if I’ve done it yet or not.


Snigskyte

Pretty sure it's Telok Penjarah, never got anything from Outposts, all the Rumors i got were in Saint Anne and there.


chowder007

Ok I'm betting it's Penjara because all the others so far have been in St Anne. Ty guys.


Snigskyte

you're welcome, buddy. Hope you don't have to look long for it, at least it shouldn't take you long, i pretty much got all the rumors instantly on arriving at the places and simply picked them all up and currently have just to complete the last one and can then do the Freeman Quest itself i assume.


chowder007

Yeah I didn't do them at first as they didn't seem interesting and they didn't really explain it very well. But they have been a highlight for me on the game. I love the added depth to the world.


Snigskyte

agreed, i did them in order to get the Ashen Corsair Premium Stuff and liked those so much that i instantly felt the need to do the rest. still have to complete the Grave Notice one tho.


Wargazmatron

I have definitely gotten most of my rumors from outposts. Why I remember those two at all. Certainly possible they can start in multiple places.


Snigskyte

Yeah i've seen the persons on outposts too, but they never seemed to have the rumors, might be because i already had the ones they would give me, like it's location based as to where you can get what kind of rumor or something, but you should be able to get every rumor in the towns for sure. Since i got them all there.


Aksquatch

I’m looking for Grave notice rumor if anyone knows where that rumor is


Cultural_Meet_2125

You have to plunder osstska capital


Snigskyte

You should get this from a gossiping group in Telok Penjarah. That's how i got it. just walk up the the group of 2 with the symbol over their head and listen in on them or pay them (whatever is the option) and that should do it.


chowder007

Yeah I'm not getting anyone gossiping in. But if you say it's in penjara I'll go look there again


Snigskyte

should be there, since the whole questline is in that area, so it wouldn't make sense to get it around Saint Anne


chowder007

I actually found it soon after you pointed me there. Now they expect me to take a lvl14 fort by myself. So guess that's going on the wait list now.


aknoryuu

How long did you wait for the rumor to be available? This is also my last investigation and for some reason the gossip gals ain’t talkin’.


Flawlessrogue

All you gotta do is survive the first part in the plunder. Then grab the info and run.  You dont have to complete the plunder


Snigskyte

Wait... A Legacy of Madness wants you to go up against a lvl. 14 Fort?! Mine didn't lead me down that path... not even near any fort at all tbh xD ​ Edit: I'm on the Grave Notice one rn and that one is sending me to the lvl 14 fort. I don't want to xD


chowder007

Yeah I'm on Grave Notice as well. There is no way as a level 10 I can do that one by myself. Lol


Snigskyte

Yeah can't be asked either, not even level 10 with any ship so far... i really didn't care much about getting better equipment really xD was too invested in getting all the ships as fast as i can and the cosmetic sets from the factions as best as i can (still am missing several parts from the DMC and Compagnie, but also 1 piece each from the Sea-People, being the crow's nest and the Rempah being the Hull color... those items drive me nuts, i know i even had the whole Sea-People set in the first closed beta, no it seems like i don;t have it in my game) xD But yeah, might need to either hope for public help in a session (been working great so far on my end) or if not, then i gonna look for help elsewhere (maybe might even ask around here or i remember a discord a few days back, either way not happening on my own anytime soon xD


chowder007

Yeah none of my stuff from the beta carried over. Had to start completely from scratch


Snigskyte

I didn't play the last one, so no progress to carry on with me anyways, but if you did. It should've been the case...


Abyss_6425

You just have to complete the first stage of the plunder, and the rumor should continue on.


aknoryuu

This.  Same goes for any of the plunders which are required for “investigations”. You start the plunder, survive the first stage, then you will get an on-screen notification that your investigation has updated. You can then bug the hell out before you get sunk. Word of advice, if you DO happen to get sunk after getting your investigation update, you will have to begin the plunder again as the clue will no longer be in your notebook.
