Anyone found the key at sanctuary outpost?

  • Talk to tyler he says he left a key at the outpost that unlocks a door under water near wanderers refuge.

    When I get home I'll edit post with actual dialog.

    Edit

    "Have we met before then?"

    Bob was telling me about that cunning plan you were working on.

    Something about a special chest and the gold hoarders, wasn't it?

    "Anything good in stock?"

    Your friend sold me one of those things you invented together

    You know, the thing that opens any door, like you did under the water near wanderers refuge.

    Its around here somewhere, I'm sure it is...

    Er, sorry... I must have put it down in the outpost somewhere.

  • @rdizz There are a number of NPCs that hint at secret treasure, but haven't been able to dig up more info.

    Has anyone found the door that gets unlocked?

    A cave underneath wanderers with a weird object has been confirmed.

  • i notice you find skulls hidden on islands with the gold hoarders symbols on them (which is a key) wonder if connected at all

  • @rdizz Hmm so either its really well hidden secret content of some kind or its not in the game yet. I hope one but am afraid of the other.

    I feel like if the NPCs are referencing specific things then they 'should' be already in the game. Assuming thats true there has to be a pretty good hiding place on the outpost somewhere.

    I've kinda climbed all over every building and havent seen anything, though I wasn't specifically looking. I'll head in there after work and give it a thorough exploration.

  • This is interesting. I'll share with my group too and see if we find anything.

    Could be buried.

  • to show what i mean, i am not saying it's definitely connected

  • @mcdougle99 These are from the E3 event. Relics of past live events before launch. (ie. don't waste your time with them now imho)

    Added:
    @mcdougle99 Yup - from E3 - you lined up the keys found in the world that were the same and it led you to a location where there was treasure. (the first known shipwreck). If you were fast enough to find it you won real world prizes which I suspect will be the main drive behind this game in the near future.

    Just the skulls not the info tyler gives correct ?

  • @rdizz added a bit to my above post to help out.

  • @coolerbravo said in Anyone found the key at sanctuary outpost?:

    @rdizz added a bit to my above post to help out.

    I'm still a bit confused. Are you saying the dialog from the vendors are also relics from e3? Or just the skulls as posted above?

  • @rdizz No no - All I'm saying is those skulls (picture above) are from E3. If that's the object you see, disregard it. If you found something else COOL! I'd love to help out!

    Ok cool, let the hunt continue! Lol

    If anyone is on currently be cool to post the actual text tyler says?

  • @rdizz Interesting! I hadn't noticed that. Now you have me very curious.

  • @ionei-falcon said in Anyone found the key at sanctuary outpost?:

    @rdizz Interesting! I hadn't noticed that. Now you have me very curious.

    I mean the game is literally about treasure hunting. It will shock me if this turns out to be empty dialog :(

  • Updated op

  • @rdizz So.... What if a fort key can actually be used to open some other weird door on an outpost?
    Maybe someone already tried but if not.... Go and try it! :P

    But seriously though, if you find more info you should share it so we can all figure this out together! :o

  • My 1st mate and I spent an entire session looking for it. no luck here

  • @rdizz hmm I may give this some attention...

    Could be buried who knows may be absolutely nothing as well... either way worth a shot.

    This isn't in the game yet it comes out with either the Hungering Deep update or the Cursed Sails update don't remember which one. Nice find though.

    Citation needed.

    Any validation to that claim?

  • Seems like a job for me, gonna start digging up the whole outpost!

  • @rdizz This is definitely interesting. It was briefly mentioned in one of the sea of thieves behind the scenes videos that they were working on putting things in place to allow dynamic changes to NPC's and their speech in order to reference or hint at in game events etc. (see link below) So this key could be something they are lining up to do with their future content updates perhaps. The first one being the Hungering Deep! :)

  • Honestly guys, I think this exchange might just be idle banter.

    The implication here is that you and a "friend" have invented a key that unlocks anything, which sounds pretty OP.
    But more to the point, the NPC uses past tense to describe opening a door near Wanderer's Refuge, so why would the game encourage you to go back there?

    NPCs will eventually be able to provide some kind of alternative quests, or more interaction between them, but I'm not entirely convinced this is part of that system.

    Yet...

    True, but it's not "your" friend he almost seems like he is confusing you with someone else if you read the entire dialog. Suggesting that he slipped up and gave you info you were not supposed to have. Maybe just maybe something is hidden somewhere on that God forsaken outpost.

  • I think sadly it's empty blather. I been looking for it for a while, there is a bar tender that tells you that someone buried their treasure on the outpost even but won't give you any clues where it is.

    Sadly it all feels like it was just added diolog to flush out the NPCs or be placeholder's for stuff to be added later.

  • @jimmy-voorhees lets check it out

  • Any updates, maybe we need to form a digging party. I tried to search it last night. But first took me a while to get there when I did was spawn camped until I had to scuttle. Left rejoined sailed back to start digging and well.... yup rinse repeat lol.

    Wondering if anyone had any luck? I did find a bag full of mail for captain I forget from the pioneers though. Pretty neat.

    This of course is very possible and its another "nms portal hunt" but hey it's worth a shot. You never know...

    Take a look at your Order Of Souls commendations while in-game. You'll notice there's one for killing 10 skeleton crews, which doesn't come until Cursed Sails update, but has been in the commendation list since launch.

    It's entirely possible that this will be included in The Hungering Deep.

    What does this have to do with the vendor dialog? I mean I see your point... but its unrelated. Sort of lol
