Rising Tide : Did I understand it wrongly that Sea Monsters would have had Maritime Trade Cargo ?

in General Discussions
While fishing, I have been bugged and had to kill tons of Sea Serpents of any kind.

I understood that since the Rising Tide publish, they would have had Maritime Trade Cargo in their loot.

Did I understand it as wrong ?

I killed TONS of them and have yet to get 1......

    I got a few of the maritime trade cargo from water elementals while at sea on Origin last week.  Have not yet gotten any on Sonoma this week.  Have not gotten any of the cargo from sea serpents or krakens on either shard.

    It's not in their "loot", it's a drop in your backpack when you kill them.

    Yeah, you definitely know when you have one in your backpack.  They're hard to miss.

    To my understanding, it is the ones that spawn around the plunder beacon, i am not sure the ones you fish up will have them in their loot table.

    Well, I have been killing TONS during fishing and no drop so far....

    And when I say tons, I mean like 30-50+ since Rising Tide was published... all Sea Serpents though...

    I can confirm you get them from Sea Serpents, Deep Sea Serpents, Water Elementals, and Kraken that are already spawned on the water, as I have received lots from these while fighting pirates and beacons, even if a beacon wasn't nearby. However, as @Victim_Of_Siege pointed out, it's possible the ones fished up do not have the same loot table.

    That matches what I've seen so far, i.e., they come from spawn near the plunder beacons.

    I suspect that, if you have gotten yours killing Sea Monsters that spawned while fighing Pirates and Merchants, while I have been killing those spawning when fishing, that those spawning when fishing do NOT have the same loot table as those that spawn when fighting Merchand and Pirate Ships.

    Otherwise, I would not understand why you got Maritime Trade Cargo drops and I got none.

    My experience, so far, tells that you might be right.

    It should not be like that, though.

    ALL Sea Monsters spawning should get them as drop, whether near the Plunder beacons or when fishing.....

    If you feel this is wrong or in error, then submit a bug report and also suggest to Kyronix to add the maritime chests to the fished up sea monster loot table.

    @Kyronix , could we please get a comment on this issue ?

    The cargo is available from creatures on/near the plunderbeacons, the plunderbeacon lighthouse, merchant ships/pirate ships and their crew.

    Thank you very much for the clarification.

    It would be nice, though, if also those Serpents pulled off from fishing could get the Maritime Trade Cargo....

    Could you please consider such an addition ?
