Some datamining speculation on unlocking CORFollow

A few quest items added with the last update caught my eye that might be related to COR and possibly unlocking it.

Forgotten Hexagun - An old hexagun found in Talacca Cove. It is broken and unusable.

and

Bag of Gold Pieces - This bag is so heavy that it requires two hands to carry from one place to another. There must be a fortune inside...

The first item is self explanatory. COR use hexaguns, so the quest might involve finding this hexagun in Talacca Cove (wherever that is) and bringing it back to the quest NPC. As for the bag of gold, maybe the NPC requires payment or "booty" to refine the gun into a functional weapon.

Keep in mind this is purely speculation, but this would put to rest the questions about why we don't get a gun until level 15. If the Forgotten Hexagun is turned into a level 1 gun (given to you when you unlock the job), then we'd actually be able to use our abilities.

Just a thought

well you dont get the hexagun abilitys until later in the job so at the beggining it will just be a rare/ex first gun for cor and maybe to get the gun you gotta kill the skeleton or the soul of this guy the corsairs all followed which abviously is like the legend of the last drg *meh* just speculation really but fighting an NM for the gun and possibly the gold

The Cave you mentioned does not ring any bells...and if I remember right didnt SE say that the new jobs could be unlocked without having the pervious two expansions? Perhaps new area on the expansion itself? No clue, but thank you for finding that info as its the only info so far to be posted on/or relating to Corsair Flag Quest.

Talacca Cove is a new area being added with the expansion. I'm guessing it's somewhere in the Arrapago Reef area (another area being added, home of the Lamiae and undead by the looks of it). The area kinda reminds me of Sea Serpent's Grotto, and judging by the screenshots I've seen, it looks likely that Corsair is related to the area (what with pirate ships and "treasure troves").

Personally i think SeaSerpantsG will probobly have a lot to do with COR.

Lets face it; Norg feels much more like a pirate town that it does a Ninja / Samurai place.

Hell, it looks like the treasure cove in PotC: the Black Pearl...

I had a thought while I was at work, what if those items are for an AF1 quest, maybe an AF hexagun? I just kinda seems like AF items to me.

It looks like you need to find the Forgotten Hexagun, as someone just posted the dialog for the quest and you need to find an item in Talacca Cove.

I like the idea that it'll be turned into a lvl 1 hexagun, cause I was looking forward to lvling marksmenship at a low lvl, as I have none >.>;

Happy hunting all, can't do it till Sun, so counting on you all to confirm this ~.^
