Some ideas...

There should be a new quest that you can complete during the late level 30's and through the 40's that gives a lot of notoriety.

Care to suggest as to what that may be for higher level pirates?

Makes sense to implement the elusive Chapter Two at Notoriety 30 along with Raven Cove's. It would also unlock after the pirate completes Chapter One. I don't think they'll increase the standard rep rewards for completing quests though. Much of them can be gotten by merely killing and sinking every enemy one encounters from point A to point B.

That's why they designed those quests like that from the beginning and the longest of these, namely, The Black Pearl [ aka Chapter One ] served as a guide for newcomers on how to basically play the game. Every pirate had to sink and slay all enemies as specified. Some were captured and then dropped off at a wild island. Pirates had to play Blackjack and Poker. Pirates had to search for dig spots. Pirates had to explore the inward parts of these islands that had them. None of them were that hard and they were not meant to since it was, and is after all, a Basic Course.

That would lead to what we need most, Chapter Two, which is an Advance Course. New enemies [or tougher ones] to slay/sink and new islands to explore or rediscover as new caves, hidden passages, swamps, jungles, deserts, towns, fortresses, etc., are unveiled before our eyes. The quests involved will be more challenging and will require pirates to even get Infamy Points and Rare Ship materials! Hopefully the story explaining Davy Jones involvement will make it more entertaining as we inch our way to finally slaying that Kraken of his!!!

There's another thing I'd like to point out that I noticed since my return to the game. For some reason though, these older quests were shortened tremendously between 2010 and 2011. And one thing I also noticed is how our pirates continue to earn reps after they mastered their weapon skills. Wasn't like that at all before. They even took away those 25 reps every one earned when they won treasure. That really hurt Basics big time. Hurt Unlimiteds too if you think about it. Those treasures only give gold now.

tsk tsk, PiratesOnline is a war game primarily meant to eliminate enemies, not a carnival cruise to safely play dolly with.

To get it straight, This is how chapters are (I think)

CHPTR.1=Rambleshack (Tutorial)
CHPTR.2=Black Pearl Story Quest
CHPTR.3=Ravens Cove Story Quest

Quick suggestion:
Make El Patron a Treasure Map!
(he will drop random loot when defeated after the first time)


EDIT: Maybe El Patron could only drop cursed swords, like foulberto only drops knives.
