Treasures are Transportable Items that can sold to Trading Companies in exchange for Gold, Doubloons, Reputation and Emissary Value.

Mechanics

Treasure is transported by carrying in the player's hands or aboard a ship/rowboat. A player can only hold one treasure at one time no matter its size, and cannot fight or use any equipment or resources while they are carrying treasure. Most small treasures can be placed inside Container Chests for easier transportation and delivery. This also hides any emitted glow, glint or sounds a treasure emits. Container Chests can carry up to three small treasures.

Harpoons can be used for quick retrieval of treasure from a distance, such as from land or floating in water.

Any treasure that has been picked up and dropped again will eventually despawn if left untouched. If dropped on land, the treasure will stay there for as long as possible (approximately two hours). If dropped in open water, most treasure will sink after about five minutes of floating, with the exception of Trade Good Crates, which have been found to stay afloat for fifteen minutes.

While players are sailing as a Trading Company Emissary and touch a treasure related to that company for the first time, it will reward Emissary Grade progression. The crew will receive additional grade progression by placing the treasure on their ship for the first time.

Where to find

Each Trading Company have certain types of treasure associated with them. Players can sell these treasures to those Companies in return for rewards. The Company Representatives offer purchasable voyages that task players with quests leading to these treasures.

Treasures will have a colored glint or glow surrounding them so that players can spot them and identify their type from afar.

In addition to voyages, treasure can also be found from (but not limited to) the following sources:

Types of Treasure

Treasures are often grouped by the Trading Company that cherishes them most. Treasures within these groups often have different variants, appearing similar but with slight unique differences: Regular, Devil's Roar or Ashen, Stronghold or Skeletal and Ghostly. The type of variant can depend on where or how they are found, but can also be found at random.

Gold Hoarders Treasure

The following are the treasure that can be sold to the Gold Hoarders Trading Company on any Outpost for Gold and Reputation.

Treasure Chests

Main article: Treasure Chest

Treasure Chests are unbreakable and locked Chests of Treasure that are sold to the Gold Hoarders, who have the Keys to open these Chests, for a margin of their contents. Moreover, Treasure Chests can be found as a part of Gold Hoarder Voyages, Treasure Maps and Riddle Maps, or randomly across The Sea of Thieves. Treasure Chests emit a White Glint from a distance. There are six types of Treasure Chests: Regular, Barnacled, Coral, Ashen, Valuable and Cursed Treasure Chests:

  • Regular Treasure Chests have no distinct qualities to them.
  • Barnacled or Shipwrecked Treasure Chests are damaged versions of regular Treasure Chests that can be usually found underwater or on the seas. These sell for the same amount as their regular counterparts.
  • Coral Treasure Chests are coral-encrusted versions of the Regular Chests that are found only in Siren Shrines And Siren Treasuries.
  • Ashen Treasure Chests are molten versions of regular Treasure Chests. These are most commonly found in The Devil's Roar and can be sold for almost double the price of their regular counterparts.
  • Valuable Chests that are specific to various Encounters on the seas
  • Cursed Treasure Chests are tied to specific Locations or have specific Effects tied to them and are generally very valuable.

Artefacts

Main article: Artefacts

Artefacts are small treasures found either on their own, or hidden away in select Container Chests. They can only be sold to the Gold Hoarders, or at the Reaper's Hideout. There are four variety groups of Artefacts:

  • Regular Artefacts are a selection of small Containers, Boxes or Ornaments made out of valuable metals and gems. These Trinkets emit a Golden Glint from a distance. They share their pricing tiers with Treasure Chests.
  • Devil's Roar Artefacts, which have an Orange Glint to them and are covered in the red hot gems of the Roar. Generally more valuable than regular versions.
  • Ashen Artefacts, which are found as a part of The Seabound Soul Tall Tale. These look almost exactly the same as Devil's Roar Artefacts, except they sell for very little.
  • Coral Artefacts are coral-encrusted versions of some of the Regular Artefacts that are found only in Siren Shrines And Siren Treasuries.

Treasure Vault Keys

Main article: Treasure Vault Keys

Treasure Vault Keys are small Totems that lead and open Gold Hoarders Treasure Vaults hidden away on Large Islands. These Keys can be acquired through Wayfinder Voyages offered by Gold Hoarders. There are 5 types of Totem keys, each appearing in 3 different materials - Stone, Silver and Gold. The Totem of the key determines the location of the Vault, the material of the Key determines the value of the Key and the loot in the Vault, as well as the difficulty of the Vault.

Dark Relics (Legacy)

Main article: Dark Relics

Dark Relics were various Relics related to dark Rituals that were stolen from the Order by Skeletons. The Order of Souls requested the help of the Bilge Rats during the Dark Relics Event, who offered Pirates Dark Relic Voyages for a limited time to retrieve these valuables. After the event, most of the Dark Relics are now kept safe by the Order and Bilge Rats, who have attempted to use these Items for various rituals and thus are no longer found on the Seas.

Merchant Alliance Goods

The following are the Treasures that can be sold to the Merchant Alliance Trading Company on any Outpost for Gold and Reputation.

Players can use the Pocket Watch to keep track of the date and time.

Captured Animals

Main article: Animal Crates

The Merchant Alliance values wild animals as a commodity and as such commissions Merchant Voyages by giving players the necessary Animal Crates for capturing and delivering them to a certain location in a certain amount of time. These Animals need to be caught in their respective Crate to be sold. Empty Animal Crates cannot be sold. The Animals themselves can be found roaming around on Islands. There are four variations of each Animal, each fetching a different price. Note that any Animals that are captured without a commission from the Merchant Alliance will fetch a very small reward. There are three types of Animals that the Merchant Alliance is looking for:

  • Chickens, who are tame, slow and easy to capture.
  • Snakes, who are wild and can inflict poison damage if not first calmed by playing instruments.
  • Pigs, who are active, quick and become hungry if not fed food every now and then.

Explosives

Main article: Explosives

Gunpowder Barrels are explosives that can either be used to blow up Ships and Enemies, set Fires or be sold to any Merchant Alliance Traders instead. Without a Commission, Gunpowder Kegs don't sell for very much, but every now and then, Players may find Merchant Voyages with a deadline, requesting Kegs aside the usual Animals, in which case they are willing to pay ten times the regular amount for regular Kegs. Gunpowder Barrel requisitions can also be found from single Trade Good Commissions from around the Seas. Gunpowder Barrels can generally be found on Fortress Islands or among Barrels of Plenty or Shipwrecks. These can also be retrieved from Gunpowder Skeletons. There are currently two types of Gunpowder Barrels:

Resource Crates

These Crates do not have delivery deadlines, commissions, Commendations nor any specific Voyages related to them, however, they fetch an above average Gold and Reputation reward from Merchant Alliance Representatives. There are three categories of Trade Good Crates:

  • Regular colored Crates of your valuable Trade Goods, available all over the seas.
  • Goods from The Devil's Roar, closed in darker-shade crates that still burn with embers that are more likely to spawn in the Roar.
  • The Crate of Ancient Bone Dust, which only appears in Fortress Vaults and is the most valuable Crate.

These Crates are mostly picked up from and delivered to various NPCs on Outposts, Seaposts and Large Islands. Cargo Crates need to be handled in a specific way to preserve their condition. If mishandled, the condition of these Crates will worsen, which also results in a smaller Gold payout from the Merchant Alliance. There are three types of Cargo Crates, which each have a regular and a Devil's Roar version (the Roar versions are even more fragile, but are worth twice as much as the regular versions):

  • Crate of Luxurious Cloth - These Crates of intricately woven Cloth require to be kept away from any sources of Water, or they will start rotting.
  • Crate of Rum Bottles - These Crates of fragile Rum Bottles need to be kept away from any sources of Damage, or they will develop cracks and eventually break.

The Hunter's Call Food and Plunder

The following items are valuable only to The Hunter's Call Trading Company, who are primarily found stationed on Seaposts.

Food

Fish

There are various species of fish all over The Sea of Thieves that can be fished with a Fishing Rod. Each species of Fish live in specific Locations and may be interested in a specific type of Bait. There are five variations of each species of fish, with varying rarities or conditions. The rarer the fish, the more Gold and Reputation they are worth. Larger Trophy variants of each fish are harder to catch, but are also worth more. Cooking any fish on a stove or a campfire increases their value (unless they become burnt, after which they are worth significantly less). Perfectly cooked fish fetch the most Gold and Reputation. Fish can sometimes be found in barrels in shipwrecks, Barrels of Plenty or Skeleton Ships.

There are 10 species of Fish:

Meat

The other food commodity that The Hunter's Call values is meat gathered from animals or monsters such as Megalodons or the Kraken. These meats cannot be sold raw and must be cooked at a stove or campfire. Meat can sometimes be found in barrels in shipwrecks, Barrels of Plenty or Skeleton Ships.

There are five types of meat:

Treacherous Plunder

Treacherous Plunder is a small group of miscellaneous items that can sometimes stick to the Fishing Rod rather than a fish biting. These only have a chance to show up when the Player attempts to fish without any Bait. The items themselves are only worth 10 Gold each and can only be sold to The Hunter's Call. Their main value is to acquire the Hunter of Treacherous Plunder Commendation.

Ritual Skulls

Ritual Skulls were initially one of the Dark Relics, but as they were retrieved, they became less valuable for the Order of Souls and are now only valuable to the Bilge Rats, who buy them from you for 10 Doubloons. These Skulls are tied to the Fort of the Damned Bilge Rat Adventures and are used in Rituals to start the Raid Encounter at the Fort.

Reaper's Bones Treasure

Gifts can be found from Skeleton's Orders Maps, inside Fortress Vaults or on the shorelines of Islands and Forts.

Broken Emissary Flags

Broken Emissary Flags are the remains of Trading Company Emissary ships that have been sunk or scuttled. These Flags are highly valuable to the Reaper's Bones, who wish to see nothing more than the destruction of the Trading Companies and all of their Representatives.

Siren Gems
