Sea of Thieves has received another free update and this one is called the Legends of the Sea. This is also actually a new tab in the Bilge Rats reputation tile, replete with several dozen commendations to unlock. These commendations take players all around the Sea of Thieves in search of locations where players have been commemorated, all in a bid to gather information for Umbra.
There are a whole lot of commendations to unlock as part of the Legends of the Sea tab in the Bilge Rat tile. There are commendations for dressing up and showing Umbra, commendations for finding Umbra’s journals, as well as the aforementioned commendations for finding in-game Easter eggs in honor of players.
Unlocking all of these commendations for Legends of the Sea is going to take a bit of time. However, there are a lot of doubloons to earn, so it’s worth the investment.
Below, the commendations are divided into the clothing options, the journals, and then the main areas where the Easter eggs for the players are hidden.
For this set to commendations, players need only buy a few items of clothing and show them to Umbra. To do this, visit any clothing store and purchase the following items. Put the items on and then talk to Umbra on Lagoon of Whispers.
There are a lot of Umbra’s journals to find hidden around Sea of Thieves. These are scattered far and wide, so try to collect them as you complete the following area-specific commendations.
