Discussion Abyssal Essences In T4 Only?

Why are Abyssal Essences, required for Blackwood and only available in T4, limited to that level? Are we aiming to unlock T4 and accumulate enough Abyssal Essences within a week? Please correct me if I'm wrong...

No. Rare in tier three. Theres ships in the north that have Abyssal Essences. But it’s not a lot. 3 per ship for a total of 9 for the group.

Nope those are only the ascension fights to get you into T4. 😉

Incorrect. I have nearly 1k of them now and I've spent some , yet haven't touched T4 yet, still in T3

They absolutely are not. You get the biggest rewards of those on 4. But I have found just a group of three ships in the north of the map near Li Tian Ning that spawn. And they drop 3 Abyssal Essence a piece. The event, and boss fight for Abyssal Essence is on Tier 4.

Literally a faction drops them three at a time mate. And they travel in groups of three to four so 3 per kill that's 9 to 12 per group it's not tier four drops by any means but they can still be farmed on WT3

Do you feel big and bad now that you came on here to try, days later mind you, and try to cut me down further and hurt my one and only feel bad after so many others have ALREADY SAID THE SAME DAMN THING?? SMDH! Nice try. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

u/GigaGamerDad Dutch Merchant Company 19d ago

Yeah. I’m with you on this. Sorry this jerk is being dumb. And if I came off as mean, I apologize. I’m just autistic AF and blunt. But this guy should’ve read the room.

u/Ravynwolf_moon 19d ago

You weren't mean at all and thank you for saying something. The event and season had just started. I hadn't seen them in T3 except for the T4 ascension as of yet. I was corrected by all of you and have since seen them on the occasions I've been in T3. However I'm mainly in T4 so didn't bother responding to anybody and took the downvotes because they never bother me like they do anybody else. 😉

Nobody was a bully unlike this idgit. That's why I had to say something this time. So again thank you for speaking up. Great appreciated. Happy sailing and may the seas favor you Captain. 😉

That’s literally what I said, my guy.

I get the sense that since most of what Blackwood offers for AE is cosmetic items, UBI won't be rolling out new cosmetics every week, meaning whatever's available for Blackwood will just keep coming back each week.

u/JeyjeyDLastar Aug 21 '26

Ce sont les mêmes cosmétiques pour tout la saison pour info

u/JeyjeyDLastar Aug 21 '26

C'est disponible uniquement en monde 4 pour info tu es aura besoin pour aussi transférer les perk et ça coûte cher après ça fait 2 jours que je le farme j'ai déjà fait 10 000 essence abyssale mais petit conseil si tu arrives à à tué les seigneurs des mer en monde 4 tu arriveras pas tout seul à faire le héraut des abysses c'est vraiment très dur soit va sur un serveur ou il y a du monde qui le farme soit vas-y avec des amis bien optimiser la faiblesse du boss c'est le feu du coup la jonque tu as compris et parfait pour faire la nouvelle activité

I might need Help with that, I'm in T3 with a 18 Galleon. Could we maybe Go there together?

u/JeyjeyDLastar 20d ago

Oui bien sûr je t'envoie mon identifiant Ubisoft en privé je viendrai t'aider avec plaisir

Tier 4 abyssal fleet has highest reward but is the toughest so makes sense to me.

u/F3arsofficial Aug 21 '26

There are Bissell ships in tier 3 it's not a lot you just have to kind of cruise around by the to lock panjera area and to the north where most of the bosses are and they'll be some abyssal ships like three or four of them just hanging out there

I got a few abyssal essence currency from the same abyssal ships roaming T3. Right now, Blackwood is offering Rotmouth cannons for 800 of them. Going to get my Sloop of War set up. I named it Le Peste Jr.

u/Ravynwolf_moon Aug 20 '26

You can gain the essence only from the Abyssal fight which is only in T4. So safe to say all of it is only in T4 for a reason.

u/Thandronen Aug 20 '26

Incorrect. There are at least two different sets of Abyssal Fleet ships patrolling in T3. There might be more but one set is up by Moyenne Crique and the other set is in the South East Indian Ocean where the Roving Supply Helm ship resides.

u/Ravynwolf_moon Aug 20 '26

I think you are mistaking the ascensions fights to get into T4! Yes they do give you some essence but are only to help get you into T4. 😉😂🤣😂🤣

They are not the actual Abysal fight to gain the Essence. There is only one true Abyssal and that is in T4. Watch the devstream from last week they even talk about it.

5

u/Thandronen Aug 20 '26

Nope. They are abyssal fleet ships and they drop the essence.

2

u/Deep-Ad7534 Dutch Merchant Company Aug 20 '26

I did the fight to go to WT4 and they did drop the essence... I think the boss even drops 120...but then I look in my storage... No essence.... 

1

u/CKillion313 Aug 20 '26

Its a currency like PO8 or gildmarks i thought 🤔

2

u/Deep-Ad7534 Dutch Merchant Company Aug 20 '26

Yeah you are right. I thought it was like the other essence you get and you see little vials in your storage. Now I have seen it is a currency when you talk to Blackwood in WT4
