The in-game map for this zone. North is up.
The Ocean of Tears is the great open sea that the boat between Freeport and Faydwer crosses, a scattering of small islands across deep water that serves as both a travel route and a popular low-to-mid level hunting spot. Each island hosts its own creatures, from newbie-friendly aqua goblins to aviak villages and dangerous cyclops isles, and the famous Ancient Cyclops roams here as a prized target.
This zone is the sea crossing between East Freeport in Antonica and Butcherblock Mountains in Faydwer, with the boat stopping at intermediate isles along the way; canoes link some of the smaller islands to one another.
There are no guards and no walkable zone exits, so a bad pull leaves you Gating or swimming to safety. Canoes vanish if left unused for too long, stranding careless travelers, and right-clicking while riding the boat dumps you into the open water.
Newer players can farm aqua goblins for steady arrows and easy experience, while low-teens soloists do well against the aviak starlings. Avoid crowded islands to skip competition, keep a Gate or bind ready since there is no walking out, and never abandon a canoe you still need.
