Ocean of Tears

Outdoor Antonica Lv 5–30

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.

Getting thereThis 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.
EnemiesThe waters and islands hold aqua goblins, sirens, dervish pirates, Seafury Cyclops, spectres, gargoyles, aviaks, and sharks, with most hostiles attacking on sight while aviaks and sirens stay passive unless provoked.

Notable NPCs

  • Ancient Cyclops roaming named A prized cyclops named hunted for a rare wrist item used in the Journeyman's Boots quest.
    • Ring of the AncientsWrist · casters An INT wrist item and required turn-in for the Journeyman's Boots quest.
  • Allizewsaur named mob A high-level lizard named on one of the outer islands known for dropping gems.
  • Gull Skytalon named mob An aviak named that spawns among the aviak island population.
  • Soarin Brightfeather named mob Another aviak island named sought for its melee weapon drop.

Dangers

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.

Tips

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.
