Running aground on a mysterious shrouded island during a naval battle?

Farahlon = mini-Pandaria

Comment by rob1n3tt

I might be missing something, but even with 3x epic ships, countering everything except the Expert Captains, and then filling out the rest with bonus success chance perks, I still can't get above 99% success chance. Not even with 3x Human Crews for that 3% extra success chance.

Just got this mission on live servers, sent it out with 77% and instantly completed it with a mission order, since they said legendary missions stay even if you fail them. However, the mission disappeared from my map after I failed it. Will it return soon or should I make a ticket?

Edit: Reappeared after 2 days.

I've had a level three shipyard for over a week now and have not seen this mission spawn. Wondering if it is supposed to be there as soon as you get a level three shipyard or if you have to wait for the unmerciful RNG god to give you it on your board?

Anyone know if any of the air superiority or fearless privateer mission buffs can apply to the area this quest is under?

Comment by Walkerfin

Lol 6- and 16- here. You People obvisoly dont care to heard good story.

Comment by Manifoldgodhead

Is anyone not failing this mission and losing all three ships on their first attempt?

95%, all three ships lost. I get RNG and all but this seems to be a very high chance to fail and a very high chance to lose ships.

Comment by Shivacode

Worth noting that you don't need level 3 shipyard to beat this mission. It can pop up with a level 2 shipyard provided you beat all the other legendary missions, and you can counter it with an Awakener ship from Order of the Awakened exalted.

Important Updates:
If success chance of a mission is 90% or more, you can still fail, but you will not lose any ships!
If you fail any of the legendary naval missions, they will respawn on your map within 2 days.

This naval mission is final one in a chain of missions required for the Legendary questline (to upgrade your legendary ring). Completing this mission will grant the reward Draenic Sea Chart.

The Legendary questline naval mission chain is as follows:

Boarding the Master's Call is a mission requiring the following 3 ships:

1 Destroyer (to counter Submarine)
1 Battleship (to counter Destroyer)
1 Carrier* OR Arakkoa Crew** (to counter Battleship)

Notes:

*The Ship Blueprint: Carrier to build a Carrier is only obtained after completing Naval Domination (Horde)/Naval Domination (Alliance), which requires 25 Treasure Naval Missions to be completed.

**The Ship: The Awakener (for Alliance) and Ship: The Awakener (for Horde) is a HUGE asset on this mission. It acts as both a Destroyer and a Carrier at the same time, due to the Arakkoa Crew which is ONLY available on this ship. As such, one ship slot is freed up for a ship that will provide success chance boosts to the naval mission (e.g. Undead Crew, Sonic Amplification Field, etc.). The Awakener can be purchased upon reaching Exalted with Order of the Awakened. It costs 160g (at Exalted) and is purchased from Dawn-Seeker Krisek in Vol'mar (H)/Lion's Watch (A).

This naval mission costs 150 Oil to start, and takes 2 days to complete (at baseline).

The following additional threats need to be countered (the necessary equipment/abilities are also listed below):

Threat

Counter

2 X Evasive	2 X True Iron Rudder
First Strike	Felsmoke Launcher
Minelayer	Trained Shark Tank
2 X Expert Captain	Cannot be directly countered. Can be accounted for with the following ship abilities/crews: Ammo Reserves Automated Sky Scanner Sonic Amplification Field Human Crew Pandaren Crew Undead Crew

Ok I didn't see it listed any where but you actually do not need to upgrade the shipyard to tier 3 for the legendary chain (I am not saying you shouldn't, you can play this how you want but for my third alt I really did not care at all about the shipyard and just wanted to be done with it, and skipping the 25 treasure missions will save you quite a bit of time)

Personally found the shipyard a total drag to do on multiple characters especially alts with low resources. So what I ended up doing on my alt (wasnt sure if it would work) I just yoloed all the earlier missions to get to tier 2. When it came time to doing the legendary missions I would put spare parts on them to increase my odds and use my mage tower scroll. i got lucky up until the very last one (did not have Carrier ships) It took me 3 tries and lost a couple ships but I did get it doing this way and saved me a whole lot of head ache compared to grinding out the ships and not even being a full 100 percent on my other chars. Good luck getting this done!

It's been 3 days since i completed the previous mission to this one and i still haven't seen this one. Do you need the part of the map this mission appears in, to be clear of other missions for it to appear?

Comment by Sinfuldeath

Wondering if this mission is repeatable after a successful completion.... I remember getting a navel mission with a map right after I reached lvl 2 shipyard and received a grey map as a reward. Now I need a map for the legendary quest and have been waiting for it to pop for several weeks. I currently have a lvl 3 shipyard.

Comment by Kvasi

The second try the duration was only 1 day.

Comment by namic85

On my first attempt with 94% success chance, the mission failed, luckily i didnt lose any ship. Now worried to try it second time

Comment by 1268651

Just gave it a try with 81% chance and no carrier (17/25 treasure missions) and boom! success. Omg RNG. Good luck all.

Comment by iIIumnati

This mission is similar to the following 3 heirloom ring missions:

1] The House Always Wins
2] For Hate's Sake
3] The Wave Mistress

The similarity is that it requires a high percentage chance to succeed. For "normal" missions, a high percentage is good, but for these missions, you need a very high chance to win. For a typical Garrison mission, an 85% chance means just that, 85%, pretty good. But for these missions, 85% is not good. You will be very lucky if you succeed on this mission with an 85% success chance.

I have figured out a way to get this to 100% chance, but it would not be practical to implement, due to the bizzare circumstance required. It would require, for example, the following:

1] Carrier with Felsmoke Launcher + Sonic Amplifier + Human Crew.
2] Battleship with a True Iron Rudder + Automated Sky Launcher + Human Crew.
3] Destroyer with a True Iron Rudder + Ammo Reserves + Human Crew.

This would depend on you building a new ship with it's original special counter and leaving it that way. Not to mention the other multiple possibilities.

I found another way to get this one to 100%, but it requires three Panda driven ships.

1] Carrier with Felsmoke Launcher + Panda Crew.
2] Battleship with a True Iron Rudder + Trained Shark Tank + Panda Crew.
3] Destroyer with a True Iron Rudder + Panda Crew.

But I have also found a way to get it to 99%, 98%, and 96%.
I will leave these as exercises for you.

At this point in your naval career let us hope that your navy has focused on elf ships for speed and gnome ships for acquiring naval equipment. So now you have 40,000 oil and 6 of each naval equipment, except ghostly spyglass which you always keep 2 of on hand available at any point in time.

With your over abundance of garrison resources, you luckily purchased many of the Rush Order: Shipyard tokens, so that you can decommission and build a replacement ship in short order appropriate to your naval needs.

Ideally, you want to complete these missions faster, so you employ elves. But, elves may fail you for some of these missions. Fire them, hire Pandas and Humans to do your bidding, then fire them and hire back the elves when you're done.

When you complete all naval mission, your end game will be to focus on collecting gold.

I want to add that you do NOT need a level 3 shipyard in order to complete "Boarding the Master's Call". I completed it with a level 2 shipyard with a 73% chance of completion. Not sure the fleet as I just took a stab at it before finishing my 24th and 25th treasure missions.
