Pirate101 Main Quest Line Guide
Skull Island
After years of user requests, we are finally adding a new series of Pirate101 main quest line guides! This article is intended to help you track your progress through Skull Island. This also marks my first Pirate101 article, as I recently started playing Pirate101, and I understood the pain of the players, since I was desperately searching for a main quest line.
I list the quests you have to do in a certain area. The areas are listed in the order you should do them in (unless otherwise specified). The area is not always one hundred percent correct, as certain quests can require you to run back and forth between areas to talk to people. To simplify matters, I have not listed this kind of running; the quest will say “talk” but not where the NPC is located. Also, if there is only one quest in an area, I will not mention the area separately. Located between brackets are the different parts of each quest, as many quests require you to do multiple things. Pirate101 is also notorious for making you travel all over the Skyways and Spiral, so while we may list a quest as being assigned in a certain area, it may have you travel to other zones.
I have divided the quests in the Spiral into the following groups:
- Talk: Quests that require an interaction with an NPC.
- Mob: Quests that require the defeat of regular monsters, either by air or on land
- Boss: Quests that require the defeat of a Boss, allowing you to manually choose which companions you will fight with.
- D&C: Quests that require the collection of something from certain monsters (Defeat and Collect).
- Broadside: Quests that require Broadside Combat, or Ship-to-Ship Comat
- Instance: Quests that require the completion of a place behind a sigil with at least 2 battles.
- Interact: Quests that require interaction with a certain object.
- Explore: Quests that just require you to run towards a certain area, NPC or item.
