How Expeditions Work
Timed sea voyages to island regions that sit apart from the normal map — each with its own tides, currency, wildlife and exclusive loot. You sail out from Ravennor and back.
What an expedition is
An expedition is a timed, repeatable voyage to a special region that is not on the normal Valestia map. Each destination has its own tides, wildlife, regional currency and exclusive rewards, and it is reached only by ship from Ravennor. Expeditions run in scheduled windows — a launch opens boarding, the seas stay open for a set time, and then it closes.
Open the permanent Ravennor Expedition Hall once you are in Ravennor. It lists every destination, your voyages, and a short how-it-works panel — new expeditions appear here over time without replacing the ones before them.
The voyage — step by step
| Step | What you do |
|---|---|
| 1 · Reach Ravennor | Travel the normal Valestia map to Ravennor and open its Expedition Hall. |
| 2 · Browse & board | Pick a destination, read its guide, and press Board Ship. The sea crossing takes 45 real minutes and cannot be skipped — not even by a clan teleport. |
| 3 · Land & play | On arrival your regional access swaps to the expedition. Use !hunt and !safari in the expedition channel only. |
| 4 · Spend & sail home | Trade your regional currency at the destination's own exchange, then press Return to Ravennor — another 45-minute voyage. |
⏳ The 45-minute timers are real time and survive a bot restart, so a voyage is never skipped or lost. Even after a launch ends, anyone already on the islands can still sail back.
Currency & rewards
While you are on an expedition, a successful !hunt pays a regional currency instead of the usual crafting materials, and !safari finds Pokemax that live only there. You spend the currency at the destination's own exchange on exclusive gear, a weapon, catch items and a permanent title — none of it craftable back at the mainland forge.
🧭 Destinations live in their own section. The first one is open now — see The Sunken Fang Archipelago.
