    Go to Blackroot and get a boat!

    One of three ways

    buy one
    gamble for one
    do stingy petes quests

    Just gave you the basics, you choose (do the stingy pete Stuff)

    you need 50,000 for a boat! thats why hes telling you to come back!

    I've never heard of the isle of DREAD

    do you mean isle of despair? if yes than you go to ashbury and talk to capt. teach but bates should have told you that and you shoudn't be going to thantos YET

    If you mean th Isle of Despair, then yes. You can buy the boat only when you need to, at a certain point in the plot. But even then it's so much more fun getting a boat through a certain quest, so why bother?

    When you are required to obtain a boat by the main plot, you will be given three options: gamble for it, buy one, or do a quest. If you're not at that point yet then just forget about it and play the game.

    Re: Quest

    No, not soon.

    That's the problem with visiting spoiler forums before you've played the game, isn't it? You find out so many things you shouldn't know yet, and episodes of mass confusion break out. Oh that reminds me, it's Sleek_Jeek's own fault for finding out about Arronax before his time, no excuse to spam that other thread out of anger and ruin the page formatting. Ugh!

    following the storyline to some extent does have its virtues!
