Erm I'm trying to get the city official to increase my storage slots as Donce described a few comments ago, but he is not being helpful. Do we know how to trigger this feature?

Guilder
05-19-2015

I've heard the current theory is that that you need to be 78+ in adventure, trade, or battle before the City Official will increase your storage capacity.

Egw
05-19-2015

I asked the same thing in the official forum and there they replied it's 76+. Either way, it explains my situation as I'm in high 60s low 70s everywhere so I still have a few 100s of 1000s of exp points to go through before I can take advantage of this :-).

Got nothing at 56/77/27 so it would seem that 78 is the magic number. One more nanban run til my next Trade lvl; will try again after to confirm.

Murph
05-20-2015

Nothing at 56/78/27 either! There must be some other requirement. Total levels? Investment?

Guilder
05-20-2015

Well, a friend has 68/78/61, and nothing from the Town Official. Not sure how much they've invested, but... the mystery continues, I guess.

Dumped 30 million into St. Pete, still nothing. Bummer!

Murph & Guilder: on the official forum they are now saying...
1) this should have been so that at adv 76 you get the binder and bag increases, at trade 76 you get the recipe book increase and at battle 76 you get an extra weapons forte slot.
2) but it's currently glitched and you get all three at adv 76!
3) it should be fixed in a future patch
=> so either we'll reach adv 76 before the patch and we get them all three or the patch comes before that and we get them as intended. :-)

Donce
05-20-2015

for me, battle lvl 75 was enough to increase Forte weapon slots.
Maybe fame also plays role in this - not sure

Egw
05-20-2015

Yeah, but how high's your adv? They say battle 76 would *in theory* be needed. In practice, the feature is thought to be glitched and gives you all three benefits at adv 76...

Thanks for the other info, Destry. Hmm... One of these days, we data collectors really should get around to posting information on the Port Royal / Xanadu recipes, shouldn't we? Oh well. Back to adventuring for now. Cheers all, and happy recipe producing.

According to the Japanese wiki, Felt requires 77k development at St. Petersburg before it will show up.

did u guys get the crafted items from Skt.P recorded in the Memorial Album? I made a pair of boots when Skt.P arrived in UWO, but it didn't open any new MA collection :(

Guilder
05-22-2015

Nope. I now think we'll probably get an announcement when the new MA collections for St. Petersburg, Port Royal, and Xanadu are finally put in the game.

Small update: I should clarify that I haven't tried making any of the above recipes since the last patch was released.

About the quest "Birds getting changed" mentioned in the above comments, Curious gave accurate and helpful directions, but for those of us who aren't yet fluent in Survey coordinate-ese: the discovery is north-east of Narvik, up in the North Norwegian Sea. And I don't think you can get up that far without Mercator's Northeast Passage missions. I hope that helps anybody looking to do the quest!

V_I

The also-above mentioned quest "A forest in the tundra" sends you to the White Sea, up in the Northeast Passage. Coordinates are accurate there too! Thanks to all of you for entering all that information for us, it's much appreciated.

"Yeah, but how high's your adv? They say battle 76 would *in theory* be needed. In practice, the feature is thought to be glitched and gives you all three benefits at adv 76..."

Yes, although it might have been patched in the astronomy update (?).
I got all three benefits when I reached 76/58/51 (you need to talk 3 times with the city official)

Uh, a long time ago, we were all wondering about the Russian City Official who gave you special benefits from talking to him? Well, I'm 78 trade, and just visited him for the first time since Wild West patch was released. Bam! My Recipe Book increased after a quick chat about my business ventures. So they might finally have fixed that glitch.
