#After fable, no swords at shipwrecks - cannot farm Mestra Armour set

I have completed the wreck of Mestra carmo fable, received the Duelo pack fragments and the Navalha rapier.

I've been to several shipwrecks since wearing the Duelo ribbon but there are no swords to enable farming of the Mestra Armour set.

I've seen others having the same issue in chat so this must be a bug.

I've tried re-logging, removing the bestitching from the helm so that the ribbon is visible, and several different locations.

At the shipwreck there are enemies and a chest but no sword. I have killed all the normal enemies but nothing spawns.

Please help!

No mention of this in the latest hotfix 3 either as a fix or as a known issue. Can this be added as a known issue please as it is a key bug stopping progress for some players.

Checked this today (26 Apr 26 @ 23.30 GMT), still an active bug so still no way to farm the armour set.

Seems like a weird bug. Today I decided to put on the ribbon (no bestitch or changes) and started running around the coast, the first three wrecks I found there was a sword at each one. I got pants and hats on the first 3 wrecks.

I am also using the Duelo pact and the Navhala rapier, not sure if using the pact increases chances. On the 4th fight I intentionally decided not to do a deep bow and only got a joinery item, but maybe just coincidence.

There are a lot more wrecks on the eastern coast than on the western coast.

There are 8 wrecks. The sword is a random spawn chance (though high it seems).

#

I’ve had only 3 of the 8 spawn a sword in past runs.

I believe the swords are on 2 hours cooldowns. I can consistently find the same 6 swords every 2 hours, idk where the other 2 locations would be.

OK so are you saying that it's possible that every shipwreck I've visited could randomly not spawn a sword? If so, I've been extremely unlucky as I've visited a lot! I'll try again along the eastern coast next time I play!

I'm not sure if swords always spawn at certain wrecks or not, but once you find one you can't use the sword without wearing the ribbon. It also doesn't glow of you aren't wearing a ribbon.

What I'm not sure about is if you need to be wearing the ribbon as you are approaching the wreck, in the same way that enemies will spawn at a certain distance, maybe the sword will only appear under certain conditions?

#

I also found some wrecks had a very large area, and some were very small. The sword isn't always 'inside' but maybe just a little out of the way behind a rock or something.

I did not create this just saved it from another channel here

Previously when I logged the bug I was wearing the ribbon all the time, so it was on when I approached.

I can confirm however that today I tried the above suggestion from TheMostFrench of ribbon + duelo + espadarte rapier (not navhala, I mis-remembered) and i ran the coast and have now found several swords at shipwrecks. They don't spawn on all like I thought (I read the patch notes but I don't recall it saying that there was only a chance for a sword to spawn and so I must have been very unlucky previously).

Anyway I think unless others still have this happening we can close this bug.

Thanks for the help everyone!
