Infamy

Infamy

Each player now has an Infamy value tracked for them on the Ocean that applies to all characters across their OutlandsID

Players Increase their Infamy by 1 when:

• Killing the captain of another ship that they initiated combat with
• Earning any doubloons for sinking another Player Ship they initiated combat with

Note: A player who dies due to the ship sinking is considered "Killed" by the players who attacked the ship, and will be viable for Infamy handling

Infamy Decay and Limits

At the start of each day players will lose 1 Infamy Players are capped at a maximum of 90 Infamy (I.e. will take 1 season to return to 0 Infamy from max)

Friendly Infamy Exemptions

Players will not gain Infamy from sinking ships or killing captains in the same Guild, Alliance, or Party as the player, of if a Guild War exists between the players

Contested or Summoned Boss Infamy Exemptions

While a contested Ocean Boss is alive, any player ship that approaches within 150 tiles of the Ocean Boss will become flagged as Infamy Exempt for the next 5 minutes While a summoned Ocean Boss is alive, any player ship that is not in the same guild as those who summoned the boss, that approaches within 150 tiles of the Ocean Boss will become flagged as Infamy Exempt for the next 5 minutes If a player has an Infamy Exemption in place, and are sunk or killed by another player, the Infamy mechanic will be ignored (regardless of distance to the Ocean Boss) Contested or Summoned Boss Infamy Exemptions will continuously refresh while the player is within 150 tiles or if they leave/return to within 150 tiles while the boss is alive

Infamy Spyglass Mechanics

For each point of Infamy that a player has, all other players receive a flat bonus of 10 tiles to Spyglass Search Distance against them (after all bonuses/penalties/wakescalar are applied), up to maximum bonus of 300 tiles Ships captained by a player with 10 Infamy or more will display in Orange in the Spyglass Search results menu
