How To Remove Infamy In Sea of Conquest
If you don’t want to be constantly looking over your shoulder for players who are after your bounty (which can be inconvenient especially if you’re Auto-Trading), then you’ll have to use Heart of Atonements to reduce your Infamy.
As you can see from the image above, you can buy three different kinds of Heart of Atonements from the Dock Merchant stall in exchange for Emeralds.
Here’s how much each type of Heart of Atonement costs and how many points they deduct from your Infamy:
| Purchasable Heart of Atonements (Dock Merchant) | Purchase Cost | Infamy Points Deducted |
| Heart of Atonement – Primary (Green) | 10 Emeralds | 100 Infamy |
| Heart of Atonement – Primary (Green) | 50 Emeralds | 100 Infamy |
| Heart of Atonement – Advanced (Blue) | 150 Emeralds | 300 Infamy |
| Heart of Atonement – Savvy (Purple) | 250 emeralds | 500 Infamy |
TIP: Keep in mind that you can only purchase hearts from the Dock Merchant once per day, so we highly recommend buying the 80% discounted Heart of Atonement – Primary as often as you can, just so you can save enough hearts for a rainy day—all at a low price!
What Is Infamy?
The Infamy System in Sea of Conquest puts Gold bounties on players who commit acts that reduce their reputation. These bounties can be claimed by other players who manage to sink those with high Infamy.
Here are all the levels of Infamy you can attain in Sea of Conquest, as well as how much bounty in Gold and restrictions each level places on your fleet:
| Infamy Level | Infamy Points Required | Gold Bounty & Penalties Given |
|---|---|---|
| Risin’ Urge | 300 Infamy | 10,000 Gold Bounty |
| Cursed Path | 500 Infamy | 30,000 Gold Bounty |
| Butcher o’ the Seas | 1,000 Infamy | 50,000 Gold Bounty Chance to be included in the Wanted List |
| Foul Stench | 1,800 Infamy | 100,000 Gold Bounty |
| Monstrous Sins | 2,800 Infamy | 200,000 Gold Bounty Cannot loot resources from other players or Merchant Ships |
How Players Get Infamy
You get points in your Infamy mainly by committing the following acts:
- Attacking other players
- Attacking Merchant Ships
You can see how much Infamy you currently have by checking the red skull icon at the middle left part of your screen.
Moreover, you can also check how many points will be added to your Infamy after sinking a Merchant Ship by simply clicking on the ship and reading the summary sheet that pops up before you attack.
WARNING: Sinking Merchant Ships may give you tons of loot to sell for Gold, but not only does this give you Infamy—it also reduces your Guild Relations with the Guild the ships are affiliated with, so be careful!
The Wanted List
In Sea of Conquest, the Wanted List is a list of players in your server that have accrued the Infamy Level of Butcher o’ the Seas and above.
If you’ve killed enough players or merchant Ships for your Infamy to reach 1,000 points, then watch out—you might just get a warrant and be put on the Wanted List!
All of the players on this list can be tracked anytime, making hiding or escaping nigh impossible unless you’re prepared to re-dock in ports again and again or pay for extended docking time by purchasing a Stay Permit in exchange for Emeralds.
Conclusion
Despite having its risks, sinking other pirates and plundering merchant vessels comes with the whole pirating experience, so don’t let the Infamy system dissuade you from doing whatever you want in Sea of Conquest.
Complete freedom—now that’s the mark of a true pirate!
