Recover Captain Morgan’s Pistols from Black Island's underwater wreck without expecting the island chest counter to move.

The 917, 616 wreck chest is listed as a bonus pickup; the nearby 915, 618 manor chest is the one counted by the Black Island area tracker.

Why this entry is useful

An underwater-versus-manor route split, oxygen/access check, pistol-inventory proof and explanation for an unchanged regional counter.

PowerPyx's Resynced pistol list identifies Captain Morgan’s Pistols at Black Island 917, 616. Its chest list describes an underwater shipwreck bonus chest that does not count toward the island's one-chest tracker; verify the present reward and counter in-game.

Safe first move

Confirm the Black Island underwater marker and current dive access, then treat the wreck as a separate optional stop from the second-floor manor chest.

Finish line

Captain Morgan’s Pistols appear in the current pistol inventory after the wreck chest opens, even if the Black Island area counter remains unchanged.

Save proofKnow when it worked

Captain Morgan’s Pistols appear in the current pistol inventory after the wreck chest opens, even if the Black Island area counter remains unchanged.

How to use it

A bonus wreck chest is not a tracker error

Judge the underwater pickup by the pistol inventory. Black Island's regional one-chest counter follows the manor chest instead.

Recovery path

The island counter did not change

If the wreck chest opens but the area tracker remains unchanged, verify Captain Morgan’s Pistols and move to the manor for counted progress. If the underwater route is inaccessible or oxygen is low, surface, confirm present dive access and retry the named wreck instead of opening unrelated shore chests.

Dive access → wreck chest → pistol inventory

  1. At Black Island, distinguish the underwater 917, 616 pistol lead from the manor outfit marker before entering the water.
  2. Check the current dive route and oxygen margin, open the underwater shipwreck chest, and surface rather than forcing a low-air second search.
  3. Read the Captain Morgan’s Pistols pickup in inventory; use the counted manor chest, not this bonus chest, if the island completion counter is still short.

How to use Captain Morgan’s Pistols Chest – Black Island Wreck

The Black Island 917, 616 pistol lead is an underwater shipwreck bonus chest, not the manor chest counted by the island tracker. Check present dive access and air, then verify Captain Morgan’s Pistols in inventory even if the area counter stays still.

  1. Separate the 917, 616 underwater pistol marker from the 915, 618 manor outfit chest before diving.
  2. Use the current wreck entry and oxygen margin to reach the bonus chest; surface and retry if the route cannot be completed safely.
  3. Check Captain Morgan’s Pistols in inventory; visit the manor second floor if Black Island's counted chest is still missing.

Common Questions

Where should I look for Captain Morgan’s Pistols on Black Island?

Use 917, 616 as the underwater wreck lead and confirm the matching marker and present dive access in your map before entering the water. Keep it separate from the 915, 618 manor chest; route references associate that second-floor pickup with Black Island’s local chest count, so confirm the live counter in your save.

Why can Black Island’s chest counter stay unchanged after this pickup?

Route references describe the 917, 616 wreck as a bonus pickup, separate from the second-floor manor chest associated with the local count. Check Captain Morgan’s Pistols by name in your current pistol inventory; if Black Island’s counter is still short, recheck the live map and manor route around 915, 618. Treat the count association as a route lead and verify it in your save.

How do I know I collected Captain Morgan’s Pistols?

Open the current pistol inventory and look for Captain Morgan’s Pistols by name. A cleared map marker or an unchanged regional chest count is not reward proof; if the pistols are absent, keep the route unresolved and confirm the live marker and pickup before retrying the dive.
