Uncharted Waters Online Advanced Finals Guide

Uncharted Waters Online Advanced Finals Guide by Starcrossed

Because several people have requested I write this guide, I just spend the last six hours reliving the Advanced schools so that I could bring this guide to you all. I hope someone finds it useful!

Warning:

THE GRIND!
The grind is simply known as the part of any Advanced school where you are forced to do ten repeatable quests to get to the final. Rather than give a list of all ten from each course and how to do them, I will give you the quickest of the quests you can do and explain how to complete it. You can repeat this quest ten times to end the grind.

GROUPS!
This is best done in a full fleet of five. Like this you can get nearly 2000 fame per final if you all turn in at once. It also makes the grind more fun.
