Where are Merchant ships spawning now?

[Tanivar]

The usual spot east of Ice Island is proving a near ghost town for finding Merchant ships now. Did they get moved elsewhere? Privateering is proving boring since my return sailing around after prey... ah... smugglers, to put out of business.

They make changes in the Sea booster in the last couple of years? I've got three paintings producing heavy powder charges and few smugglers to use them on.

I remember encountering one in the area east of Jhelom - where all the pirates are. I hope that I am recalling correctly.

 

[MalagAste]

I've sometimes found them near the Emporium or even over by Trinsic and NuJelm.

 

[Victim of Siege]

I see them all over Tokuno waters as well

Tokuno is the way to go. Waters there are thick with fat merchant ships.
