Lost this one with a 96% chance. No telling when I might get it again... /cry

Edit: I believe the only way to get 100% might be to have two Human crews, since there are 5 hazards and only 4 equipment slots. My 96% chance was with one Human crew. You will also need to kill Captain Ironbeard to get the Equipment Blueprint: Ghostly Spyglass, which sucks because it's not a guaranteed drop.

Does anyone have any info on when you will start getting the Heirloom missions? Do they start showing up only when your shipyard is level 3? Or is it completely random? Thanks.

Comment by corkimus

I found this mission shortly after upgrading my naval base to level 3. I think that is a requirement for the ring quests. I have several level 2 navy bases and several level 3. Each one of the level 3 navy bases got a ring quest a few days after upgrading to level 3.

The Wave Mistress was one of the ships in Kul Tiras' Third Fleet, which was destroyed by Dragonmaw Orcs on Red Dragons during the Second War. It was also referenced in a now-obsolete quest The Third Fleet.

Oh... for crying out loud, these heirloom rings appear as SWORDS on the map? I've always been looking for a chest, ie item. Well, guess I've missed at least one of these over the last month.

To achieve 100% on this shipyard mission and any of the other two heirloom ring missions (For Hate's Sake and The House Always Wins), build the following ships:

Destroyer with Pandaren Crew, Ghostly Spyglass and Felsmoke Launcher or True Iron Rudder.

and

Carrier with Pandaren Crew, Ghostly Spyglass and Felsmoke Launcher or True Iron Rudder. (whichever is not on your Destroyer).

Comment by Apennyworth

This was my first heirloom ring mission to show up, 133 days after 6.2 launch, using 12 level 100s that all have completed their level 3 shipyard. Do yourself a favor and level two Pandaren crews for this (I used 1 panda + 1 undead and only got to 99%).

Is there anything we can do that might increase the chances of spawning this mission? 8,571 missions and this one still won't show up.

On December 1, 2015 the spawn rates of these rare missions were increased:

"Rare Naval Missions have an increased chance to appear."

From my own experience, since this hotfix a couple of days ago, I have received this heirloom ring mission (the last one I still need), the mount mission and the 2000 gold mission across the 4 characters I actually do Shipyard missions on.

So it seems the chance has been increased quite a bit.

>>(Do not need to counter: Dense Fog, Stormy Weather, Chaotic Whirlpools)<<

Below is all you need for 100% Chance for all three Heirloom naval ring missions:

(Horde) Undead Crew for both Carrier & Destroyer
(Alliance) Human Crew for both Carrier & Destroyer

Just need to counter:
--First Strike With (Felsmoke Launcher)
--Evasive With (True Iron Rudder)
--Both Carrier and Destroyer for Cursed Crew With (Ghostly Spyglass)

You can equip True Iron Rudder on one ship and Felsmoke Launcher on the other one vice-versa.

Since last patch 6.2.3 I never saw any ''cursed crew'' missions, been at it everyday

Comment by Aros

Up until about a month ago I still had never seen any of the heirloom ring missions. I have only one level 100 character but I had done missions with him pretty much every day. By that time I had completed the mission for Left Shark at least six times. I tried to read up on it and there are some various theories on what is required. The main claims seems to be these requirements:

Level 3 shipyard
At least 675 item level on character
At least 675 item level on garrison followers
Equipment blueprint: Ghostly Spyglass

I'm pretty sure I have fulfilled the first three more or less since the patch 6.2 went live. Hard to be sure this long after. But I had not bothered to collect the blueprint. So now I went over to Tanaan, found Captain Ironbeard, killed him and got my blueprint.

Now as any story like this mine is all anecdotal and some will claim it's only RNG at play but the first week after getting the blueprint I got my first mission for an heirloom ring and now I have successfully completed all three of them. I don't know about the first three requirements but I do believe you need the blueprint or the heirloom ring missions won't spawn.

Comment by Zeldeza

I've yet to actually see this mission appear and it's the only one I need until my shipyard achievements are complete.

Comment by eternalbliss

Failed one of these with 97% chance and everything countered except the chaotic whirlpool.. very HEAVILY rng-based.. there is just no way you should fail with that high of a %success chance and everything countered. (it didn't even matter if i countered whirlpool or not, stuck at 97%)

Comment by kinnra

Anyone else having issues on getting the mission to pop up? It has been over 143 days since i first seen the mission. I have done all treasure missions and still nothing..

Comment by ThisGuy83

Dose this quest repeat itself by any chance if you already beat it?

I would really like to know since this Heirloom disappear from my WoW account dew to my account getting transferred to different Blizzard account.

Comment by DarkLordMagus

I don't know if they improved the chances for this mission but I was able to get a success win at 94%.

Comment by whquaint

Is the Wowhead map above correct in that this mission only appears in the upper-right quadrant?

Comment by 360fov

3 days ago the quest for Admiral Taylor's Taylor's Loyalty Ring finally spawned. Collected my reward yesterday ... began clearing quests once again, and this quest has now popped up. Not sure if I just got lucky, or the fact that I got one ring has now increased the spawn change of the other ring missions.
