Crimson Desert Remote Islands: All 3 Samora Island Quests Walkthrough

1 – The Windswept Harbor

The Windswept Harbor is the first quest of Remote Islands. You find the questline under Faction Quests in your journal, in the Samora Island faction in the Great Ocean group. Complete the A Wider World questline first, since that unlocks your ship and Remote Islands.

Speak with Your Comrades

Meet the Greymanes south of the Delesyan Institute. Kliff asks what is going on, and his comrades explain that the supplies meant for Hernand and Pailune got held up at the port. No ships are sailing. Some blame the rough seas, others say pirates have taken an island to the east. Since it is only hearsay, Kliff offers to ask around at the port while the others stay behind and guard the supplies.

Check the Situation at the Port

Head to the port, northwest of the previous location, and talk to the crew members waiting there. The ships have been tied up for ten days. Pirates have turned a quiet island village off the coast into their base and attack every ship that sails. The guard sent patrol boats, but less than half came back, and the navy will not send warships. Kliff decides to take back the island himself, but he needs a sturdy ship, since a small boat would not survive the rough sea.

Go to the Ship Manager and Set Sail

The Ship Manager is across the bridge to the south. Talk to him to retrieve and repair your ship, as you would do with a wagon. Then board your ship and set sail.

Find the Island Held by Pirates

The island held by pirates is in the far east of the East Sea. Reaching it completes The Windswept Harbor and starts The Seaborne Village.

2 – The Seaborne Village

The Seaborne Village starts as soon as you arrive at Samora Island, an island village overrun by pirates. Defeat them and bring the terrified villagers to safety.

Destroy the Pirate Ships and Defeat the Enemies around Samora

There are two pirate ships near the docks. One is sailing and the other one is docked. Destroy both, then get on land and defeat the pirates around the village.

Destroy the Dancing Catfish Crusher

The pirates summon a machine from the sea, the Dancing Catfish Crusher. It looks like a gigantic tank, but you first have to find it. Use the lantern to find its tracks on the north side of the island.

The machine is so big that it carved a road into the dirt. Follow the tracks east, then south. You will hear it when it is nearby.

The Dancing Catfish Crusher has five weak points, all next to its turrets: one on top by the two upper turrets, and two on each side, one near the lower turret and one near the upper turret. Destroy the turrets to incapacitate the machine, then stab the exposed red orb to damage it. Repeat this for all five orbs to destroy the Crusher. Then Sir Catfish himself attacks. Defeat him as well.

Obtain the Artifact

After the fight, the artifact hovers where Sir Catfish fell. It does not go into your inventory automatically, so walk over and pick it up. Sir Catfish got away, but his gang no longer holds the village, and the blockaded sea routes should return to normal.

Picking up the artifact completes The Seaborne Village. Reward: 5 Ancient Relics, Abyss Artifact and Trial by Fire.

3 – Seized by Pirates

Seized by Pirates asks you to liberate the whole of Samora Island. Clear every pirate group on the island:

Defeat the enemies along the northern coast
Defeat the enemies along the southern coast
Defeat the enemies along the eastern coast
Defeat the enemies around the ruins of Samora
Defeat the enemies around Samora Watchtower Zone

With the pirates driven out of the coast and all key locations, Samora Island is liberated. This completes Seized by Pirates and the Remote Islands questline. Afterwards, the Mistbound Sea questline appears under Samora Island in your journal.
