Resources are plentiful across the many islands in the Indian Ocean that you can explore in Skull and Bones. In Ubisoft's long-awaited seafaring action-adventure game, you will plunder, pillage, and loot your way to an unforeseen level of pirate infamy.
One of the more versatile resources you'll find is Skull and Bones is the coconut, which has uses that go beyond being a delicious island fruit. For those wanting to maximize the amount of fruit in their cargo, you'll want to know how to find and harvest coconuts.
Skull and Bones: How to Get Bronze Ingot
This guide details two simple methods that players can use to quickly obtain Bronze Ingots, a Refined Metal, in Skull and Bones.
How to Find Coconut in Skull and Bones
Before you go harvesting the iconic island fruits, you will first need to know how to locate them. Thankfully, as is the case with most resources in the game, it is not difficult to identify areas where coconuts are grown. To find coconut, simply open the game's map and look for the red-purple symbol resembling two halves of a coconut that has been cracked open.
With that said, be on the lookout for coconut trees when you are walking through the many island settlements in Skull and Bones. Those that are smaller and less established may also be home to coconut trees and won't require any effort to harvest them. When on an island with coconut trees, simply walk to the tree and any stray fruits that have fallen on the ground will be available for you to loot. If you don't feel like sailing to a coconut-spawning area, you can alternatively fast travel to another island and try your luck there.
How to Harvest Coconut in Skull and Bones
Harvesting the many resources in Skull and Bones generally follows the same process across all collectible consumables, and acquiring coconuts is no different. As is the case with other useful materials such as Jute, you will need to complete a mini-game in order to harvest the fruit. You will be rewarded for timing your strokes right, or punished if you mistime your button inputs.
To harvest coconuts, you will need to sail your ship next to a coconut tree and press the indicated button. Once the mini-game commences, you will be tasked with pressing another indicated button as the icon passes over the yellow and green zones. You will harvest the fruit if you press the button in both zones, but you will receive a resource bonus if you manage to hit it in the green zone. If you miss both zones, your harvest will come to an abrupt end.
Coconut trees don't seem to grow as quickly as some other resources, so you may encounter some empty trees on your travels, particularly if someone has recently visited them. Be on the lookout for trees that have big green leaves on them, as this indicates an abundance of fruit on them.
