Message in a Bottle
On occasion, a lucky Fisher or Aquarium-owner will discover a Message in a Bottle. Looking inside will reveal either a Waterstained SoS or, on a 1 in 25 chance, an Ancient SoS.
Travelling to the locaton the message specifies gives you the chance to attempt to fish a chest up from the ocean floor, though at least 75 skill points in Fishing are required for a chance of succeeding.
Pre-chest Loot
While attempting to bring up the chest, you may on occasion bring up other bits of random items with the special tag "Recovered from a Shipwreck". Such articles include:
Common Items
- Footwear including Sandals, Boots and Thigh Boots
- Hats including Skullcap and Tricorne Hat
- Cushions
- Shells
- Broken furniture
- Body parts
- Paintings
Uncommon Items
Chest
Eventually the chest (also including the shipwreck tag) will appear from the deep, typically containing the same modest loot associated with other Treasure Chests.

Special Items
- One of the fourteen Special Fishing Net:
Those recovered from an Ancient SoS, however, will contain a Fabled Fishing Net , with which one can attempt to tackle the legendary Leviathan. Certain decorative artifacts can only be recovered in this way.
Starting with Publish 68.3, there is a small chance an artifact may be recovered as well.
