Chi

Chi globes are a Trade good obtained from the Player-owned port minigame. It is used in the creation of Seasinger's equipment. To get this good the player must have unlocked The Hook region. The maximum amount of Chi globes a player can store at one time is 250. Any successful voyages after this will not increase the total.

In addition to Standard voyages, Chi globes can be obtained through the following methods (see Special voyages):

• Completing resource voyages from The Occultist and The Tengu
• Completing the following joint voyages:
  • The Occultist and The Missionary
  • The Memory and The Occultist
  • The Tengu and The Convict
• As a one time reward from the following:
  • 20 Chi globes (and 10 Koi Scales) is a reward for completing The Memory's storyline
  • 25 Chi globes is a reward for completing The Occultist's storyline
  • 50 Chi globes (and 50 Ancient bones) is a reward for completing the Quin final mission
  • 50 Chi globes (and 50 Plates) is a reward for completing the Guardians of the World final mission

If a player wishes to farm Chi globes, it is recommended to build two Occultist statues and one Missionary statue and use their joint mission.

Players may also buy individual units in the form of ports chi packs from Boni on Waiko after the miniquest Impressing the Locals. These cost 2 taijitu and 1,000 chimes each. Wearing any four (or more) of a superior seasinger armour set (including augmented parts, but not weapons) grants a passive ability, Call of the Sea, which gives a 1/2,000 chance to obtain a ports resource crate when defeating an opponent. The rewards for Daily Challenges occasionally includes 5 ports resource crates.

Assuming GE price, each chi unit can be valued at 115,457.6.
