Chapter 7 - Exploration. A route-tracking chapter for 100 Days At Sea players covering islands, Volcano, Ice Region, Rival Rigs, Radio Towers, route notes and best-seed caution.
Field notes
Read this before the table. It is the decision the cards and rows are there to support.
100 Days At Sea is built around sea travel, islands, a raft you can build, weapons, and enemies. That is enough to plan a session. It is not enough to publish a coordinate map. A single video, a single lucky run, or a labeled image can describe one route without proving the next crew will see the same islands in the same order. This chapter is the place to record what your run actually did. Write the day, the direction you left the raft, the name on screen if one appears, the enemies, the resources worth carrying, any badge popup, and whether you made it back. Two runs that match are the start of a route. One run is a story. The walkthrough is where a repeating log can later become a day-by-day order. Until it repeats, the log stays more honest than a map pin.
The useful record fits on a few lines. Day number. What the raft can survive if you are gone. What you are carrying for health, a weapon, and the trip home. The first island or region name you can actually see. What tried to kill you. What was worth picking up. Whether a badge popped. Whether the same sequence showed up after a reset. Those fields turn arguments about best routes into something you can check. They also stop a fake seed post from wasting a whole attempt. If a guide cannot show a seed box in the client, it does not have a seed. Seeds is the page for that test. Bring the same habit back to this chapter when the route, not the seed box, is the thing you need to remember.
Starter islands are where the raft, the harpoon or gathering loop, and the first weapon either become a plan or become a rescue. Scout in short trips. Turn around while you still know the way to the raft. A long first voyage with no return point turns every enemy into a run ender. The beginner guide and raft chapter belong before any region with a boss name attached. Resources that keep the base alive outrank a rumor about a distant chest. If you find a named place, log it. If you only find open water and a fight you were not ready for, that is also a log entry: you left too early. Armor and a tested weapon, covered on Armor and Weapons, matter once the trip is longer than a lap around the starter water.
The Cooking With Golems badge says the Volcano can be unlocked by tossing in three golems. Beat The Heat names Lord of Lava as a boss. Those two public descriptions are strong enough to pack for a danger trip. They do not name the island order, the arena, the attack pattern, or the reward. Fire Golems is the community label attached to the three-golem step, and it still needs an in-game name check. Magma Chest and Magma Staff sit on the reward watchlist beside that route, especially where Fire Mage class notes mention a staff. Pack the trip the way Bosses describes: health margin, a weapon you have already fired, raft safety, and a retreat line. Healing matters here because a Volcano attempt is a bad time to discover you used every recovery item on the way.
King Of The Snow and the Arctic Rescue badge language support a boss and a penguin rescue in the Ice Biome. There Can Be Only One says three rival rigs can be found and defeated in one session. Separate public badges support repairing and flying a UFO, a laser mirror puzzle on a mothership, and alien ship combat. Treat each of those as a real objective and as an incomplete route. Bring weapons, a health reserve, a raft you can retreat to, and a screenshot plan. Radio towers show up in community route talk as a possible sequence puzzle. Log any tower you can actually see, including what you pressed and what changed. Do not copy a tower order from a title. The badge index is the source for the objective names. This chapter is the source for the blank route fields those badges leave open.
Public videos are useful when they show a place name, a badge, or a fight your log does not have yet. They are a poor map when one creator's update, class, or luck gets copied as the only route. Watch for the day count, the raft state, and the weapon in their hands before you copy a turn. Then run your own version only as far as your retreat plan allows. If your notes and the video disagree, your notes win for your session, and the disagreement becomes the thing to test next time. That is also how this chapter should grow: repeated logs, not a pasted coordinate list. When a route survives two sessions, move the repeating part into the walkthrough as a day checkpoint, and leave the one-off detour here as a lead.
A stable raft, a weapon you have tested on an ordinary enemy, something for recovery if you have found it, and enough sense of direction to get home. That is the packing list. Add a teammate when the objective is a boss badge rather than a gathering lap. Split roles if you are in a crew: one person watches the raft, one handles the fight, one writes the log. Turn around when health is the last hit, when you cannot see the raft and cannot name the direction, or when the trip has become a search for a chest you have never seen. The next pages after a clean scouting loop are Items for what you picked up, Bosses if a badge named a fight, and Seeds only if you found an actual seed input. A best-seed list with none of those fields is not a route.
Leaving on day one because a thumbnail showed a volcano. Trusting an island count with no screenshots. Publishing coordinates from memory. Spending the healing items on the way to the fight. Treating one YouTube title as the universal order of Ice, Rival Rigs, and radio towers. Ignoring the raft chapter because the map page looks more exciting. Each of those mistakes is a route problem, and each one is avoidable with the log. The game can still surprise you. The log is how the surprise becomes a guide instead of a rumor. Bring the same notes when you read the beginner route so the early days and the later regions stay one trip, not two unrelated articles.
Chapter intro
Quick answer
Current best route habit
Before leaving the raft, write down what you are carrying, which day it is, and what you want from the trip.
Most bad map advice comes from treating one run as universal. A route log helps you tell repeatable paths from one-off luck.
Player use
Pick the card that matches why you opened the page. It gives you the next safe move without asking you to trust untested drops, stats or route claims.
If you are starting now
Use your raft as the return point before exploring a new island or region.
If you are stuck
Only trust seed claims with a visible seed input and repeat-test notes.
If you are comparing advice
Resources, enemies, progression and possible badge goals Bring or check: Stable raft, basic weapon, return plan
If you want the next chapter
Check seed input and repeat tests before trusting a route.
Guide
Do these before chasing rare drops, region mysteries or long routes.
Use your raft as the return point before exploring a new island or region.
Record Day number, island/region name, enemies, resources and badge popups if they appear.
Use public badges to set real objectives for Volcano, Ice Biome, Rival Rigs, UFO and mothership content, then record the route details the badges do not provide.
Ignore best-seed lists that do not show a seed input, repeat test or route screenshot.
Bring weapons, healing supplies and enough raft safety before chasing distant region leads.
Guide
Read this like a route page in a guidebook: order matters.
Step 1
Do: Step 1: stabilize the raft before exploring. If the raft is weak, read the raft chapter first.
Avoid: Skipping the setup step because the next clue looks more exciting.
Next: SeedsStep 2
Do: Step 2: make short scouting trips. Return before low health, hunger or enemy pressure turns the trip into a rescue attempt.
Avoid: Treating a lead as a shortcut before your run is stable.
Next: Full WalkthroughStep 3
Do: Step 3: log every island or region with Day, screenshots and what you found.
Avoid: Treating a lead as a shortcut before your run is stable.
Next: Build Your RaftStep 4
Do: Step 4: compare your route with public videos only after you know what your own run showed.
Avoid: Treating a lead as a shortcut before your run is stable.
Next: Bosses and RaidsStep 5
Do: Step 5: move repeatable discoveries into your next run plan and leave one-off route claims on the mystery board.

Guide
Use this during play so you know what worked, what was risky, and what is worth repeating on the next run.
Day number and raft direction before leaving
Island or region name shown on screen
Enemy pressure, useful resources, badge popups and whether the route repeated
Guide
These are the mistakes or encounters most likely to wreck a run.
Why it matters: A fake seed can waste your whole run and send you chasing a route that does not repeat.
Prepare: Only trust seed claims with a visible seed input and repeat-test notes.
Common trap: Trusting a best-seed list
Why it matters: A long trip with no return plan turns every enemy or hazard into a run-ending mistake.
Prepare: Scout short routes and return before the raft feels far away.
Common trap: Leaving the raft too early
Why it matters: Videos can be real but still show one run, one update or one player's choices.
Prepare: Use videos as comparison leads and keep your own route log.
Common trap: Copying one video as a universal route
Guide
These are the traps that make a run feel unfair even when the route was avoidable.
Why it hurts: A fake seed can waste your whole run and send you chasing a route that does not repeat.
Better move: Only trust seed claims with a visible seed input and repeat-test notes.
Why it hurts: A long trip with no return plan turns every enemy or hazard into a run-ending mistake.
Better move: Scout short routes and return before the raft feels far away.
Why it hurts: Videos can be real but still show one run, one update or one player's choices.
Better move: Use videos as comparison leads and keep your own route log.
Why it hurts: Bad map details make the whole guide feel fake.
Better move: Use route notes first, coordinates only after evidence is strong.
Why it hurts: Volcano/Ice/Rival leads are likely riskier than starter islands.
Better move: Bring weapons, healing, raft safety and a retreat plan before chasing them.
Guide
These are public/community leads worth watching. They are framed as clues, not official facts.
The public Cooking With Golems badge says the Volcano unlock involves tossing in three golems.
Current best read: Use the trigger as a real objective, but keep the route, location and repeatability open until gameplay evidence shows them.
Open chapterThe official badge says golems; Fire Golems remains the community name to verify during the Volcano route.
Current best read: Record the enemy label, spawn point and whether all three golems count before treating the community name as final.
Open chapterThe Beat The Heat badge confirms a Lord of Lava boss exists.
Current best read: Prepare for the fight, but do not trust unsourced health, attacks or drop tables.
Open chapterKing Of The Snow and Arctic Rescue confirm a boss and penguin rescue objective in the Ice Biome.
Current best read: Use those goals to plan the trip; exact route and environmental mechanics still need gameplay notes.
Open chapterThe There Can Be Only One badge confirms three rival rigs can be found and defeated in one session.
Current best read: Use three rigs as the completion target, but do not publish coordinates that the badge does not provide.
Open chapterThree public badges confirm repairing and flying a UFO, a laser mirror puzzle on the mothership and alien ship combat.
Current best read: Treat these as real objectives while keeping the route order and exact locations evidence-gated.
