Barnacles & Black Powder Entrance

Barnacles & Black Powder Expedition is located directly bottom of Cutlass Keys. Its in-game recommended level is 60, signaling that this is an endgame Expedition designed for characters who have reached Level 60 and have solid gear and a grasp of their role in an Expedition. As this Expedition is an endgame Expedition it can drop up to Gear Score 600 gear so we recommend waiting until your High Water Mark is approaching 600 before entering.
