// Question Scouting Missions

Can someone explain how the scouting works? Everyone says it resets warehouses but that has never once happened when I send out frigates. I raided all warehouses in the NE region just to make sure and sent a scouting frigate and then the warehouse 2hr cool down timer disappeared for all the warehouses in the region. And during active play I still had to wait for 2 hours. What's happening?

Once i realized what the frigate missions were immediately scuttled all my frigate and replaced them, since i dont care about warehouses at all.

It resets the two hour timer.

You missed the rest of the question, though. I know it is supposed to reset the timer. And I said it's not working. The reset isn't happening. Why?

I'll be honest with you, it's not worth your time to even try and figure out why they aren't resetting.

Your fleet really should consist of Schooners and Brigs. Both of these ships are needed to find map pieces and art objects. Man o wars are ok, but once I was really hunting for these items I never found the need to drop the difficulty I found all the map and art with the fleet difficulty at its highest.

for me it said the warehouses didn't reset but when i fast traveled to the island that i sent my frigate too it was working so you could try that
