Ultima IX: Ascension Hints
Where can I find this treasure?
1 of 5: The two items circled on the map are a cave and a cannon site on the northwest coast of Buccaneer's Den. The cave is boarded up, so you must use the cannon to open it.
2 of 5: The compass coordinates of the cave are 60 degrees 20' S by 4 degrees 42' W.
3 of 5: It is almost impossible to reach the cannon, which sits up very high on a hill overlooking the ocean. It will take some fancy jumping and climbing to reach it. You must get to 63 degrees 25' S, 4 degrees 42' W to use the cannon.
4 of 5: Maneuver the cannon so that it is facing the cave and click on it to fire it. Save your game beforehand because it is a very tricky shot and you can easily run out of cannonballs.
5 of 5: Getting inside the cave once the entry is open is tricky too. See if you can get on top of a flat rock that sits just above the waterline. Then carefully place your cursor at a spot where you can jump up to the entrance.
