Aztec High Priest, Silverspike, Silent Assassin Blacksmithing tips:

Yeah, that helps, thanks.

I'm missing a few gifts but here's my tests:
(Cannon)
Giant Pearl + Eyepatch + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Eyepatch + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Eyepatch + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Dual Scimitars + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Dual Scimitars + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Dual Scimitars + Coast Guard
(Jolly Roger)
(Ship Helm)
Giant Pearl + Compass + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Compass + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Compass + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Bone Necklace + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Bone Necklace + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Bone Necklace + Coast Guard
(Melee Scimitar)
(Pirate Monkey)
Giant Pearl + Chinese Pirate Sails + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Chinese Pirate Sails + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Chinese Pirate Sails + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Rabbit Skull Bandana + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Rabbit Skull Bandana + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Rabbit Skull Bandana + Coast Guard
(Boxing Gloves)
(Pirate Tombstone)
Giant Pearl + Zombie Compass + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Zombie Compass + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Zombie Compass + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Zombie Dagger + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Zombie Dagger + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Zombie Dagger + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Bandit Gloves + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Bandit Gloves + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Bandit Gloves + Coast Guard
Giant Pearl + Captain's Rum Flask + Ancient Divesuit
Giant Pearl + Captain's Rum Flask + Juggernaut
Giant Pearl + Captain's Rum Flask + Coast Guard

 

According to this, Juan agrees with my guess. But I still say it's a toss up because of the next level unlock.
We need to find someone that hasn't gotten to Atlantis yet who can definitely tell us.

Okay, I got it. You were right.
Discover th' Underwater Cave o' Red Pearls opens up at level 175. So the adventure drop IS the Red Pearl Compass.

 

I'll look to see if anyone in my Armada or clan knows.
EDIT: I sent a message to a few.

 

Check my edit of the last message I posted above.

 

So if this Secret Recipe is = Gift + Blacksmith Item + Red Pearl Compass (level 175 drop), then all we have to do is figure out the gift.

This is what I have so far:

silver hook + coast guard + red pearl compass
silver hook + juggernaut + red pearl compass
silver hook + ancient diver + red pearl compass

compass + coast guard + red pearl compass
compass + juggernaut + red pearl compass
compass + ancient diver + red pearl compass

parrot + coast guard + red pearl compass
parrot + juggernaut + red pearl compass
parrot + ancient diver + red pearl compass

cannon + coast guard + red pearl compass
cannon + juggernaut + red pearl compass
cannon + ancient diver + red pearl compass

 

compass is 195 not 175

 

I am afraid you are wrong. When Atlantis opens, it opens the first two levels at 135. The giant pearl is at 155. The red pearl compass is at 175. There are two more levels after that which are 195 and 215 respectively. Level 235 cannot be on Atlantis because it opens up Port Royal. So if you count backward from Port Royal, you will see what I mean.

Do you have the recipe for the Silver spike yet? I doubt it.

 

Here are more that I have tried that have failed:

dual scimitars + coast guard + red pearl compass
dual scimitars + juggernaut + red pearl compass
dual scimitars + ancient diver + red pearl compass

ship helm + coast guard + red pearl compass
ship helm + juggernaut + red pearl compass
ship helm + ancient diver + red pearl compass

bone necklace + coast guard + red pearl compass
bone necklace + juggernaut + red pearl compass
bone necklace + ancient diver + red pearl compass

I don't have the eyepatch and the jolly roger gifts.

 

So if we make a list of the Gifts that have been tested with the Red Pearl Compass and all 3 Blacksmith items (Coast Guard, Juggernaut, Ancient Divesuit)...
(in order on the Gifts page - items in parentheses haven't been tested)
Parrot
Silver Hook
Cannon

Dual Scimitars
(Jolly Roger - I don't have it...)
Ship Helm
Compass
Bone Necklace
(Melee Scimitar - I don't have it...)
Pirate Monkey
Chinese Pirate Sails
Rabbit Skull Bandana
Boxing Gloves
(Pirate Tombstone - I don't have it...)
Zombie Compass
Zombie Dagger
Bandit Gloves
Captain's Rum Flask
(Captain's Spy Glass)
(Lucky Shovel)
(Peg Leg)
(Captain's Hook)
Boat Cat
Bronze Eagle
(Evil Eye Talisman - Secret Ninja said that wasn't it)
(Lion Figurehead)
Ship's Bell
Boat Rat
Boat Dog
Letter of Marque
Sea Turtle
(Pirate Captain Hat)
Bottle of Grog
Pirate Telescope
Treasure Chest
(Mistletoe)
(Lump of Coal)
(Rudolph)
(Frankincense)

That's what I've seen on the forums so far. I'll keep editing and updating this as we learn more.

 

Red Pearl Compass Attempts

So from previous posts, I have gathered we have tried the Blacksmith items from the level with the Red Pearl Compass and the gifts listed below...

Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Dual Scimitars
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Ship Helm
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Bone Necklace
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Silver Hook
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Compass
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Parrot
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Cannon

and now to add to it the following

Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Treasure Chest
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Topaz Dagger
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Boat Ferret
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Ancient Chest
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Jade Gemstone
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Pirate Telescope

Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Boat Dog
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Boat Rat
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Ships Bell
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Bronze Eagle
Blacksmith + Read Pearl Compass + Boat Cat

 

I think you skipped a few.
I'll try a few of those combinations later.
Hey, do you have any of the ones I passed over in my last post?

 

Blacksmith recipe trends

So here is the breakdown on the known recipes..

Aztec High Priest= Adventure Drop Item + Blacksmith Item (made from 2 purchased items and a gift)

Silent Assassin- Gift + Boss drop + Blacksmith (Adventure drop and purchased item)

Prison Transport= Gift + Gift + Blacksmith (Adventure + Boss)

Chinese Sea Dragon = Adventure + Blacksmith (Gift + Adventure + Purch)

Ministrel Maiden = Gift + Blacksmith (Gift + Purch)

Hope that helps with our logic process

 

I did skip a few, the Lion Figurehead and the Pirate's Captain Hat because I only have one of these items and I want to make sure that it does not require multiple items in the recipe (some recipes call for multiples of a single item to create).

 

But if you get the correct items, even if you do not have enough, the game will tell you!
The recipe will *NOT* be unlocked until you get all the items, but the Blacksmith *WILL* tell you that you were correct.

 

Some thougths

Guys,

You have done a mammoth work and must be recognized and appreciated.

Just reflecting, let me propose the dev people at Kano to invite us for next round of secrets recipes but with a twist...

What about if there is a bonus after completing x numbers of secret recipes, that is, a more detailed hint where exactly to find that "nightmare" combination or create another set of achivements fro completing the secret recipes...

The game has evolved tremendously; no longer only a "fighting" game but also a strategy and mind challenging scenario.

Just some thoughts...

The 1 and only

 

I now have the pirate monkey and the boxing gloves. So I will try those and get back to you.

 

Okay, you can cross the following off the list of gifts also cuz they don't work.

pirate monkey
boxing gloves
zombie dagger
captain's rum flask

The rest I don't have yet.

 

Okay, here's the gifts that haven't been tested with Blacksmith + Red Pearl Compass:
Jolly Roger
Melee Scimitar
Pirate Tombstone
Captain's Spy Glass
Lucky Shovel
Peg Leg
Captain's Hook
Evil Eye Talisman - if you want to be thorough
Lion Figurehead
Pirate Captain Hat
Mistletoe
Lump of Coal
Rudolph
Frankincense

 

Tried all but the lump of coal. Can someone try that one? I even did the Evil Eye Talisman.
How about the gifts that are the secret bag?
Or does this one need a different item to go with the gifts and the blacksmith? We have started on the Giant Pearl, shall we continue with that?
I am thinking that logically the item should be the Atlantis Blade or the Marlinespike.

 

got lump of coal and it is a no go as well.
back to the drawing board.
