More ways to get mystery seeds?

It feels weird to have all of these special and powerful trees exclusive to sunken chests. There should be more ways to loot them, like crab king dropping one, chance to find setpieces with them, ect.

I think it's pretty good as is. Gives a reason to go out and hunt for treasure, and gives treasure just this much more value. 

I think it's gonna be pretty cool, as it makes interacting with the ocean content more worthwhile, by finally providing things that are useful on land as well.

I think that’s exactly why its exclusive to sunken chests. People have wanted a good reason to hunt for sunken chests for loot that is great to seek, and the trees give a very good reason to hunt them down.

Really all I would want is for the methods to find the chests to be more reliable, especially from bottles. I really hope they look into adjusting the mechanics of bottle spawning to be more fun then sitting on a boat and hoping the bottles with treasures eventually spawn. The pirate caravan’s are a nice bonus, especially if you can force them to spawn via hostile flares

Currently I have no reason to sail or face the monkeys.  Now Klei will give me that purpose.  Therefore, I hope it continues like this.  In fact, it's good to remember that you can call monkeys in the same way as deerclops.

Trees give you a actual reason to hunt sunken chests. Not only that the existing loot is also feels better since its now extra stuff.

Only change I would suggest is bottle spawning frequency.

All I'm saying is, in shipwrecked, every single bottle message yielding a chest never broke the game. Could apply to dst as well. It's not the end of the world if every bottle spawned a chest and for the sake of "character lore" when you close the map, you read pearl's message.

An idea I had is that once giving the broken pearl to pearl, the bottles would have a much higher chance of spawning a chest, the world chest limit would increase, and the loot pool would shift a bit more rare things. Just an idea to add another reward for the pearled crab king/actually concluding the pre rift pearl story line. I could also see that post this event, you could get a wider range of generic loot from x marks the spots to reflect the higher amount of treasure in the world. But yeah, just an idea I had to add a world changing reward for a boss that insist forever paper and total damage negate.

The new pirate raids are an awesome idea, unironically one pirate raid with a chest now gives more loot than the entire island
