Plans: Tracker's Jacket is a single-use Recipe Paper in Windrose. Reading it permanently unlocks the Tracker's Jacket, the Rare torso piece of the Tracker's Leathers set, at the Armor and Clothing Workshops.
How Recipe Papers Work
Recipe Papers are looted in the world: most often from chests in pirate camps, ruins in the Coastal Jungle, and points of interest scattered across the archipelago. Some merchants in Tortuga also rotate a small selection of plans through their stock. The paper is consumed when it is read. Reading the paper adds the listed entry to the relevant crafting station's recipe list permanently for that character, with no further fee.
What it Unlocks
Reading the paper unlocks Tracker's Jacket at the Armor and Clothing Workshops. The jacket is the chest slot of the Tracker Set, a leather sustain set whose bonuses boost healing effectiveness and add damage resistance. The base craft uses light leather materials and can be upgraded through higher tiers for more Defense.
What the Jacket Provides
Once crafted, the Tracker's Jacket scales across three craft tiers, from base item level 1 up to item level 11 through upgraded recipes:
Tier | Item Level | Defense |
|---|---|---|
Base | 1 | 100 DEF |
Second | 6 | 160 DEF |
Third | 11 | 200 DEF |
Where to Get the Plan
Besides world loot, this plan is also listed as a vendor purchase from the Rogue Buccaneers Provisioner once you have built enough reputation with the Rogue Buccaneers. The listed price is 200 Piastres. Confirm current vendor stock and cost in your own build, as faction stock and pricing can shift between updates.
Source | Faction | Cost |
|---|---|---|
200 Piastres | ||
World loot | Any | Free (looted) |
Where to Find
Drops most reliably from looted chests in pirate camps and ruined points of interest, with occasional appearances in cargo crates from defeated NPC ships and in random trader stock at Tortuga. Once read, the unlocked entry is bound to the character that read it; share-base members must each find and read their own copy.

Tips
If you are building the full Tracker Set, read this plan at a base near the Armor and Clothing Workshops so you can craft the jacket immediately after unlocking it.
Carry duplicates as trade bait. Until a base stockpiles every recipe paper for a building set, an extra copy is a strong barter chip with other crews.
Read papers at a base, not on a ship. Some plans add bulk decoration sets that flood the crafting menu, and being at a workshop helps preview new entries immediately.
Once read, the unlock is permanent for that character. Reading a second copy does nothing, so a duplicate paper is best traded or sold.
