Lately this has only been happening to my swashbuckler, but every time i move into a new area with my max lvl swashbuckler class, it takes a long time to load that area even though i have been to that specific area, for example: Ancient Tunnels. Idk what to do about it, and this does not happen to my other pirates, my privateer and buccaneer. If anyone knows what to do i would gladly appreciate it.

There are only 2 easily controllable things that I am aware of that can help in this regard.

Your backpack, and ship status.

Keep your backpack as slim and trim as possible, the fewer items the better.
Multiple houses, with lots of items can also contribute.
Does your Swash have a house, and other pirates not?

Make sure your ship is bottled when its not in use, it being unbottled can slow load times, as its part of your character loading even if your not near the skyway! ;)

Hmmm, keeping your ship bottled, that's a great tip. I never thought about that affecting loading. Nicely caught.
