Ocean currents are not gone as was stated in the patch notes. You can test this easily.

1. Fold your sail so you aren't affected by wind

2. point somewhere and hit t to autopath in a straight line.

3. Watch the speed bar of your ship fluctuate because currents still exist everywhere....

This test was done on a Volante Carrack. Please fix properly, we waited a long time for this patch.

I can concur on an Improved Epheria Sailboat. Massive fluctuations in speed with no winds at all on the meter. (North America Region)

I was hoping that this bug would be fixed in the latest patch, but it's not. Issue still persist in EU region.

Ocean currents and winds were important elements for adventurers who enjoy a life at sea, especially since the currents acted as routes along the ocean. These were elements that had to be be organically addressed depending on the situation during sailing. While the winds could be overcome by folding the sails of large ships, it was not easy to respond to the currents. Unfortunately, we could not provide positive experiences for adventurers taking their first steps into the ocean and captains who want to move along a certain route. Now that the currents have been removed, adventurers setting sail for the first time can easily reach their destination along their desired route.
  • Ocean currents that flowed in certain directions in the coastal and oceanic areas have weakened.
    • Removed the ocean current system that increased/decreased speed depending on the direction of ships.
    • Removed ocean current from the ship's helm UI.

This might be intended?
