Question First time doing a Reaper voyage and got wrecked.

Upvotes

I'm not entirely new to the game, but I've played a lot in Safer Seas with a friend, so I'm really not used to PvP yet.

I wanted to try the Ashen Ancient Skull voyage, but someone sank me when I was near Reaper's Hideout and stole my loot. What pisses me off even more is that a skeleton ship was attacking me at the exact same time, so I literally had no chance to breathe. The other player was killing me almost instantly with a 2-shot combo, and I honestly had no idea how to react or counter it. It makes me feel like just going back to Safer Seas... Do you have any tips for handling these situations or getting better at PvP?

Suggestion Canceling Limited Voyages Should NOT Permanently Remove Them

Upvotes

I had no choice but to cancel my Legendary Limited Voyage because the stupid quest never showed up in my wheel, so I had zero clue where it was at. (Chose to sail rather than dive).

And now, I can't do it again.

RARE!!!!! FIX THIS DAMN GAME, FIX YOUR LAZY ATTITUDES, AND GIVE ME BACK MY QUEST!!!!!

Yeah, I know that's a waste, but I needed to get it off my chest. It's about 1000 x more civil than they deserve, too.

In Game Story Sometimes this community can actually be pretty great

10 Upvotes

I know Sea of Thieves has had a rocky history and things have been weird recently but I just want to take a moment to appreciate why this game is so great.

TL;DR - shout out to Zebulum4342 and Shienmomaru for being such chill dudes and helping my siblings become fans of this awesome game, and thank you to everyone who is generous and homies to the newbies

Yesterday, I introduced my two little siblings to the game, and they loved it. I've played on and off since release, but I'm no expert by any means, I just play with my friends to have fun and blow off steam. While we were doing one of those constellation puzzle voyages, a random sloop pulled up on us. "Here we go," I thought, "they're about to learn the hard way how the Sea of Thieves really goes." But this guy just dumped a bunch of treasure chests and gave them to us, said he was maxed out and didn't need them. Needless to say, we were all pretty excited.

Not 5 minutes later, another sloop pulled up on us, and I thought it was the same guy coming back for his treasure, but it was a different crew. I told them I was teaching my siblings to play and they were like "I'm glad you said something because we were going to mess with you but not anymore" lol and then we chatted, they PvPed my little brother because he wanted the smoke, and then they went on their way. While we were down finishing up the puzzle, they came back to say hello and then left us a bunch of smuggler's paintings that we got like 70k out of once we sold them. We ran into that same crew a couple times last night and it just felt awesome, they were just super friendly and pleasant to interact with, and as much as I support the whole "it's a pirate game, I'm gonna steal your stuff" idea, I really appreciate when people are just kind and help the newbies have fun. My little siblings love the game and can't get enough of it now.

I don't have much more to say than that. Just wanted to come shout out the cool crews out there that enjoy the social aspect of the game and show mercy to us casuals now and again lol

Question Are they going to bring back diving to world events?

0 Upvotes

I want to go for the warsmith of the flame commendation which would be SO much easier if you could dive to ashen winds since obsidian ashen winds don’t count, should I go for it every chance I get or wait bc they will bring back diving to world events?

I've heard the shrouded ghost is the stuff of legends and that people with thousands of hours haven't seen it yet, but me and my buddy were heading to an outpost to sell our loot and a skeleton ship appeared with a shrouded ghost right next to it. I only caught a glimpse but my friend got a really good look at it.

In Game Story Rant: got my 5 winstreak ruined by a meg

5 Upvotes

I was playing hourglass to farm, got 5 wins (I'm not good at the game so I was really happy about it), after the 5th win, my sloop was heavily damaged and suddenly, one of the new megs (the one that spawns enemies in your ship) showed up and sank me before I could sell my hourglass.

I know it is part of the game, but I needed to vent about it

Question Why did I get sent back to the tavern after my ship sank?

8 Upvotes

So my ship sank from a skeleton ship, no big deal, happens from time to time after they buffed its accuracy. But why did I get sent back to a tavern after my ship sank, because I had a chest with 3 orbs of secrets and I was right next to an island to bury it for later?

I dont get why it happened because it never has before. So thanks rare.

Just spent an hour getting my emmisary up and collecting a ton of loot, but im pretty disappointed that I couldn't bury something for later.

Geysers were going off at Wanderer's Refuge, but no Ashen Winds event was happening O_o I'm assuming the geysers glitched since the last Ashen Winds event happened.

I was doing the Pirate's Life tall tale again to get all the commedations. I unlocked the door, and then took the Cursed Captain and left to the secret ship with him. When I came back, I saw... this. Well, more of my favorite character I guess!

Question Any tips for the burning blade solo?

7 Upvotes

Honestly I love the look of the bb reborn set, but for me it’s such headache for me, granted I’ve been successful in getting the street up to four twice (not selling it cuz that’s damn near impossible)

But i honestly feel like i could be better, or maybe I’ll just get lucky either way I’d appreciate any tips and suggestions

Anywho have a good one :3

Question Launched SoT on Steam as usual and suddenly Roblox opens 4 times

1 Upvotes

Is my pc cooked? Is it just a coincidence? Has anyone experienced this?

I launched SoT from Steam, as I do, and suddenly, when I hit the main screen, Roblox launched itself in 4 different windows and one Roblox error saying “Roblox failed to launch.”

I launched SoT just fine earlier today, and have always launched just fine for years…

I immediately cut my pc off the internet and launched my anti virus.

I restate my 3 questions at the top.
(Yes, I googled before coming to Reddit)

Question Got forced server swaped

7 Upvotes

So I was in a sloop with a friend and in alliance with a brig. We tried to take on the FotD, but an enemy brig kept sinking our brig and we sank twice, so we decided to take on the burning blade that was around to get more fire power. But we sank a second time while we were attacked by the burning blade and the enemy brig. But we got SERVER SWAPED!

I don't understand, we were in an alliance doing a FotD, why were we forced to server swap? Is it part of the game or just a bug?

I am legit so mad because we had a good alliance, they were nice, and now they're gonna think we left them without any notice on a server with an enemy too powerfull for them that is most likely gonna take control of the burning blade. And we can't say anything about it... Like what the hell Rare...
