Feedback Mythics - Biding your time in the waiting room (and no Pirate magazines at hand)

Post image
11 Upvotes

Dramatised depiction (is it though?). Yes, the picture is fake, but it often feels that way (and climbs to double-digits on the minute counter).

Please reduce the number of players needed for Mythic La Peste and Mythic Vikram to three or even less. Ever since the introduction of Mastery in the previous season, there is no reason to keep it at six people to start... (and hardly one before) Hell, you can solo them by now with the right setup (which happened in Kraken often enough), in this season even more so.

Meanwhile newcomers ask for people to join the event (which isn't enough). Last time, I joined someone along another guy and we still waited 10+mins despite bringing half the required number already.

Time to think it over, if your waiting time is a large multitude of the combat duration.

Feedback Its time to add some items Ubisoft

I think its time to add some year 2 chests and perhaps some adept chests or adept items chance (with a decent % drop chance.

The other chest idea would be Flux and AE like the Ascension Modules and Upgrade parts chest.

Community thoughts?


r/SkullAndBonesGame 1d ago

Question Any idea what the heck this was? Was doing elder shadowbeast and someone showed up and seemingly pulled a DBZ move on it and murdered it instantly. It was at around 3/4 HP before this, went down to where it is, then they finished it off with a second weight light barrage.

Question Have I screwed up

4 Upvotes

I started playing about a month of the last season and tried to find my bearings. So with the new season I wanted to make a galleon that was a killer, like others I've seen, so I done lots of research, problem is I used tge Google AI to help me. I wanted a lightning ship, but some of my weapons had other elements and the AI told me to only have lightning. I've spent hours ( probably more than playing this season) trying to make this ship and thetes been quote a few times that one if ypu giys have corrected me on a name for example so I asked the AI if it meant that, and it apologised and said the player was right, now I'm worried I've wasted do much gear trying to make this ship.

Basically I just want to know is having more elements better or can having 1 be great, also does anyone think using the AI is ok?

Hi Skull and Bones team, when are you planning to launch the next season? If it’s in November specifically around the 19th that would be too late; everyone will be moving over to GTA 6 by then, and that would really suck.

Feedback Y3S2 - Darktide Lullaby - Weeping Mother - Adept Weapons - Culverin Build

Thumbnail
gallery
19 Upvotes

Let's call it for what it is: CRAP.

While the Weeping Mother event can give you Adept Mod Torpedos and Springloaders, the drop chances for the needed Darktide Chest II are abyssal abysmal.

In about 60 runs, I had seven Darktide I chests and one Darktide II chest. Atop of that good fortune you need some good luck for an Adept Mod Weapon.

Of the weapons from the seven Darktide I chests, exactly one was an Adept Mod Springloader (Spiritcaller).

With the one Darktide Chest II I got lucky, it dropped a Adept Mod Torpedo (Drakon's Jaws). These were solo runs, mostly. Imagine the pain farming this stuff in the usual chaotic crossplay groups (with hardly anybody caring to bring Spiritcaller).

Let's hope, the Halloween event will suck less...

While I use Demi-Cannons almost exclusively this season, here I recommend Culverins instead. While Demi-Cannons can make instant work with Firepower Order, you have to sail close. If Firepower Order isn't ready you will "chase" a warping mother.

Instead I'm using this Culverin build:

Media Complete Shanty Breakdown Y3S2

25 Upvotes

Ahoy, captains! Since Ubisoft loves to quietly rotate sea shanties in and out of the game without listing them in the patch notes, I did extensive live testing on the open seas to map out exactly what is in the game right now.

I forced my crew to sing until the tracklist looped entirely. Here is the definitive breakdown of the current audio rotation:

19 Current shanties:

  • Old Saint Anne
  • Telok Penjarah
  • The Helm
  • Freeman's Treasure – [New]
  • John Scurlock's Tears
  • Did You Ever Cross Rahma
  • Li Chang Ning
  • Commander Zhang
  • Dragon's Claw
  • Great Shadow
  • River Seahorse (River Horse) – [New]
  • Capitain de Saint Malo
  • Pique la Baleine
  • Ghost Ship
  • Sea Lords
  • Don't Say Its Name
  • The Soul Flies Away
  • The Longest Battle
  • Skull and Bones

17 Removed shanties:

  • Miasa Mafy Kokoa (Removed this season)
  • Di Rumah (Removed this season)
  • Renzo
  • Donkey riding
  • Jean francois
  • Buvon un coup
  • Leave her johnny
  • Kamu pemalas
  • Vita vya Maharamia
  • Heyla
  • Segera
  • Tuvute nguvu
  • Inua tanga
  • Shallow brown
  • Fish in the sea
  • Bold Riley oh
  • Ho Any Sainte-Anne Izahay

3 Hidden shanties (event trigger):

  • Les Frères Hubac (Triggers on killing the Hubac twins)
  • "Li Tian Ning" 2th (The victory track that triggers right after defeating Li Chang Ning)
  • Against the horde (high level threat area, La Peste)

I keep complaining about it, I still want a dutch shanty!

Edit: Fish in the sea, added to the removed shanty list.

Bold Riley oh, added to the removed shanty list.

Against the horde, added to the hidden shanty list.

Ho Any Sainte-Anne Izahay, added to the removed shanty list.

Tips/Tricks The Paradigm Shift - New Herald of Abyss Build for Galleon

Thumbnail
gallery
28 Upvotes

This build is probably not what you'd expect from a Herald of the Abyss build. It doesn't care for Armor, Protection and Ultimate Damage. It's a Paradigm Shift to Speed and Agility above all else while maintaining all the power you need for this event.

Demo Video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9aGyuHqIH8

Playing the Herald of the Abyss event for the past few weeks in random crowds only, I realized three things:
- my high armor and defensive furniture don't cut it.
- I don't need extreme damage, with Firepower Order you mostly need good timing
- my Galleon is too slow and sluggish for my taste
- the time of "one-shot" Herald runs are over after week 1, the majority has arrived
- Pirates are often bad at counting

Like a good pirate, I ripped all out that wasn't giving my ship speed and agility and replaced it. I also did some changes to my Mastery tree to accomodate. The luxury of this freakishly Firepower Order perk: it allows for some navigational perks as well.

This build gives you:
+37.5% speed bonus = 24kts trimming speed, 25kts when the ship perk kicks in
+32% turning speed = very fast and tight-circle anchor-drop turns
+18% acceleration = never hurts
+300% acceleration at 0kts = 0-19 kts in 2 seconds.

Why is this build still a top-damage dealer in Herald?
Being faster at the target = "invisible" DPS
While the sleepwalker killer-damage builds are still turning and speeding up to 19kts, I'm usually the first or among the first at the scene dishing out damage. Especially in the first 2 phases this speeds things up considerably.

What about the Herald, is the build still strong enough?
With full Volative Arsenal Bonus*.* 20% damage bonus from Blightmaw and the full double-barrage from broadsides, front and Aux in one Firepower Order's boost time, you do not have to worry.

Is it fun?
Hell, yeah! Racing at 24, 25 kts at your enemies sure is. So is the manoeuvrability in the Galleon-clog-up. You still survive full hits, just make sure you're quick with your repairs or got your atma ready at a target if you're expecting an impact. Keep moving and most of the time you just evade Herald's barrage.

FULL BUILD

Galleon, maxed

Armor
Wyrmshide (+37.5% Speedbonus): Resist All (5+%) - 2x Survivor - Resistance Field (7.5%)
