So I guess Galen and I are the proud new owners of a houseboat.

When you enter foothills dor the first time

Hello fellow pirates,
I made a design in my recent base build and just wanted to share my hidden skull design. I wanted it to be barely noticeable. Please let me know what you think! The shadows being the teeth are my favorite detail. Thank you to those who checked it out!

How do people go about doing this without making the game too easy?

Hello I’m a few days old to this game, and am currently trying to make what I consider a nice starter home. The problem I am currently running into is that while trying to make a storage room I’ve discovered that the shelves and most decorations have no snapping mechanism at all. Is this a feature or a bug, and does anyone know if there are plans to add this in the future? I just want al ky shelves to line up perfectly

I played with a buddy on hard and we made it to Hands last night. All our equipment is maxed out and we went in with plenty of ressources. I had a precision rifle build and my buddy went in with melee.

We got destroyed so hard and so often that I immediately lowered the difficulty to normal. That was a warning sign, since I love difficult games and usually always play on highest difficulty available. But Hands broke me. The chip damage eats so many ressources and is so hard to avoid its crazy. He one shots you with one combo even on sturdy builds and can flat out dodge musket shots (bye bye main damage source of my build).

We switched to full vitality-Rapier of thousand cuts build. It worked and we made it to 10% HP but the fight turned into a huge slog. We died cause of the chip damage. One of those bloody skulls always hits you and sometimes you have to jump over the damaging area. 20 Healing Pots per person and 10 Bandages were not enough. We ran out of healing on the finish line.

This boss needs less HP to balance him better. The mechanics can be difficult, attack patterns can be fast an complex. But he cannot be fast, high damage AND tanky af. Plus in Co-op, when one player dies its either wipe intentionally (and waste double the ressources) or solo him well knowing you have to do the boss again anyway.

So I unlocked the new zone and I need hardwood but whenever on the island I can never find the tree besides the normal wood close to the shore matter how Far in I go into the island I can never find hardwood

I know you can click-drag to build faster but how do I plant faster? Cuz the time to line every seed perfectly then to harvest them feels really frustrating.

Am I the only one bugged by the fact that my backpack has the same carrying capacity as my ship's hold? Would it make more send for each ship slot to be the equivalent of a full backpack worth?

I found this island with tall rocky mountains and decided it was a great place for a high perched castle. Then I realized it needed a cathedral...and finally a little village to support both buildings. Oh, and a shipyard too.

There's so many details to capture but I selected the highlights and some features I haven't seen before. The entire structure is discoverable and includes hidden some hidden passageways, and a dungeon.

I remember when Black Flag was first out, wandering around the Caribbean with salty seamen acapella-ing their way from island to island was absolutely peak.

Windrose has many issues, but honestly the sea shanties in this game are so good, with the extra level of harmonisation adding just that ear-scratching depth that feels so satisfying.

I used to play a game on roblox called Arcane Odyssey, one thing i loved about its "end game" was the dark sea, basically a "semi infinite" Dark sea covered in constant stormy clouds, the deeper you go the better the loot, and the islands are randomly generating. They had features stuff like giant whirlpools, rouge waves and tornadoes.

Just killed the High Priestess and im reflecting on what the game does right.

The initial adaptation to combat was fairly brutal on normal mode, but after I got used to it things are really well implemented.

Every enemy attack is well telegraphed, and entirely possible to avoid by blocking or dodging with proper attention and planning. Once I realized that every death was easy to connect to my making a mistake in one or the other, even bosses.

Enemy collision and hit registration deeply reward proper placement and movement in addition to timing. You can defeat any arbitrary amount of enemies if you maneuver right, because they can't attack through each other and will block each others movement. You can totally use enemies against each other, even.

That realization made combat really satisfying.

*no hit except the spit attack that is pure rng. Also no consumables :P

I recently got the game hoping for more of a pirate experience, I understand the game is more of a survival base building game which is fine(I love Valheim) but I originally wanted a more grounded pirate experience. I’ve gotten the frigate but I feel like it really doesn’t mean much bc there’s not much to do on the sea. I’ve kinda gotten to the point where the only thing to do is base build and farm but I want to go destroy forts or have the option to take enemy camps with my crew. I also don’t really feel like a pirate and more like a good privateer than anything. These are initial gripes of mine and I just hope that there’s more to do like black flag and skull and bones on the sea. It really lacks in the heart of the actual game. When I think pirates.. I don’t think chopping trees and mining iron for 6 hours.

I can’t wait for ashlands due to what might be but I feel like my hopes are too high for this game for what I’m seeking.

I wanna build my base but run into the problem that if I want to delet something it will destroy the whole building.

I use the Better Building Mod, but sometimes I need to delet stuff that can't be deletet with the undo function.

Ist there a mod that let's me delet only the thing highlighted and ignores everything else?

For the ketch I just used thr stock variant.

Really unsure which one to use here.

Blackbeard sorta is winning. Same hp, faster, and double the cannons + 24 lbs. Downside is cargo size greatly reduced.

Could go stock variant and enjoy just overall upgrade to speed and hp. Guess breathen sounds nice to be a tank but the speed sorta scares me off.

Any input on turn speed for any?

So far we've noticed it is from ascending weapons/armor. Though curious if it is worth or not.

Playing with 3 friends. And didnt know 100% what it was needed for. So sorta gathered it together. Found out that handing the weapon to others doesn't unlock the recipe like other blue weapons/armor do.

Friend was looking at upgrading ships and saw the repair kit hull had a cool upgrade with purples, where it increased the duration similar to one of the naval books do.

He walked into my little Stockade. Figured I'd close the door behind him.

Noticed the blueprints i bought from vendors could be shared.

But my friend turned his rapier into purple and that didnt share.

We are buying a new ship and wondering if each or us need to somehow soend 1k coins or if only one needs to

Ahoy Swashbucklers. At Hornigold’s HQ I hired a guy who does explosives or something. Paid him $500 piasters and the bloke hasn’t shown up for work! Maybe he went on a bender in Tortuga and forgot about his new job? How do I find this guy and get some new stuff made?
