    @SeaOfThieves I actually think the sword pricing is fair for people who play every day and have completed every season. The rest actually seems cheap. The only issue is people with 50k will have the ferrymen set so won't be using the sword anyway

    @Donuttboy @SeaOfThieves I know! Duke only sells old event cosmetics. Larinna only sells pass cosmetics and old login bonuses. None of these will be reskins.

    @SeaOfThieves this is, without a doubt, one of the worst update videos ever. by any major live service title. how anyone, at any level, thought any of these decisions were good, is beyond me.

    @Giovann69642526 @SmokeBeardTV @SeaOfThieves to afford just the curse, nevermind a single other thing in BOTH of the black markets, and you have to remember that this is only the first black market drop. They intend to add more to it consistently, which will only make this issue worse.

    @Joe651750613863 @SeaOfThieves It's not even something is the issue. They're so unwilling to come up with new content that they just put already existing emporium cosmetics as drops. It's so lazy that I'd honestly rather no drops at all 😭 gold, renown, and the voyage of "luck" are useless fillers as well

    @daxingtontf @GreedoGaming @SeaOfThieves Honestly, I don’t see how that’ll help. The game will always have problems because some people sink and cry that hackers sunk them, when in actuality it was a better opponent. Not everyone is hacking to get a one up on others.

    I’ve run into cheaters maybe a handful of times over the years. @SkeleCurseIRL is absolutely right, #seaofthieves doesn’t have a cheater problem, it has a perception problem. The lack of game knowledge has people calling cheats for what is just really good gameplay

    @SeaOfThieves So broken as usual sea of failures. Completed one did all the deeds and zero rep and also got o compensation for the loot or for turning the item to reapers, also while sailing was attacked by an invisible Meg after my rowboat from the garrison decided to disappear on stream

    The sea has a way of turning simple plans into long nights. It started plain enough. Just the two of us on a sloop, sails trimmed and pockets empty, heading out with the simple thought of running a few garrisons and seeing what fortune the night might offer. The water was calm, the sort of calm that usually means trouble is waiting somewhere ahead. The first garrison came into view through the haze of the horizon, but we weren’t the first to arrive. A galleon sat there already four pirates busy with the fort. I shot over from the sloop, landing quiet at the top to scout things out. Word was these forts sometimes hid a smuggler’s black powder keg. A nasty piece of work if used right. I searched around the island but couldn’t find it… until I looked up. There it was. Those poor fools had hauled the keg all the way up into their crow’s nest like a trophy. Probably thought it was safe there. I started taking shots from the island, trying to knock it loose, but the angle was wrong. Cannon ***** smacked wood and rope, but the keg wouldn’t go. My crewmate decided to do things the hard way. He fired himself out of the cannon toward their ship. Halfway through the air still sailing through the sky like a ragged comet he shot the harpoon. Somehow he caught the keg straight from the crow’s nest and dragged it down with him as he slammed onto their deck. A second later the whole galleon erupted. The blast threw splinters and pirates alike across the deck. By the time the smoke cleared he’d cut down all four of them in the chaos. Their ship sank fast, slipping beneath the water like it had never belonged there. We finished the fort without much trouble after that. Rather than move on, we sailed a short distance off to let the garrison reset so we could run it again. While we waited, sails appeared on the horizon. Same galleon. They came back hungry. We tried the keg trick again, but this time fate wasn’t interested. The powder slipped into the water and vanished before it could do any good. After that it turned into a long, stubborn fight. For nearly an hour we traded blows. Sometimes we had them dead in the water masts down, deck full of holes. Then somehow they’d recover, patch up, and swing the fight back the other way. Cannon fire cracked across the waves. Boards, repairs, missed shots, lucky shots. Over and over. Neither side would leave. Eventually I went for a board while they were busy trading cannon fire with my crewmate. I climbed their ladder unnoticed and dropped onto the deck. Steel did the rest. Four pirates fell in quick succession to the sword. By the time they realized what had happened, my crewmate had them locked in a death circle with the cannons tearing their ship apart. After that I only saw one of them return from the Ferry of the Damned. The rest never came back. I reckon they’d had enough of the night. The galleon sank for the second time. We sailed back to the garrison hoping to finish what we started… only to find the whole place glitched to the depths. No completion. No treasure. Our first stack lost to whatever strange curse the sea had placed on the fort. So we did what pirates do when fortune turns strange. We sailed for Morrow’s Peak Outpost and sold the Reaper flags we’d taken from the galleon. A small victory, but better than empty hands. While we were there, we spotted a brigantine messing around at the northern garrison. Curiosity got the better of us. We sailed over to see what they were about. The moment they realized we were coming, panic set in. They cut and ran, diving beneath the waves to escape after a short skirmish. But in their hurry they left something behind. A pile of treasure bigger than anything we’d earned all night, a MEGA stash! We hauled it aboard piece by piece under the dim lantern light, the sea quiet again at last. Not a bad way to end a long fight. #BeMorePirate #SeaOfThieves

    Is it just me, or is everyone experiencing terrible frame drops in #SeaOfThieves lately? I have a pretty decent PC setup, but my frames are dying whenever I’m fighting a Burning Blade or completing Ashen Garrisons. The lag when opening barrels and crates seems to be back as well. Looking back at old game clips, it used to run smooth as butter. Will it ever feel that way again? @SoT_Support

    @WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Other players have to put time and effort into multiple event weekends, while many players used this bug/glitch to buy everything right away, so these players (apparently including you) DID take advantage of that.

    @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The black and white is signal enough. I can’t believe that made it to a more prominent side of hourglass. I imagine that’s wildly triggering to a lot of people with any form of inner ear issue or sensitivity. Like who wants one long high pitch tone in your ear for 5 mins. Even if you don’t have sensory issues absolutely no one likes that haha

    @Common_Potatos @SeaOfThieves That's why they started it early this time. It's gonna take longer cuz there's less interest. Should honestly just lower the requirements, but I guess this is one way to fix it.
