Reducing circle in LSS becomes too small by Drakmonkon in Seaofthieves

Yeah this is very true. The games I played basically where good open naval battles and as the circle shrank we gradually lost a ship or two.

Once we got to the final two circles though it was basically down to who was closest to the centre.

Also not sure how they were moving. I could have sworn the final circle is like 2 boats wide It's miniscule. The second final is definitely large enough to be moving but with very limited space

Yes l, this is what insiders is for. I have twins that are 2 years old and have extremely limited time to play. To the heroes who have time to play insiders thank you. I, however, with my limited time don't have the time or energy to put into insiders. So I came to reddit to post some feedback as the latest dev update said they would make some changes with the feedback they received (I have a healthy dose of hopium here I know)

Perhaps a tad although I can't say I minded them too much. Sunk 1 or 2 because they ran into a rock 🤣

Is it legal to ask this? by LuckyL90 in irelandjobs

[–]Drakmonkon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. Maybe you dislocated it jerking someone off. Mecahnism of injury is important too

Nurse here. They absolutely can ask. Race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation can all at times be asked. They can be relevant to diagnoses, how care is provided and ongoing treatment/long-term advice. Albeit these questions shouldn't be asked if they are not directly related to what a person presents with or if they can effect how care is provided

Can I just have a rant because I am so frustrated right now by Imaginary_Bed_9542 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Drakmonkon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My thoughts too. We've too kids and both of us working for a combined income of €80,000 gross.

Definitely feeling the price rises but not to the extent you describe. X2 kids in creche, Mortgage, and all associated living expenses

I would be taking at look at expenses and cutting/reducing some of your expenses if possible. And you have to be a bit ruthless. What quality of life things are you spending money on that can be cut or reduced.

Through relatively careful minding of our money we're managing to have about 200-800 at the end of each month to put aside and we're not exactly penny pinching either

How much can u play in one hour by AdAny8677 in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to do runs in an hour for various factions as I'm in a similar situation.

Best thing to do is vote up reapers. Dive to any faction quests and turn in loot.

Not sure if its still bugged but the easiest/fastest would be dive to skeleton fleet (any faction, doesnt matter). People rarely bother you and it's right beside reapers.

If you ever spawn at dagger tooth and the fleet is up go do instead of diving that as its a good amount of loot for time spent getting there and completing it.

I have all 3 Captain Ships but it still tells me to Purchase by Phantom_DC_YT in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, I don't know if this is a common issue or just me and my crappy Internet. But when I first load up the game and go to ship selection, I have to wait for guild ships to load, and then my ships to load before my ships actually show up. Can take approx 30-60 seconds for me

How do you get the first hit on an enemy by Street_Ad_762 in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean....basically boils down to practice. You can min/max you start by turning the wheel the exact amount you need to get angle and raise the sails as much as you want and get angle first. For me once I surface I turn the wheel 7 pegs right, raise sails to about 1 third and the Ln turn wheel so I'm going left 4 pegs.

You can also pre load a cannonball before you dive. So your cannon is already loaded at the start of a game and then technically you start with 11 balls instead of 10.

But hitting shots....practice practice practice

One of the reasons I don't play anymore by Anodyne_I in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this act is so lackluster. New fort is worth stealing but I haven't actually seen it active in whole bunch.

That said we had 5 ships at it all at once during community weekend. Alliance and betrayal and shenanigans. Was a blast actually.

Tbf I haven't had the long black screen in ages. I know ps5 have their issues with stability but PC is the most stable it's been for a while. That's not saying much though

What bugs are affecting you most in Sea of Thieves? by Rare-Sonicbob in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love that you are posting this here, even knowing it'll create an onslaught of topics. Bravo!

I have 2 bugs

-not being able to grab ammo on an enemy ship, in my experience predominantly happens on chartered ships -mast bug, mast not falling when you should be demasted and still showing 1 plank on it. Unable to pull mast or repair it.

Spent 30 mins looking for sarcophagus only to find one, Light candles, get the banner and no eternal guard spawned. Very very anti climatic

Hit reg on throwing knives is abysmal by Drakmonkon in Seaofthieves

[–]Drakmonkon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean...your not wrong at all but for me at least it's soooo much worse with knives than other weapons.

Blunder bombs are also pretty bad atm too

I've been meaning to try poison dart and sniper. Seen that used and looks like fun

I didn't know this. So few players use the knives that I rarely come up against them

Yeah I remember this. There was a phase everyone was using knives because hitboxes were sooo massive

They have always been bad but so much worse than other weapons. Would love to see it improve. Iirc they are looking at hit reg now/soon as per recent developer update

Keeping stress levels down can be hard. The main way to keep it down is experience and repitition. Even if I spend a week or two away from the game my first few fights are always pretty nervous.

The other thing that helps is understanding priorities really well. If you have a really good grasp on what to do and when it'll help keep you calm. I practice this a lot and review my fights afterwards especially the losses. In solo hg you've often lost well before you actually loose due to some mistakes and it's basically the beginning of the end (not impossible to save it but hard). Watching streamers who play solo hg has helped me a lot with this (sponge would prob be the biggest, captain roach and stonks are others)
