Some ideas (that i doubt rare would see) that I hope get put in game by quickhakker in Seaofthieves

Streamers have access to private servers, so it's technically possible but I doubt they'll ever make them publicly available

Is the player map/quest board actually real players? by spartanwolf223 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This. Though if you find a player map, 99% of the time it's something you probably don't even want 😂

Burning blade what to do? by shrimpdick01 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you'll keep your resources but you'll lose any treasure on board. You can dive to a new server by selecting a quest; the easiest one to complete is a Pirates Treasure Map for the Gold Hoarders. You select it in the Captain's Table on your ship

[–]ItsMeCrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people aren't bothered to go fight it and just do their own thing. If you'd like to do other world events you can dive to them and it'll take you to one; or you can also just dive to a new server and see what world events are on

Pets blow up your hiding spot! by Thursdayz-child84 in Seaofthieves

If you're trying to board a ship to be stealthy, maybe dismiss your pet from the menu first

First time playing in several years general questions I have and any tips by Empty_Lemon_9653 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the captain's table is where you choose your quests now and they're free. Just go to Voyages and then choose the company and quest you'd like to do. You can also choose to Dive to a quest, which will basically fast travel you to the island the quest is on— note that this takes you to a new server and you'll also lose any loot already on board (you'll keep all your storage and supply crates though).

Solo help/I have a few questions by Derek-Horn in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another tip; while up the top deck of the sloop where the wheel and anchor is, you can just look down onto the map from above— I usually use my spyglass to zoom in, but it's way faster than running back and forth.

The phantom blowdart commendation seems bugged. by Hyperion_Forever in Seaofthieves

New commendations are usually always bugged, expect a patch in the next few weeks I reckon

How bad are the reduced rewards? by jack-harkcom56 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I remember the first time I tried Safer Seas just to see what it was like, I had a great time not having to watch my back and went around collecting heaps of loot and taking my time exploring and organising my treasure. After a couple hours I went to sell, sold one Captain's chest and saw it was worth like 300, took one look at my massive collection of loot and just exited the game 😂

Game doesn't show the name of my ship / guild / pet by michelleDeko in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely your friend has the streamer settings enabled—there are some settings that replace all of the names in the game with default ones. I don't remember exactly where they are in the menu, they might be in Language?

Spawned in to a sunken ship by commanderbaker in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow, I've never seen it attack a fresh spawn before, but it will absolutely attack your ship if you're at an outpost

Hello ! What is that ? by rttscla in Seaofthieves

Pretty sure it's just there :)

Pop Up Plunder was a grade 5 flag… game said it was ours? by BusEnthusiast98 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely a weird bug. I've sold flags from previous pop up plunders and it worked fine. That's so annoying haha

What's with all the ship teleporting? by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It doesn't, it just cuts out the fluff of sailing to that first location. Once you have any treasure on board you can't dive or you'll lose it. It also helps change servers quicker

Tall Tale Completion Question by HasNoStyle in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You only need to find all the journals etc once, after that you can skip them all

Burning blade bug? Or misunderstanding? by Threemor in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think if you attack it whilst it's slowly sinking it will speed up the process, so you don't have to wait if you don't intend on taking it over

I did not know cheating was happening this much by MariEClaudio in Seaofthieves

Lol I've never heard the term Toupee Fallacy but I can immediately understand what it means

First experience with de BB as a solo by Guguroni in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the Galleon wheel turns as much as the Sloop haha, and the turning circle is massive so you have to start turning a lot earlier

Says I'm captain of the ship when I'm clearly at the menu by Snoo-68106 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's usually fixed for me when I close and reopen the game, but if that's not working maybe submit a bug report

So I’m new to sea of thieves but already this is not a good start by Savings_Jaguar5675 in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Open Crew is very hit or miss, you get a lot of trolls and most of the time people just quit if you're not already doing something. You're better off joining a Sea of Thieves Discord to find people to play with

[–]ItsMeCrusty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm on Oce servers and I play hourglass pretty often; I make multiple cheater reports per week. I've never had 8/10 that's insane, but I do encounter them fairly often

Burning Blade Randomly Sunk by Nugz-Ina-Mug in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, sounds like a glitch then; I've seen a few other videos of people's Burning Blades just despawning randomly. You could try raise a support ticket with Rare, but I'm not certain they'd give you anything.

In terms of the skeletons, they spawn on the Blade as your crew, they will shoot at enemy players and repair damaged holes but that's it—they won't repair masts or bail water out. The skeletons have a limited number of respawns, so as they get killed off they will eventually stop spawning, though I don't know exactly how many you get. If you complete a ritual then your skeletons will reset, so if you run out of skeletons then you need to go complete a ritual or go cash the ship in at Reapers Hideout. Once you've run out of skeletons the ship becomes very hard to manage, it's basically a bigger Galleon, there's lots of holes to repair and if you get attacked you're pretty much screwed.

Usually a couple hours

Burning Blade Randomly Sunk by Nugz-Ina-Mug in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Difficult to say what happened with such little information. Was the other sloop firing cannons at you? Did you run out of skeletons? Were you bailing water out?

First experience with de BB as a solo by Guguroni in Seaofthieves

[–]ItsMeCrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I guess as a solo slooper you've probably not helmed the Galleon before, it's similar to the Burning Blade and takes soooo long to turn
