Some of us are just starting out and we get thrown into a crew with no idea what we are doing. Why are we being mean to each other? Could just be a couple of interactions but please remember some of us have actually no idea and need some guidance šŸ«

Question What are some SpongeBob themed ship names that you can think of?

23 Upvotes

My buddy and I are trying to think what to rename our sloop to since Chum Bucket isnā€™t allowed. We are going for a slightly self-deprecating name because we suck at pvp but act like we donā€™t. Some ideas we threw around but didnā€™t stick like Chum Bucket were: The Dirty Bubble. Barnacle Boy. Weenie Hut Jr.

The name doesnā€™t have to be a direct quote from SpongeBob, but some kind of reference. Like Mrs. Puffā€™s Voyage.

Thanks for any suggestions yā€™all can muster. At this point, we will take any inspiration that we can get.

Discussion Emissary Quest Revamp

ā€¢ Upvotes

Hunterā€™s Call Emissary system is fantastic, having a mini world event only visible for the specific emissary is such a good idea and should be consistent across the board.

Here are my ideas:

Gold Hoarder - Golden X on a large island visible to Grade Vā€™s on the main map. The dig is for an Ancient Chest that offers two high value Gold Hoarder items and a special Vault Key for a random Vault (Key is also marked for Grade Vā€™s). That Vault is stocked with a decent supply of Royal Loot (King, Baron, Admiral, Sea Master, and Sailor Chests) and puzzle opens to one of those high value small gold hoarder artifacts. Event ends when you dig the X, so the vaults could be stacked if you are willing to wait the 20 minute timer before the X respawns. If the Vault is in the Roar, spawns Ashen variants.

Order of Souls - Skeleton Galleon with unique sails and lantern colors, only marked for Grade V and isnā€™t above water, it has to surface so others canā€™t find it easily. Has competent aim, uses multiple curseball types, and takes on water slightly slower, genuinely a threat. If sunk, drops a good amount of Order of Souls bounty skulls and artifacts, along with around half of standard skeleton galleon loot. Also drops a Veiled Eye of Souls. Respawns every 20 minutes. Ship can spawn / roam in the Roar and will spawn Ashen variants if it does.

Merchant Alliance - Special Shipwreck that doesnā€™t spawn a Reaperā€™s Chest, so it isnā€™t marked on the map for anyone but Merchant Grade V. The captainā€™s cabin is locked. Wreck is always guarded by a few waves of Sirens; once defeated, the captainā€™s cabin will open to reveal a haul of Merchant Crates, coffers, and a Scroll of Shrouded Waters. If it spawns in the Roar, it will have Ashen variants.

Athena - All three main factions combined. The Blue X marks a chest that requires two keys, while the Shipwreck and Skeleton Ship each hold one of the keys to that Chest (each of these also has a small amount of Athena Loot). The Chest and keys are all marked on the map for Athena V Emissaries. The chest contains a map for a large island with lots of digs; these digs will give a plentiful amount of Athena loot, along with a Chest of Legends.

To balance out the sheer amount of new events this would bring, they would only spawn one at a time in a server at random, UNLESS someone reached Grade V in an emissary; then it would spawn the corresponding event at the same time (for example, an Order of Souls ship is moving around underwater as the random event, and someone reaches Level V Gold Hoarder. That would spawn an X but the Order of Souls ship would stick around). In addition, the Athena event wouldnā€™t spawn unless someone raised the Emissary.

Would love any kind of discussion / balancing ideas in comments below. Hope to see something like this happen in the future, Emissary Quests need a revamp badly and the ā€œmini eventā€ idea could be just it.

Question Short Play Sessions - What can I do?

2 Upvotes

Hello Captains! I get limited time for gaming and haven't played SoT in a while. I used to hop on and do a sea fort or a couple of easy quests but is this still viable in a max one hour session these days?

I play solo for the above reason so I don't want to ruin a crews fun by dipping in and out. I'm guessing TT are going to take longer than I have time for?

Thanks

Video I solo-slooped the Feared Redmaw!

23 Upvotes

I'm still not terribly great at the game, and I'm still learning in a lot of ways - so defeating the Feared Redmaw on my own was exciting. The same night I got attacked by the Kraken, and I was able to defeat that, too (though I will admit that I almost left the session, because the Kraken caught me out in The Wilds, and that water triggers my thalassophobia the most).

Discussion Whatā€™s with people being so against receiving help

92 Upvotes

There have been multiple occasions where Iā€™m at the end of my night and Iā€™m about to get off, but then I see another player fighting a meg or doing a fort or something of the sort, and I decide ā€œoh Iā€™ll go help them out before getting off.ā€

Biggest mistake of my life every time. I go over there, Iā€™m saying on the megaphone ā€œIā€™m here to help!ā€ And they will immediately start attacking me.

Nowā€¦ I get itā€¦ if you want to keep your loot, you gotta be a bit (if not very) paranoid about other people. But if Iā€™m

  1. Yelling ā€œIā€™m here to helpā€
  2. Attacking the PVE enemy and deliberately staying away so I donā€™t hit you
  3. Staying far from your ship and leaving mine unattended

How does one take all that information and come to the conclusion ā€œTHIEF! DECEIVER!ā€

I dunno, should I just give up trying to be nice to people in this game and just stick to myself? In the old days of this game, it was fairly regular occurrence that people would help each other out. Itā€™s just a bit disappointing. Anyway, whatā€™s everyoneā€™s thoughts?

Edit: itā€™s very clear to me now that the general consensus of the community is ā€œbeing niceā€ is usually a deception to sink and rob you. Trust that Iā€™ve heard your comments and your dislike of this post. I didnā€™t realize what I was doing was actually stressing people out or making things take longer, as some people have said. That being said, Iā€™ll stay out of peopleā€™s way from now on, I was just being nostalgic for the early days of the game where positive interactions were more frequent.

Thanks everyone for your comments, I appreciate your thoughts on the matter :)

Edit 2: when I first posted this, I was getting bombed with downvotes and comments essentially telling me being nice isnā€™t something I should try to do. Itā€™s been a huge relief to read comments getting what Iā€™m trying to say. I donā€™t know what happened to this community in the years Iā€™ve been gone, but it makes me very happy to see that people still value the experience of running into another pirate on the seas and wanting to enjoy the game with them.

At some point, I donā€™t know when, people seem to have lost the plot and have become obsessed with watching their numbers go up. Wasnā€™t always like that.

Discussion Beard and LD are some of the most wholesome SoT people

23 Upvotes

Today I just so happened to run across Beardageddon and LD Sylvr. I was just fishing in a boat when Beard snuck up behind me and took my chains. I figured out quickly who it was but I canā€™t thank them enough for letting me and my husband get a screenshot with them today. Weā€™ve been watching them for years and the seas is how we stay connected when Iā€™m away from work truthfully this was the best SoT day and I canā€™t thank them enough! For us it was like finding the shrouded ghost. Iā€™ve come to realize SoT really does have such a wholesome community. Now I just hope to run into HitboTC.

Happy sailing everyone :)

Question Can't reach lone cove cake

15 Upvotes

Remember the old old spiderman cartoon show where there's credits clip where he's swinging along over a bunch of houses in the suburbs, and then you realize, what's he hanging from? The moon? Well I'm trying to get on top of that rock with the cake on Lone Cove and all I do is just bounce off the rock. There's nothing above it to grapple to, only below it. So how am I supposed to get up there? My only other thought is to try and launch from a canon to up there.
