5 Tiny Weeny Tips that Could Save Your Pirate’s Life in Sea of Thieves.

September 10, 2022September 4, 2022 Medic 0 Comments sea of thieves

The Sea of Thieves can be a dangerous place. Wait, did I say “can be”? It’s always a dangerous place. There are skeletons, ghosts and enemy pirates to contend with. All these bastards want is you dead and your loot whisked away. However, in my limited time sailing on these seas, I have a few obvious tips that could really save your skin. Have canons loaded at all times Funnily enough, a lot of people leave their cannons unloaded while they do other things. But leaving cannons unloaded can make all the difference. It takes time to reload a cannon… [Continue Reading]

“Interesting” Pirate Tactics

September 9, 2022September 3, 2022 Medic 0 Comments dumb, sea of thieves, stupidity, tactics

The other day, I was playing on a sloop for the first time in ages. It was just Bacxaber and me, working towards some Reaper’s Bones commendations that Bacxaber needed. We didn’t really have much of a plan, we were just piecing together a treasure map and looking for a vault. It was reasonably quiet, just slow. As we finished the vault and sailed away though, we caught the attention of another Reaper ship. One that was hungry for our loot. Seemed like a normal fight at first This sort of thing is pretty normal. It’s generally assumed that any… [Continue Reading]

A Pirate Legend?

September 2, 2022August 27, 2022 Medic 0 Comments pirate, sea of thieves

The other day, I finally hit a cool target while playing Sea of Thieves. I reached rank 50 with the Merchants, the third level 50 rank I needed to become a Pirate Legend. However, I… don’t really… feel like a Pirate Legend? It’s hard to explain, especially since I haven’t been playing that long. Or maybe I have been playing for that long. I already have 100 hours played in Sea of Thieves. Bloody hell, the time flies. I still feel like a newbie though. Despite being a pirate legend. And being at level 50 for three separate emissaries. I… [Continue Reading]

Krakens Suck

August 28, 2022August 22, 2022 Medic 0 Comments kraken, sea of thieves

I’ve been playing Sea of Thieves for a while now and I’ve been enjoying it a lot. However, not everything is perfect in this pirate game. Like most games, there’s always a flaw or two, some things that just aren’t likeable, and events that are seemingly random. As you sail, you can run into mermaid puzzle bubbles, find sunken ships or perhaps get attacked by a Megalodon. And then we have Krakens. Krakens suck. Krakens are like Megalodons except more annoying and ready to waste a lot more of your time. You don’t even get to see most of them.… [Continue Reading]

Fishing in the Sea of Thieves

August 26, 2022August 20, 2022 Medic 0 Comments fishing, sea of thieves

I’ve always enjoyed fishing in video games. While I’ve never properly gone fishing in real life, I’m quite happy to do so in the confines of a video game. Heck, I have spent multiple hours staying up and fishing, over a nice selection of games. Somehow, I’m just attracted to fishing mini games. My two favourite games to fish in are Warframe and Minecraft. In Warframe, I used my love of fishing to, well, fish my way up to the top rank of Cetus. Using Volt, I could catch fish with ease and without buying other fishing spears. In Minecraft,… [Continue Reading]

Five Reasons Why You Should be doing Legends of the Veil

August 25, 2022August 19, 2022 Medic 0 Comments sea of thieves

The Legend of the Veil is a voyage you can pick up from the Athena’s Fortune Hideout, for Pirate Legends only*. In it, you speak to the Pirate Lord and he bumbles on about how powerful this artifact is and that he’s gone and lost it. Your crew has to find three small, green Veil Stones in order to reactivate the Veil of the Ancients. Apparently, the Veil of the Ancients can open and close portals between the Sea of Thieves and the Sea of the Damned, as well as breaking the barriers between the two worlds. *Just the person… [Continue Reading]

My Limited Thoughts on Captaincy in the Sea of Thieves

August 24, 2022August 18, 2022 Medic 0 Comments captaincy, sea of thieves

Captaincy is one of the bigger updates that Sea of Thieves has had in a while, while also being one of the oldest updates ever promised. The Captaincy update was supposed to be the first major update for Sea of Thieves, but for some reason never came out. Years later and here Captaincy is, with a bunch of pretty nice stuff. Your own actual ship The biggest part of the update is the ability to name your ship. It’s one of the first things you do when you become a captain. After all, this IS your own, personal ship. And… [Continue Reading]

Reapers, Glitterbeards and Forts – More Adventures on the Stormcloud

August 23, 2022August 17, 2022 Medic 0 Comments fun, glitterbeard, sea of thieves, stormcloud

It’s always fun being on a big ship with plenty of cannons. 4-player Galleons are big and tanky and somewhat threatening, especially to other ships. In this session though, the plan wasn’t to reap and tear. Instead, we were playing as emissaries for the Gold Hoarders, in order to help me reach level 50 and become a Pirate Legend. Luckily this wasn’t too hard to do. We ended up doing some vaults… well, the same vault 3 times, making lots of gold. As we sailed though, we did meet a very aggressive sloop. Luckily they were no threat to us.… [Continue Reading]

On Becoming A Pirate Legend

August 22, 2022August 22, 2022 Medic 0 Comments pirate legend, sea of thieves

Sea of Thieves doesn’t really have much of an obvious end goal. There is a LOT to unlock, but as a final goal, it’s mostly just getting huge amounts of money and infamy. That and hunting down emissaries to kill them. However, before we talk about end game stuff, there’s a specific rank that you need to acquire, before you do anything too interesting. I’m talking about being a Pirate Legend, and finding myself deeper inside SoT lore. When I first started playing Sea of Thieves, I thought it’d take a while to become a Pirate Legend. After all, with… [Continue Reading]

A Massive Sea of Thieves Adventure on the Stormcloud

August 8, 2022August 7, 2022 Medic 0 Comments alliance, awesome, bacxaber, sea of thieves, stormcloud

The other day, the Stormcloud set off from an outpost, ready for adventure. The plan was simple: get supplies, then make our way towards leveling up Reapers. After a somewhat unenjoyable session the day before, there were high hopes that our new session would be better. Those high hopes were very quickly met, and became one of our biggest and best adventures yet. Simply put, it was insane. So here’s what happened. A Calm Beginning Our day started off quite simple. We raised our flag as Reapers, then set off to get supplies. The first thing we did was take… [Continue Reading]
