      The damage difference between the stronghold keg and the Athena keg is blast radius. The Athena keg will kill the entire crew on a galleon but the stronghold keg will not carry its kill damage as far.

      I found it around N21. Though be warned I posted it in the official discord and told by pirates that it’s fake and just “propaganda by rare” lol.

    This is terrible advice. Everybody knows that the true way to get the Shrouded Ghost to spawn is to embark on a clearly doomed voyage that will deplete your fortune, drive you insane, and eventually kill you. You literally just have to lose your mind (and a leg) and go completely wacko with your lust for revenge.

    It's not a myth, it's a reality:
    Telling your friend to log in to play to get a quick achievement, a 20 minute adventure. From the moment those words were mentioned you have just condemned that expedition to the most cursed and chaotic of your entire life. On that journey alone you will manage to find a valuable treasure that you will want to sell only to be followed by constant megalodors, pirate ships, the event of the fleet of leaving by surprise in the place you were sailing, a obligatory visit of the kraken and of course the sweatiest of the streamers connecting on your server to record troll videos for his youtube channel.

      One time I logged in to customize my reaper ship' trinkets and then log. Buy then I saw a level five reaper pulling up to reapers hideout, and I wasn't far away at plunder. So I threw up my reaper flag and sailed over, hoping to have a quick round of PVP and fully expecting my solo brig to sink with zero loot.
      The level 5 reapers decided to run. So I chased them to the edge of the map. We ended up in an alliance stacking FOTD.

    The Shrouded Ghost, in terms of myth and player stories, feels very much like one of those actual tall tales: a yarn that sailors young and old would enjoy spinning during the historical Age of Exploration.
    The thing about the Shrouded Ghost is that, in actuality, she ain't no tall tale. You can fight her. Most pirates don't get to see her with their own eyes, even after thousands of hours of playtime. But, you can fight her.

      I fell hit my head and woke up on lonely isle with no ship, no Papa, no leg, no GROG and a headache that could kill a kraken.. and i never saw me papa ever again.

    I've never heard of that "reaper charge" thing but now I want it in the game, that's such a cool idea to fend people off and increase its value.
    Also, FINALLY someone else confirms that the Athena keg is identical to the Stronghold one, SO MANY people think the Athena one is better. They are literally re-skins, they even have the same sell value! The only difference is the faction they go to.

  • @kalvinchester4068
    @kalvinchester4068 Před měsícem +6

    Here's a few myths.
    Chest of Rage: You can put this on a barrel in the lowest deck, have a little bit of water in the lower deck, and it won't set anything on the ship on fire. But will set the player on fire.
    Also the fire would release any harpoon if they're shot out and attached to something else.
    Cursed cannonballs are guaranteed on cannon rowboats found in random locations.
    Spamming Block and ringing the ships bell will give a good sound effect that amplifies everything around the player.

    • @reonthornton685
      @reonthornton685 Před měsícem

      The Chest of Rage one is true, however it does cause the water to boil, making the deck it is on unsafe to traverse.
      That and the water level has to be quite significant.
      It's ultimately not as helpful as just one player with a bucket keeping an eye on it unless if you're a solo slooper and even then it's risky.

    • @kalvinchester4068
      @kalvinchester4068 Před měsícem +1

      @reonthornton685 that's what putting it on a barrel is for. If it's on a barrel (not the deck), and the deck has some water on it (enough to mostly cover the bed on a sloop) it won't boil the water and won't damage anything. But if you stand by harpoon/cannon when it goes off it'll make you catch fire

    I thought the difference between athena kegs and mega kegs was that the athene has higher damage output against players, with potentially slower damage falloff and more range. Never tested it myself, just heared it a couple times from others.

      Negative. While there was a camera trained on the ship, I had a second avatar actually placing the kegs and trying to escape the blast. In both cases, they reached the middle deck just a few feet from stairs. Explosion hits, they take like 60% damage.

    Don't holes in the ship hull have different sizes? There's a small hole at first and then the more times the same spot is hit, the bigger the hole gets. And bigger holes take longer to repair with a plank. So repairing your ship in the shipwright from time to time actually matters.

    • @JonBardcore
      @JonBardcore  Před měsícem

      Yes, holes take time to repair. But what I'm saying is that if you plank a hole there's in effect no hole there. So everything is reset.

      @@JonBardcore The video also suggests that spending gold to repair your ship is a waste of money. It is not. When you're in a fight and have a lot of holes, the time to fix each of them can make a huge difference. Especially when you're solo. So while you definitely shouldn't pay for restoring every little scratch, it's good to do so when your ship has a lot of bruises.
