  • The Struggles of SOLO PvP in Sea of Thieves
    If you were looking for a hard-mode in Sea of Thieves, Solo PvP would definitely be it. Fighting 4v1 is a common occurrence though going through the pain of fighting as a Sloop vs Galleon is also the fastest way to get better at PvP.
    So I hope you enjoy these highlights and funny moments as I stumble my way into the hardest way to play Sea of Thieves.

    The difficulty I've always had with solo slooping is shortly after combat begins I have to be off the cannons to either course correct or repair damage during which time I am doing NO damage to the enemy and they are continuing to fire on me. I have practiced against a skeleton galleon a few times but at best...I manage to run away without sinking.

      And even when you can't avoid combat, you can become really hard to sink and catch as well even with slow reaction times and poor eye sight. Just takes some naval skills :)

    as some one who is struggling as a solo sloop adventurer, (who just saved up to buy his own sloop) its reached a point where i just cant bring myself to respawn anymore,(having a crew of 3 spawn camping most of your respawn spots while they shame me for not having friends, general toxic slurs for being a noob captain as my ship slowly burns down and sinks, is just not worth) 9/10 crews that sunk me are always 3-4 players (my co op friends can only play 1-2 days a week so i have to go solo to make gold)
    my worst day was yesterday where i got sunk 10 times within 4 hours (7 of which where pvp, (also losing the kracken, skeleton sloop and galleon emergent event) scuttling and server hopping every combat encounter.
    its reached a point where idk what to do anymore i cant even go beach combing for scraps with out some one some how finding me it seems.
    i did not know becoming a real ship captain makes you so much more of a target.

  • @Illusionary.Specialist

    Cliff if you are fighting a galleon it is very important that you spam fire from a distance and have a ballast ball. If you get into their broad you need to spam blunders at cannon line and keep them off cannons. When you get close as well and they start hitting your cannon line you need to get below deck so you don't get popcorned off the boat. Sorry if this is a lot, I just want to help you win more fights cliff. Watch some Kai Joi and Blue Sail Gang if you want to learn more about the nitty gritty of Sea of thieves Naval and PVP. Breeze is also amazing for pvp and naval, he does amazing with solo slooping.

Battle zones though seem like a good idea though, but hopefully won't become novel as some people just like ruining other people's day. xD

    @Careonovam Před rokem

    Saddest Galleon - fight I've ever seen. Usually -if you fight a Gally with a solo - sloop - you are gonezo the moment you enter their broadside. If they are a well oiled machinery at least 3 cannons will make swiss cheese out of your vessel (3x10 cannon balls = 30 shots fired at your ship in rapid succession...) while the fourth boards you. Usually an act of 1 minute max.
