I did a skull fort yesterday and i got chased by a meg, skele galleon, and a player sloop who we hit with like, 15 firebombs lol, it seems like it at times
It always feels like that but it is completely random, the only reason that Kraken attacked you after you got the fort finished is cause it can now spawn due to no fort.
Myth: Shooting a player at a falling volcanic rock will cause it to detonate in midair Secondary myth: You can load chainshot into a skeleton's cannon and it will use them
I've only encountered one - Shark Bait Cove. I was trying to do riddles and was there for three days (in game), it spawned on the shore - feel like Rare were watching and felt sorry for my poor riddle deductions! 😄
If it spawns, it will spawn around you not anywhere on the island from what I know, so if you want to spot them easily then just a flat sandy island would be ideal.
Getting a lot of coin skellys at Thieves Haven lately, iv had 2 of them in 24 hours and so did a friend we also had a big alliance going with other crews on Thieves Haven at the moment they spawned. They also spawn on the very top of Thieves Haven as well as sea level. If you hear one spawn, look at where the noise is coming from and move towards it (if your view is blocked by plants or trees), find it and smash its face in before it gets out the ground, do not stand there saying why is that blue and gold skeleton running away from me.
I once heard an ancient skeleton spawn, but it was night in the game, and bright sunny daytime in the conservatory where my xbox was, so I couldn't see it. I recorded it though and later saw that it was just on my left.

I was about to give up on this game for not changing their progression and then I heard about what’s coming in the next update and I’m sticking with the Game. Wish I had insider.
@JustTheReed, if you want to join insider I think it’s still open to everyone. I haven checked in a while but I believe you just have to check in rare’s website. Then download the insider app to your Xbox or PC.
Your Discord link is invalid, so here is the myth suggestion: Investigate respawn mechanics in large crews. The idea for this topic came when my crew got raided and everybody started dying a few seconds after each other. I asked myself: if everybody waited in the Ferry of the Damned for the others to arrive and for their doors to open, so that the whole crew spawns at the same time, if we would be better off than if each person spawned individually. In theory, the answer is yes: if everybody spawned together in the same deck, we could overwhelm the enemy by surprise, rather than one person getting ganked on at a time. But then I realized that everybody will probably spawn in different parts of the ship! It would be great if you could investigate how often you'll spawn in the deck or in the holds, and whether this is affected by the presence of crewmates or even enemies on the deck. This will probably involve dying over and over in different situations so you can gather statistical data.
Myth: the ferry of the damned is under a certain crack in the map. Secondary myth: it is possible to survive the Red Sea/scuttling ship Tertiary myth: megalodons can spawn in the Red Sea and attack
I can confirm that ancient skelles can spawn in a sloop with one person, happened to me twice in the last month a few days apart, though very unlucky I got 320 total from the two
Myth: you have already tested this but it was near an Island where the waves dsnt really exist so i want u to try: do u swim faster under water in big waves?
Ladder camping is fun, they either die or fly away. Not getting on my ship today. Typically in adventure i use sword flintlock, arena all double gun combos depending on what im doing
I remember my first AS. My idiotic siblings sunk a noob sloop at Cannon Cove and I was lecturing them for that. Then an ancient skeleton spawned and all the angery went away.
ItsYaBoyWhiteChocolate yeah but it won’t make a difference wether it’s there or not plus they probably won’t spawn there because it’s a mission locked area
I am a user for all weapon types in certain situations... blunder is a really good weapon for bording and to stop borders... I take skill to under stand the times to use it 1 miss fire can be the end but in some cases it is just a aim and shoot weapon (Edit) I use the blunder just as much as any other weapon and all the weapons have good and bad sides
@@IllBushido I've been playing for a while thought and I know it's still a good weapon but people on pc are just able to move more cleanly, besides though I quite like the challenge you get to beat pc players
Hey man^^ so I heard a that in sea of thieves, megs won't attack ya unless you attack them, I was also told the same with skeloton ships above water already without battles
So i have a question... Lets say you and your buddie sail the seas and you get boarded by someone. (tuckers) He will be listed in your "My crew" where you can brig anyone. If you and your crewmember vote to brig him... Does that work? I was once boarded by some other pirate when i was solo. I could see his name in the settings and i even could vote but i guess it takes 2 votes?!
I found an ancient skeleton on the first days playing. I ran away because I was scared and didnt know what it was. I think it was on Crooks Hollow. Found 3 others since then so I'm not too mad at myself.
Ancient skeleton fact:An ancient skeleton cannont spawn in an area if it cannot reach the shoreline within 20 seconds,so the middle of old faithfull or the top of crooks hollow is a no go.
I watched a video of record ancient skelly spawning spree on Thieves Haven, 5 times in a session I believe, so I went to TH specifically for that reason and what do you know ancient skelly spawned.
I went to an outpost and I sold a ruby and I go back to get my chest from my boat and I caught a guy stealing my chest that was for a quest and I just stared at him for a solid minute and he dropped the chest, must’ve intimidated him lol.
With experience, the blunder does take skill. Just not as much as the sniper and flintlock. I say this because I'm pretty bad at one shots in a fight with blunder and it takes practice to use the blunder in the most effective manner.
I saw one blue and yellow skeleton on a island I killed it but I falled of the mountain I didn’t die but when I got back up on the mountain I couldn’t find the location where I killed the skeleton
Myth: Megs and Krakens spawn more often when you have more loot.
That used to be the kraken that would spawn In the beta how ever it’s about skull forts and fleets now and meg is random ( I think)
It sure does feel that way sometimes...

Skeleton ships have a slightly higher spawn chance when there is chests on the ship, you can find out more on the wiki!

my galleon crew sank at shark bait and i spent 7 game days there while they were sailing back
I found an ancient skeleton in shores of gold lol
Fish Cracker I did too? Nice!
It is the highest spawn rate there
Have you been to the shores of gold lately?
Same with me
Yo the probabilities for u to get the skeleton increases there
The blunder takes skill for me cos I’m a bloody idiot
Wouldn't a smaller island make it easier to find the skeleton if all islands have the same ancient skeleton spawn rate?
If it spawns, it will spawn around you not anywhere on the island from what I know, so if you want to spot them easily then just a flat sandy island would be ideal.
@@oxi8403 yeah I guess, less areas to run to on a small island tho.

I found an Ancient Skeleton yesterday. Cool.
Do a video where you do the shores of gold for a whole day and see how many ancient skeletons you get
ancient skeletons are probably also commonly found on the shores of gold as crews spend ages on the land itself more than any other island
I do not really understand English, could you answer this comment, where can I find ancient skeletons? I'll be very grateful!

The blunderbuss takes skill if your on Xbox but on pc there's no skill whatsoever
There's skill in knowing when to use it. That doesn't change between platforms.
Platform doesn’t determine the skill in using it but instead it all depends on the scenario.
