A good way to practice aim is spawn camping an entire galleon in gally arena. There’s more than one target, some of their movement is either predictable or unpredictable. Use sniper pistol and practice aiming with those. Also learn how to x-cancel with your reload it will help tremendously in pvp especially on pistol.
I know arena isn’t the most popular way to play however it’s the best place to practice any and all PVP IMO. TDMs in arena have improved my close qtrs ability’s immensely. If you’re intimidated by other unknown players then it’s also very easy to solo que for arena with friends to get into an arena lobby together and practice fighting together with friends to improve. Great videos though HITBO, these guides always help.
I have been trying to fine tune all the different weapons aim down speed for a while. Never thought to max there then fine tune the other sensitivity. Gonna give this a try for sure. Ya never know eh?
Aristocrat and cultured aristocrat skins make great replacements for the ebon Pistol, if your anything like me finding one of those codes is rarer than seeing aliens in HitboTC's streams!!!
Ebon flintlock will be a twitch drop on June 26, which is a week from now, so don't forget to link your SoT account to twitch and watch 20 minutes of any streamer. The wheel and tankard will also be available on June 25 and June 27 respectively.
Playing sot since launch. Listen to this man. He knows da deal. I have only one more good practice. Never doublegun if you are a rookie. Not because its annyoing for anyone else, but because it will ruin the first months. Learn to sworddash and "duel" and charge before. Increases your ingame "security" feeling.
A great way to have a constant stream of Skelly target practice is to finish or load the last chapter of the first tall-tail. They never stop coming for you, you increase renown and the skellys look really cool!
as someone whos coming back to fps after a long hiatus because of RSI, u got some pretty good advice here, one thing i would recommend to anyone is run gridshot on an aim trainer if you really wanna hit that next level, it mimics the type of aiming you might do in sot relatively well, and it gives you a way to analyze yourself, as well as know when you hit your goal of progression
I’m on xbox too And if you need good sensitivity’s I use Controller sensitivity 9.0 Response curve 5.0 Flintlock sensitivity 5.0 Eye of reach sensitivity 5.0 Blunderbuss sensitivity 5.0 Deadzone 0.1
I'm on Xbox too I'm always trying to play around with my sensitivity it's totally different for controller than it is with mouse starting to get better with my aim I used to have my sensitivity way too high and then I would miss my shots that's one thing you don't want
It would be good to see a guide on how to hit targets from your ship. I've noticed that aiming straight at targets doesn't usually work. You have to aim in front of them or something like that. I've never worked it out. I've seen lots of footage of sniping players ship to ship and always wondered what the rules are and how various streamers always seem to be so accurate.
Glad to see your still crushing the sea's, nice tips video as well, this will help those newer players a ton. I still find it odd how many people use weapons that eat half the screen. Also have to say your ladder drop/grab is crazy fast, know what I'll be practicing this weekend. Take care.
sometimes if im playing with a friend, we go with pistol and eye of reach and try to hit each other while were dodging. Because that sound effect when you hit someone with a gun plays even when theyre your teammate
what i do is go to arena and pull the double gun out with whatever i wanna practice such as pistol and sniper, and not try to win but just to board people and kill them, you don't need to camp them but practice boarding is a good skill to have
When visiting an island improve aim using the pigs and chickens as target practice. They are small and their movement is unpredicable. All hail the mighty Whale Lord.
I think that the best way to improve your aim is to join an alliance and ask them if they would want to fight you using only swords/guns (TDM). In my opinion If you do this you will be able to fight off pirates better
Arena isn’t very fun, it definitely can be but it for sure helps with cqc. Always going to be a sweat (me) trying to board so you’ll have plenty of practice defending from boarders and ship combat practice !
@@HitboTC oh for sure man lol. But I’m an instructor professionally and I for sure, also have a instructors voice. More tonality and inflections but hey, you got get everyone engaged somehow. You sir, do it well. keep it up!

TDM!!!!!!!!!!!! ahah , I mean it's the best way to consistently train your aim

Practice does make yourself better and the best way to practice is Arena. Idk y people say it doesn’t make u better. TDMing is the way
TDM, campwars, spawn camping. arena trains you on that stuff and makes your game sense and aim go way up
@@cloth100 Exactly
Nailed it

Solid advice
Thanks, I’ve been wondering how to improve my aim and it’s quite hard being on Xbox this will help a lot, Thank you
I’m on Xbox too, the way I learned to aim and stuff is arena. Arena trains u on pvp
I’m on xbox too
And if you need good sensitivity’s I use
Controller sensitivity 9.0
Response curve 5.0
Flintlock sensitivity 5.0
Eye of reach sensitivity 5.0
Blunderbuss sensitivity 5.0
Deadzone 0.1

“how to improve your aim in sea of thieves” now this is a certified hood classic
Lmao
smh my head phuzzy bond's pig strat didn't work for me :(
3 years old and still good. that bit about settings. I just tried it and wow, I totally get it. thanks.
Best way is PvP. Just shoot everyone and everything you see. Shoot first ask questions later is actually really good advice.
Always remember to lead a bit when the target is moving, especially on land.

I really need help with that too
Using the bell helped me a ton when first learning quickscopes and using flintlock
That was a big brain play at 3:27
When you recommended the Obsidian Flintlock I felt that. Been trying to win for over a year
You can still geht the Flintlock? Wasn't it a Twich drop?
I love shooting the ship bells to practice, been hoping to find a stationary one on an island somewhere.
Me too! I will try to alternate between the one on the main mast and the one aloft in the crows nest
Wanderers Refuge and Crooked masts are two islands with bells i can think of.
I really like the "Bell Game" you mentioned, I'm definitely trying that now, thanks! Great tips all around too!
Practising sniping skellies on islands you're passing is super useful for getting the hang of bullet drift at different ranges/speeds.

I have old man aim; it worked pretty well back in 2000!
Practice makes perfect, especially in the Sea of Thieves
what i do is go to arena and pull the double gun out with whatever i wanna practice such as pistol and sniper, and not try to win but just to board people and kill them, you don't need to camp them but practice boarding is a good skill to have

thats why i use the blunderbuss, no need to aim, just get up close and personal and they're dead
Great vid! But you should’ve also mentioned your dpi:)
I want to actually live up to my gamer tag “deadeye”
just found this channel through a friend's reccomendation and I love it! keep up the great work!

Wanna know something crazy. Shooting the bell doesn’t do crap. Just tdm in arena
Hitbo the Man, the myth, the legend, the champ
Best way to get goood= TDM!!!
Agreed

Thanks for the videos Hitbo they have been a huge help. Keep up the great work bro
Definitely been needing this video. Anything to improve my PVP
Hitbo, the man showing us the way so that we can shoot with the Madolorian's accuracy
The thumbnail felt more like a callout then advice lol
I use shooting on cargo bottles it shows \ / on screen when U shot it

I HAVE been wondering that. thanks for the tips and tricks! when will we get a fishing tips video?
Aliens have contacted me and trained me to sharp shoot
with pirate lasers! Pew Pew
I have been trying to improve my pistol aim and this helped a lot
🏴☠️😈🖤 You already know
That poor bell, always being shot
kek
I'm trash at this game I really needed this
Thanks for the tips Hitbo! You're the best man!
Drink more grog to improve your aim! LETS gooooo
Who needs TDM when you have a bell
Clips on the bell, that’s going in the tage
“i would recommend the obsidian pistol” it’s been a year and i’m still trying to get one🤣
Double X cancels the beginning animation for reloads, shaves roughly .4 seconds off of reload time.
Thanks Hitbo!!
Thank you Hitbo
Thanks mate for another great video. Hope to see yer on the seas
Hey, hey!! I joined! Thanks!!
Good tips!
The cursed captain has returned
Nice, thanks
Thank you too!
I mean a Obsidian 6 Pack would certainly help improve my aim. Just hoping here -w-!!!
Very insightful Thanks HitboTC
Keep up the good work Hitbo!
Amazing content Hitbo, as always
Sick vid
Great video
It’s the hitbo instructors voice!
Wait... I have a voice for that?
@@HitboTC oh for sure man lol. But I’m an instructor professionally and I for sure, also have a instructors voice. More tonality and inflections but hey, you got get everyone engaged somehow. You sir, do it well. keep it up!
Aim small hit small. Thx for the content.
Love that movie
Thanks for the info this helped a lot
Any suggestions on what to set the response curve to for controller players?
practice practice practice
I aim as I’m reloading and moving out of the enemies line of sight. Waiting for the reload then aiming makes you do a die.
"That's me"
Very informative
Always aim for the KEG
A good way to get better at pvp is tdming
I struggle with blunderbombs and my aim I play on xbox does this work the same way?
got the same sense on 400dpi , feels good
Now if only I could improve hit registration.
What would you recommend for setting on a controller ?
Crescent isle is pog
Let’s BLUNDERBUST UA-cam’s algorithm OUTof the SURFACE of the EARTH !!
I personally recommend arena to practice
Dude looks like Travis Kelce
GG in the chat
What is your dpi
to be honest its the hitboxes that are fucked , most peoples aim is completelly fine , its the Game that needs to be fixed
Let's GOOOOOOO!
NOT BACON THIS TIME
What a handsome boy
For the whale lord 👽👽👽👽👽
What DPI do you use?
Only aliens have perfect aim
I guess I should check my settings.... LOL
Hitbo is amazing
