![Sea of Thieves: PvP & Naval Advanced Combat [Strange Guide]](/img/n.gif)
You can actually out run a galleon in a sloop you need to go against the wind and then you can out run them
Wouldnt say u can out run them but it will keep u a step ahead for long enough for them to give up
My only suggestion is to be hyper aware of your surroundings. Example, I was on a voyage recently and ended up sailing between two gallons that were in the area. One was port close to a rocky outcrop near an island, the other to my starboard. The starboard ship decided to give chase, quickly closing the distance. I ran with the wind a bit until our ships were other side of the rocks where the port Gallons was. St this point I raised sail a bit to tighten turn while moving and sailed straight for the rocks. I hoped they wouldn’t follow, but if they did there would be a surprise on the other side. Sure enough they chased me through, and as I exited the outcropping I quickly tacked towards the second gallon sailing right past as they didn’t see me coming. However, it did alert them as they too tried to set sail and take me. It was at this point however the starboard gallon made it through the rocks and ran smack dab into the second hostile. I made it to port at the outpost close by, turned over my haul of pigs and chicken and then watched as they tore each other apart and laughing the whole time.
KingCraigers I hope you had the wit to shout “You will remember this as the day you *almost* caught Captain Craigers!” as you sailed away.
I love playing as a sloop and outsmarting all these large crews
Definitely some friendly players out there! I was on a solo sloop solving a riddle on an island when a duo sloop pulled up. I waved to let them know I was friendly. After some hesitation, they jumped off their ship and started doing an Order of Souls mission. I continued trying to solve my riddle. A couple of minutes in, I saw they were being bombarded so I went over and helped them kill the skeletons and captains. I didn't make a move toward their skulls when the captains were defeated. They grabbed their loot and left without touching me or my ship. A little while later, I pulled up to the outpost with loot - about 1.3k worth of gold. One of them boarded my ship and shot me in the back. I jumped off the side of the ship, ate a banana, and got back on. When I did, the guy saw my name, realized it was me, and spammed "Sorry!". He walked past my loot which included a captain's chest and a skull...and didn't touch it. They both got on their ship and waved at me as they sailed away and I turned in all my loot. They had me outnumbered 2 to 1 and could easily have killed me...they had already turned all their stuff in so they had nothing to lose. If it hadn't been me, who had helped them earlier, they would have killed me and stolen my stuff. So, the moral of the story? Being friendly to others can sometimes be beneficial...even if those other pirates are usually hostile. Still...be wary. Have fun on the seas! Don't kill me if you see me ;) lol
Mortar Chelle Hello everyone, JesseTatto mentioned keeping the cannons pointed to the sky to indicate friendly intentions. I did that yesterday, hoping to invite other pirates for social gatherings instead of just “kill and loot”. If you see a pirate w a nametag of IrishBrigade on a sloop w cannons high. That’s me, I’m friendly and do not start fights. It would be fun to sail w other sloops (safer in numbers) and go on quests. I don’t even care about a share in the loot. Just to chat w other pirates would be cool.
mark Daley yep, I keep my cannons high on a sloop but people come in anyway haha Hope to see you on the seas! My gamertag is MortarChelle
Mortar Chelle I’m here in the teachers lounge and see your note. It would be awesome to have 2 or 3 friendly sloops sailing together. And if galleons pick on us , we all attack from all sides and give them a lesson in manners. Haha.
mark Daley lol that would be awesome! Wish there was an easy way to get on the same server as others
Agreed. I'm sure it will come in time
your gunpowder barrel tactic if storing them below deck is a TERRIBLE idea. 9 times out of 10 you will get shot with cannon balls. If that cannon ball splash damage knicks that barrel, BOOM your ship is done. the safest place for gunpowder barrels on the ship is going to be the crows nest. Yes it takes time to climb the ladder and grab a barrel, but if they explode, its the ONLY place on a ship that they will cause no damage.
Yes I know this now
In the April 30th update it will take down ur mast
If your boat is near an island while your looking for a chest or supplies, raise the sails and then turn instead of having to use and then proceed to raise the anchor. This is effective when say another sloop or even a galleon is coming straight towards your sloop because all you have to do to start moving to lower the sails which takes around 2-3 seconds max instead of raising the anchor for 5-10 seconds.
The unknown Wolf won't it drift away?
Jairo Quinino if you anchor it then put sails down and raise the anchor up, it will not drift at all, the only movement you will have is turning but not going forward at all
Ya I may turn but will stay put
Just don't use the anchor at all. With fully raised sails both ships eventually just come to a full stop.
A good Galleon crew can raise sails approaching an island, disembark and let the captain drift in to a good resting space without ever wasting time dealing with the anchor.
Trick them into sailing off the map. I did that to escape a galleon and used the anchor trick to turn around fast while they went to far into the red water and sank really fast.
That's almost exactly like what Jack Sparrow does in Pirates of the Caribbean: dead men tell no tales.
Nowadays they wouldn't just sail into the red storm
If you have all “Shores Of Gold” tall tales completed, it’s possible to start the final tale and obtain the Shroudbreaker. From there, it’s possible to sail in to the Shroud and not die. It’s a rather cheap strategy, but if you have a good haul of loot, it is still viable.
Nice video, I came across a Galleon crew that were a very well oiled machine, they worked together incredibly well. We’d finished the Skeleton Fleet and I’m not sure what it rewards now but back then the Final ships left all the loot and we have about 6 Skeletons Captains Chests and 6 skeletons Captains Skulls If memory serves.
We were heading to an outpost to cash in and a Galleon exited the Outpost. We decided to proceed with caution when suddenly the Galleon turned our direction so we began to flee. A Pirate got fired from their cannon into water trying to dock if we continued in our same direction so lucky we’d turned. The Galleon pursued us. We tried every outmanoeuvre in the books, sailed close to islands, anchor turned, sailed near rocks, sailed against wind, guarded our ladders and prevented boarders.
We even tried to board their ship but they diverted course incredibly well anytime we attempted this. Anything we did they didn’t stop pursuing and we were certain that they knew what treasure we had otherwise the pursuit would’ve been given up at some stage considering the evasive lengths we took.
Eventually I needed to patch a couple holes in our lower deck and felt the Galleon crew might use this time to attempt to board as they were trying everything in the book. The holes needed patching regardless of my concerns, so I told my friend to guard the ladders whilst I’m patching up the ship. He didn’t and he stayed on the wheel, and low and behold I hear our anchor dropped. My heart sank. This Galleon crew didn’t give up, and eventually they won the day. Our first and only mistake would be our last in terms of saving that treasure,
I was infuriated yet astonished at how well the Galleon crew had worked together. Sails turning, anchor turning, everything was done with minimal time because they did it together. I hope few of you experience that or else this videos tips can not save you. But these are good tips from this video. Be specially aware and watch the horizon like a paranoid hawk if your hauling lots of treasure or even just a few important items you can’t afford to lose.
Alternatively, put your lights on, kraken sails, high level hulls and when you pass shout “I’ve got the life changing chest of legends!”
I just out smarted a galleon crew, my friend and I went into the red ocean. I had my friend repair and dump water, I helped when I could. Didn't expect the galleon to follow us in but when it did, I waved a cheerful wave as I watched and recorded it sink. Helpful tip, a sloop can withstand the red ocean (out of boundaries) a lot better than a galleon can.
I have a nice 2 man sloop strategy that can work against a galleon if executed well. Before you get into a battle be sure to prepare by getting a gunpowder barrel from the skeleton forts or on some islands if you are lucky. Dedicate one player for offense and the other for defense. The offensive player will stay in the crows nest with the gunpowder barrel with him while the other steers the ship and angles the sails.
Now when you are about to engage in a battle, maneuver your sloop to get into the enemy ships blind spot. Try to do this while a decent distance away so they can't shoot at you. Most of the time they will try to turn in an effort to get you out of their blind spot and their boat will be relatively still while it's busy turning. Since the sloop can turn very easily, you can slowly circle in on them in their blind spot unless they are extremely coordinated but most crews cant communicate as efficiently as a 2 man sloop anyways. Try to always stay in their blind spot while circling around them while making each approach closer to them than before.
By now you are close enough to start the attack. If the enemy ship stopped turning try to stay in their blind spot but it isn't nessasary at this point because you circled close enough to close some distance without the enemy having enough time to shoot at you to cause serious damage.
Now when you are close to their ship, ram your sloop into their ship from the front or preferably the back so the player on the crows nest can jump off and board their ship with the gun powder barrel. If you ram the side and the offensive player jumps off, there is a chance that he will over shoot and fall into the water. Now the player steering the sloop will break off and repair the ship then get the sloop back in the enemy ships blind spot.
Once the offensive player is on their ship, he immediately goes to the bottom deck then shoots the barrel causing more damage with the damage the sloop caused when ramming the boat.
The enemy can't shoot the player with the barrel because it might explode killing them all and if they use a sword, they might not hit the offensive player because he won't stop moving until the barrel is detonated.
Now the offensive player simply protects the damage at the bottom deck and tries to distract the enemy by lowering their anchor, killing them with a blunderbus, and maybe a sword. The offensive player also must try and use the enemies resources so he is always at max health and ammo.
While all of this is going on, the player with the sloop repairs their own boat and gets in their blind spot and starts raining down cannon balls uppon the enemy ship.
The enemies must choose to repair the hull, or move the ship out of the sloops way and eventually the ship will sink.
It doesn't matter if the offensive player dies because he will respond at the sloop which is close by and he can just shoot himself out of the cannon towards the ship.
This attack will last at most 1-3 minutes and the enemy crew will most likely panic because of everything that is going on. The most important thing is communication between the 2 players because you don't need a gunpowder barrel to sink their ship it's just a *bonus*. It is possible to just corner the enemy ship into a nearby island which can cause the enemy to beach themselves which at that point is game over.
This strategy is one of the best for 2 players when perfected and doesn't take a lot of preperation and choose the best pvp player to be the offensive one. Also make sure the offensive player knows the layout of every ship so he can replenish supplies. Hope you enjoy my strategy and congratulations if you made it this far.
Wow really helpful tips thanks for taking the time to post this man!!!
@@OsakaOutlaw No problem!. You can also used cursed cannon balls which makes things more fun and you can also prepare even more by having the offensive player get drunk on grog and puke into a bucket to thow at the enemy.
@@theclassicalpanda4020 Great strategies my fellow sea faring pirate! Would you perchance be intrigued in taking up arms with a gentleman sometime soon on this blue sea?
If your soloing and a galleon is chasing you, you can point your ship in a safe direction so you can board them and drop their anchor. By the time you return to your ship, by dying or mermaid, it will be miles ahead.
Don't drop the gunpowder over the back and hope they run into it. Make sure they are following, and your course is true, jump off while holding the gunpowder and swim with it so you can adjust and have a better chance of hitting them. If you let go directly in front or swim into the hull and die you can respawn on your boat and make your get away while they are dealing with the damage.
i just let them get close enough to drop it so they cant outturn it and BOOM!
U should put gunpowder in the crowsnest
The Fattness how do you move the gunpowder?
U pick up powder kegs just like chests
New update...
Nahh, I accidentally shot someones nest with the cannon and there was a massive explosion
@@lDROlDl lol yea, alot better than shooting below the water line and have a big explosion down there 😂 worst that can happen is your sails fall down, and in say a gallon you still have 2 more
you can sit outside their ship with a bucket and pour water into it
Limbo Gaming, That takes a long time sadly :(
I tried this with a group of four and tested it on our own ship to see if it was a worthy tactic.... it took a very very long time even with four people.
Sound advice. It amazes me how many don't understand the basics. Well made video, nice work.
I hear you explaining the differences between a sloop and a galleon and how the sloop is more agile. And equipping weapons and clothing? Here’s a real tip when engaging a galleon, get behind or in front but keep enough distance to make it harder to get barrel bombed. Slip behind lower your sails get some shots off then lower your sails and reposition. It’s important to maintain distance and not sit still for too long. When engaging other sloops you can raise your sails slightly, turn your wheel half in one direction, this will put you in an auto turn rotation allowing you to get cannon shots off without worrying about steering. Keep in mind this sets you into a position to get barrel bombed so don’t hold this maneuver too long, and keep an eye out for players jumping ship to board or bomb.
Want to set an ambush? Leave your lights on and don’t paint your boat, approach a ship with sails in wrong position then pretend to flee, when they maneuver to approach you set your sails correctly, slip in behind and get to work, make them pay for assuming your an easy target.
Wouldn’t let me edit, my apologies for error, when slipping behind a galleon raise sails get shot off then lower.
If pursued in a sloop, keep an eye on your map to make sure you don't run out of sea and set a course. You're best bet is to go downwind or crosswind, even if pursued by a Galleon. What you want to do is have a gradual slow turn 5-10 degs and then go sit on the sail angle and keep your sail FULL with constant adjustments - you want to make your pursuer to also have to make constant adjustments. Only leave the helm to correct course - a good tactic is to slow turn the other direction occasionally, again 5-10 degs, then again sit on the sail angle and keep it FULL. This works because your pursuer has not only to keep an eye on you but make sure he matches your turns to keep his sail as full as yours - every time he fails to do that you put distance on him. Versus Galleons do the turns a bit more often and even try to engage tacking. Again, you know your plans, you can keep your sails full (sitting on the angle and only leaving to adjust course) your pursuer has to try and keep his sails full to match you but he doesn't know when and how often you're turning or tacking. That's your goal - keep your sails full while making your pursuer lose his by always changing the angle of the wind on the sails. Eventually you'll outrun them all. But again - don't forget to keep an eye on the map to know where the sea ends and plan your next direction that you're gonna use the wind with.
Use snakes as booby traps.
3 maybe 4 will kill a player in 1 go. A good way to protect your haul
shhhhhhhhhh, please shut the fuck up about the snake trick lol
we don't want everyone knowing this or rare will patch it as its op as hell, lol
Get them to sail of the map. If they dont sink, they will at least be distracted long enough for you to escape. I did it once, it works.
I don't know about you, but the second I see a red gallion with a black sail on the horizon, i book it in the opposite direction. Those are some dedicated goons i DONT wanna mess with.
When I first started out from day one, it wasn't until I was rep 10 with all 3 companies, that I when to Sharktooth cove (i think that's what it is called), I met two galleons, they both ganged me. I out maneuvered both of them and took one down using the advantage of rocks and critically aimed cannons. I destroyed the other by boarding it and defeating all four players in a sword fight. I took control of their galleon and wrecked it into the island then blew it up with their own gunpowder barrel. The respawned of course, they tried to recover, but i hopped back on my sloop and began firing on their ship. They eventually sunk, it was an epic battle. My friend, never pass those up, there are only soooo many groups of fools who dont know west from east out there.
I know this video is outdated but I just came across it and I give you a big "Thank You" by subscribing and liking.
My perspective on Sloop vs. Galleon? I love the gunpowder barrel strategy. I also made this strategy up which is (kind of) genius but difficult to achieve:
Go into the Open Ocean, somewhere were Galleons can freely move. And depending on your luck, The Kraken will appear.
As you know, Galleons cannot move in inked water. Sloops can, but they struggle to. Therefore, you made your escape - And while The Kraken is sinking the ship you can get gunpowder barrels to blow up the hull and eventually take their loot secretly (which is optional) as well. Or, another option is to just flee while the Galleon's crew is sCREWed (purposely) by our Lord and Savior Sea Monster.
Lol
tactic.. never anchor just sail into wind then sails up in a pinch all you do is drop sails you already got wind and its faster to drop sail than raise anchor hope this one helps
sry The unknown already said this didnt see it
good video - thank you
couple additionals:
1) always aim for the water line (or just under)
2) using the sword trick to quickly get to their ship to harass.
3) the ladder trick from the captain's quarters on the sloop. great way to evade.
You sir have won my subscription with the flank visual.
that was a HORRIBLE flank manouver that will get you sunk/boarded 90% of the time
I meant the picture that popped up on screen but okay, dude. XD
so did I, it's (potentially pulling from one firing line to) fully broadsiding yourself on them after most likely letting them know you're there (if they didn't already) by hitting them on the way in
The picture of a cow with the flank highlighted. So dense. 😂
ooooooh... derp xD
You can’t out run a galleon while riding the wind, but you can out run it by going against the wind
Underrated comment and pro tip right here. This is a serious pro tip, apply it my fellow sea dogs.
Sloop vs Brigantine vs Galleon? Which is best for a good 2 man crew?
Hey i have some questions about the game, would be awesome if you or someone else can help me. What happens when you ship sinks? Do you get a new one when you spawn again? And how can you loot an enemy ship when its sunken? Just swim down? When you are on an island and someone sinks your ship how can you go back?
When a ship sinks it will spawn right away on a new island. U need to die or use a mermaid to get to the new ship. And no when a ship sinks it disappears whatever loot it had floats up. And will sink eventualy. So if u want it u better eget back fast
JESSETATTOO GAMING thank you very much ^^
One tactic is, there is one spot where a galleon can sail through Shipwreck Bay at full speed. I use it alot when sloops try and outrun me there.
I think it was there that i sunk to galleons in a 2v1 situation. it was 4 days after launch that it happened.
Do not store powder kegs in the hull becase someone can hit it with a cannon or if they board you they can blow it up. Store it in the crows nest instead that way they are less likely to hit it and even if they do it will do virtually no damage to you.
But will bust your masts now. Now nowhere is safe
In my experience they are unlikely to damage the mast. And they are still extremely hard to hit if they are on top. It will also do no damage to people on the deck.
I dont know what ever you think.
Thanjs for reading your comments though.
you are right tho the mast is still the safest place, but now with ship damage, THERE IS NOWHERE TO HIDE! peps snipe nests in hopes for kegs up there. fyi. cheers mate
Oh i didnt know thanks for letting me know
Wanting to point out when on a sloop facing a full gally, most of them are on the island, if one is guarding the gally, rams are key to sinking them. Recently me and my friends stole a skull fort from a gally using rams which made them all flood towards the ship leaving the vault and the mega keg safe. If you can kill that one person guarding the ship, camp the repairs 2 holes can sink a gally if you just camp the repairs.
Looks like I’m going to have to meet new people when I get this game next month. This game is Cross play, right? Xbox One can play with PC gamers? If so, I plan to trade in my PS4S to get an Xbox Ons S. I’m pretty exciting despite having to pay online and playing against other people that; troll and grief.
thats right xbox and pc full xplay same with state of decay 2. more and more games are going that route
Good video. But did u really tell them to store kegs below deck??
look at the date of this vid this was back in beta days.. things were dif and yes b todays state of the game thats a bad chunk of advice, well at least a half should be in the nest
JESSETATTOO GAMING i didnt look at the date my man. My bad. It just showed up on my feed so i watched it
all good mate, i should start saying AT THE TIME I MADE THIS VIDEO in each video cuz things change
I love this guy! Such amazing content and so much positivity! I’ve seen that you reply to and like so many more comments than other youtubers do. Thank you Jessetattoo you’re an amazing youtuber.
yarrr, u flatter me, BOOM there goes my head ty mate, i try and be cool with community
JESSETATTOO GAMING its an honour to have my comment seen by you. Thanks!
Sometimes in a sloop during a fight If I have the other ships anchor dropped. I raise the sails all the way and turn the steering wheel all the way in one direction. The sloops spins and i am able to shoot my one cannon on each side multiple times and if the other boat raises the anchor I drop the sails and the chase is on if they survived that long.
When u are at an island leave sail up and anchor raised. Much faster get away to just drop a sail vs raising the anchor by yourself and more time to repair the ambush. Saved me a dozen times already.
when storing gunpowder kegs, DO NOT leave on ANY deck of the ship, even the very bottom one, as this is probably where thy will try to hit you l, and if that thing explodes, well, your screwed. so instead, keep these keg in the crow's nest, so not only will they not see it and shoot it, pick it up and use it against you, or just hit it by mistake. plus if you keep you treasure there, then chances are that enemies won't see it in time before you shoot them. one last thing, when you park your ship, raise your sails, this makes you harder to spot. and dropping them back down again is rather quick and easy, so why not?
Another tip aim at the water line because the galleon has 2 layers
Subbed for more good content. Personally i'd like to see a vid about the difference between Pirating & bad sportsmanship.
funny u should say that, check out my video called "outpost justice"
Suggestion, when you are bucketing water. You need to get the water completely off the boat. 8:44 was hitting the window a lot and was refilling.
How are you able to take the items out of a barrel without opening the inventory menu?
this video is over a year old mate
JESSETATTOO GAMING so its no longer possible? :D
You can put TNT in the crows nest...yea it can still be shot and blow up but if its up there it wont cause any damage to the ship. Youll lose the TNT but at least no damage. Honestly though hardly anyone ever shoots it up there...the one time I had it blown up was by myself randomly shooting into the air lol
Thanks for the tips I also went though a storm when a galleon was after me and lost them because I was only small that day the storm saved my bacon that time :)
Wow. I had this video playing in the background and listening to what you were saying while playing thr game, and coincidentally i came across an enemy galleon so i used these tips and actually managed to sink their ship and kill them. Then i got 4 thousand gold out of 3 captain chests they had. Thank for the tips
glad to have helped
the quality of editing in this video
Takes a bow
@@CANNABEARDGAMING I am the holy bread after all (I love your videos keep it up, and i love how you say not to put barrels on your top deck but you have one their at 2:39
this is an old vid made much of it during the last days of beta, things change and new things were found out.
most normal players don't stock pile planks, and what I like to do is board them and take a bunch of boards which will make basically all of them go on bucket duty, giving you ample opportunity to load them with more holes.
Haha what a fun video man. Subscribed.
What i do in a solo sloop i keep my distance from galleon cause its a smaller ship to hit and most people usually 90% cant aim with the cannons
agreed
I think a sound tactic is also just to stay alert. I know that sounds simplistic but, unless you have a good reason for it, the fight you avoid is the best fight of all. Keep your eye on the horizon. Check out your destination by telescope before you get there, just to make sure some bugger isn't hanging around to ruin your day.
Also, if you're being chased, try sailing into the wind. I've noticed a sloop goes quicker into the wind than a galleon. Maybe the smaller size means less drag or something? I don't know how, I'm not a scientist, it just works.
midnightmosesuk smaller ship and less surface area on the sail for the wind to push against. The 3 sails of the galleon have more wind going against them
I know this is an old video but there are two big errors. Don't ever put tnt barrells anywhere other than the crows nest. Don't shoot tnt barrells when swimming under the enemy ship.... Just let them float up to the ship, as soon as they touch the ship they explode. If you have multiple crew members just sacrifice yourself to ensure the barrell explodes. Pretty good overall tips though.
Good tips and handy i like being a solo sailer I have been with a crew on a galleon and yes they usually just mess around but taking on a galleon solo is something I've been trying to conquer so I will take any tip I can take lol
Just bought the game cuz of this vid thanks
Enjoy mate
Good for you man its an awesome game have fun.
QUESTION: Could one argue that the sloop is as tanky as a galleon? A galleon has two floors that must be sunk, and sloop has 1 and 1/2 floors that must be sunk (u could say one floor really). The water fills up at the same speed on a galleon as a sloop, yet the galleon as you say "Can take more wholes than the sloop," therefore the galleon has the potential to sink much faster than that of a sloop. I am curious what you think of this idea @JESSETATOO_GAMING
I always play friendly, meaning I don't start trouble. If I'm attacked I will try to fight, but flee to survive if I have to. On my very first game before even boarding my ship for the first time - someone blasted me in the back while I was talking to the merchant! LOL I don't let it bother me.
Just a quick thing is that when I was playing by my self and I got attack plenty of times and I don’t have any thing on but when I was playing with my friends with a load of things on we didn’t get touched once
Nice to finally meet Captain Hitbotc favourite pirate
My favorite ship in the game is the sloop because of the reasons on this video. When i get chased by a galleon or brig i usually go to the storm or loop them in the rocks. If you keep your distance, they will never board you or catch with you.
Your videos got me downloading this game
too Awesome, welcome aboard, you should also check out my discord link in the description, alot cool pirates hang out there and its a good place for chat info and finding groups with good sailors
Any crews looking for sailors
Ok so I have some load outs that can fit certain play styles and players.
1 cutlass and pistol, the standard load out, a cutlass if you need to reload your pistol or run out of ammo and the pistol for medium range damage,
2 cutlass and blunderbuss, a more aggressive play style, the blunderbuss serves for more heavy PvP/PvE combat, the cutlass is to make sure you have a backup if you miss. (Somehow with a blunderbuss)
3 sniper rifle/pistol and blunderbuss, a very risky load out which is mainly PvP exclusive, this has you board an enemy ship and one shot the first person who comes in your way, just remember if you miss both shots or if you didn't kill your target your as good as dead.
pistol and sniper rifle, the common (or my most used) skull fort winning combo, the sniper rifle to take out gunpowder skeletons and the pistol incase you missed or need a backup, as we all know the ammo crates on skull forts this is the most effective combination
Hope this helps.
Yes, hello, what if they board you? Boarding is pretty easy after all.
aaaw man!!! SUB! love the video... here is my tip ♥
1- as SOLO, if a galleon chase you, got to a storm, they cannot survive twice a storm since most of the time people on galleon never get supplies to repair the ship... and at the same time they cannot see you once you make quick shift around and they will lose the sight of you... if you go out to the storm and they still folowing you? turn back and repeat... and they will be crush over time... and you happilly sail away with your loot on a clear sky ♥
IMPORTANT!!! keep an eye on your map at least once and focus on maintain the direction straight! galleons they will totally miss direction and get lost on the storm...
Sailing against the wind when a Galleon chases you is very convenient, even if they do try to head you off by attempting to catch the wind. just board anchor keg and distract, aslong as your ship has a long enough time to sail without you, without crashing of course
what I usually do when using a sloop, is I stay at a far enough distance that it is harder to hit me because I am a smaller target and they are a MUCH larger target and therefore you get all of the advantages when exchanging cannon fire
This helped a lot! Thanks for the upload!
You go against the wind while they are following you because gallions go faster with the wind.
Very nice video! Thanks from your Fellow UA-camr!
Thank you so much
Happy sailin
store gun powder in the crows nest, because in storms lightning targets barrels of gun powder but if its in the crows nest it does no damage.
watching this as im sailing towards a 4 person galleon as a solo sloop wish me luck lmao
If a galleon chases you and you are in a sloop just turn and go against the wind.I think you can outrun them that way.
You said having a flashy ship draws attention. Which it does. But investing your coin into some ship cosmetics I've found intimidates other ships. They don't want to fight an experienced player.
One thing to do is to raise your sails when going around a turning galleon, if you get the right speed you'll never end up beside them
Sloop is the fastest ship againts the wind, maybe the most important tip that was not covered.
Thank you this was helpful
welcome mate
@@CANNABEARDGAMING OH MY GOSH THANK YOU FOR THE HEART
Thank you do much for the tips!!
More then welcome
Thanks for the tips. I’m brand new at this whole gaming thing and appreciate the info. I’m a 50year math teacher Hooked on a pirate game. Haha. Peace and Glory!
Welcome aboard mate. I'm a 40 year old retired artist. Hope to see u on the seas one day
I'm a 54 year old firefighter. I've been gaming for 40 years now, started on the Atari 2600 (and I still suck, lol). I've got a completionist gaming style, my OCD demands I gather all the collectables, achievements, and trophies. This often requires harcore grinding but can be worth it in a good game like Sea of Thieves.
fyrfly89 well now. I’m not the oldest. Ha. Hope to meet ya on the high seas! I just heard that if you’re not interested in attacking to raise the cannons high. I think that’s what I’ll do. I’m hoping to find other sloops to sail with. Or a steady crew Go find treasure.
I like that idea of raising the cannons that may catch on...
I had cannons raised while playing last night but I was still attacked twice. Lol. But I am glad I watched this video. I was chased by a galleon and Jesse, you are very correct. A sloop cannot outrun a galleon. But I had enough distance to get to a larger group of rocks north of chicken island. I was dancing in and out of the narrow spaces as the galleon decided to go around. They grew tired of that, never had a shot and sailed away. I also had my first “quasi” victory yesterday. While on crooks hollow, a sloop sank my parked sloop. I swam to his ship and killed him stole a captains chest and hid it on the island. I wasn’t thinking, I should’ve ran his ship aground but he probably would’ve returned onto his ship before I could get the job done and get his loot. Still, it was my first victory at revenge and nice not getting always getting killed by the more experienced players. Haha. This is too much fun.
Excellent. Well done. 👏👏👏
I prefer putting tnt in the crows nest they may be able to shoot it but if it’s at the bottom of your ship and they board you they can easily take you ship down
Learned something new thanks here’s a sub
rad, welcome aboard mate
I do not recommend using two guns, especially when boarding. You will either die in CQC or run out of ammo before you can run down to the box.
Dont try to cut in front of a galleon, they will always sink you, or it they are running with the wind, will over take you in a heartbeat.
Try using your empty ship as a decoy so that you can swim aboard and cause mayhem by letting it sail out to sea.
I'd say this depends on preference and what your plan is. To each there own. These are just ideas. So with them as you will.
never put them below deck, as soon as a cannon hits near that barrel it detonates causing unnecessary damage. put it in the crows nest, or very tip of the bow on a galleon (i believe on the galleon the bow is long enough for the barrel to not damage the ship upon detonation)
edit: i mean the explosive barrels
yes that bit was older (halfass) advice. the rest stands its ground tho
5:18 LAWL, anyone who flanks a galleon like that is going to have a bad time, hitting upper deck like that when you have a shot on their lower deck is practically useless until they're already full of holes, and tailing that close, you're liable to get turned in on, accurately fired on (knocking you off/outright killing you) and/or boarded from above, and anchored..
Best tactic I've found for dealing with an anchored Gal is to 1/4 - 1/3 sail, and tack back and forth in figure 8s/circles behind or, if you're feeling adventurous, in front of them, giving you enough speed to make it hard to be boarded, but not so much that you can't turn out of harms way before fully pulling into their broadside, and potentially allowing you to get a headstart on getting around them if they raise anchor/turn to broadside you.
Similar tactics can often work for dealing with a moving Gal, but more often than not you end up having to use your small/low profile to you advantage as much as your manoeuvrability, and just hope they are random matchmade players that are a worse shot than you and ignore repairs to try to board/shoot you, rather than a well practised premade group.
Finally, hiding powderkegs below deck is a good way to get insta sunk, ESPECIALLY if they get caught in the radius of one placed under you, or someone boards you and gets below deck - they ALWAYS go in the crowsnest, or on the sail spurs, where they can't damage your own ship, as climbing the mast takes long enough to take 4 pistol rounds to the back, which is way more than it takes to kill you, and once up there you either have to jump down to deck - almost half killing yourself, jump overboard with one and hope you can detonate it before being shot/they get out of range, or drop it over the edge and hope you can get a shot on it from there/get down to shoot it before someone picks you off.
30 minutes into my first foray with gaming...I was shot, my boat looted and then they burnt it down. I am so not a gamer but now determined to burn every galleon down to the water line.
you forgot about raising the sail (without the Anchor) will decrease your speed to zero
Tactic: Once stopped IF your rudder is midship (centered) and all sails raised...... raise anchor and ship will stay in place. This helps with 0 degree turns and to be able to just drop sails and go. This is for non storm applications. Tactic: 0 degree turns with all sails up; also backing ship up when wheel is turned fully port or starboard left/right. Hope this helps someone!🤔😯🙃
if you swim under a ship that's parked you can release a explosive barrel and swim away. they will detonate on impact when they float up to the ship.
Im trying to solo on my sloop, but damn is it tough, having to manage your speed/sail direction while being ready to adjust course at a moments notice, add another player or a storm/kraken/meg damaging you while you're trying to aim your cannons or make repairs and bail and it really becomes an absolute nightmare. I honestly feel like soloing is not a viable option in SoT atleast not unless you're a multi tasking god , and even then you better be okay with spending alot more time to make alot less gold than you would in a crew of 2 or more.
Good video, new to the channel nice job
Welcome aboard
dont store gunpowder barrels under your deck as it will mess you up if a ship shoots yours, store it in the crows nest. if it explodes it does no damage.
Yesterday someone sunked my ship, a friendly sloop picked me up and 5 minutes later we sunked 2 galleons, rebbered 3-5 sloops, earned so much money and won a skeleton head event (i dont now the name of that) so there are good and bad players! Never shoot first!
So, i was playing solo and i see this duo pull up on my side... I start nodding to tell them to please not shoot me... So they just left me alone 😂
You can turn much faster if you just raise the sails with the wheel turned then drop them again
You can look at the flag and tell what direction the wend is blowing
This guy deserves so many more subs
this is a very old vid but ty i agree lol
I recently started, so now i know not to buy cloyhes, so i'll save my gold for equipment
Hey brother, I just subbed. I’m a fellow creator also doing sea of thieves and a variety of other games. I like what you’re doing, Keep up the awesome work
awesome ty, I just passed my 1-year making content and something very recently has really clicked recently for me and Im growing its exciting & encouraging times.
Play together
For real this is a good guide. I main sloop and know how powerful the sloop is. Always put tnt in the crows nest.
Forgot about luring ships into hostile waters! There are many islands that have trigger happy skeletons that will always shoot at you if you go near them, so keep in mind which islands have these and use them to your advantage.Also a good technique I often use when being chased is to look for other ships more often then not trolls will be trolls if you lead them to someone else they'll more than likely lose interest in you and go after them.
Fox N not a bad idea but those skellys can't hit the broad side of a barn
Store gun powder barrel s on the crows nest it will not do damage to the ship if exploded
I don't really trust friendly players that much, I once spent 2 hours getting loot and as I was about to reach the outpost, the megalodon showed up and my teammate started shooting it, another ship showed up and said they'd help, we both anchored our ship, they killed us, and took a good 10k coins and 2 hours worth of treasure...
Come up behind em is good but alongside is suicide! I always lose swordfights and dont know why????
Your handbrake turn was bad you should raise the anchor as soon as it drops your ships wheel should be correctly adjusted before you drop anchor
Dont put barrels anywhere other then crows nest
ak47 truth.
If you hide kegs in the crows nest it can’t do damage to your ship
