2:40 it's faster to just use the search mode on the stargazer and only turn the wheel if the constellation is obscured by the environment. discovered this after 2 days of grinding to a million gold :(
Yeah, someone else also mentioned this, I don't know how I didn't think about it, it's so much faster that way! I'll definitely do it like that from now on!
@@Drakhulis just turn the stargazer and try to memorize and trace the patterns the best you can. Like someone else mentioned, just move the wheel if the pattern is blocked by something,
@@Jun_ljs there are two modes on the stargazer (the spotlight), the larger spotlight is search mode, where you can search for constellations while aiming the beam quickly. the smaller spotlight is focus mode, where you can trace the constellation shown in search mode while aiming the beam more slowly. you switch between modes with [interact].
One thing I do as I'm rolling towards the camp is throw up a short quest dig sight or skelly crew and I try to get it to spawn on the camp so I can an, extra item to sell and a bit more rep to spend up grade 5 also look for message in a bottle to try and get some extra rep
It's in fact very fast money, but to gain a little more time, i do some things differently. First, to go down I don't use the elevator, I just jump down and grab the ladder at the bottom to cancel fall damage. Second, I try as much not using the wheel to rotate the constellations as it is very long compared to the light thing that can rotate completely. That's it, and with that it's basically shortening the time down there, living your sloop unsupervised and vulnerable.
Grabbing the ladder is also a very good option and now that I think about it, it might look even cooler... I never thought to rely mainly on the light and not the wheel, I'll have to try it!
If the main goal is gold then I would say to raise Order of Souls, dive to start the second tall tale in the Shores of Gold tall tale that is called "The Cursed Rouge". This will make you spawn at Plunder Outpost. As soon as you get up from the water, turn right 90 degrees and you will be facing Lookout Point that is one camp and barely one square from the outpost. Since there often a big chance that skelly captains will spawn random on the island, you will get a boost to the OOS emissary plus extra gold from that. And also from the orb itself. So do the camp, sell at the outpost and travel a square away from the outpost to be able to dive again. This way you don´t have that mutch on the ship if you get sunk plus any reaper wont see you until you are away from that server. But to add, I have arrived from diving to the outpost and a fresh spawn ship has been on the outpost but it happen once every twenty dive so. But keep that in the mindset so you check that. Of course this would work good with Emissary flag, but if you are level 5 then everyone can see you and since pepole are still hunting them flag, specific level 5....you can be a bigger target while being downstairs and doing the camp :)
Yes! I also love this option! It's a lot less risky, which is very good for some! I actually heard of this before making this video but I then I also found my option and decided why not show this one too! Thank you for taking your time to write this comment! :)
@@CaptainGigel Yeah no worries and different methods are good depending of what are you playstyle. Since I mainly did it for the 50 orbs commendation I wanted the speed of it and less sailing or being a target (PvE Lord) :) So it´s always good with different videos and then find inspiration from each other and help what works for each other :)
Ohhh yes I'll definitely use your method for the 50 orb commendation, it's definitely faster that way! You are totally right! That's what a game community should always be!
Great video! I also did this technique on my own with the exception of not blowing up the kegs and stacking the 3 kegs you get in the waves 2-4 (always one keg in each wave) in front of the vault, where the captain will spawn. You can oneshot them with these kegs and while being a little more risky, this is a bit faster to do since you don't have to worry about slashing the captain for a minute. Another note: The first and last waves of skeletons always spawn in front of the vault and on the sides, the waves 2-4 always spawn on the sides, so if you get the kegs in place quickly, you don't really have to worry about skeletons spawning in the same place. If you miss a keg, you can almost always find one or two kegs in the area, mostly behind a pillar and not in plain sight. Maybe this helps for some people :)
Yes! Stacking the kegs in one place and then blowing them up is a great option! I honestly don't know why I didn't think of it... Thank you for the great comment!
You get 1/2 a lvl every time, so just raise the emmesarry you want to lvl ups flag and do it like 100 times. It takes about 10 minutes each time. Unless you have the burning blade, then it’s like 2 minutes and it helps raise the blades value.
If you have the level/raid unlocked diving to the camps for athena is also a banger way to get easy money being around 30k (without emmisary) in just under 2 minutes per camp without distractions
Oh yeah, I actually need to try that! And it's also a pretty low level dive, which means a lot of people that reached PL should have it! Thanks for reminding me of this! :)
another problem is that the path between these 2 camps is on the NW-SE axis, so you'll always be going with or against the waves, you'll have to manage the wheel the whole way and it's even worse with bad wind
That is indeed very annoying, I saw someone said they were doing the other one in the Wilds and then the one in the Ancient Isles next to Ancient Spire, maybe that's a better route!

Yeah, I don't get that... It doesn't make any sense... I mean... Wouldn't the Pirate Lord also want to see what this "Knowledge of the Ancients" is all about? I just don't get it...
It fits soooo well with SoT, I love it! I recently found a Monkey Island 2 soundtrack playlist and it's a gold mine! I'll have a video that uses even more of the soundtrack in a few weeks, I can't wait! :)))
Yes! Exactly like that! You don't dive to the Skelly Camp, you just go to it like you would to a Sea Fort and you'll get the orb, hope this helped! :))
Awesome vid man, that editing is engaging. Thought for a second there you're a big channel! Question, I'm always playing for the Merchant emissary, will this work for me as well?
Thank you, it means a lot to me! Yes! This will work really well with the Merchant emissary, it can be a bit harder to get to grade 5, I chose Gold Hoarder for the video because Sea Forts have more Gold Hoarder loot for some reason. But I think getting another 2 orbs or doing the Sea Fort 3 times should get you there!
If you’re doing this for merchant I find it’s actually the quickest. Raise your flag before buying any supplies. Buy all the crates from merchant. You’ll be level 2 already on your emissary. Then choose a raid on a sea fort and dive. This should get you to close to level 4. Sell that loot. Then either dive again for another fort or start the camp/fort rotations. You’ll be 5 after a handful of runs even if you don’t do a second sea fort.
even with a emissiary flag on 5 selling on the trade where i can sell all i dont get the 30.000 bonus why is that ? do i need specific the gold hordes ?
Uhh... Did you use the Guild Emissary Flag? All the other emissarys give a x2.5 bonus when at grade 5, but the Guild emissary only gives a x1.75 bonus at grade 5. If not, I'm not really sure what's going on...
Nice video bro, but I got a question? So you can also do the star outline animals that are on the sides instead of the 3 in the front? What do those do?
Oh those are not very good honestly... If you complete them a little door will open and you'll get a pile of gold, that gives about 500-1000 gold. I don't do them as it takes more time that I could use getting more orbs! :) I hope this helped!
@CaptainGigel ahh I gotcha. Yeah I've completed them before kinda expecting more money or something significant given its like 3 more figures you need to trace but never saw anything.
@@ExpressoDepresso_ Oh yeah it's a little hard to see where the door that opens is... It should be right beneath the stone with the animal that you have to trace is! :)
I know...! I only played solo for the first 3 years of playing SoT, some commendations are very hard to get solo... But at least this method also helps with the Season 13 commendations!
It should only take 1 and a half hours, maybe closer to 2 if you move a little slower with completing the Skelly Camps. Also 5-6 Orbs should get you there! Hope this helps!
You need to sail away from it and wait about 10 minutes, that's why in this video I was alternating between Picaroon Palms and Blind Man's Lagoon, while you're doing one of them the other is resetting! Hope this helped! :)
Oh you can just go to the Islands! I used the Wild Rose Tall Tale to get to the Skelly Camp faster because I didn't spawn at Dagger Tooth or Sanctuary Outpost. Hope this helped! :)))
No, unfortunately you can't. I made a mistake in the video by putting the Hunter's Call in the animation with the rest of the trading companies, but I updated the pinned comment to let everyone know! I hope this helped!
I KNOW! I DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENS... And it would make a lot more sens from a lore perspective for it to be Athena loot, I don't understand what they were thinking honestly...
@@CaptainGigel idk either it feels like a different group took over writing, or at the least give us more info on why we are even stopping these rituals
@Burn2themall Agreed! The story seems very weird and convoluted when it should be the best and most interesting, I don't understand what's going on….
I does become harder if that happens, but in the worst case scenario you can sell all of your Orbs and then dive to another server to keep your emissary flag!

Problem its most of the times you have to rotate the wheel..you saved around 10 seconds..
You need to lower the platform or it will be a big waste of time when you wanna go back up. But you can lower it than jump if youre fast enough
I used the shiver retreat and barnacle cay one today for a few hours and made over 1 million while grinding for the commendation - highly recommend .
Oh yes that another great route! I prefer the design of those 2, they look a lot better than Picaroon Palms and Blind Man's Lagoon...

A better way imo would be to get a grade 5 from a voyage and then dive to a tall tail that’s right next to a camp do that sell and repeat
That's also a great option, but if you get bored of it, this is also a great option :)

You could also dive to revenge of the morningstar to go to dagger tooth

keep using monkey island 2 music!! it fits so well :)
It fits soooo well with SoT, I love it! I recently found a Monkey Island 2 soundtrack playlist and it's a gold mine! I'll have a video that uses even more of the soundtrack in a few weeks, I can't wait! :)))
How do you get the orb?
I take it you do the skeleton camp without a voyage?
Like how to have to do a ghost fort to get the ghost treasure items?
Yes! Exactly like that! You don't dive to the Skelly Camp, you just go to it like you would to a Sea Fort and you'll get the orb, hope this helped! :))
