The Killer Whale is the correct set for me. All I want to do is fish, and the only loot I collect is from the ungodly amount of Ocean Crawlers, spirits, and skeletons that come onto island shores when I'm collecting bait. Say what you will, but I'm a fisherman.
Ah, a real pirate. I too enjoy the game more drunk, calms my nerves so that I don't stress out about loosing my stuff. I genuinely got an eye twitch once until I sold all my stuff once it got to a somewhat reasonable amount. Didn't even meet another ship that entire session, gold will do that to ya
I like how I got to the title screen for the Hunter stereotype as I read "They're terrifying" so terrifying that a comment and the video both about them managed to link up in perfect timing
Not gonna lie, I am a hunter sloop and no one realizes how deadly they can be. Even though it’s a cheap set and easy to get, it’s used by terrifying people and they have no remorse whatsoever.
You know what's ironic about Reapers? It's said that they stand for "battle and bloodshed", but I've been killed more by non-emissary ships with no loot and more bloodlust than Michael Myers.
Honestly tho! I never understand people who don’t fly reapers while picking more fights than an alcoholic baby-daddy. Literally just leaving money on the table.
All my complaints about excessive pvp would go away if the only times I was sunk I was an emissary, they were the same trading company as me, they were reaper emissaries, had the reaper flag on or I was doing a world event or started the hostilities. Almost every single time I was sunk it was because I was "in the way" when another crew wanted to park at an outpost, I was fishing/doing a tall tale or simply I guess the fact alone the amount of cannonballs they spend of me has the likelyhood to be recovered with a bonus 1 or 2 was enough reason.
me and my bro were just tryna do some noice treasure quests until a reaper emissary ship spotted us and decided to chase us down to the end of the planet. in the end i re-instated why I was the one driving the boat by losing them in the fog of the cursed golden sands island. after that, they messaged my friend some salty stuff and said they would come back for us when they were reaper 5. in the end they chased us to an outpost where there was another crew and their brig that was generous enough to rid us of those chasers.
@@yodasnot-so-wellcousin445 if its still on the line and you get cannoned or outright killed you'll lose it. I've also panicked, hit my food hotkey and accidentally eaten fish too many times
Aw dude you just reminded me! Some lame ass came up to me while storm fishing, told me he had a stormfish on his hook still, then goes on to sniper shot me, friend boards to make sure I can’t live to repair, and sinks me. I hate people sometimes
I've kinda turned it into a little game since i got the legendary hunter of the sea of thieves title. I still sometimes sail out with the full ship set and offer people the fish i have on me for 1 piece of loot... depending on wether i just came from a shipwreck before you may trade a tiny trinket for splashtails or get a trophy shadow stormfish
That part about Ghost ships "barrowing down on smaller ships like raging bulls" is definitely true. I was on a sloop and had just sank a skelly sloop, when I went to go poon the loot, a ghost galleon came out of *nowhere* and practically mounted my ship. I didn't survive after that..
Here's the thing: *Inhales* *I wasn't.* Better yet, I checked my horizon before I went for it and they were nowhere to be seen. Maybe they server merged?
I used the admiral hull on a sloop alot and everytime I saw another ship I usually would leave the island I am at as soon as I could to avoid getting sunk (I could probably count on my hand how many friendlies I encountered). Which developed my motto of "if there's another sail it's time to hit the trail"
Same, if my crew is doing the quest I'm usually up in the crows nest scanning the horizon for even a pixel of a ship in the distance to give them heads up as quick as possible
my crew of dumbfucks I play with have a different motto. "Another sail means rain some hail." aka. we are murder hobos and somehow manage to get away with this shit despite only one of us on cannon for a brig
I really enjoy the Black Pearl for 1 reason. I just love the movies. Plain and simple. It feels fantastic playing with my regular crew on the galleon with it on and taking down attacking ships while my character is in the Captain Barbossa costume.
Ikr? I don't dress myself up or RP as the movies, but man it's fun having the soundtrack playing while doing some dumb shit solo on a sloop pretending to be Jack Sparrow. ... Well, I guess I do RP then.
I make my own outfits, but I love the Pearl. The lore behind it, the films they come from, and the fact they're not over the top like some of these. I just own this and the Queen Anne's but I don't really use the Queen Anne's, to me it feel over the top.
The ashen dragon stereotype is so fucking accurate. My friends use only ashen dragon stuff and say everything else is bad. Then proceed to complain about everything like “how did we already sink” when they had 3 kegs BENEATH DECKS THE REAPER ONE IS EVEN MORE ACCURATE. They FUCKING COMPLAIN WHEN ATTACKED.
Back when I did play alot of SoT, every time I went reaper I sorta just thought "If I make almost a million gold today then cool, if I sink after a damn good fight also cool". Not sure why that's not the go to mindset for reapers
glad you've mentioned mercenary!!! been using the hull for years! you honestly couldn't be more right about my incompetence with the sword, yet i find myself doing pvp way more then fort bosses.
Didn't know about the reaper stereotype for the longest time. Me and my friend relentlessly hunted people with that set, and would just surround people in the reaper outfit and point at them while their soul was floating up
Wait the wild rose one was accurate for me and my best friend for a long time. We stayed in one island for a long time because we were being idiots , hanging out, making each other laugh… good times.
So he basically describes anyone using a Gold Hoarder set as "somewhat competent, but still heavily paranoid and generally cowardly"? Yeah... yeah, that's me alright...

A small thing about the Xbox set. Yes, it's "harder" to play with a controller than keyboard and mouse, but 90% of the combat isn't about the quickscoping and sensitivity, it's about tactics. Know where your enemy is, what they are doing and predict what they are going to do, and you can wreck them. I play with a controller despite being on PC (long story), and I still win a majority of the time against other players, because I actually know what I'm doing. So the controller isn't even an excuse! Learn to adapt.
Honestly as an Xbox player I was just really confused about that part of the video, I never felt that I was at a disadvantage because of the hardware, kind of just felt really gratuitous here...
that killer instinct one is shockingly true, I fought a gally with those damn sails for like an hour with me mate and after I finally boarded them and got all 4 they sunk
As someone who is new to SoT, I use the hunter hull livery and plain black sails. I try to do my quests without being noticed but that doesn't always work out. Haha! I just subbed to your channel. Keep up the great content!
Order ships have random loot because it's usually easier to find good skulls through the RNG of island hopping. Bounty quests are a pain in the ass. Especially when you're a solo sloop trying to track down a single specific spawnpoint on an island the size of Thieves Haven.
Being a forsaken is one of the most fun things in the game, cus its the ship set I see the least. I designed my entire outift around forsaken, ashen curse, and scorched forsaken stuff (Ashen winds). my cat is an ashen curse cat, and both my weapons are forsaken. I can agree about the devils roar part, but I also love to hang around the ancient isles and find fishermen. I then make alliances with them and do missions while they fish, and we both get rep and money from one another. I run at full ghost set and Dark adventurer, I either parley all others (if possible, if not then we fight) except parrots which I avoid altogether.
When it comes to the stereo types for alliance flags, I'd say, if they got gold hoarder emissary they fall into two types, The Gits who just need more gold for pirate legend stuff, and The Pussies of the reaper emissaries. The second is because they are just reapers emissaries who are so scared of being seen on the map they hide at ports as gold hoarders and chase ANY ship (even if they got no loot or on a tale tale) to the fartherest reaches of the map and YES even through flameheart islands even if they get heavily damaged, Oh they are also more likely to triple board if they are on a galleon. I write this due to my many experiences with players who do this.
Can't exactly blame pve reapers. It's one of the easiest to level factions in the game, since it takes every kind of loot. Everyone knows that as far as lore goes reapers are *supposed* to be all about fighting and plundering. For some reason rare didn't consider this with their mechanics though. And not everyone cares about rp that much. Should've implemented that you only get the maximum amount of gold and rep if the turned in loot was previously claimed by someone else, like with fallen flags.
I will never not chase down and try to kill any reaper who doesn't go after me. If I'm tier 5 merchants and a tier 5 reapers is an island away and doesn't come at me? I'm coming at them. You owe it to the flame when you sign that contract, raise that flag. You will plunder, loot, maim and destroy to satiate his neverending hunger for violence. If you fail this simple task? You shall burn with the rest. Hail flameheart, and let the seas burn. And on that note, why are you playing the most rp-friendly faction with the thematic cosmetics when you don't wanna actually play the faction as intended. It just seems like a very boring way to play.
@@ReddCrystal because that same rp-friendly faction is BY FAR the most profitable faction if you want to grind gold. Again, not everyone cares about rp or what the original idea behind reaper's was. People just see a faction with massive bonuses. Don't like it? Tell rare to remove the gold bonus for any loot that wasn't acquired through PvP, then you'll have a faction that's actually rp friendly.
Addition: the shrouded ghost set, people who have this never actually killed a shrouded or probably even seen one. These guys only use the sword and sniper. They think there tough just because they spent 5-10 dollars on a Ship set. Advice: don’t use the shrouded set until you actually killed the shrouded and have the title that proves it.
i got the ship set, outfit and title since i killed it while teaching some noobs how to play, those two were so happy and iv been constantly using the set ever since
@@Bacxaber there was one time I confused the fuck out of a buddy by loading a fire work into his cannon right after he fired (we were fighting skellies on an island so no harm no foul and such) he had no clue what was going on while was just laughing my ass off
The reaper one is totally true. My friend and I were on an unpainted sloop once, a reaper galleon flying emissary but also alliance went past us, ran into a rock and sunk.
I was always curious if you were ever gonna talk about your “copywrite infringement” bit again. Man what a time to be alive where blasting “He’s a Pirate” actually makes sense and is very fitting.
As a representative, and member of the Parrot community, I just have to say that I'm stumped on how you got that so perfectly. Me and my friends just get drunk, play music, and dance around!!! Sure, we play a tall tale here and there, but we have fun in the process. Also, we would like to thank you for calling us cool guys. Thank you for your time. :D
It's too late, Randy-Bo-Bandy's grease runs deep, once he touches something there is no getting it out, wonder if that is why Duke went all rotten, grease was too strong
Shark Hunter/Hunter; "youll never see these do a Fort alone but that one sloop in a 4 ship alliance is usually them" me... that's me, nail on the head.
I'm... surprised. My mates got me into sea of thieves 2 weeks ago and we've been playing on and off together. The one amongst us who's played the most started us off with a tall tale. He uses the wild rose set. I got it all myself since I thought it was pretty good good looking. Difference is I rock the Spanish Inquisition look and do whatever I fancy lol
The Merchant Ambassador is my go-to set (especially now that it's complete) or mixed in with the Merchant sails/hull/wheel/capstan and sea dog cannons (easy aiming with those). I never shoot first. I literally never attack first. But, if you attack my ship, the night is over at that point. We'll have a running naval battle on the seas until one or both finally have to call it a night hours later. I will run you by forts if I'm outnumbered and outmatched. I will firebomb your ship a hundred times over. I'll keg as many times as needed, and once the opportune moment arises I'll double back to chainshot and circle you until sunk (normally once you're on fire and at least one or two crew members are on the ferry). The exception to my never attack first rule is Reapers. They get sunk any chance I get.
i remember getting chased by a merchant galleon as a 2 man brig (third guy had to go) for like 40 minutes straight, they were running the full merchant set, emissary and all and were ruthlessly persuing us until they got distracted when we sailed them into a world event lol, i guess we can't interfere with their trade routes if they kill us xd
Awesome video! Just wanted to say even thought you funny post often, you are very active in the sea of thieves community, I see you on Reddit all the time, and am always happy to hear what you have to say
Me and my brother in our sloop being paranoid and watching a far away sloop who was approaching thieves haven, only for it to get instantly fucking folded by a ghost galleon just sitting in the middle which slowly emerged from inside the island to consume its prey will always be the most terrifying and cinematically cool moment in sea of thieves ever. This was back in like 2018 or so, and the ‘Athena 10’ ships as we called them were THE thing to fear
A noob reaper 3 brigatine hard anchored and vollied our defensless fishing sloop to pieces while we were fishing at mermaids hideaway. After pistol/snipe two tapping the crew comming after us on the island and complaining about us being " f-ing sweat lords." we politly told them that if they knew better they would have left the fishing boat alone and now, theyre going to get sweated on. 10min later we dumbster them with default supplies in our sloop and then went back to fishing while collecting their salty reaper tears about fishingboats. Moral of the story: experienced players would have checked. Noobs, learn the hard way.
I just recently picked up this game, and I’ve been looking up tons of stuff about it to get good. One of the first things I did when I got the money was get the Hunter stuff, since I think it looks really cool and fits my irl vibe. I also mostly solo sloop. … …I think I am about to become a monster…
5:57 Good thing I’m not such stereotype, I got his set cause I was a massive fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and got to meet Depp while I was in the hospital for cancer…
4:47 Alright let me add something to that I mostly smile when im on PC and if your on PC expect little 7 year olds who are new to the game and will also beg you not to sink them I experienced most players of the xbox ship set to beg you not to take there loot or be toxic over the mic.
Banger video as usual, additional stereotype: Full DA ship/clothing set is a pretty good sign that the opponent will be mediocre at fighting but will whip out every slur they can when you prove it to them in combat. Those also have some of reaper in them, meaning when their shit gets on fire or they have quite literally anything to lose they'll make a run for it
One I'd like to add. Triumphant Sea Dog ship set. This set is mainly used by TDMers who step out into adventure once every major update. They're good at pirate vs pirate combat but bad at everything else. Also if they manage to kill you once, they will bucket you like there is no tommorow.
I use the full Castaway Bilge Rat set lmao, and the full clothes set except for the shirt because funny bare chested pirate, I guess I'm just a sea hobo at heart. If I was to make a stereotype for myself and my mates playing Sea of Thieves, here's what I reckon it would be. "If you see this guy, you can be absolutely sure he already sees you and he's thinking about how to react. These ships are usually sloops or brigs, and they're always paranoid about being attacked out of nowhere, and so they always have someone standing guard. If they're a Gold Hoarder or Order emissary, they'll probably run away from you on sight, but if they're a Reaper emissary, they'll charge you on sight and probably try and keg you. It doesn't usually work out very well for them, but you can be damn sure they'll try again if they see you again."
Hey dude pirate legend here. Cool video tho as a legend I'm happy to do alliances and help players as long as they don't board with out permission.Thats just a sailirs law even to this day I'm the experienced captain of my crew
Me and my homies tend to go all black, shark hunter ship livery, pure black sails, turn all light sources off and become one with the murky void of the ocean… We also Viking burial at the end of every session! Always open to Alliance! If you see CharredRose666 on your travels, it’s me and i hope we have MANY travels together!
Man these are incredible. I dont know why now all of a sudden youtube decided I needed to see these but I'm glad it happened. Also, my theory on "Running Reapers" is that its the people like me that are terrible at PvP but need to raise reaper to level it up lol. We cant actually fight, we just want to get it leveled up and be done with it lmao. Then I hit resume and that's exactly what you said haha.
The Killer Whale is the correct set for me. All I want to do is fish, and the only loot I collect is from the ungodly amount of Ocean Crawlers, spirits, and skeletons that come onto island shores when I'm collecting bait. Say what you will, but I'm a fisherman.
To quote my last time playing:
"GET THE SAILS DOWN"
"I'm fishing"
"STOP FISHING, WE ARE GETTING BLASTED."
"no"
I’m also a fisherman, but I dont have the ship set so everyone try’s to kill me
Happy to see a fellow fisherman.

I run at full ghost set and Dark adventurer, I either parley all others (if possible, if not then we fight) except parrots which I avoid altogether.
The amount of times ive seen shark hunters replicate The Video is astounding… and each time they succeed.
ngl, this is pretty much spot on.
When it comes to the stereo types for alliance flags, I'd say, if they got gold hoarder emissary they fall into two types, The Gits who just need more gold for pirate legend stuff, and The Pussies of the reaper emissaries.
The second is because they are just reapers emissaries who are so scared of being seen on the map they hide at ports as gold hoarders and chase ANY ship (even if they got no loot or on a tale tale) to the fartherest reaches of the map and YES even through flameheart islands even if they get heavily damaged, Oh they are also more likely to triple board if they are on a galleon.
I write this due to my many experiences with players who do this.
5:47 this is too accurate. This is exactly what I do except I don’t server hop and usually end up getting bullied by the person I charged lmao
Can't exactly blame pve reapers. It's one of the easiest to level factions in the game, since it takes every kind of loot. Everyone knows that as far as lore goes reapers are *supposed* to be all about fighting and plundering. For some reason rare didn't consider this with their mechanics though. And not everyone cares about rp that much.
Should've implemented that you only get the maximum amount of gold and rep if the turned in loot was previously claimed by someone else, like with fallen flags.
FINALLY, someone recognizes this as well
I will never not chase down and try to kill any reaper who doesn't go after me. If I'm tier 5 merchants and a tier 5 reapers is an island away and doesn't come at me? I'm coming at them. You owe it to the flame when you sign that contract, raise that flag. You will plunder, loot, maim and destroy to satiate his neverending hunger for violence. If you fail this simple task? You shall burn with the rest. Hail flameheart, and let the seas burn.
And on that note, why are you playing the most rp-friendly faction with the thematic cosmetics when you don't wanna actually play the faction as intended. It just seems like a very boring way to play.
@@ReddCrystal because that same rp-friendly faction is BY FAR the most profitable faction if you want to grind gold.
Again, not everyone cares about rp or what the original idea behind reaper's was. People just see a faction with massive bonuses.
Don't like it? Tell rare to remove the gold bonus for any loot that wasn't acquired through PvP, then you'll have a faction that's actually rp friendly.
100% agreed. Its entirely Rare's fault for making them the most profitable pve faction in the game.
I know these are supposed to be a joke but they are surprisingly accurate and actually helps me predict the approaching ship a lot.
Who said they're jokes? These are my honest experiences.
Addition: the shrouded ghost set, people who have this never actually killed a shrouded or probably even seen one. These guys only use the sword and sniper. They think there tough just because they spent 5-10 dollars on a
Ship set. Advice: don’t use the shrouded set until you actually killed the shrouded and have the title that proves it.
I bought it when I was new cuz I thought it increased the chance. I just reached 1k hours and refuse to use it until I kill a shrouded
You mean I shouldn't use a ship set that I like because I didnt kill some dumb rng shark? Yeah sure
i got the ship set, outfit and title since i killed it while teaching some noobs how to play, those two were so happy and iv been constantly using the set ever since
Are people who earned the sails and hull for free during the event allowed?
@@EverlastingIvy seeing as it’s earned I’d say so
Thanks for the killer whale, I am not one but they deserve respect for there grind and they deserve better
Ik I am late but Jesus that gold hoarder one was spot on
6:18 you know unless something unexpected happens in the next few weeks, this stereotype is gonna apply to the party boat set
Nah, in my experience, fireworks ships are always hostile galleons.
@@Bacxaber that is HELLA ironic
@@Bacxaber there was one time I confused the fuck out of a buddy by loading a fire work into his cannon right after he fired (we were fighting skellies on an island so no harm no foul and such) he had no clue what was going on while was just laughing my ass off
I used to run the hunter set and he described me form a year back perfectly.
Been waiting a while and so far I am NOT disappointed, great work.
The reaper one is totally true. My friend and I were on an unpainted sloop once, a reaper galleon flying emissary but also alliance went past us, ran into a rock and sunk.
“Every postal 2 has a postal 3”
I just found your channel and haven’t played sea of thieves for years but, I already love you holy shit
I have been waiting for this video for so long keep up the good work
I wouldn't call this good work.
I was always curious if you were ever gonna talk about your “copywrite infringement” bit again. Man what a time to be alive where blasting “He’s a Pirate” actually makes sense and is very fitting.
Honestly, mic isn't bad at all. Good vid man, I enjoy seeing the hilarious shit you cook up.
The mic is atrocious, but thanks.
As a representative, and member of the Parrot community, I just have to say that I'm stumped on how you got that so perfectly. Me and my friends just get drunk, play music, and dance around!!! Sure, we play a tall tale here and there, but we have fun in the process. Also, we would like to thank you for calling us cool guys. Thank you for your time. :D
As a Nightshine Parrot user, yes, I am a fort vulture.
Good for you go touch grass let me know what it tastes like
I got the mentality of a Shark hunter, the skins of a ghost, and the combat ability of a Morningstar.
Always an elite series
It's too late, Randy-Bo-Bandy's grease runs deep, once he touches something there is no getting it out, wonder if that is why Duke went all rotten, grease was too strong
The grease cursed graymarrow
Me as merchant:
I can already feel like I am turning into what exactly you just said
Gotta love those 480p bangers
Shark Hunter/Hunter; "youll never see these do a Fort alone but that one sloop in a 4 ship alliance is usually them" me... that's me, nail on the head.
6:45 thank you, its annoying to be a fisher these days
"THE BLUE GUNS!" gets me every time.
I'm... surprised. My mates got me into sea of thieves 2 weeks ago and we've been playing on and off together. The one amongst us who's played the most started us off with a tall tale. He uses the wild rose set. I got it all myself since I thought it was pretty good good looking.
Difference is I rock the Spanish Inquisition look and do whatever I fancy lol
NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION
"no one owns the Merc ship set"
Me a merc: I have the se- wait do I?
The Merchant Ambassador is my go-to set (especially now that it's complete) or mixed in with the Merchant sails/hull/wheel/capstan and sea dog cannons (easy aiming with those).
I never shoot first. I literally never attack first. But, if you attack my ship, the night is over at that point. We'll have a running naval battle on the seas until one or both finally have to call it a night hours later. I will run you by forts if I'm outnumbered and outmatched. I will firebomb your ship a hundred times over. I'll keg as many times as needed, and once the opportune moment arises I'll double back to chainshot and circle you until sunk (normally once you're on fire and at least one or two crew members are on the ferry).
The exception to my never attack first rule is Reapers. They get sunk any chance I get.
You described me so perfectly with Wild Rose I can’t believe it
i remember getting chased by a merchant galleon as a 2 man brig (third guy had to go) for like 40 minutes straight, they were running the full merchant set, emissary and all and were ruthlessly persuing us until they got distracted when we sailed them into a world event lol, i guess we can't interfere with their trade routes if they kill us xd
A shame they nerfed trade routes into oblivion. They used to be great money.
Cliff the story guy is really the only one honoring the point of being a reaper’s bones emmisary and everyone else is a runner’s bones emmisary lol
I fight people as a reaper too. I fight anyone regardless, actually. I love PvP.
8:48 oh thats why i sank so many times, my friend always picked this
Full Bone Crusher ship and outfit is my favorite to run, love the aesthetic
As a parrot ship player, I have never been offended by something I 100% agree with
as a nightshine parrot i dont agree with what they described
it looks good but im more akin to the wild rose people in nature
I can not agree more
Bro I'm with the gold hoarders and you perfectly explained my pirate
Awesome video! Just wanted to say even thought you funny post often, you are very active in the sea of thieves community, I see you on Reddit all the time, and am always happy to hear what you have to say
6:21 Basically that old Six Flag's commercial with the old man dancing
Exactly.
Another banging vid lad.
Though I can't agree, cheers lad.
Me and my brother in our sloop being paranoid and watching a far away sloop who was approaching thieves haven, only for it to get instantly fucking folded by a ghost galleon just sitting in the middle which slowly emerged from inside the island to consume its prey will always be the most terrifying and cinematically cool moment in sea of thieves ever. This was back in like 2018 or so, and the ‘Athena 10’ ships as we called them were THE thing to fear
A noob reaper 3 brigatine hard anchored and vollied our defensless fishing sloop to pieces while we were fishing at mermaids hideaway.
After pistol/snipe two tapping the crew comming after us on the island and complaining about us being " f-ing sweat lords."
we politly told them that if they knew better they would have left the fishing boat alone and now, theyre going to get sweated on.
10min later we dumbster them with default supplies in our sloop and then went back to fishing while collecting their salty reaper tears about fishingboats.
Moral of the story: experienced players would have checked. Noobs, learn the hard way.
2:30 idk about the stereotypes but the kraken ship sets look amazing, all three of them. Totally overlooked and underappreciated
I just recently picked up this game, and I’ve been looking up tons of stuff about it to get good.
One of the first things I did when I got the money was get the Hunter stuff, since I think it looks really cool and fits my irl vibe.
I also mostly solo sloop.
…
…I think I am about to become a monster…
You did the same thing I did.. Looked up a bunch of stuff about the game early on. Smart move, I respect that
5:57
Good thing I’m not such stereotype, I got his set cause I was a massive fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and got to meet Depp while I was in the hospital for cancer…
4:47 Alright let me add something to that I mostly smile when im on PC and if your on PC expect little 7 year olds who are new to the game and will also beg you not to sink them I experienced most players of the xbox ship set to beg you not to take there loot or be toxic over the mic.
Definitely worth the wait. Great video as always!
I disagree but thanks.
Finally.. after all this time..
Banger video as usual, additional stereotype: Full DA ship/clothing set is a pretty good sign that the opponent will be mediocre at fighting but will whip out every slur they can when you prove it to them in combat. Those also have some of reaper in them, meaning when their shit gets on fire or they have quite literally anything to lose they'll make a run for it
never go above 480p
Merchant - literally me. Every goddam word
I like it
“Violence is the question and the answer is yes”
-Bacxaber
I didn't come up with it, but I do agree with it.
Yes.
4:57 so he’s basically saying:Fuck you because you won’t/can’t buy a 2000$pc
Gaming PC: $1000
Modern console: $700
Not an excuse. Stop holding gaming back.
0:30
"Sometimes reasonable men must do unreasonable things."
Yes
E?
*E*
@@Bacxaber good
The Olympic sprinters that happen to be reapers give us a bad name and I happily hunt them down for hours
Good stuff.
I waited 69 years for this, and I am not disappointed. Great Video
Bacxaber: *Says a bunch of stuff about the Cutthroat set*
Me: Dude, I just like Killer Instinct.
One I'd like to add. Triumphant Sea Dog ship set. This set is mainly used by TDMers who step out into adventure once every major update. They're good at pirate vs pirate combat but bad at everything else. Also if they manage to kill you once, they will bucket you like there is no tommorow.
I use the full Castaway Bilge Rat set lmao, and the full clothes set except for the shirt because funny bare chested pirate, I guess I'm just a sea hobo at heart.
If I was to make a stereotype for myself and my mates playing Sea of Thieves, here's what I reckon it would be.
"If you see this guy, you can be absolutely sure he already sees you and he's thinking about how to react. These ships are usually sloops or brigs, and they're always paranoid about being attacked out of nowhere, and so they always have someone standing guard. If they're a Gold Hoarder or Order emissary, they'll probably run away from you on sight, but if they're a Reaper emissary, they'll charge you on sight and probably try and keg you. It doesn't usually work out very well for them, but you can be damn sure they'll try again if they see you again."
Hey dude pirate legend here. Cool video tho as a legend I'm happy to do alliances and help players as long as they don't board with out permission.Thats just a sailirs law even to this day I'm the experienced captain of my crew
“Get yourself kegg’d”
Best part imo
I feel called out with the cultured aristocratic set
I am the slayer of ocean crawlers! Captain Crab forever!
Lol
Nice video amigo
As a Gold Hoarder fanboy, i feel attacked and fairly represented
As a Devils roar guy the reason I go there is because like 80% of the time theres noone there meaning i can grind in peace.
I used to think the reaper stereotype was exaggerated until I got ddosed by a running reaper galleon while solo slooping
Me and my homies tend to go all black, shark hunter ship livery, pure black sails, turn all
light sources off and become one with the murky void of the ocean…
We also Viking burial at the end of every session!
Always open to Alliance! If you see CharredRose666 on your travels, it’s me and i hope we have MANY travels together!
the gold hoarder one felt like you were just talking about me.
It's a good day when Bacxaber uploads
Man these are incredible. I dont know why now all of a sudden youtube decided I needed to see these but I'm glad it happened.
Also, my theory on "Running Reapers" is that its the people like me that are terrible at PvP but need to raise reaper to level it up lol. We cant actually fight, we just want to get it leveled up and be done with it lmao. Then I hit resume and that's exactly what you said haha.
Barely sny comments about how funny the mercenary description
I thought it was pretty funny. But everyone just keeps going "bad joke, betty white died" as if she wasn't a 99 year old when I wrote the joke.
