well that is a circumvention in my book
but yes, you can say i just ignore it

[cedar gazelle]

the enemy spawn rate in the lvl 15 zones are so overtuned lmao

[graceful crow]

Minecraft was the first maybe?

[compact quail]

best weapon in the game. fight me

[strong token]

damn my condolences

[graceful crow]

I think it was alongside procedurally generated worlds

[tardy bramble]

so if you have a full set, is there any reason to change the 5th piece other than for drip?

[simple pollen]

It’s a legitimate and fitting word.

[raven dagger]

I first heard it on valheim 5 years ago, was probably around before that 🤷

[honest jolt]

When are we going to unlock the Ashland part of the dlc in windrose next?

[fathom hull]

cuz i have my full set but im using the green bad pants still lmao

[somber osprey]

Minecraft

[thin dragon]

What I dont know Is what I am missing here

[graceful crow]

It might be a while since its the final biome. I wouldnt count on it for a few updates.

[tardy bramble]

cuz they say they have the same defense

[wispy spruce]

No, talking about how to easily circumvent cargo space. The way to do that is to keep a bell in your cargo at all times and just teleport home whenever you need to drop stuff off. You're the one who said that sailing back was time consuming, which is silly when you can pull over basically anywhere

[compact quail]

since geography was invented by jesus
along with electric guitar solos

[somber osprey]

Sulfur it looks like

[deep rampart]

biome(n.)

"large, natural community of plants and animals," 1916, formed from Greek bios "life" (from PIE root *gwei- "to live") + -ome, an Anglicization of Greek -(o)ma, neuter noun suffix (see -oma). Probably coined by U.S. ecologist Frederic E. Clements.

[honest jolt]

How do I upgrade one of my work benches to level 2? I tried using the sawhorse but it didn't work

[compact quail]

fart rock

[simple pollen]

I’d also like to point out how imperative it is to upgrade your armor and weapons. It does make that big of a difference.

[lusty meteor]

you build the sawhorse in the same bondfire range

[thin dragon]

hmmm around rocky formations, i have not seen it then or missed

[hybrid adder]

Them blackbeard waters are no joke, sank 4 ships before i had to run from 5 others

yo uneed the Toolbox

[compact quail]

what

[gusty oar]

What do i put in this altar stone thing?

[honest jolt]

Why do I need the toolbox

[cedar gazelle]

follow the quest

[raven dagger]

Ok champ 👍

[compact quail]

u dont. the toolbox is lvl 3

[drowsy sonnet]

anyone have a level 1 Thousand cuts rapier that they would be willing to trade for a weapon they are looking for?

[strong token]

It's on the Iron foothills, it can spawn in big rocks and smaller rocks around the foothills biome

[simple pollen]

The ship density is absurd at times. Threading a needle most of the time to avoid a 5-10m obligation

[honest jolt]

So what do i need then

[jaunty maple]

Hello. I created a dedicated server but I am having issues logging into it. Anyone know much about Nitrado servers?

[compact quail]

i give up the fight against the trash rapier. people don't know what's good

[strong token]

My bad G I misunderstood your question

[green coral]

Where can I find iron mines? Or are they not in the EA yet?

[drowsy sonnet]

what do you think is the BIS weapon

[simple pollen]

Name checks out. You can’t do more at this point (and I’m still going to use it haha)

[wispy spruce]

Foothills

[compact quail]

duelist great sword or plague weapons for melee
cutlass for hybrid
some musked or dragon breath for ranged

[drowsy sonnet]

You have to do the first main boss, and then explore the foothills

[sinful dagger]

guys

[cedar gazelle]

follow the main quest

[thin dragon]

yes I just searched for a pic, seems easy to miss

[green coral]

OK, so no gunpowder crafting til then?

[sinful dagger]

how do i join like servers with random people? or that's not possible?

[cinder marlin]

What is the max level in game ?

[green coral]

I admit I'm trying to make doing that easier. I'm terrible at ship to ship combat, and keep getting wrecked in ship battles. Trying to do what I can while avoiding doing those, since I inevitably lose. Was looking into maybe doing the Bucanneers quest for gunpowder, but need better tools.

[raven dagger]

By the time your in foothills you get too much, I leave it on the ground now

[simple pollen]

Honestly I haven’t crafted a single gunpowder. The rate they drop from mobs in foothills gave me an entire storage container full

[cedar gazelle]

get a ketch, upgrade ship parts to max, don't sail through zones you can't handle

[drowsy sonnet]

Anyone got the soul eater? I literally just need to pick it up and will give you 3000 piastre

[compact quail]

kill hands and you get it

[drowsy sonnet]

100% drop?

[simple pollen]

Yep

[green coral]

obviously (or should have been) not doing that. I've been even avoiding fighting the ships 'on my level' since I have no idea what my ship level is. But usually when I enter combat, its 3 to 1, and I lose or have to run.

[solid tinsel]

And don't forget Rum / grog , it may be expensive , but the damage reduction drum saved me ship many time.

[drowsy sonnet]

Do you have all the ship components built? Guns, Hull, and Boarding Crew?

[green coral]

The wandering has been another thing. Again, avoiding or running from ships to unlock Tortuga and one Smugglers location, but otherwise keeping off the water entirely.

[tidal aspen]

was mining some iron and turned around and seen this lad perfectly still watching me

[simple pollen]

It’s more approachable than you think. You will lose 8/10 times if you’re not upgrading your equipment. And they simply don’t miss unless they catch a wave instead of your ship.

[silk zealot]

10 kts is slower than my dead grandma

[green coral]

I do. All but my boarding gear is level 5. Which is why I'm searching for iron now.

[cedar gazelle]

again, gotta upgrade your ship parts, upgrade your hull and your cannons and your ship

[honest jolt]

Can you show me a screenshot of how to do this and what it looks like?

[drowsy sonnet]

before you launch the server you can tweak the difficulty. Might be worth it

[cedar gazelle]

in the range of your bonfire, surely you know what the bonfire is

[simple pollen]

Sometimes I pass through higher level waters by hopping on my sail boat and afking for 10mins 😂

[fast dome]

https://tenor.com/view/bloodcartier-gif-25860033

[median leaf]

Still, a pirate game where doesn’t have even sharks on the ocean? And plus, windrose already have mythical stuff, there’s no point on not adding sea mythical stuff.

[honest jolt]

Yes I know what a bonfire is

[upper garden]

I noticed there are front and back flagpoles on the ships, are these used with any of the flag designs or will these be used in the future/just there for pretty looks

[simple pollen]

It’s in early access brotha. The game isn’t released in full yet. Let em cook

[compact quail]

what would sharks add
you are never in the waters to have sharks be a gameplay element
it will just add annoyment if people sometimes swim from shore to ship
and noone wants add annoyment to that

[median leaf]

I know friend I’m just responding the other guy who doesn’t know balls about why he’s talking

[chrome timber]

But it’s overused. It just becomes a generic thing.

[green coral]

Nah. I feel like its a 'me' thing, not a 'tweak the game thing. Trying to control the boatsd makes my hands hurt and I feel like I'm just missing something when it comes to handling the cannons and their pacing. It's also kind of frustrating that the enemy seems to have a 99% accuracy when firing while I hit maybe 70% of the time, but again, that could just be me needing to do something with the controls. Making everything super easy wouldn't teach me anything... and I usually lose interest in games that are too easy.

[simple pollen]

I see. MB ❤️

[median leaf]

Pirates hunt sharks and whales for money bruh

[chrome timber]

Wow insults, how original.

[fleet chasm]

Uh oh do we have beef

[simple pollen]

Maggie Mae robbed whalers and drunken sailors… so this checks out

[tidal aspen]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-swayze-dalton-roadhouse-be-nice-gif-18234539

[median leaf]

I mean, it’s a pirate thematic brother, you will see those typo of stuff, isn’t forbidden just bcs other games already used, they didn’t invented the thematic.

[pearl bolt]

no pirates rob ships for money actually, thats what pirating is.

[cedar gazelle]

yeah but it's still overused

[compact quail]

people now don't hunt sharks for food because sharks don't taste well
"b-b-b-but shark fin soup"
made illegal in like most countries and is only eaten by countries that eat the weirdest things for sport

[median leaf]

Approaching ships is overused aswell.

[tidal aspen]

lovely cat

[cedar gazelle]

lmao ok bro, nice logic

[south current]

tell me this game is not beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fleet chasm]

Shoot me if you like but I think krakens would be sick as hell

[median leaf]

It’s illegal nowadays brother, not in piracy age.

[slow lily]

I think Cpt Matthas was trying to simply illustrate that a pirate game can be successful without adding in a ton of fiction and still remain relevant, however like I originally stated, they already introduced magic and enchanting tables, there's undead all over the place, so that ship has kinda already sailed 😄

[kind cairn]

This game is not beautiful! 😠
(kidding)

[fast finch]

Regarding the second region, spoilers: || Is it possible to have Truffle scale with your level?? It would be a shame to have the swine just be only level 9. ||

[compact quail]

the point of people not eating sharks stands

[obtuse nimbus]

lvl 15 is the lvl cap ??

[median leaf]

Yes, the game needs those type of stuff, it’s a PVE focused pirate game.

[novel torrent]

kraken as a endgame boss be dope

[green coral]

There are no sharks because theres no swimming, really. If you go in the water, all you can do is paddle to the nearest not in the water location. You would drown trying to fight one as it is. And if you tried to fight.... well everything is stamina, remember? You would drown. For them to add sea creatures, they would have to make it so you could swim for more than a minute or two without beginning to drown. The water is dangerous enough with things trying to eat you. Don't think so? Go out in the water and just swim. Yu won't make it 50 feet before you drown.

[fast finch]

I agree, and sea serpents and stuff like that.

[obtuse nimbus]

and last boss is the priestess???

[novel torrent]

currently

[fast dome]

Just kicki'n it at base and you look out to see your ship getting pulled under... I would be dying laughing.

[fleet chasm]

It's alright bud everyone here has finished the game

[pliant tusk]

there are sea monsters, play the game

[compact quail]

all i say LORNE is, yes, I do want sharks. If the game gets the ocean as an actual gameplay element where you actively go to for things or ressources. i want sharks to be enemies and a kraken to be a boss. or a sea serpent
i don't want sharks as is the game now cause why 🤷🏻‍♂️

[pine depot]

You and me both buddy

[regal ice]

Not...Quite.

[robust seal]

wanna see true unstable structure?

[fleet chasm]

I was being ironic. I mean to say mind the spoilers

[compact quail]

please don't leak your relationship status online 😏

[quick parrot]

do i really have to board this ship alone? Cant get my crew to help??

[obtuse nimbus]

hopefully next patch ,,lvl cap increase and new quest XD

[green coral]

And this is for people with INLAND bases. Bases built on the edge of the water would also be vulnerable to kraken attacks.

[signal depot]

boarding boat bug? crew going to front of boat\

[strong token]

yeh

[pearl bolt]

the distinction is clear, fishermen sell sea catch and sell it, pirates rob ships and sell it. but i do agree, if they ever add swimming then they need aquatic life, although whether the servers could handle the strain is entirely a different issue.

[robust seal]

Is this good ? I ve been using rapier for now, but imeguessing rapier is only to apply bleed and then change to other weapon right ?

[slow lily]

In Florida, you can legally harvest and eat 15 specific species of shark from state waters, provided they meet strict size and bag limit

[median leaf]

I’m just saying that being used before isn’t a reason to not doing it again in windrose.. this will just make the game better in the thematic, same way as approaching ships is being done.

[unreal sinew]

Craft boarding party gear and they board with you

[quick parrot]

normally i can board with crew. not for this ship cus it says i gotta search it for quest

[compact quail]

in florida
yes, we figured

[clever hull]

i hope a feature comes where you could create your own sails (custom colors and symbols from a list and such) i would love that so much

[unreal sinew]

Oh yeah they just watch you on those ones 😂

[green coral]

how the heck diid you manage that? xD

lvl 15 and ascended its one of the best

in the uk its even illegal to take pebbles from some of the beaches, its ok for the sewage companies to dump our waste there though.

in Florida, we have stories of people carrying crocodile around and throwing them at people, so... xD

Why not have an Henry Every style heist for something legendary? Or find a lost city?

[rough ferry]

Yup, plus the 100 million goats and wolves are not fun

[pearl bolt]

maybe theyll add a legit drydock

[tidal aspen]

the oof noises in my head for turning 5000 silver into gold coins was something

Ironically, a single level 8 goat killed 2 alpha wolves

ufff that looks op, but scaling strength+ precision idk

i'm not even sure wth kind of problem needs this as a solution XD

[median leaf]

I’m playing for quite a while now and never saw one in the ocean.

mess with the goat you get the horns

[rough ferry]

Legit, they are like insane and EVERYWHERE

[novel torrent]

its good for boarding as its AOE

[tidal aspen]

but was worth it

[rough ferry]

I just want corn man, that's it, so I can unlock farming and the grindstone

[pearl bolt]

its not the fact i cant kill em, its the fact you can get anywhere without 'having' to kill them

[green coral]

I just want sea battles to feel less overwhelming...

[pearl bolt]

constantly killing them and only moving a few feet at a time gets very tedius

[rough ferry]

Bingo ^. The amount of ammo I already wasted was insane. I died once from one of the alpha wolves jumping my fence that was apparently too short

[halcyon scarab]

Sneaky ninja run and you can make it without a single hit

[pearl bolt]

its actually the only thing ive found any fault with, the constant mobs, other than that its great.

[halcyon scarab]

If you struggling ¡I can help! ( for some rum of course)

[rough ferry]

My next concern becomes whether or not they can actually damage my stuff

[woeful warren]

Do we expect anymore updates in weeks to come?

[halcyon scarab]

i did those platforms when i was in swamps at lvl 11 , advance or die

[fast finch]

I am wondering if we will beable to liberate Tortuga. :3

[woeful warren]

thats what i figured

[tidal aspen]

when boredom sets in

[woeful warren]

game is kind of standing still for me a bit now after 50 hours

[pearl bolt]

ive found a solution to the sea battles, i just went tank take repair kits and take my time with the aiming and firing.

2 handed sword or saber guys ?

i mean people play ark for 100's of hours and all you got there is building and pets. only difference is the mmo side. or grief fest as i like to call it.

[novel torrent]

depends on build

[visual pendant]

is it me or are the available colors for a blackbeard frigate only purple or dark green ?

[strong token]

I mean everything points towards it, Blackbeard tried to kill us, he used the artifacts to attack Tortuga, we are trying to gather all the artifacts || to get rid of the curse||, ofc we're most likely going to have a showdown with Blackbeard himself || just before we manage to do the ritual|| so I would be surprised if after having that showdown and presumably winning we wouldnt have freed Tortuga in the process

[hot plover]

Not just you. I've been looking for better colours too

they need the flying dutchman and the kraken in this game

Those didn't exist back then.

[hot plover]

Powderkegs maybe?

Ubisoft is dumb.

[tidal aspen]

The 3-shot one is not as good as u think

[novel torrent]

do u just want the fishing ring?

[regal ice]

Also that idea wasn't a -fantasy- idea it was a -modern naval battle- idea, meaning the whole idea of depth charges and such would be drastically out of place as modern naval combat weaponry

any suggestions channel by any chance ?

what are the triggers for quests to finding each faction's main base? specifically people of tortuga

chain it with cutlass for hilarious numbers

I got one yesterday. Would youi like to hold mine to unlock the blueprint?

All I want to do is sail north and these blackbeard ships keep aggoring me and comitting sudoku.

What kind of Hull Bracing should I try for early on?

[novel torrent]

underground network quest line

[river gust]

push the yellow icons, and pick up the blue quests as they open up... you will be told to head to tortuga eventually

[halcyon scarab]

Alright , so maybe they can post some surveys ! would be amazing ( and not full for discord)

[pearl bolt]

or just sail around and look for islands with lights.

Its in the game, but the chests are now rng for loot table

[pearl bolt]

its not that, its the reverse controls that stitch me up

[acoustic dragon]

and i can still get it in the starter islands?

[regal ice]

Whjy..why are your controls reversed?

[hot plover]

No. It could literally be in any one of the numerous islands.

[pearl bolt]

cos i play with inverted y

[green coral]

I do that, but there's the matter of steering. I'm not good with all this wrestling with the ship while being shot at and having to aim and not crash into people bull.

[regal ice]

Oh...so it's your own fault, got it xD

[cunning adder]

Halfway there

[proud meadow]

evening everyone

[green coral]

and being outnumbered in EVERY SINGLE FIGHT.

[void hollow]

I only got two weapons after rescuing all the sailors and getting my first ship underway. The RNG in this game is terrible at times.

[pearl bolt]

yeh cos i wired my own brain at birth

[tidal aspen]

👀

[hot plover]

Maple flavoured moose f--er land

[regal ice]

I mean you didn't, and that sucks. But you can always change from inverted controls.

[acoustic dragon]

damn it i want the thousands cuts rapier i like to play bleed

[green coral]

I'm from a long island somewhere.

[trim moat]

This is one Im building

[torn lark]

You ever hear of the series Ozark?

[pearl bolt]

no i cant, because my brain cant do it, thats why i invert.

Is someone experiencing low res image bcs of TAA and upscaling? Is there a way to turn it off ?

[torn lark]

It's a semi-inverted basin of a mountain range that comes with banjos

[olive ermine]

Boarding with 20 enemies lvl 10 with this atrocious combat is exasterbated by the fact each dodge locks you in a random object, getting stuck and one shotted off screen cus the camera is too close..people will defend this trash combat

[old depot]

From the Spanish shores of California

[hot plover]

Congratulations! Now don't be like me and build two whole chests of gunpowder

[old depot]

Maybe not Spain when they colonized California

[green coral]

can you not craft nails? regular nails? where can you get them besides shipwrecks? ...please tell me its not boarding fights...

[hot plover]

You can with copper once you can smelt that

[old depot]

yes you can

[rough ferry]

Ugh, now I ALSO need to find fertile soil...just shoot me

[pearl bolt]

u can craft them

[regal ice]

Well, good luck.

[green coral]

How? Where?

[old depot]

yes you already tried in the 18th century

[green coral]

Is there a new workstation I need to craft to make nails?

[lyric halo]

Yo! Friends of mine have been playing this game and I got my hands on it. It looks wonderful so far im very excited what this game has to offer

[pearl bolt]

good luck with what? im 60 soon, i think ive learnt to cope by now.

[median leaf]

Only me I guess ?? I’m using ultra settings for resolution, DLAA and native but the image still looks a little low/blur as I move (I already turned motion blur off)

[old depot]

no

[rough ferry]

Do you find fertile soil in a chest or something?

[regal ice]

That's good.

[pearl bolt]

u can find nails in wreckage on shores

[old depot]

lots of nails

[green coral]

sorry. found it. getting annoyed with myself a bit here. Thanks.

[faint parcel]

Is The Swamp just one landmass?

[surreal sierra]

no its like the archipelago

[south orchid]

Greetings E/everyone!
I dont know if this is the right place, al tho i think this is a pretty game/storybreaking item;

I landed on the island and met Galen later on. He told me what happened (something that the cartoon also showed): I was shot trough the heart and after i touched the artifact some blue darkins thingy went trough my vains and i wast dead.
So i may assume the glowing that he mentiones, and that i see happens at night only. right?

Now here comes the thing that i noticed;

When you start the storyline, you start inside the ship. It is dark, but hey whats that?..... i see the glowing vains.
Wait... wasnt that supposed to happen ** AFTER ** i touched the artifact? And at that point i just broke out and talked to the doctor who was sitting there.
I have not seen the artifact yet, let alone touch it. I did not even see the cartoon yet,.... who explained to me that i became what i am after i picked it up.

Maybe this is something that should be looked into because it makes no sense at all 🙂
It kind of blows away the nicely made cartoon intro and also galens story....

ty for your time ❤️
Please, keep up the good work

Dominus

[faint parcel]

Thanks. I found one large island and there doesn't seem to be any others. I'll look harder.

[solar bobcat]

this thing is gorg

[surreal sierra]

Probably just an oversight andf easier than adding the glowing appearance seperate to the non glowing

[rough ferry]

Yeah, cause ya'll are gonna have that appearance for like 10 seconds before you get the glow

[chrome timber]

Swamps yay… still not looking forward to it.

[pearl bolt]

i love the ships, but you could take someones eye out with that bowsprit sailor

[tidal aspen]

final ship boss in the questline probably

[rough ferry]

Its Early Access and some things aren't going to make perfect logical sense either

[chrome timber]

We need a spyglass… seriously though what does a captain have to do to get a spyglass?

[tidal aspen]

guarded by warships with treasure icons holy sht never seen them with treasure icons

[heady sail]

guys where do i get the last ones ? I beleive it's a flower, but idk its name in english, i need it to offer to the statue

[strong token]

XD I love the sword fish, I really wish we could Ascend it

[pine depot]

Beans, you have the seeds go plant them. Oh and Bromeliad. red plant in the swamp

[pearl bolt]

i think the whole point is the mystery of it all tbh.

[strong token]

||Corrupted areas in the Swamp Biome it's red looks like Reeds ||

[heady sail]

alrdy done :c

[surreal sierra]

just about to doi that quest too

[rancid sierra]

It is a red flower with green stem and leaves, found in the pink plague areas.

[wanton raptor]

best weapon type?

[surreal sierra]

personal preference

[old depot]

Makeup or not. I think the makeup makes me look younger

[heady sail]

thank u guys, love y'all

[rough ferry]

Well yeah. Them creating this whole lore and backstory for it to be wiped away is kind of the entire point. Its now you dying and effectively being revived as a different person. The beginning gives you a taste of what you can become, not what you have to be

[tall smelt]

any server LAN?

[pine depot]

Hmm yes.

[pearl bolt]

and people love a good puzzle in a story, like trying to work out whats coming etc. i think it works for windrose tbh

[rough ferry]

Yup

[rough ferry]

Something that Black Flag didn't really give you any choice with. You are Edward Kenway. There's no deviation from him or his story and no way of you becoming anything else

[old depot]

I prefer makeup myself

[tribal basin]

Do u see a copy of walheim?

[soft token]

Side note (not related to any convos happening here rn): why are people so damn stupid?

[sinful panther]

wow this last week has disappeared I've played 100 hours of windrose now. thanks devs for a wonderful time and I'm excited for more content!

[heady sail]

are they hard to find ? i ran a lot in swamps, never seen one

[compact quail]

do you live in a society?

[pine depot]

i seem to find them most where plague meets swamp water

[calm cloud]

I have only seen it once.

[fast dome]

Rapier of a Thousand Cuts is by far the best weapon just ask @compact quail

[glad hawk]

i got around black beards flames and found the back of the town xD

[languid plover]

Where do i need to go to get assistance with Nitrado?

[old depot]

look at you being all unhelpful again

[green wigeon]

hello chat‼️

[hot plover]

#1495518685719433246

[heady sail]

it's a pain xd

[old depot]

Has anyone tried the game without clothes?

[compact quail]

maybe get the reference.

[rancid sierra]

They're usually on the outskirts of the plague area, on top of little hills in packs of two to five. I haven't seen them close to trees or bushes, they're usually off by their selves like in the picture. Like a five meter bubble around them of no plants.
I can get something like 20 or 30 of them per island.

[glad hawk]

did anny one els get into black beards base yet?

[old depot]

Imagine thinking I didn't get the reference

[pine depot]

yeah

https://tenor.com/view/insane-clown-posse-whoop-whoop-icp-violent-j-woop-woop-gif-7226001100121492503

asking someone if they live in a society whilst deliberately being anti social with them. oh the irony cogs are turning

[heady sail]

thanks ! will look out

[glad hawk]

is it worth to go in? or should i back out and get the wayoint first xD

[fast dome]

ICP!!!

[gilded drum]

Hello i have a little problem, i am supposed to save someone in a ship, i found the ship and killed everyone in there and then went back to my ship and it sank, but the mission isn't finished . . . was the dude i was supposed to find inside the ship ? is he now dead ?

[pine depot]

There isn't really anything to see there besides what you've already seen by going there

[compact quail]

i am not responsible for you making up a scenario in your head and getting mad about it. sorry

[pearl bolt]

yeh, but i cant show u cos my cameras turned off

[rancid sierra]

Yes, the guy would be in the bottom of the boat. And you sunk him. You monster.
The ship should respawn in 2 hours.

[sinful panther]

give it a few in game days and the ship will respawn you were supposed to go below board and talk to him

[old depot]

ICP didn't exist then. The clownface had totally different significance then

[hot plover]

Dr Galen looks so done with you

[old depot]

Dude is CREEPING on me

[gilded drum]

I boarded it and then when i won there was a mass of defeated pirates in the stairs and no mission change so i just left like an idiot xD

[stone igloo]

must have forgotten to restock on coffee

[slow lily]

https://youtu.be/DqZAYp1Dc1g

[sinful panther]

or mixed the medicinal herbs with pineapple juice

[green wigeon]

yes i got cold and the neighbors kept staring and pointing

[peak ravine]

theres mods for this?

[old depot]

CLOSE THE WINDOWS. two birds with one stone

[strong token]

nexus mods has a bunch

[civic aurora]

The narrow ship decks are incredibly annoying to fight on.

[pearl bolt]

or at least the curtains

[peak ravine]

siiick

[old depot]

it doesn't solve the cold problem

[earnest heron]

which quest triggers the location for people of tortuga's main base?

[pearl bolt]

no but its polite

[compact quail]

if you get cornered, jump off the ship and reposition
helps a lot

[green wigeon]

if you get low health, go to own ship -> use bandage -> use firearm -> go back

[compact quail]

I die like a man

[old depot]

or just have healing potion on main

[olive ermine]

@compact quail the combat is too static and janky. Getting stuck on ship geometry while you get teo shotted from behind is pure trash. Character feels like i got no armor or hp. Chugging pots is the only way I survive

[old depot]

ooh I hadn't thought about using a firearm from my own ship

[pearl bolt]

i think the boarding is a nice break from the ship mobs tbh

[compact quail]

main issue with boarding i have is that all ships have spots where ai cant get you
and that enemies are not coming with you on your ship

[earnest heron]

try dodging and parrying

[olive ermine]

Yeah i dodge into some random bs out of 100 on a ships deck.

[earnest heron]

don't board with your crew, let them kill things for you

[compact quail]

well
getting stuck any dying yeah, can relate
but the combat isn't bad. don't rely on tanking hits if your setup isn't defensive and upgraded
if you board, most enemies focus on ur dudes
and as said, dodge and parry. dodge has a lot of i-frames

[tidal aspen]

favorite part of boarding fights

[compact quail]

now what needs an improvement is the awkward staircase fighting everytime you board.

[rancid sierra]

Dodge into a corner, where the cannons block your jumping or movement, then three of the sailors come up and JJK you, while the sargent is taking potshots at your dome. I can see why some people can get upset by that, yes.
I don't fight near the front of the boat because of that.

[compact quail]

don't dodge into the corner
you can direct your dodge

[eager sage]

This game really needs bombs. Chuck a bomb down the stairs.

[compact quail]

also idk if its me, but the sergeants barely hit with their shots
and sometimers give up actually shooting

[tidal aspen]

nuuu the pig got left behind when the ship started sinking

[olive ermine]

The whole deck combat is just atrocious. They were inspired by Black Flag but MC in Black Flag has unbound parkour. My Pirate in Windrose is a 300ton constuction engine with a heart of a 90 y.o man

[vale lynx]

i'm looking for a new fresh start

[eager sage]

Why enemy can throw bombs, but I can't? Pls fix

[hot plover]

Or if it's a Brig jump on the canopy thing on the back and just shoot the guys. Brigs are so easy to cheese with ranged as a result

[earnest heron]

https://tenor.com/view/madagscar-penguins-kaboom-gif-9833865

[olive ermine]

Its also unfun. If we gotta resort to cheesing iver actual combat something is wrong

[compact quail]

deck combat isn't the best. but you can actively make it better by not just clicking button but actively know where to position

[hot plover]

[earnest heron]

or maybe it's intended to be able to literally use your gun

[green wigeon]

u mean grenades?

[queen dew]

i jump off the boat all the time when i get surrounded. or i just jump on top of the anchor wheel and watch the AI try to figure out how to get up there with me. Brigs are a lot of fun as you can just stand on the captains quater roof.

[candid cedar]

anyone want to play im new

[tough quiver]

Please make bigger storage...

[compact quail]

if you get cornered once, u don't get anymore, cause u know where not to get cornered

[queen dew]

when you get soul eater you can just jump on top of something and wait for your crew to jump over too then use the AOE.

[vale lynx]

i'm looking for a hardcore to join

[timber shale]

to be fair, it would be fun to unlock bomb making after one is able to make their own gunpowder.

[compact quail]

just wait for crew in the first place problem solved.

[pearl bolt]

the razor just slices everyone around me, i dont find the boarding combat as bad as the wolf and goat mobs tbh

[queen dew]

it would be more fun to watch enemy crews get ragdolled off the side and drown because you unlocked bomb making and started going full Richards with them.

[earnest heron]

i've gotten used to goats but wolves are horrid

[somber osprey]

What’s your problem with the goats

[glad hawk]

they are ram

[candid cedar]

anyone WANT TO PLAY

[acoustic dragon]

how to the hell do i get the iron ring?

[lime nest]

Can you tame animals?

[pearl bolt]

nanny ram? dont think so

[formal harbor]

hi all

[queen dew]

use a fence (no actual taming)

[pearl bolt]

https://tenor.com/view/grenades-top-war-soldier-throwing-bombs-river-game-gif-19386814

the what

[subtle dune]

I need some tech help: How do I make it so Windrose isn't using 100% of my CPU whenever I'm playing it?

[acoustic dragon]

iron ring for some quest

[compact quail]

are you talking about the iron rings that are in some ruins and you need to get down?

[pearl bolt]

honestly, i dont want to go down the giant pet crab route and loadsa tames everywhere. atlas was totally ruined by tames. oh and the submarines

[acoustic dragon]

yeah

[olive ermine]

July is Black Flag time. Cant wait for resynced.

[vale lynx]

i'm looking for a hard corever people to play with

[gloomy gorge]

Hello fam does this game got privet servers with PvP focus ?

[compact quail]

the ring is there. u need rope

[eager sage]

Change graphics settings one by one until you see what is causing the high CPU

[fast dome]

https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493029476970270740

[compact quail]

there is no pvp in windrose

[steep nova]

anyone know how to get the privateers doublet?

[olive ermine]

Assassin's Creed Black Flag? Its a better version of Windrose xD

[formal harbor]

go play it then

[olive ermine]

July when remake is out

[acoustic dragon]

i have to craft the rope?

[pearl bolt]

not on console it wasnt, the controls were awful

[somber osprey]

I wouldn’t call it better or worse. They’re incomparable atm. One is a fully released title with DLC and the other is in early access.

[olive ermine]

I played on PC but ill do remake on ps5

[hot plover]

Ahhh okay now I get why you're here.

[gloomy gorge]

Will they add pvp or only pve ?

[olive ermine]

I am here because i want to assist to make Windrose better than Black Flag

[pearl bolt]

black flag was great at sea, but its a stealth based game, and if u dont like sneaking around everywhere it gets tedious really fast

[hot plover]

Check pins there's something about PvP being a discussion after PvE early access is stabilized

[inner tapir]

how long does it take to get brethren of the coast to level 4

[compact quail]

what is the lore

[earnest heron]

depends how fast you can get insignias

[pearl bolt]

and some of the stealth missions were ludicrously difficult for me.

[slow lily]

?? why aren't you parrying and dodging either via movement keys or the left control, I mean you can face tank if you want, but I stay moving, time my swings, etc. I barely every have to use health pots.

[tidal aspen]

alright im done with every quest except the main quest which will soon lead me to fighting the swamp boss then im 100% other than maxing out weapons and armor i hadn't tried yet

[solid tinsel]

Perish the thought , blast pirate to pieces and before long , your faction level already at max.

[olive ermine]

Black flag had functional combat on ground. Naval battles are similar between these two. But Windrose needs to fix ground combat asap

[frank glen]

Guys, what the hell is this mission. this is unfair.

[wanton raptor]

IMO fast travel ruins the immersion

[hot plover]

Honestly yeah the 50 timber is like bruh

[solid tinsel]

Good thing it is optional

[vapid elbow]

I got 1200 timber in my chests

[olive ermine]

But the amount of ships spawning means in irder to get anywhere you need to fight ~20 ships. That is unreal

[pearl bolt]

yeh i know i played it, but honestly the stealth got monotonus for me.

[inner tapir]

so whats the avg a day or weeks

[somber osprey]

You’re meant to do it later, when your ship is upgraded and you have resource surplus. It’s a bit rough but I wouldn’t call it unfair.

[solid tinsel]

3 days for me , and i was doing something else too.

[olive ermine]

Black Flags worst moments were when it was Assassin's Creed.

[earnest heron]

i told you "as fast as you can get insignias". read

[somber osprey]

I can agree with that. I honestly think it was the first AC title I played where I went “is this assassin’s creed I’m playing?”

[solid tinsel]

This guy gonna in a for a rough time on the final phase of that quest line unless he over-preped

[tropic sandal]

are you just using squares? I don't have any triangle pieces and the ones I do are super small taking like 9 of them to make one the right size

[frank glen]

bro i could have a 1000 iron and its still a robbery

[inner tapir]

ask for the avg player what would be the time line without blazing though the game like it a speed run

[trim tusk]

When do i get to build my new ship? Ive only got a dingy now

[severe fiber]

when you get some patience

[pearl bolt]

i bought it release day, play about 4 hours a day and take it slowly and i havent done second boss yet

[tidal aspen]

least that mission easier than this collection

[somber osprey]

I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree tbh.

[buoyant rock]

is anyone elses dedicated servers lagging like crazy

[hot plover]

Oh man I gotta wonder how close I am to that. I was on a murder spree for them last night

[fleet chasm]

Tbh you can take as long as you want. Devs say the current game is about 70 hours of content iirc? I'm about 60 hours in though and I've not even beaten the second boss yet. I'm taking my sweet, sweet time

[eager sage]

Do Plague crocs count?

[soft lark]

Fr I want to punch Richard to death

[fast dome]

The islands in the swamps without POI make that very easy. Almost unlimited crocks to kill.

[fleet chasm]

What do you think is wrong with the combat? I'm not disagreeing, there are a few creases. But is there anything in particular?
Just curious

[fiery hornet]

what keys do i need?....

[hot plover]

I think a few people nolifed it in 60-70 hours.

I'm at 110hours and just at the last boss but running side missions

And I've also been doing experiments and such

[tender olive]

are blueprints always in static locations? where tf are the 45 degree clay tile roofs?

[plucky igloo]

Is the ANVIL even necessary?

[tender olive]

yes it's required for level up of the workbench

[fleet chasm]

I think the combat is pretty solid, it's just some of the quests/enemy spawns are kind of unreasonable and don't feel right with how combat works

[surreal sierra]

Am I tripping? I SWEAR there was somwhere I could buy Rum bottles

[eager sage]

Pretty sure Bretheren in Tortuga sell them

[timber shale]

Eh... not if you've beaten Hands. then you can just buy a lot of the lumber from the resource merchants.

[hot plover]

Fair point

[surreal sierra]

Naaaah they sell the non consumable ones

[pearl bolt]

honestly prefer the combat in windrose to black sails, i mean most of the missions were tagging, getting seen, restarting listening to convos etc. honestly the sea combat was great but tbh ac bs was a pretty average game for me. the graphics were great for their time though.

[plucky igloo]

How do you build a level three station?

[shut bone]

i am pretty sure they dont exist.
i might be wrong there, but i think i found everything and i dont have them

[olive ermine]

Certain weapons overpreform in crowd fights, and certain weapons are made for dueling. You cant spec both weapons. Combat is made for a 1v1 scenario, but the game throws tons of enemies at you. Its not balanced for single player. A groupd of 8 friends can steamroll same content where one person may struggle. Combat has to be more fluid, weapons should have more range, aoe and forward momentum. Blocking should cancel swing animations. Dodge should be a longer roll for less stamina. Armor has to provide defence values and food need to be less impacfull on players HP

[fast dome]

I thought so too but it seems to be drop only from pirates.

[fleet chasm]

I really ought to pick up BF at some point, I'm ashamed to say I've never played it

[next mulch]

anyone know when the next location drops?

[eager sage]

Dang. Then I guess you gotta farm pirate camps, like nuts only drop from them too

[echo escarp]

what do u even do with those? like whiskey and shi?

[surreal sierra]

craft repair kits

good ones

[fleet chasm]

That all tracks. I've not really played any games with similar combat to this before now so I chalked a lot of it up to skill issues, but it's nice to know that's not necessarily the case lmao. Couldn't quite put my finger on it

[eager sage]

Grog fer yer boys

[plucky igloo]

How do I upgrade my work suspense to level three? What do I need to build?

[shut bone]

build the additional things.
eg for a higehr level crafting table, the sawhorse is one level, a toolbox is another...
they dont need to be connected or anything, anywhere in the same bonfire will do

[hot plover]

What

[olive ermine]

I have played way too many games too tell you objectively that Windrose has atrocious ground combat

[pearl bolt]

one of the faction islands i think

[fiery hornet]

anyone know how to get in here using "keys"?...

[wanton raptor]

frigate has more gun slots than brig right

[rancid sierra]

No they do not, sadly.
I murderized two of them to check at like the 130 mark, and the counter didn't even go up one.
So you can skip them and just rock normal crocs for that.

[earnest heron]

follow quests...

[fleet chasm]

I shall take your word for that, then

[hot plover]

Keys are at pirate camps in other locations. Shoud be marked on the map via quest markers

[runic ether]

Yep, 2nd broadside too.

[timber shale]

you follow the quest for hand's keys. once you have them, you just interact with the door. As in, walk up to it and then press the interaction key.

[ancient charm]

took me 1 hour to kill a level 12 ship with my brig that has purple fully upgraded armor, and fully upgraded blue guns, and a naval book. (plus 3 other level 12 escorts).

took too long to kill this, brig should do better, but this hellfire alone was doing 50% damage to my hull with a good hit, erasing all 8 stacks i had, and also i was only taking off 10% of its health or less? this is despite drinking all 3 grogs. i had to hit this hellfire 20+ times.

[tender olive]

is there a roof tile from clay that's 45 degrees

[fast dome]

Don't think so

[compact quail]

with lvl 15 cannons and hull?

[shut bone]

its certainly not the best combat out there, but its good enough that i dont have any specific grievances.
it is generally responsive, some weapons truly feel unique and can change how you approach combat, and the talent system allows you to actually spezialize. its far from perfect, but its not as bad as you make it out to be.

[olive ermine]

Get raking cannons. Lvl 5 i destroy lvl 10 ships

[calm island]

my little solo base so far, pretty proud

[pearl bolt]

honestly ive been gaming since ping pong in 73, and ive known much worse combat than windrose, my only gripe tbh is the constant appearing mobs, but i guess thats so we get all the mats we need for everything.

[ancient charm]

fully upgraded before swamp, so level 10? purple hull. blue guns level 10 i think. naval book, 3 grogs.

[hot plover]

You were killing a Frigate with a brig. This timing makes sense and I'm impressed you managed this.

[compact quail]

why are you attacking a lvl 12 ship with lvl 10 stuff?
you get lower damage and take more damage

[ancient charm]

it took 15 moderate repairs, but yeah i did it with some maneuvering.

[fleet chasm]

I think this game is better suited to fewer tougher enemies than tons of weaker ones. The current combat system is best for 1, maybe 2 enemies and often falls apart with much more than that

[hot plover]

Also more importantly you were trying to kill a tier 3 ship with a tier 2 ship. Impressive as fuuu

[ancient charm]

ok ill check those out, thanks

[warm knot]

Real

[somber osprey]

This reminds me of when me and my friends took on a level 15 frigate with level 10-12 brigs. One of them was in a Blackbeard brig, took a broadside and sank instantly. 😂

[timber shale]

plus it's a frigate, meaning it has twice the firepower of a brig. I can understand that thing shredding his brig's hull bar quickly.

[tidal aspen]

That's a frigate boss ship that's why you had to take a while to kill it with your brig

[pearl bolt]

yeh, cause its a survival game you do need that space to actually survive in

[ancient charm]

okay thanks for putting it into perspective

[compact quail]

raked cannons are probably the weakest of the three currently

[calm island]

woah this is phenomenal, amazing work man

[fleet chasm]

Especially with that one quest on that drowned ship... I saw literally no other way than to cheese it by rushing down and getting ganked on the way back up lmao

[hot plover]

That's why you create those opportunities via kiting. Same thing that you have to do in Elden Ring and other souls games imo

[tidal aspen]

Boss ships are tougher than the average ship of its class as well least felt like it to me

[ancient charm]

oh yeah? im using the 40% damage when you hold for 6 seconds, 12 pounders

[olive ermine]

I disagree. Stat scaling is horrible. Passives are very weak too. It is not responcise at all. Even with 20 stamina cofeee i permanently feel like i have to way for enemy to play out his attack. There is no option to overwhelmed anyone. Thry get magical armor that stops staggering animation. The game tells me openly "no no no you are doing too much dmg here is your punishment" so enemy starts swining through an attack that staggered him 3 times 2s ago

[pearl bolt]

maybe if they start selling the mats at vendors, we wont need so many mob spawns

[ancient charm]

lol i didnt even use 24 pounders on the frigate so maybe thats more impressive?

[eager sage]

I use devastating cannons. They get 15% faster reload sped when ascended. Would recommend.

[olive ermine]

Friendly and enemy Ai is also very dumb

[fleet chasm]

That's what I have been doing and it's been mostly fine, but it's the handful of quests where you have an invisible line that the enemies despawn past and you need to basically restart if you cross it

[compact quail]

raked is infinitely inferior to that
you have to hit volleys AND you have to hit like 3-4 times with volleys in short windows. meaning you have to turn your ship around and hit with all 3 cannons for rake to....
.... still be weaker than tempered

[hot plover]

TLDR:
"I suck at this game and/or it's not my playstyle"

[timber shale]

well, there is the bigger weapons like the big swords or the halberts. i've always found the big swords an effective way to at least try to manage larger groups of enemies on some occations.

[tidal aspen]

enemy ai isn't that dumb unless you put them into situations where they weren't coded to react properly

[ancient charm]

in the fight i avoided the hellfire as much as possible, and fought his 3 escorts, which was doable. and killed them, then i focused the hellfire.

[olive ermine]

Glazer defending undercooked trash combat:

[minor lily]

anyone notice the lotr reference in the signal fire description

[hot plover]

[somber osprey]

I think friendly AI is beyond terrible when it comes to ship combat and the Blackbeard ships go for ramming way too often for ships w/o rams

[fleet chasm]

True, and those are better, but the way combat is made and the way quests are set up still feel like they're in disagreement to me

[compact quail]

want me to upload videos how i overwhelm every enemy in the game? with more or less everything you say being wrong?

[summer loom]

can i go get tar from swamps without killing boss?

[tidal aspen]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1349724792906846258/1496573935196831836/2026-04-22_13-10-00.mp4?ex=69ed0397&is=69ebb217&hm=fc1cf5123aae407f86f998f3835048ae17a0f7eff71ee918871260279eb7d360&

Sometimes the AI will surprise you

[hot plover]

Yes but you won't unlock recipes

Until you beat the second (foothills boss)

[olive ermine]

Do it on a 20 pirate camp and use a rapier. Send the video

[summer loom]

so no tarred wood or fabric?

[eager sage]

Fun fact, bullets can't be blocked or parried by enemies

[compact quail]

oh, u use the rapier. i understand everything

[formal harbor]

whats the best wepon to kill the first boss with

[timber shale]

some quests do feel like they open up access to one far too early than the power level one is ready for. Like if one rush through the Brethren questline, one will end up having to take on max level frigates before one is truly ready for them.

[fleet chasm]

I think the combat is mostly there, just a few things that need polishing, but the quests' enemy spawns need a revisit. Feels like enemy spam a lot of the time and that kind of sucks

[remote monolith]

i used the pistol

[summer loom]

https://tenor.com/view/rodea-rodea-the-sky-soldier-rodea-gun-gif-6338912029560649132

[pearl bolt]

no i disagree, the combat isnt polished but its not trash. it just needs refining. which looking how good the game is now, im sure it will be amazing in the future, at least its not just an old game revamped like black sails resync

[tidal aspen]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1349724792906846258/1497000128446337025/Failure.mp4?ex=69ed3f03&is=69ebed83&hm=c923a8b54979ec3fe91817a6e82027b5cb9eacef5f4fc82f6de67887c71d499c&

and sometimes AI just doesn't know how to react to a camper

[gritty ice]

so game works great on steam deck too, nice work. Now i have steam family share with 2 children and normally i can buy multiple copies of the game and they can share the games between them, but only one key be used at anytime. Windrose on Steam will not allow me to buy 2 copy's of this game on one account. Is this restricted by steam or developers?

[shut bone]

i found the "you did to much damage, so here is your punishment" to be a non-factor on my combat style.
since there are multpuple enemies, i susually get about 2-4 strikes in before stepping back anyways to reposition.
if you want to wail on enemies without any finesse, i dont know what to tell you.

yes, i sometimes feel i get staggered to easily.
but its like once every ~5 gameplay hours.
its fine

as for stat scaling and talents being horrible...
they arent as impactful as i would like them to be, but its minor.
like, if it was about 10 percent (not percentage points) more effect of both, i think it would hit that sweet spot.
because if its to strong, it forces you into hyper-specialization and effectively eliminates the more fun hybrid builds.

[vernal geode]

shotgun

[calm island]

which greatsword is that I see alot of people using

[formal harbor]

not have one lol

[olive ermine]

This is what i want. I want it to be ironed out. I want this game to suceeed. I am not hating. I am trying to get same-minded people to demand improvements

[hot plover]

There's many many people able to play this game and enjoying it.

I'm sorry you're having a bad time getting the mechanics. I'm sorry you're not having fun playing it.

But if there was an overwhelming amount of people in here complaining about it as fatalistically as you are... I'd believe it.

No, combat is not perfect, there's absolutely some improvements that need to happen and it's early access. But it's not as fatalistic as you're making it out to be.

[tidal aspen]

Soul Eater, pretty much the best greatsword there is

[calm island]

ohh the drop from the second boss right? didn't realise it was so good

[fleet chasm]

Seems fine for me. I think you can only have one copy of a game per steam account; are you buying the copies for each account or trying to get two on one?

[summer loom]

how to expand build range? upgrade bonfire?

[tidal aspen]

It has a aoe nuke that heals you and it scales on voth agility and vitality, it can do 3k+ dmg in aoe

[somber osprey]

I think one of the biggest problems you get unlocked every time you kill someone in a horde. Rather than tabbing to the next one it just unlocks you and can mess up your flow.

[pearl bolt]

windrose is already succeeding.

[fleet chasm]

I've made my gripes about the quests and enemy spawning known through the feedback form

[calm island]

oh jesus, since I ascended and upgraded the rapier of a thousand cuts everything has been pretty chill combat wise, swords insane

[compact quail]

"everyone who isn't bad at the game is a glazer, i am the only one who knows the truth"
this is you

[olive ermine]

This can be changed in a setting

[hot plover]

Build a second bonfire that doesn't overlap the first.

But also know theres alot of buildings that don't require a bonfire. Just sucks because you'll be out of range for the mats in chests.

[somber osprey]

Can it? I skipped over that setting ig

[minor lily]

how do i ascend my cannons and hull armor

[fleet chasm]

You both have points here. Silchas is coming off a little blunt about it, but they are speaking quite a bit of truth. The combat is very nearly there, in my opinion, but there absolutely are improvements to be made

[compact quail]

my man, i be honest with you
and others can vouch for it.
i learned you can lock on after like 5o hrs in the game
i never locked onto enemies because it feels weird to me

[hot plover]

Low-key I'm gonna buy a glazed donut when I'm out of the hospital after this comment xD

This hospital USED to have a Tim Hortons in it but.. alas no more.

[calm island]

is the name because of how strong the weapon is by any chance

[eager sage]

It definitely trivializes a lot of the game because of the auto healing and extra damage over time. You can take on enemies much higher level than you with ease.

[olive ermine]

So you are telling me, after i have finished hardest games in existence, and easier, that its my fault Windrose "isnt for me" after gaming for 30 years a single early access game defeated me? I am not bad at the game. Game is bad at the game

[solid tinsel]

There is lock on ? I must have missed it during tutorial and i feel it is much easier to dodge without lock on.

[fleet chasm]

The game really could do a better job of explaining some keybinds a little more lmao

[somber osprey]

I’m the opposite tbh, I think the unlock feels janky and weird to aim with.

[kind hedge]

New Lighthouse for the Manor. We made it round.

[hot plover]

I still don't lock on to enemies cause it feels weird too. I only use it in boss fights.

I also don't really need to being a musket user lmao

[vernal geode]

i mean as long as they fix target system and let u interrupt attacks im fine with a combat.

[compact quail]

"i use rapier vs. a camp of 20 people"
you are bad at the game
this is not an opinion

[timber shale]

Plus, some people are able to build different ways to do combat, it's why there's already so many different weapons and "armor" bonuses in the game. It's fun to find even some weapons that can boosts each other's combat mechanics, like the double pistol that can weaken an enemy to sword strikes.

[olive ermine]

Rapier is the only melee weapon that scales with precision and i do not have infinite bullets

[pulsar phoenix]

can we dance? our characters would be cool

[gritty iron]

anyone willing to let me hop in thier world and drop me the rapier? i cant find one anywhere lol

[crystal sage]

True

[timber shale]

yeah... The Targeting i feel could use some work. it's a bit annoying on my end when i end up having my target zip around to different enemies, just because i moved my mouse too much.

especially if one is doing boarding on a Frigate...

[compact quail]

god. you are actively playing a build with probably the worst weapon.
no wonder you think combat is bad. i feel bad for you, seriously

[marble turtle]

I know it's way too late at this point but Crosswind was a much better name imo

[pearl bolt]

i dont use the lock on either, but it does mean that sometimes youre attacking air

[solid tinsel]

When you swing the great sword you bound to hit someone anyways

[ancient charm]

im using bleeding rapier too- the build only comes together level 10+

[fleet chasm]

Crosswind does sound very PvP-ey which isn't the direction they ended up going but yeah I'm not overly keen on the new name

[regal ice]

Belongs to a band, can't be used. let it go.

[olive ermine]

Why is rapier a thing then? Or you are telling me to just reskill to two hander cus there exists a weapon that is trash to what the game is about? Do you hear yourself? How badly you defend these bad designs

[hot plover]

Honestly yeah I kinda liked crosswind as a name better too lmao. But I get needing to change it to distance from the "MMO" days

[fleet chasm]

WindRose is also the name of a band, btw

[compact quail]

no, stop using the rapier because other swords synergize much better with sword + pistol
cutlass and plague pistol or drakes is such a good combo and has damage for miles

[lost furnace]

How long does it take for trees to regrow? i've been leaving the stumps hoping that accelerates things, or does that change nothing?

[civic niche]

Its from a quest man, just keep looking.

[regal ice]

No, that's Wind Rose, not Windrose.

[ancient charm]

i saw the slash sword with pistol, but i was like nah, i prefer pokey aesthetic of combat

[eager sage]

Let's be real. Everyone uses rapier because it uses same stat as pistol. If pistol switched to agility, I'd be using a saber.

[fleet chasm]

r/windrose is about the band -- still close enough to be confusing iyam

[solid tinsel]

normal tree does not regrow , only from seed , divi tree respawn however.

[lost furnace]

ahh

[olive ermine]

Ah pistol scaled with precision. What should i replace my rapier with?

[high idol]

No thats the band Wind Rose
Not to be confused with the game Windrose

[compact quail]

then use devastation rapier. it atleast does lots of damage

[regal ice]

But the important part is the current name is not trademarked, reserved, and fits the nautical theme.

[lost furnace]

Does leaving the stump speed up the respawn on Divi Divi?

[pearl bolt]

maybe youll enjoy the fishing more, if baiting is your thing eh

[compact quail]

who cares. the damage increase is negligible
cutlass gives nearly double damage while the points in precision of so give like what? a few hundred?

[fleet chasm]

Fair enough. I'm just not overly keen on it. The game has no wind mechanic, nor are there roses

[solid tinsel]

No idea, i just chop them all down for extra hardwood and the tree will respawn.

[timber shale]

to be fair, rapier is good if one want to go more for a hit and run tactic.

[calm island]

Really excited to see what pirate like outfits are added later in the game, don't like the armour too much but its too good

[compact quail]

let me record a video

[gritty iron]

im already in the second area and did the quest where you digunder the tree and didnt get it, i dont think its guaranteed 😢

[spark idol]

Anyone seeing a lot of lag from SurvialSurvers... I have them hosting my basic Dedicated server but it is hard to play a game that needs timing with it being jittery sometimes.

[regal ice]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_rose

[compact quail]

sorry i personally consider that tactic to be the worst you can do in the game

[fleet chasm]

That's "wind rose", not windrose

[chilly wraith]

VERY laggy when in higher tier areas, almost unplayable

[regal ice]

Yeah I'm not doing this dude.

[solid tinsel]

I used rapier earlier but now switch to great sword , fun weapon and you can either go full tank or full damage talent , plus it can parry , for 2-handed weapon.

[timber shale]

it can depend on the enemies at times. true.

[fleet chasm]

I hope you know I'm not trying to start an argument here. I jest. I really don't care about the name that much

[regal ice]

Pedantic arguments are worthless.

[ornate pecan]

the game feels like its not built for solo players atp

[olive ermine]

If stats scaled dmg better rapier would be totally usable against groups. This is fact. I do have single AOE slash move

[fleet chasm]

I agree, and I wasn't trying to start one. Lighten up bud

[rose oar]

Guys I’m leveling up what’s the best way to get xp early game ,feels tedious

[pearl bolt]

i used rapier through demo, but when i got the ea and found the razor im stuck on it now

[high idol]

why do you say that

[hot plover]

Doesn't matter

#💬│windrose-chat message

[lusty meteor]

just put enemy hp and damage to half or 20% if normal is too hard?

[glass osprey]

more songs on boat

[fleet chasm]

Quests and exploration are the only ways to get XP at present

[olive ermine]

It isn't. That is what i also said.

[spark idol]

have you tried one of their faster server deals? I am curious if that makes a difference and also curious at who needs to resolve this...

[lost furnace]

Thank you

[timber shale]

do quests, complete points of interests. that's about it.

[chilly wraith]

yes

[bold jungle]

Could you please tell me what this structure is at the construction site? I can’t find it anymore.

[spark idol]

So you tried a faster server and did it make things better?

[rapid ridge]

I am really wondering why is everyone complaining about the combat, I am a solo player and never had that much issues with combat, I almost beated every boss on first try except the last one which i didn't reach yet

[chilly wraith]

yes, we are 3 players playing i bought the "premium option" from start

[somber osprey]

I'm very curious, what makes it feel weird? The only weirdness I felt with it is not auto retargeting & crocodiles.

[ornate pecan]

thats good for you

[honest jolt]

When do you guys think we will get achievements for windrose guys?

[fleet chasm]

Not everyone has your skill or patience

[somber osprey]

Wow that retargeting setting was right infront of me. 🙂 Why am I blind

[hot plover]

It limits my range of motion when moving around is my biggest issue.

[swift vault]

Is windrose online? Do you play in a world with other players like sea of theives or is it like valheim where you can make a world and others can join you, or join others.

[spark idol]

From the start? so the premium doesn't make it better?

[olive ermine]

Auto-target is the only thing that keeps my guy from missing hits. Freecam on rapier is but.tcheeks

[eager sage]

Locking on crocs is an auto headshot too.

[fleet chasm]

It's single player with the option for online co-op, just like Valheim

[solid tinsel]

Offline adventure but have co-op option.

[regal robin]

Are windrose servers having a stroke right now we've been fight all evening to get on?

[hot plover]

It's like Valheim. Where you can do solo or coop

[chilly wraith]

its still laggy with premium. also when looking at the cpu/ram usage on the dashboard they are at 50-60% but still laggy when in swamps and sailing is also very laggy

[crystal sage]

Someone on steam tried using that as a negative

[covert apex]

Pirate

[spark idol]

Thanks for the info

[tiny ermine]

what do I have to do to unlock flax farming?

[pearl bolt]

i personally think windrose is a great game, well worth what i paid and i cant wait for the future updates. bravo devs BRAVO

[fleet chasm]

I like MMO/online games as much as the next guy but they don't all have to be that way, man. Sounds like they just went in expecting another SoT

[hot plover]

Find flax seed and fertile soil at farm pois

[chilly wraith]

seems to be a game issue not host issue

[kind hedge]

sounds like a yall issue we have had no issues and had people in and out our server all day

[tiny ermine]

fertile soil? where do I find that? I have the seeds

[rapid ridge]

I am not really that good but once you learn the moves of the enemies you can just predict their next hit and it would be easy to either dodge or parry

[spark idol]

yeah, it is early access and they probably have not focused on optimization

[fleet chasm]

I agree, but again, not everyone finds it quite so easy

[olive ermine]

Enemy getting magicall anti-stagger after 3 hits is just plain stupid

[timber shale]

in farm ruins that are only found in the second region, after you beat the first boss.

[tropic sandal]

gonna be in the doors section

[regal robin]

Server literally keeps going offline then online we even restarted it amd it keeps going offline

[tiny ermine]

got it thanks

[hot plover]

Farm POIs(points of interest) on the foothills zone. They will appear as marks with wheat stalks on the map when you go near them

[marble turtle]

I've found the combat to be fine. Not easy but doable with leveling and practice. The system itself is good for this kind of game but not exactly revolutionary or anything. Though, it definitely feels early access as it isn't super snappy/responsive at times. I suspect that this will get better with time though.

Also I've been using the rapier and it's been fun. I want to use piratey weapons in my pirate game

[kind hedge]

id recommend turning it off checking for a update to your server.

[pearl bolt]

why dont u produce youre own game? its totally possible in this day and age

[regal robin]

It force updated about 30 minutes ago

[olive ermine]

Ah, the "go make ur own game" defence. Lmao

[bold jungle]

Thank you, I found it.

[eager sage]

If they're blocking, shoot them

[kind hedge]

turn it off and verify files then

[regal robin]

We will thank you for the advice

[pearl bolt]

no, im being serious, it is totally possible to do.

[rapid ridge]

I mean if the enemies would just get stunned during the whole combo you do there would be no point of dodging or parrying but yet you can still cancel the enemy attacks by attacking them at the right time

[olive ermine]

They arent blocking. First three hits you stagger them. Then they start attacking thought your attacks.

[fleet chasm]

Gonna be honest, you need to be skilled in like a million different areas to make a game on your own. It's seriously not easy

[solid tinsel]

If i want to keep mindlessly wailing on enemy without them hitting me back i would play dysnaty warrior.

[rapid ridge]

Yeah ig

[marble turtle]

I actively don't agree with your issue but damn the people arguing with you have the worst rhetoric

[pearl bolt]

not true, my sons doing programming and game design, theyve made games for projects that were pretty damn good tbh

[compact quail]

you are using a weapon with the weakest stagger designed for keeping the enemy close to you

[solid tinsel]

Try 2 handed sword , you can keep staggering enemy as long as you time your hit.

[tropic sandal]

anyone else just feel likle we're missing alot of building pieces.. maybe they are supposed to come later.. maybe not

[worthy schooner]

hello I am new is there a community server I can join so I can play with other players? It says I need invite code ? But isnt there one where I can just pick from randomly?

[olive ermine]

But i do actively stagger them. Does two hander stsgfer longer? Or they get the same super armor?

[mystic jackal]

Wish they unlocked quicker for sure

[fleet chasm]

I hate witnessing arguments where both parties make good points but there's miscommunication out the wazoo

[kind hedge]

New Lighthouse looks alot better.

[fast dome]

https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493029476970270740

[tropic sandal]

well even when you have them unlocked you'll find yourself still feeling like you don't have complete sets

[compact quail]

noone non-boss in this game has armor except armoured drowneds. and these are designed to never stagger
bosses don't stagger, too.

[green coral]

Things you'd like to see in the game? I'll start with one: being able to pick plant fiber with your hands. You can pick food plants barehanded, but you need a sword or axe to get random weeds?

[fleet chasm]

true.jpg

[tropic sandal]

use the shovel

[fleet chasm]

You can rip a whole banana tree out of the ground with your bare hands but you can't yank some weeds? Hmm

[green coral]

imagine needing a shovel to pluck a leaf off a tree.

[hot plover]

Yeah absolutely

[chrome timber]

You can when you plant them yourself ironically.

[tropic sandal]

I"m not disagreeing with you, just saying use a shovel

[chilly wraith]

looks like a peepee

[compact quail]

excuse me? speak for yourself!

[green coral]

yeah, I know. xD But I use my two handed sword. Here's a fun tip too: its also good for collecting wood from those very thin Ficus trees.

[fleet chasm]

Use a bandage good lord

[olive ermine]

Bosses not staggering is fine. They are supposed to be a challenge. But not endless swarm of no name thugs. I watched single Goat leader solo entire enemy camp. I end up drawing wolves to them due to how unfun the ground combat is. I endlessly enjoy naval battles tho. Its pure dopamine

[chrome timber]

One thing I’d like to see is the ability to place flags that we get for our ships in our bases.

[timber shale]

i mean, i feel there's a reason why each of the weapons are tied to different stats. precision for firearms and rapier, haste for cutlass and broadswords, and "crude/strength" for clubs and halberts. I'd imagine each weapon would then work differently from each others.

[pearl bolt]

skull and bones was a £70 game and cost millions to make by one of the worlds biggest game companies, it now has less players than windrose and it lost a fortune,

[hot plover]

It's because we're Frithin' tired of his agrressively pessimistic fatalistic negativity so we're a bit spicy. I literally only engaged with it earlier cause I'm stuck somewhere with nothing else to do xD

[kind hedge]

looks like your under 18. Makes perfect sense why you see that over a lighthouse.

[hot plover]

the DOME my dude. The DOME AT THE TOP. It's amazing!

[pearl bolt]

and now ubi is making a revamp of an old game out of desperation.

[rapid ridge]

I think he meant to just have a collect button like press E and just collect them with your hands not punch them to collect

[chrome timber]

I laugh at the fact that this game is out performing Skull and Bones and it’s not even finished. 😅

[solid tinsel]

I don't trust them make a good re-make either , given the current Ubi.

[high idol]

how do i turn off the notifications on the right hand side

[olive ermine]

But how the stats "work" you dont have enough to dual specc. If you roll precision you gotta do rapier/muskets. Its the most effective. And then rapier is trash for swarm of enemies game trhows at me

[hot plover]

My biggest want right now is customizable signs. Let me write on the sign

[fleet chasm]

They're trying to capitalise on the pirate genre when, for them, that ship has sailed (hehe)

[green coral]

Second thing. INLAND waypoints we can teleport to. Why you makin' me walk to all the mines, bro? xD ...and before anyone says, yes I know the bell is meant to be you travelling across the water without all the actual sailing. THIS IS MY POINT.

[high idol]

i know thats what is making me hold off on pre ordering it
Already got burned bad with SnB

[compact quail]

i understood that and made a joke

[pearl bolt]

yeh, they missed the boat on that one

[olive ermine]

No modular hanging bridges. No ladders. This is priority. With combat overhaul

[jovial ore]

do they have like an actual roadmap anywhere for the game? I'm wondering when actual content will arrive to parts of the game

[earnest heron]

soon™

[fleet chasm]

Not yet, I think they're still collecting feedback and such so they know what to work on first

[hot plover]

One important thing to note about that game is Ubisoft wanted that game to not release but some French employment laws required it to be released I heard.

(Something about it being too far in development for them to fire people so they begrudgingly finished it)

[rapid ridge]

Oh mb 🤣

[green coral]

you could say they got caught tryin' to grab the booty, lol

[timber shale]

well, there is a reason some foods can give stats buffs, plus there's also the jewelry. Also, have you tried using the blunderbuss to try an knock some of the enemies back?

[hot plover]

Yeah I'll agree with ladders. Hanging bridges 50/50 on whether I care but I get it.

[compact quail]

wrong video

[chrome timber]

Oh that too. I don’t like how I can’t have a separate sign for processed items.

[pearl bolt]

i believe it had something to do with a contract they gave to a singapore company

[green coral]

yeah, that boss jungle weed battle was a tough one.

[hot plover]

Oh , maybe I'm confusing the country but yeah

[compact quail]

reee

[tight canyon]

i hope we get to sail to Puerto Rico and Cuba

[chrome timber]

Oh yeah the Singapore government was involved with the development hell I’m pretty sure they gave them a lot of money to do it.

[pearl bolt]

after they sacked the uk company that actually built the best parts of the game, but if u like pirate ships covered in pink flowers......

[civic aurora]

I would like it if we could color the pins we can place on the map. Instead of everything being gold.

[green niche]

So Skull & Bones was taking "generous subsidies" by the Singapore government in order for the game to get made, but stayed in a perpetual development hell and Ubi were going to get hit hard due to not actually releasing anything while still taking their money.

[jovial ore]

Ahh ok. I hope they go back to add content before jumping into a new biome. Lots to fill in tbh.

I really hope they don't just go stagnant for a year after doing minor tweaks before dropping a 1.0 OFFICIAL release drop. Games are dying quick with this practice. It would be wise of the Devs to dabble here and there with content. Throw some sharks in the water one patch, add some aggressive monkies in another patch. Toss out a new weapon type maybe (God please be daggers) for another.

[olive ermine]

I use musket to trim enemy bumbers before they reach me generaly. But still fitghtin 2-4 guys out of wich some shoot at me with rapier isnt fun. 1v1 any enemy is fine as it is. I got full control.

[green coral]

Yes.

[somber osprey]

Daggers or proper axes rather than halberds

[green niche]

They can be purple if you toggle on the "visible outside minimap" option, but yeah, would be nice to have a custom color option.

[fleet chasm]

I totally agree, but with how polished the game feels already, I have high hopes. They seem to be pretty open-minded so it's looking good, iyam

[sage night]

A vicious animal must be contained

[summer loom]

do hardwood trees have seed drops or nah

[jovial ore]

both honestly. Why not all the weapons for different play styles? A wooden bow for basic arrows much much less damage than the guns

[pearl bolt]

i honestly think they will need at least a few mmo servers to survive eventually.

[compact quail]

if you mean smth else, happy to test

show of hands, btw. who wants there to be more ship cosmetic stuff that's themed around the other factions? like orange or green hull and sails based on the Buccaneers and Smuggler factions. Like, take the flags that we can currently buy from them, and add on also sails and hull colors.

[civic aurora]

Right now, I've got like, 20 food icons on the map, but they are all named different stuff like... Cayenne Pepper, Banana, Potato. Have to spend forever trying to find which one I'm looking for lol.

[fleet chasm]

You can never go wrong with more cozzies

[chrome timber]

I honestly would love to be able to expand my campfires range. I’m trying to make a town… and I’m running out of space.

[somber osprey]

They're probably going to be added. Their initial design was function over form. They say as much in the faq

[pearl bolt]

cant u just use one icon for a region?

[jovial ore]

I haven't even gotten to other biomes yet, are there any like... bosses beyond people? like, Cthulu or such?

[fleet chasm]

TRUE

[olive ermine]

Whale hunting. Giant krakens. More modular cannon loadouts. More ship types. Ship tier scaling (make lower ships viable vs higher lvl enemies instead of forcing ship tier upgrades) better ground combat. Underwater chtulhu type pois. Bigger dungeons. Less enemies for singleplayers. More weapon types. Better stat and talent scaling.

[grand sandal]

Move the campfire to each area. build and then move again. picking up the bonfire doesn't break the decorations. you just have to move the resources around to build freely

[wispy spruce]

I want this, plus a transmog system for our player costumes too. Hell, throw in a faction costume at rank 4 too. I want the smugglers' green bandana

[somber osprey]

Yes

[carmine nimbus]

We need this shanty in game plz n thx!

life hack
can add more bonfires
a dirty mind is a dirty kind

[tidal aspen]

I can understand why ppl would do this to their map, but uh... do u really need to do that for anything not in swamps? ^^

[chrome timber]

Having a campion would be nice too… hire a first mate or someone from the players past? Since the game is also technically an RPG that be nice. Hell what’s the story for our characters?

[olive ermine]

Id pay for cosmetic dls. No thoughts

[tardy bramble]

HEH BOOBS

[jovial ore]

Make Loot actually... FUN. There is nothing fun about taking down a ship or traveling to find a POI, just to get a revive potion and a tier 1 Greatsword....

[boreal helm]

ohoj m8

[frank dawn]

would be nice to have ship system from ATLAS game like building shipyard to start building ship part by part each part of ship need to fixing not like HP of entire ship

[civic aurora]

You mean... You want me to travel to a different island each time I want to get one specific item instead of allowing us to color the pins red, brown, yellow, blue, etc etc so I can quickly find what I'm looking for?

[olive ermine]

Loot is fun if you consider certain weapons are op. We just need more weapons and effect variety

[tame brook]

So give you epic loot every time and just cover you in epic loot, so that looting isn't fun. It's just a gift fest?

[somber osprey]

Agreed, my big loot hype moments were always plans or new items

[timber shale]

or... cosmetic armor/clothing colors that are themed around the factions. So: Buccaneer Orange, Smuggler Green, Tortuga Blue, Brethren Red and Blackbeard Purple.

[tidal aspen]

idk how they can make loot fun. If you had a diablo-like item system, it might be what u looking for but that kind of thing probably woudln't work here

[frank dawn]

im suprised like this game is so hyped with all basic gameplay to be honest.

[jovial ore]

Noooo, not like that lol. More so making loot hunting actually interesting. I feel a little defeated visiting islands just for... nothing.

[pearl bolt]

yeh i thought id be able to change icon colour, i was surprised they didnt add that tbh

[chrome timber]

I just think it needs to be increased. I feel like I’m getting very little when I attack ships.

[olive ermine]

Agree. Arpg loot would not be good. We just need more of everything that exists. More weapons and more varied weapon effects

[hot plover]

I haven't seen any

[cinder canyon]

Every Weapon, Jewelry, and clothing item maxed... I Escaped Windrose

[compact quail]

what can i tell you, we have taste , mr. atlas

[olive ermine]

Im here fighting for that ground combat overhaul xD

[tidal aspen]

Well there's only 1 weapon with an elemental attack on it nothing else has other than plague-like damage, but it's a start (and that element being fire damage)

[somber osprey]

It's a very good building system-missing a few pieces but good nonetheless. Pretty decent combat all things considered. Boss fights felt good for me, I was always on my toes and had to learn their moves. Ship combat feels fairly good. There's a lot of room for improvement but it's EA, and a lot of people have wanted a game like this.

[jovial ore]

The one direction I hope the Devs DON'T go is Cosmetic Priority. Like, take that nonsense to Sea of Thieves. Actual Chat Box with cutesy costumes over true adventurous gameplay and reward. I want to see bosses drop epic weapons or cool armor, dungeons that are thrilling, dog fights on the water that lead to something. I'm sick of games prioritizing the monetization of cosmetics over true grit

[fleet chasm]

You don't like it, cool. Why are you here?
Close it, get a refund, move on lmao

[civic aurora]

I think the game is grindy enough without forcing me to have one island for bananas, one for potatoes, one for cayenne peppers, one for rocks, one for sulfur, etc etc. I'd rather they add the option for us to color the pins.

[olive ermine]

Sot only has cosmetics. No power gain. Trashiest game around and a disgrace to a pirate theme

[pearl bolt]

yeh cos look at sonic the hedgehog with all its deep story, weapons, attack modes, customisation etc. no wonder no ones heard of it

[jovial ore]

literally a glorified Chat Box

[solid tinsel]

Every loot is useful later on even if it is not weapon or plan , i ran out of silver and gold...

[timber shale]

there was that one weapon (i beleive it was a rifle) i remember from the old Ashland trailer, that had lifesteal on it

[carmine nimbus]

I have so much food and other resources that I don't need to mark anything on any island unless I want to temporarily mark it for navigation.

[jovial ore]

Keep fighting them pirates matey

[tidal aspen]

there's a pistol with lifesteal in a sense on it right now

[olive ermine]

I was immensely hyped for Sea of Thieves, being starved of good pirate game since sid Meyers pirates and then Black Flag... Very underused theme... And then SoT came out and it was just babys first streamer game for dirty casuals... I cried there was no progress and missions- horrendous endless fetch quests...

[jovial ore]

A legendary weapon system with Davy Jones Sword and such would be cool!

[timber shale]

you sure you're not talking about the great sword?

[indigo cave]

what is that legendary item on your hotbar

[rocky charm]

How's the infantry musket? I'm intrigued by its bayonet.

[fleet chasm]

To be fair I think most people agree that the PvE is very mundane (I like that, but I see why others find it boring) and that the enjoyment for most people, or at least, the intended enjoyment is in the PvP encounters

[indigo cave]

its called plague pistol, shots heal u for 40% of damage, u unlock it in last biome

[cinder canyon]

Let's you summon a ||Boar ||

[jovial ore]

I think I got turned off when a 10 year old and his friends blew up my ship like my first day and started calling me the N word.... Then I looked into the game and it turns out A LOT of people cheat the game without devs doing anything really useful

[fair haven]

I honestly hate how you can't respwn on the ship, even with the frigate with captain quarters you can't set a spawn

[pearl bolt]

taylor swift will give up music once she finds out i dont like her records, her millions of fans will mean nothing, she'll only care about my opinion.

[fleet chasm]

Yeah no the moderation of that game is god-awful. They wouldn't do anything about someone in my party being sexually harassed because I wasn't actively recording proof at the time

[kind hedge]

well for naval boarding that would be stupid..

[civic aurora]

Eventually you can grow your own food, which means I don't need the icons anymore, but when I first started, I marked down everything I found on each island. It was the same way when I moved to the next region for the first time.

[indigo cave]

where do u get that

[fair haven]

I can literally put a respawn point next to enemies and spawn non stop so what's the difference

[olive ermine]

Yes but PVP without ability to progress your character is endless loop for nothing. Fight just to fight and never earn anything of acual value? No thnx

[fleet chasm]

Best part is, something about how the game was put together meant that the Steam video capture refused to work. If it were, I'd have had proof.

[cinder canyon]

on my world i got it from an altar like this IIRC (not this specific one)

[jovial ore]

Isn't that game ran by like a big company too?

[fleet chasm]

I personally like games like that where I can collect cool stuff, but I totally get your point too. I'm weird like that

[indigo cave]

that's probably what is the final thing missing on my map

[tidal aspen]

I think everyone has the same islands just placed differently on the map with the unique loot placed different locations too

[cinder canyon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYWS3jLr40g here I haven't watched this but it looks like a indepth vid

[kind hedge]

its also NOT they job to moderate your server... its your personal server.. block kick and report them to discord itself the game devs / moderators thats not they job if it didnt happen here in the official discord and it happened in your discord server thats a discord issue... not they issue.. Learn the difference.

[fleet chasm]

Iirc Rare develops it, but Microsoft themselves, or at least Xbox Game Studios or some crap publish it. They say Microsoft has nothing to do with it but I do think they're breathing down Rare's necks

[carmine nimbus]

How would you feel if you got permabanned from a game because someone accused you of something you didn't do and they had no proof?

[hot plover]

It's a good ranged weapon for those who are using a non rapier sword because its attack is not based on precision like most.

[civic aurora]

I found the boar whistle here.

[stone iris]

We need repeatable quests.... Like cargo delivery quests that are repeatable.... v.v

[dusky coral]

How cool would it be if they added a mooring style docking you craft and place on a dock yourself. Call your ship and BAM shows up where you want it. You can also have one for the boat.

[jovial ore]

but the cool stuff was just outfits and the progress to get outfits was HORRIFIC. I joined this guy on a quest he was doing, he said he had to defeat this specific boss like 185 times before he had enough of the bosses specific pendant or wtf ever before getting his outfit. Holy shitaki I'll pass. The ONE boss fight I joined took 30 minutes.

[fleet chasm]

It wasn't my personal server? The only personal server in the game at the time was Safer Seas, and that's literally one ship.

[tidal aspen]

need a goat whistle and a crocodile whistle, those would be funni

[olive ermine]

NO NO WE DONT. Repeatable quests are a bane of gaming

[indigo cave]

i just beat high priestess in co-op on hardest difficulty, think im done with the game after 100 hrs - i'll get the whistle when i revisit the game

[pearl bolt]

sea of thieves had so many people ask for a 3rd person option for years, they still havent done it

[tidal aspen]

500% difficulty or the pre-set hard?

[fleet chasm]

They only somewhat recently let you change the FOV to above like, 90, right?

[kind hedge]

this game only has .. solo or co-op servers that you host.

[stone iris]

YES, YES WE DO.... Because once you do everything there is to do, there is nothing left... No reason to keep playing>.>

[indigo cave]

pre-set hard

[tidal aspen]

500% difficulty is much much harder than the pre-set hard difficulty so try the bosses with 500% setting

[fleet chasm]

I think there's a miscommunication. I'm talking about Sea of Thieves here

[tame brook]

Nothing wrong with repeatable quests. No one is forcing you to repeat it.

[jovial ore]

I think the only reason to have repeated quests is for accolades like "defeat this boss 3 times without being hit" or something idk. Not so much 185 times for a damn outfit

[olive ermine]

there absolutely is a reason to play, and a player that immerses themselves in this world doesnt need handholding quest to have fun. Working on a base is a WIP kind of thing

[indigo cave]

500% is too much when each attack one shots in his enraged mode, im not that much of a masochist

[tidal aspen]

i imagine only a tank build can survive a hit from bosses

[jovial ore]

Ehh, Minecraft has no quests at all but people still marvel in its glory

[rocky charm]

Yeah, thinking of rocking it with a greatsword perhaps?
Unless the bayonet is a good melee option.

[indigo cave]

his enraged mode one shots no matter what, so u just gotta go full dmg

[kind hedge]

and i still stand by what i said.. Imagine them banning people off word of mouth alone...

[civic aurora]

Repeatable quests aren't bad, it's how game developers abuse the repeatable quests and turns the game into a grind hell that's bad.

[rocky charm]

Sad the infantry musket can't parry tho.

[frank dawn]

overall i love the game dont take me wrong

[olive ermine]

id rather have a long, hand made quest chain over 5 repeatable garbage quests. Some people are grind bots irl it seems

[fleet chasm]

Lot of other games log voice chats for moderation purposes. It's unreasonable to expect everyone to be recording their screens at all times just in case someone rolls up on them and starts harassing them
