Whats hyper armour?

[compact quail]

never had that with the weapons i use minus obviously armoured drowned

[marble cobalt]

Anybody have a server to join?

[vernal basin]

its a "for honor" term* iirc if dudes just tank through attack uninterrupted

[rich haven]

Looks like somebody had to much rum! 🤣 🥰

[compact quail]

yeah never had that with my greatsword. i stagger all the time.

[smoky glacier]

we're playing a different game then. if you try go for a 3-4 hit combo on most weapons they will just hyper armor through it, unless you're on very low hp difficulty then ye they just die

[sly juniper]

🤣

[raven dagger]

Don't need them staggered to deal damage anyway 🤷 i like bleed but not following the logic

[compact quail]

i am not using the rapiers which have basically jack for staggering
least amount in the game

[sly juniper]

@lunar cedarAnd you throw off your house🤣

[smoky glacier]

I've been using two hand most game and they still hyper armor

[rich haven]

Yeah that stagger do be saving lives. 🥳

[compact quail]

must be a different game then. i know where to time attacks and stagger enemies and when not to and parry

[smoky glacier]

I mean it is what it is a lot of games use it but imo combat systems relying on hyper armor are lazy, but it is a early access indie game so its fair

[compact quail]

the game doesn't rely on it

[smoky glacier]

it really does

[tidal aspen]

5 stacks of bleed on a crocodile generally makes certain they die so u can focus on attacking another but yea whatever it still functionable at endgame especially on high HP foes as all u gotta do is refresh the bleed stack every now and then and switch to another weapon

[raven dagger]

Doesn't really matter there's no wrong answer in combat in this game, not really hard enough to matter, except maces, maces suck 😏

[old depot]

I just drowned building my dock. I fell in under the placed deck

[tidal aspen]

The plague warriors is another perfect enemy to bleed out since u spend lot of time waiting to counter them

[main flint]

I love people that lie and call every game "Too easy for anything to matter" they're the backbone of fake online discourse

[patent tundra]

wip thoughts/ ideas?

[raven dagger]

This hyper armour thing sounds like you need to execute combos on a enemy when you can animation cancel any attack with dodge, complaining about "hyper armour" seems the lazy part when its easy to counter 🤷

[vernal basin]

i just apply stacks in set windows and 1shot whats left once the stance breaks lmao

[compact quail]

played the entire game in ea currently with all 3 greatswords. there is 1 enemy that has armor and its by design and 1 that is a giant tree that doesn't stagger from normal hits aaaaaaand 1 enemy with a shield but still staggers often enough outside of bosses
anything else staggers from normal attacks often and ALWAYS from power attacks

[smoky glacier]

its just boring, the enemies should parry dodge block they should never need to hyper armor

[tidal aspen]

Plague crocodiles also don't stagger like normal either

[granite oxide]

#1493029476970270740 and #1493010069682520138

[compact quail]

care to show atleast a short clip of so called hyper armor on non armored drowner, thrall warriors or the abominations with a greatsword

[smoky glacier]

you're playing a different game buddy dw, all enemies in this game hyper armor

[thin elbow]

add in new duelist/fencer enemies that use rapiers and they perfect block you

[spare onyx]

What is hyper armor?

[fast dome]

What is this https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493010069682520138 you keep posting

[smoky glacier]

when you hit an enemy enough it prevents them from being staggered so they can hit you through your attack

[granite oxide]

Oh theres some enemies that will block the hell out of you 🙂

[subtle blade]

Feels good man

[glacial valley]

can anyone make me filbusters pants and chest?

[raven dagger]

Can't you buy them?

[rich haven]

aint nathing worse than wolves, they is the worst enemy for me so far. 😡

[tidal aspen]

a shame sniper focus requires aiming for too long

[granite oxide]

Servers players have promoted they have communities for - go to id:customize , then id:browse and you can check it on if you wish to see it.

[fast dome]

Not sure what you see but I see

[granite oxide]

you need to check it on to view it

[raven dagger]

They're just channels you havnt checked for roles

[compact quail]

it is really backwards to claim the game has a mechanic that makes enemies not stagger anymore after hits when:
the entire combat gimmick is to hit enemies to break their riposte and stagger them
the game even has weapons that have stagger as a perk. why would you make stagger as a perk when staggeting gets disabled

[rich haven]

I planted all this crops, but now I dont want to pick them. They look so pretty in me base. 🥰 😭

[wicked vigil]

Is there any way to delete items?

[tidal aspen]

kill these for me with ur SSJ damage

[silent fractal]

ooh I found a lagoon on an island!

[subtle blade]

I would be happy to

[compact quail]

you rattled them good.

[granite oxide]

Kinda like in some games where certain mobs are immune to certain types of damage or mitigation.

[tidal aspen]

actually was disappointed in the dragon breath blunder

[subtle blade]

That's not even my max damage BTW, I am not using Arborum Bullets in that shot

[vernal basin]

they do have a sort of immunity to it after 2 staggers (cant tell if heavies apply, i dont spam those).
the enemy needs to do something before you can stagger them twice again. for many fights it doesnt really matter as it flows

[compact quail]

the game has some. i mentioned them. the armored drowners have 0 stagger
the shield thralls most of the time and the plague crushers obviously

[granite oxide]

it is super strong with the right build. I was disappointed in the cost of it lol. I don't use blunderbuss anymore

[tidal aspen]

blunderbusses use double ammo and gunpowder. Only the "other" blunderbus use 1 gunpowder but it still uses 2 bullets so it not that great of a bonus

[smoky glacier]

its nothing to do with the enemies shields you break if an enemy starts an attack on you and you hit him he will stagger, if you hit an enemy 2-3 times and the enemy starts an attack and you hit him he will no longer stagger, if you've played this long and never realised that is wild

[compact quail]

i love heavy attacks, and they stagger a lot

[tidal aspen]

and bullets are much more annoying to get than gunpowder

[fast dome]

I have every category in browse channels checked thats why I was wondering why it shows locked for me.

[granite oxide]

Actually - you can break the armor shields they have with perfect parry and stun - The large crabs for example - for them they simply flip over when stunned instead of a stagger. Not all mobs work same way.

[pastel aspen]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ok so i understand the game is not finished but to get zero loot from killing that horrible swamp boss is ridiculous

[compact quail]

obviously if you miss the timing the attack will go through. that is not hyper armor, that's the player missing the window.
almost every game has it lmao

[vernal basin]

my heavies are just timed and hit when the enemy is "down" so to speak to apply stack as i can beforehand

[tame brook]

Hopefully they add some minor variations to attacks. Valheim was cool in that parrying was really strong, responsive and also allowed you to do a 2x attack so you could basically string together 2x,x1x,2x in a 3 hit combo.

[compact quail]

ye swab. i meant just flailing at the warrior shields. i know u can break the warriors riposte

[subtle blade]

Horrible swamp boss is right

[smoky glacier]

it is hyper armor, its the same attack I've done it many times, if you've hit them 2-3 times they will not be able to be staggered shortly after as they attack, many games do this with poorly made combat systems or you could literally just combo the enemy to death

[tidal aspen]

rapier of devastation is absolute monster for tank builds, you won't die

[subtle blade]

But as long as next major content update doesn't make me fight it AGAIN to get the loot, I am cool with it lol

[compact quail]

it's a skill issue, sorry
"i attack into enemy attack why isn't it staggered?"

[smoky glacier]

not very smart

[tidal aspen]

and the heal is multiplied by healing perks and armor set I think so it's like funni stuff

also you can bring those basic green health pots if you have both armor set and talent for healing bonus. It will heal u ... alot

[compact quail]

i know i am, thanks for noticing.

[vernal basin]

the damage it can do on a crit setup is borderline Disgusting xD

[stiff shell]

one time at band camp...

when do i unlock a bigger ship?

so blunderbuss is where its at. BLAOOW

[wicked urchin]

I cant find drakes pistol

[tidal aspen]

build tall platform, press V or whatever while in build mode standing on platform, mega base view achieved

[shy acorn]

so... how long into the game before we upgrade from our battle canoe?

[slow iron]

I'm sorry but did I really pay 30 gold coins for the Brethren of the coast hull color only to have 1 line of paint difference?
1st pic is default hull color, 2nd pic is from Brethren of the coast..

Come on Kraken Express.. this is a waste of my 30 gold honestly xD

[rich gazelle]

Anyone else sipping on rum playing this?

[compact quail]

Yes.

[analog aspen]

Probably within the first hour

[shy acorn]

im listening to "there once was a ship that put to sea... the name of the ship was the bully o tea

[tidal aspen]

lol changing 2 boards in color for gold goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[vernal basin]

hey. paints expensive aight!

[odd mango]

i didnt realize the game actually released, pls tell me they added dreadlocks

[rocky charm]

Am I weird for... just not really being a fan of the Wellerman shanty?

[rose sun]

It changes more than it shows in the thumbnail

[thin elbow]

yes

[compact quail]

is a good shanty. i hate the fanbase tho

[gusty sun]

Not even close to released. Just in early access

[rich gazelle]

Last night I got so drunk on there I had to let my friend man the helm

[slow iron]

I'll take a look..

[rocky charm]

Maybe it'll grow on me
Maybe associating it with tiktoks 'n stuff gave me a bad first impression.

[thin elbow]

I'm on the other guy's side now

[rich gazelle]

I had to sleep in the longboat last night

[slow iron]

I don't see any difference compared to the thumbnail

[shy acorn]

i love pirate games. played sid meyers pirates forever, only game that came close to scratching that itch was like... sailing era, and sea of thieves.

Do you like Bully in the Alley?

do the merchants ever sell stuff from the swamp?

[rocky charm]

Kinda growing on me, yeah.

[fickle merlin]

does it cost more to upgrade an ascended item, or unascended?

asking because I dont' know if it's cheaper to upgrade an item before ascending it

[rich gazelle]

Dude I was so drunk and singing all those shanties

[rocky charm]

Maybe if I heard the Windrose player crew singing the Wellerman I'd like it :^)

[rich gazelle]

I love "Whiskey for my Johnny"

This blackbeard ship got worst fcking driver

[steady meadow]

upgrading and ascension are two different ressources

So it doesnt consume more or less if blue,green or purple

[fickle merlin]

correct.

[rich haven]

I like my whiskey neat! 🥰

[verbal flame]

where can i sell all of these provisions? it says the People of Tortuga but no one in tortuga wants em

[shy acorn]

i gotta get in the habit of making tents. you guys ever sail to a far off island, then get oneshot by the first group of enemies?

[compact quail]

follow story. spoiler: they are not in tortuga

[willow flame]

Much like the other factions, they have a base on a small island. Look for Brethren of the Coast Waters.

[verbal flame]

That's crazy. Personally I would've put the People of Tortuga in Tortuga, but that's just me

[shy acorn]

woulda been cool if they did the whole carribean 1 for 1, then added random islands to give it some spice.

[granite oxide]

A lot of people skip the story, when the story tells you what happened to the factions 🙂

[compact quail]

that is just you because you skipped the entire story
it explains why people are not there
||the giant murderwall of hell may have smth to do with it||

[eager sage]

Bro... you gotta read the quests, dialogues and notes...

[shy acorn]

people can't read lol. us has like a 50% adult literacy rate.

[verbal flame]

Who cares? Make it more interesting. Make them be the last bastion of Tortuga instead of fleeing to a whole different island, lol.

[fast dome]

They don't even read the note telling them the treasure is buried under a dead tree with a red rag tied on it.

[compact quail]

bastion against what? a giant energy murderwall?

[verbal flame]

Think of the possibilities for the future. You can help them figure out the source of this deathwall and even clear it

[tidal aspen]

which they can do from their little island too lol

though u can ignore the other ship firing on me. Can't do much to a 200k HP ship

[severe fiber]

That was pretty funny

[rough ferry]

Is there nothing else we can do with these keys?

[amber seal]

Can anyone test my server trying to make sure it is set up correctly

[granite laurel]

could someone help me defeat the first area boss real quick?

[zenith geyser]

Anyone faced handsy hands Mchands yet? He seems impossible to kill.

[granite oxide]

you will get extra keys. If you in a server with someone and they haven't used the keys you can unlock some of the chest for them. They will get their own loot. Otherwise no further use.

[rich gazelle]

Im so hungry, id eat some hardtack right now

[tidal aspen]

some ppl disable in-game overlay for steam since it uses bit of resources or something, but yea taking screenshots with phone when ya got a print screen or steam screenshot feature is kinda whack

[rough ferry]

Glad I finally was able to get craftable gunpowder then. Need that trash can quite a bit cause we get a lot, and I mean a lot of stuff that we need to be able to throw away

[rich haven]

What does signal fire do? 🤨

[granite oxide]

He is pretty fun fight and not too hard. You have to learn his abilities and when to dash from him - Control + tap in a direction - dbl tap to be sure to get clear. Monitor your stamina - have food, potions and plenty of ammo for ranged. You can melee him after certain moves finish. He will completely dodge any shots fired from you in one phase as he approaches - the others phases you can shoot him.

[rough ferry]

I think pretty much just look pretty and is visible from really far away. It does also give comfort I think

[compact quail]

signals with fire
it is quite self explanatory
you see it from afar

[tidal aspen]

It as you expect, but remember lord of the rings return of the king. They used signal fires, you can see it from verrrry far off that's its purpose

[verbal flame]

put that in your base for a free +1 comfort

[tidal aspen]

https://tenor.com/view/lotr-gondor-call-fires-fire-gif-13706821

[granite oxide]

A lot of people like to use them for lighthouses 🙂

[rough ferry]

They used them in that for the purpose of relaying a message that Gondor needs help. You can only place 3 in the world of the game though

[subtle blade]

It only gets worse...

[pearl bolt]

honestly, a bit more flax in the game would be nice. 2 plants per island is rarer than tax office apology letters

[rich gazelle]

Im doing it

[compact quail]

parry his melee, dodge everything else

[rough ferry]

Which is exactly what I was gonna do, lol

[tidal aspen]

Careful signal fire won't add comfort if ya already got something from its same category already though

[rich haven]

Ok that makes sense. I thought it was like an instant teleport or something. 🤣

[zenith geyser]

Oh no lol/ I have the combat difficulty on hard and enemy health at 100% plus the multiplier with each player that joiins and the 3 of us are pulling our hair out right now.

[rough ferry]

Nah that's the fast travel bells

[steady meadow]

Developping a small farm will fix that whenever you find seeds

[verbal flame]

You can stack a bonfire with signal fire

[fossil zephyr]

Gotta get that farm going

[rich haven]

will do 🙂

[daring nymph]

is there a channel for like ideas ? or am i blind lol

[pearl bolt]

yeh i have, but its ssllloooowww going

[rough ferry]

I think you guys btw are going to have to expand the number of fast travel points available in the future...yes, in the more distant future when we get more biomes and whatnot. Its not really needed now as there's only 3 biomes we have access to

[fossil zephyr]

Technically there is a mod for it but use mods at your own peril

[rough ferry]

I don't really expect a mod that simple to entirely break the game, lol

[rocky charm]

I'm going to pose a question to anyone interested in some day encouraging players to crew each others' ships, I want to know what we think about it.
What if... a player firing a ship battery caused it to reload 25% faster? Perhaps 60%?

[granite oxide]

There are plenty of fast travel points - you get one for each boss, you get one for each faction plus 10 more to freely place - thats currently 18 fast travel points.

[verbal flame]

Where the fork is the last three coastal jungle pois

[rough ferry]

Oh so they expand each time. I didn't know this...there's quite a lot of unexplained mechanics in this...

[granite oxide]

Plus you can also fast travel in your ship to fast travel points from anywhere if out of combat, and can use the homeward potion to instantly teleport when inventory slap full for example

[rough ferry]

Maybe a compendium of stuff or index of some sort would be good in the future

[steady meadow]

I feel that, it was the same for me. But keeping searching for more seeds and plant and all and while doing other stuff they grow somewhat fast that way.

[fossil zephyr]

Looks like a whole island to be discovered. Time for an ADVENTURE

[verbal flame]

I've searched far and wide

[granite oxide]

There's over 50+ locations for you to unlock - from faction bases, to shipwrecks and Islands.

[sturdy remnant]

I think it’s random for each persons map I have noticed differences between locations from map to map

[fossil zephyr]

It's there somewhere. Hate to say this but it will be the last place to you look! (Check gray areas in between biomes)

[hot plover]

No, there's just some fixed fast travel points at bosses and other places. For example I build my base outside of tortuga so I use its fast travel point rather than one of my 10 self-placeable ones

[steady meadow]

it is random. All world have their randomized layout and orientation

[pearl bolt]

no th fast travel points dont expand as such, as a player u still only get 10 to place down. but factions and boss islands have a teleport already there.

[rough ferry]

Oh that I've found out already and this is the better explanation

[granite oxide]

Each map seed is indeed different. There are a few hand crafted islands that stay the same but are in different positions on a map seed, the rest are procedurally generated islands and in completely different locations.

[tidal aspen]

Just placed one, my comfort level didn't go up. It probably conflicts with a different fire source in my base but i don't have an y bonfires

[muted tree]

i lvoe windrose

[sturdy remnant]

I honestly love that so this way everyone can’t rush to the same spots it forces you to explore

[sturdy remnant]

I assume the ones that are the same are the main islands being tortuga and the other faction islands

[muted tree]

best pirate game since sid miers pirates

[rough ferry]

I was thinking of such thing just yesterday in that fact I could put a base or something somewhere next to one of the pre-existing fast travel points

[tidal aspen]

Cooking fire and the signal fire are both considered fire sources so signal fire won't give u anything if u already have a cooking fire apparently

[steady meadow]

Ye. Tho for characters that already done some zones and found faction bases, those unique chests and special fast travel are bound to your character. So if you go to a new map, you will have all those fast travel already unlocked.

[granite oxide]

Those and a couple special large islands, but the majority are procedural.

[rough ferry]

Not that I wanted to do that really as I found a small island that I settled on instead which I completely eliminated all enemy spawns with

[velvet spindle]

I did him with a greatsword, level 10. Fight felt way too easy. Just focus on heavy attacks to stagger him.

[steady meadow]

oh so not all islands are handcrafted? Uhh, interesting. felt that way for me. Guess their random creation engine is goated too xD

[pearl bolt]

some tuber was saying that people are quitting cos the games too tough, then he shows himself running around practically nekkid, being slaughtered by dodo's. some mothers do ave em.

[granite oxide]

So even if I show you a completed map - it won't help you - other than to see what a completed map could look like. Even the North South Each and West Islands can all be different entirely as to where your ocean void is.

[gusty sun]

I really want to try with exploration markers off.

[urban dirge]

any tips when boarding a ship? I have this Bitter pill quest and i just get whooped every time i get on there

[velvet spindle]

The early game is definitely a bit of a slog with combat. Even if you play it well you have such little health and stamina that killing stuff is hard to do

[granite oxide]

No many are procedurally generated- So you will have some differently shaped islands than someone else.

[rough ferry]

There's structure spawns and natural spawns for enemies. Structure ones mean the enemies always spawn there no matter what you do. The natural ones are ones like out in the wild and can actually be eliminated if you place a bonfire in range of the enemy's spawn point. This means you can spawn proof various different things. I did with the iron mine I found for example so I wouldn't have to deal with the freaking goats every single time I just wanted iron ore

[velvet spindle]

Let your crew jump over first and then just snipe their targets from behind

[pearl bolt]

is it the hunchback pilgrim? cos if it is i feel your pain

[pliant tusk]

dinged 15 and the chest had rapier of a thousand cuts, the struggle

[verbal flame]

As much as I like boats, I'm not going to travel around the map for hours to stumble upon islands. The loop so far has been each quest leading me to a new island, which is great, but not every island apparently. I also don't know how they plan on putting Ashlands into an existing seed if I were to hypothetically clear out the fog of war from 100% of the map.

[steady meadow]

take it slow. Let your crew do the aggro 1st then get in, kill a few and dont be afraid to run to your boat to regen and heal or even shoot.

Also fighting below deck is actually safer as the enemies tend to stick above. and if you kill any they respawn below. so early on it is safer to go below deck.

[minor lily]

use boarding party gear

[pearl bolt]

doesnt make everyone quit though

[ancient charm]

this is inaccurate, 'Shooting requires a gun, bullets, and gunpowder.'

[frigid ibex]

Can Truffle enter Boss fights? We just got ours

[granite oxide]

Don't be so eager to jump aboard - let your crew engage and shoot some rounds off - if you jump over and get hit - you can return to your ship and heal up. Be sure you use food before engaging and have your boarding kit upgraded as far as it can go - makes your crew stronger.

[ancient charm]

https://klipy.com/gifs/mr-bean-bean-19--k01KQ6BNQ63NZ74WRA0MNXGRR6H ive tried to shoot with just bullets and gunpowder and it doesn't work!

[pliant tusk]

also requires a character, a hosting service, a device to play on. how specific you wanna be?

[pearl bolt]

the hunchback pilgrim is solo

[vernal basin]

yes

[gusty sun]

Most games like this in EA try to push a fresh seed when the main 1.0 releases anyway. Wouldn’t get suuuuper attached

[ancient charm]

you have a character already if you're loading a save and getting the info tip

[frigid ibex]

😁

[urban dirge]

Might be part of the problem, i can't upgrade my boarding kit yet

[pearl bolt]

unfortunately the crew wont join

[hot plover]

excuse me this is a musket not a gun

[verbal flame]

More of a reason to not spend hours trying to find the last few islands!

[ancient charm]

touche, shooting requires a projectile launching device then

[hot plover]

Instructions unclear got dickens stuck in a cannon

[granite oxide]

You have the Ketch? Have a boarding kit? Are you getting the HP low enough to use the boarding kit or just going and jumping aboard from your ship without initiating boarding?

[ancient charm]

ketch me outside

[gusty sun]

Yep. Maybe clear swamp boss then chill. So much more to come or get reworked. Maybe find all the uniques I guess if they change acquisition or something

[pearl bolt]

yes, but the crew stay on my ship and wont board

[rocky oriole]

@sour plinth joined my game and destroyed my stuff so beware

[urban dirge]

is the Raiper of a Thousand cuts just not a good weapon for boarding ships?

[steady meadow]

I like to call them boomstick. Wood stick that goes boom. Boomsticks are fun. its life. And goes boom.

[verbal flame]

I love replaying EA games though leading up to 1.0. I replayed Abiotic Factor like 18 times before 1.0

[gusty sun]

Me and v rising, satisfactory

[subtle blade]

I wouldn't say its horrible, but I have several things I would use before that

[pearl bolt]

its amazing how fast we went from percussion cap to the modern day bullet imo.

[wraith kiln]

the acquisition ratio of ancient scrap to quagmire powder is way off

[fluid timber]

there's a mapping website.

[lavish thorn]

bro your character is blue

[daring nymph]

I wish we could dress our crew like we wanted like if we are going for a theme and look

[granite oxide]

Are you getting the ships hp down low enough to use the boarding kit and attach the lines?

[hot plover]

https://giphy.com/gifs/9xEjFxSoNNlK0

[rough ferry]

Well the thing about naval combat in this is: Its entirely based on how much of a bullet sponge you can be compared to the enemy. If you have the bigger bullet sponge, you win by default. Having bigger guns is good and all, but ultimately HP is the big thing

[lavish thorn]

put it in the feedbackreport on the in game

[verbal flame]

you guys ever just..

its not if you're progressing with quests and not just farming ore

[pearl bolt]

its the hunchback pilgrim, its health bar is white. its a boarding mission afaik

[urban dirge]

what kind of weapon/build do you guys recommend for boarding?

[vernal basin]

[lavish thorn]

it's underneat the "Play" option

[wraith kiln]

The problem is three people all needing to upgrade their gear and ships.

[granite oxide]

That has been brought up a number of times and they aware of that feedback but it doesn't hurt to put feedback in on it.

[lavish thorn]

what is the point of saying that when you can still submit it.

[subtle blade]

😍

[hardy vapor]

anybody care to share the craft for thousand cuts rapier and dragons breathe by chance?

[pliant tusk]

not really when you factor in the benefit of having 3 players vs a solo

[rough ferry]

"What if you wanted flotsam loot?
But 15 enemy ships said no"

[wraith kiln]

We have no more quests, and yet we need more metal

[granite oxide]

It might be the mission where you are not fighting the ship and going and jumping aboard and running below real fast to find what you searching for - then getting off asap without dying to get back onto your ship.

[gusty sun]

The one from the foothills boss

[wraith kiln]

And also we can't reasonably try different loadouts

[pliant tusk]

youve completed the game yet need more upgrades? for what

[minor lily]

pick a number 1 to 3

[pearl bolt]

yes apparantly thats how some people have done it.

[granite oxide]

Just so it is known that many people have already mentioned that.

[lavish thorn]

and many people still mentions PVP sooooo

[wraith kiln]

I'm a pirate; I don't understand the question. Amass loot, of course. Upgrade the other gear in the game in case we want to change things up?

[granite oxide]

There are a couple missions where you just sneaking aboard to get what you after and leaving - no fighting needed

[pliant tusk]

then amass the loot? it respawns, be a pirate and change servers or wait for the game time to pass

[granite oxide]

No different than this post as before same answer #💬│windrose-chat message

[lavish thorn]

I was helping and directing him to the in game not the discord dude. You clearly don't have a feedbackreport on the discord

[wraith kiln]

The metal respawns, that's not the problem. Powder to refine it is the limiting factor. That's why I said the ratio was way off. Either enemies should drop a lot more, or there should be another source.

[granite oxide]

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfhtwO7TTX6jYURrNBXcvW-isKB4Pgi6ZAktzSHmDAPWZxa8g/viewform

[pearl bolt]

well i fought through tthe first one ok, but the amount of sailors on this one are stopping me from getting below. and they keep respawning. but ill do it later on when i can.

[lavish thorn]

ahh there you goooo see, now you being helpful

[pliant tusk]

the powder is the least limiting factor, since there are so many mobs that drop it and you have 3 people to kill and farm it

[daring nymph]

ty

[rough ferry]

Indeed, more stuff needs to be fledged out before we get into other stuffs. Otherwise so far I think its quite good for an Early Access release...at least you guys have a game that is actually playable and has a decent chunk of gameplay

[verbal flame]

I think I am on plague crusher island

[rough ferry]

EA really is just being abused way too much now and is effectively being used as a way to scam people out of their hard earned money with quite a lot of stuff

[subtle blade]

I disagree. The powder drop rate is too low no matter how many people you have farming it. It's unreasonable to only get 1 per mob with no other source.

[steady meadow]

pirate camps. they are into those shiny bales. those respawn overtime. can always come back later for more.

[rough ferry]

"Why aren't people buying my incomplete EA game that's been out for 7 years already?" Because you never finished it or actually did what was promised in the game's description

[pliant tusk]

as a solo player with multiple maxed ascended weapons, i disagree. theres 4-5 mining spots per server, and a hundred + mobs to get the powder from

[wraith kiln]

It doesn't matter how many people we have. There is x number of enemies dropping y amount of powder. A swamp run will net y powder, but yx10 metal. We drown in scrap with not enough powder to ever refine it. Ratio.

[rocky charm]

Looking forward to updates. Haven't even gotten a brig yet though. Kinda tied progress wise to friend's availability.

[pliant tusk]

you're playing with 3x the player power of everyone else, ratio

[granite oxide]

I was being helpful before based on what I saw - but there was a feedback section however, due to hitting 100k players daily and people not looking for existing feedback, and hundreds making duplicate post on same subject, it quickly filled up and was capped. We working on alternatives. But the Feedback form is exactly same as the one in game.

[lavish thorn]

Bro, and people will keep doing it. I simply pointed him to the in game. It's not that difficult

[wraith kiln]

Getting powder still takes so much longer (server difficulty depending)

[granite oxide]

No it is pretty simple.

[vernal basin]

2ppl that didnt end up using it much in the end. most of it is looted

[minor lily]

you selling

[lavish thorn]

I know thats why i said go to in game and click feedbackreport

[pliant tusk]

so much longer for what? to max every weapon and equipment offered in game? be fr

[pearl bolt]

i think when we raid the pirate camps they should have more stocks of stuff we can take, like metal bars etc. that would be helpful and worth the effort. all i seem to find is stuff to sell atm.

[languid atlas]

So just got my write up done, I have containerized the Windrose Dedicated Server in linux using wine. I have only tested it with a single user also on linux so would love to see if other would like to test out the steps.

https://github.com/catdevman/windrose-server-in-docker-wine/tree/main

If you have a server with docker it if just a few steps to get it up and going.

My steam deck worked fine with this server as well so seems good for 1 player at least.

[granite oxide]

Powder isn't that hard to get - theres a number of ways to farm it, craft it.

[subtle blade]

For the record, we're actually talking about a different powder. 😛

[rough ferry]

Yeah I figured you'd have a lot of the same feedback. You always tend to on games that generate this much traffic in like 1 week. Having 200,000 people playing an Early Access game all at the same time is quite a feat. I don't even think Assassin's Creed Black Flag had this many players right off the bat

[steady meadow]

I see, my bad then! I'm sticking to foothills for the most part XD

[rough ferry]

Like sure this was a triple A release, but 200k people playing the game all at the same time? I doubt that

[wraith kiln]

Look, when you go get copper or iron: Mine raw metal. Burn up wood (ahead of time). Refine all the raw stuff. Mire metal: Get way too much scrap, and then grind enemies until you scrape up enough powder to refine it. It's kludgy

[pliant tusk]

i dont know how thats possible when the amount of enemies that drop the powder is abundant. as a solo player i have 2x the powder of any ore i have

[minor lily]

is there a console i can get by using -console?

[rough ferry]

Stuff is randomized, so your seed might just kinda suck for ore vs that

[pure token]

is there a glass wall build piece

[wraith kiln]

Last solo run into the swamp I filled my bag with scrap (so like 200), and got maybe 15 powder

[pearl bolt]

actually id rather get metal and hardwood etc from pirates than gunpowder tbh, i can make my own gunpowder and i dont find it that arduous.

[pliant tusk]

because you're running past enemies to get the ore and going back to base

[rough ferry]

I got one that's really abundant with ore which is fortunate, but gunpowder was a struggle for me and still is

[subtle blade]

I am just so happy with this I feel like I have to post a screenshot every time I walk in. xD

[lean rampart]

how do i beat the unsinkable ?? sailors just keep spawning

[vernal basin]

for that powder, rotate through poi´s. dudes respawn in there as well and you will have a lot in no time

[pliant tusk]

gunpowder isnt meant to be farmed, use the merchants

[granite oxide]

todays numbers on Steam were 211k, all time high is 222k concurrent players - all on same time playing the game.

[rough ferry]

I mean I just mine sulfur now to get it, which is my new bottleneck as I only have 1 deposit that's safe currently

[pearl bolt]

no, according to a youtuber ive never heard of b4, we are all quitting cos the games too tough.

[fossil zephyr]

Soon you'll be able to import it from your Merchant

[pliant tusk]

merchants

[last ravine]

Guys, is the Steam cloud fix update still going to take a while?

[granite oxide]

Sulfur is in a couple forms and it isn't too hard to find once you know what you looking for.

[vernal basin]

must be true

[subtle blade]

The reason AAA studios struggle to put out games players like is because they're all publically traded.

As soon as a company is publically traded, you are no longer the customer.

The shareholders and board members are the customers.

[rough ferry]

I've not defeated the Foothills boss yet and I'm out of money

[pliant tusk]

hes easier than the 1st boss wdym

[granite oxide]

Well if it is too tough, you can go to main menu and select your server and set to difficulty to super easy and it is a cake walk.

[pearl bolt]

yeh i think he was told by a bloke down the pub

[steady meadow]

i think they are being sarcastic

Edit: Nvm, they are not

[rough ferry]

I've been doing other stuff like getting farming going and trying to conquer the freaking ancient village. Which I did yesterday

[frigid ibex]

Pirate camps have reasonable supplies of gunpowder. Hit a bunch between sulfur mining

[pliant tusk]

ok? 2nd boss is a joke in comparison im not sure what point you're making

[rough ferry]

Literally the most annoying thing, and its what made me turn down enemy damage and HP

[compact quail]

lmao buy sulfur

[steady meadow]

its only doable after 2nd boss tho so (iirc)

[pliant tusk]

the merchants sell crates of 50. 50. its a joke for the exchange rate

[sturdy remnant]

I really love it I have played windrose for 4 days straight and it has been a very very long time a game has me this hooked

[vernal basin]

either projecting or hearsay from a bloke who never upgraded his armor.
saw a streamer or something loosing his shite over a savage boar after he charged that big guy with the armor he stranded with and 0 food. if i kept shaking my head at it i wouldve gotten an aneurysm lmao

[rough ferry]

I simply built my way out of the problem as well

[pearl bolt]

i quit playing ages ago, im still logging in and doing stuff but ive apparently quit.

[rough ferry]

Quite entertaining watching the goats and wolves kill each other. That alpha wolf got absolutely rekt by the 4 goats

[crystal sage]

It's janky and frustrating at times but not really tough

[subtle blade]

The Priestess on Storm's Edge is definitely tough

[sturdy remnant]

For a second I thought all those bushes were zombies😭🤣

[opal crescent]

Anyone got room for another person trying to unlock rapier of devastation and warriors ring lmk

[thorny pawn]

time to build walls around their spawns and funnel them into each other for easy hide farming 🙂

[compact quail]

frustrating, maybe
i have yet encounter real jank tho myself

[rough ferry]

That actually is a really good idea. Would give me a use for all this stone

I just wanted to be able to get fertile soil primarily. I actually did get the reward then afterwards

[pearl bolt]

actually it is quite tough imo as a solo player, but you just gotta take your time. its deffo doable. like i said before if i can do it at nearly 60 with shaky hands, bad eyesight and music studio deafness then anyone can play it.

[tall spade]

I'm getting cooked it says recomended Richard's level 4 and I got obliterated

[bronze belfry]

if i ascend a weapon can i get the tumbaga ingots back if i break down weapon later?

[rough ferry]

My main question though is, can the goats destroy stone stuff or no?

[tame brook]

Getting accustomed to how to play in the first few hours: maybe rough. After that if someone has trouble: totally on them.

[still oar]

can we plz bring in a perma death setting

[thorny pawn]

yes, but you can also farm the ingots, so dont worry too much about spending them

[fossil zephyr]

So has anyone really figured out what Stat Points (besides Endurance and Vitality) really do? Tested myself a Greatsword- Put all my points in Agility but it did the same damage as all my points in Vitality and Endurance. Perhaps it's something that's not fully implemented yet?

[frigid ibex]

Upgrade your armour and weapons if you can. Watch how they move between deaths and you will get em

[tall spade]

I have my stuff maxed at 5

[pearl bolt]

upgrade all your gear, take elixir of cruelty, a food that boosts hp and slap him full on with heavy attacks. it'll be over in moments

[rough ferry]

You dying in 1 second from a single boar

[fast dome]

We can farm ingots

[frigid ibex]

I died to Richard so many times. Use two foods for the buffs n bandages galore

[pliant tusk]

some but not all, easy to farm them in late game

[hot plover]

yeah at POIs all the way up to tutumbutusnsrtubaga ingots

[fossil zephyr]

I just call them Tingots. Easier on me brain.

[thorny pawn]

yes

[compact quail]

you get more damage for the stat, more crit with mastery

[solid tinsel]

I do wish in the future there is gold mine and silver mine

[fossil zephyr]

It doesn't seem to be that way. Using a Greatsword with all points in Agility did the same damage as my points not in Agility.

[rough ferry]

POV: You are Columbus in 1492

[compact quail]

well, it is

[fossil zephyr]

This isn't just a one off test either. I've done it with all weapons and Stat Points distributed all over.

[fast dome]

lol I know it was not a question and I clicked wrong person sry

[pearl bolt]

ok i know im low lev, but the jewellery bench is a total waste of time for me.

[subtle blade]

Looks at all these blokes just slacking off

[sturdy remnant]

You say this now

[rough ferry]

I'm gonna keep what I have already, but shove everything else I get into guns

[solid tinsel]

I think each crafting station add +1 comfort ?

[pliant tusk]

clips to prove?

[fossil zephyr]

I know it's 2026 but I don't play that game. Either try it yourself or don't.

[spring junco]

Chat is there dragons

[pearl bolt]

not slacking, meditating on lifes most unsolvable conudrums.

[shell echo]

you need it as soon as you can upgrade a green to a blue ring or necklace

[tame brook]

-.-

[hot plover]

Imagine... dragons

[pliant tusk]

i dont have to, i know the stats make a difference. if you're making an argument they dont, provide evidence

[fossil zephyr]

Evidence: Me playing the game (90+ hours)

[solid tinsel]

It is america not europe so no dragon.

[tame brook]

Why the hell would there be dragons and pirates. In a children's game maybe mixing two things like that would make sense.

[pliant tusk]

you complaining about the game*

[fossil zephyr]

Nobody is complaining about anything. It's called trials.

[pearl bolt]

yeh but honestly dont think the points equal the effort, i was hoping wed be able to make our own jewellery with it tbh.

[pliant tusk]

i have the same hours, the stats 100% make a difference. prove they dont

[tame brook]

This game SUCKS. 1/10.

Did I get you? 10/10. 😛

[fossil zephyr]

Simply testing to see what the points do and talking about it isn't complaining. People are crazy 🤣

[fast dome]

https://tenor.com/view/commercial-snickers-cranky-gif-5478685

[pliant tusk]

its complaining when you are refusing to provide evidence the game mechanics arent working as intended

[fossil zephyr]

I'm not gonna go back and forth with you about this. Either trial things yourself, or don't. No need to get all uppity.

[wicked laurel]

copper is a better bullet material than iron. it's denser and more ductile.

[shell echo]

I find it increbible to use a low stat green necklace and upgrade it to epic and +15 in a primary stat etc

[pliant tusk]

i already have, it makes a difference. the majority of us realize it makes a difference. if you want to claim it doesnt, prove it

[compact quail]

no precision vs. full precision

[fossil zephyr]

This isn't a mf Trial with Discovery and Evidence I gotta provide to the Defense/Prosecution 🤣

[pearl bolt]

and u get a nasty toxin from copper bullets

[fossil zephyr]

So it would seem to be negligble difference?

[foggy prairie]

Would love to see the following added in the future.....
-Fast travel to your ship/ set ship as a spawn point

• be able to add storage chest/Decorations to ships
• be able to either set a fast travel at the mines or have the ore available from merchants
• once you reach maxed reputation being able to gain Piastre for turning in Insignias
  -being able to see the lighting you place at your base from a further distance
  -being able to upgrade your camp fire to increase the zone coverage if your building massive bases.

[pliant tusk]

30%+ is negligible? ok

[tame brook]

400 points is a lot, but for a reload and losing out on health/etc not so much

[compact quail]

idk how like 40 points being 400 dmg is negligible when its affected by all multiplers and also increase crit damage

[fossil zephyr]

30% out of 100% is what we call a "drop in the bucket"

[pearl bolt]

i dont have the resources to go from green to epic with just the jewellery.

[pliant tusk]

actual down syndrome

[granite oxide]

Hey everyone, just a reminder. Please be respectful of each other. Read the Rules #📜│rules and be polite on any topic.

[fossil zephyr]

Like I said, it's a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of damage output. So hardly noticable at certain levels.

[tame brook]

That much extra damage would normally be excellent but not when you're losing out on health, etc.

[compact quail]

sorry but if you call a 30% increase a drop in the bucket, you are incorrect

[shell echo]

you'll get there eventually, there is unlimited silver and gold because they both have a POI where they respawn

[sturdy remnant]

Yo hear me out eventually…kraken boss fight for ships (after navel combat if fixed)

[pliant tusk]

boils down to skill issue for anyone complaining tbh

[fossil zephyr]

Insufferable the personality on this one

[scarlet cloak]

anyone can share me your server code? i want to try my connect with the servers

[grand reef]

yall need some vitamin sea

[compact quail]

math is not a personality trait

[granite oxide]

#1493029476970270740

[pearl bolt]

hard to fathom the darkside is

[upper garden]

i found a way to put the fast travel bell in the sand to hide the wood, no clue if it'll actually work or not

[granite oxide]

it will work if you get a green yes - can also put a bell down at water edge and then pull the ground up around it too.

[bronze belfry]

not many are going to open share their server code to many hop on to steal or tear thinsg up

[upper garden]

oh hey thats pretty neat, i might try that if i find a better location

[fossil zephyr]

Just btw +400 damage to to 2,000 is a 20% DPS increase

[pliant tusk]

math is mathing, again what point are you making

[fossil zephyr]

If I wanted your response, I would've replied to you btw

[pliant tusk]

mad that you're wrong, gotcha

[pearl bolt]

you gotta be pretty trusting to share your server with a stranger, i played atlas and someone joined our guild and nicked all my stuff

[compact quail]

20% is not a drop in a bucket either, and you should read, it affects crit aswell. now you are acting insufferable. no need to go at the dude

[finite wolf]

Quick question, there's no "official" servers I can join is there? I need to get an invite code from a private host?

[fossil zephyr]

Community gonna community

[pliant tusk]

complainers gonna complain (despite evidence)

[minor lily]

did yall know there was a time where soviet union leader could play nintendo with michael jackson

[pearl bolt]

mind u, u cant really get away with a lot on private servers cos you can just be booted

[wary lynx]

I just hit the swamp, yea... This resource grind wall that i hit just came out of no where.

[pearl bolt]

whats the grind for?

[tame brook]

What wall, swamp is easy to get resources

[wary lynx]

the quagmire powder

[fossil zephyr]

That's the fun. Now time to go collect. Just watch your back in them swamps. (Queue Banjos)

[pliant tusk]

watch your back from what? skill issues

[frail coral]

🤔 Regarding naval combat... how would you visually show the 'spread' on cannons (or whatever the term would be) caused by waves?

[compact quail]

20% more skill issue

[dark salmon]

Act 2 seems pretty intense. I have fully upgraded weapons and gear from first act but the foothills wolves are destroying me lol

[wintry marten]

Just farming swamps for 8hrs and still the resources are not enough for my upgrades... lol

[pliant tusk]

???

[pearl bolt]

chasin down a hoodoo there

[vivid dawn]

is baording ships worth the time for the rewards or is best to just sink them?

[wary lynx]

the amount of quadmire powder you get is rough. Like im basically stuck waiting for 2 hours for them to respawn

[fossil zephyr]

Think the mods need to crack down on the "skill issue" crowd. The rest of us trying to enjoy a game here (Ignored)

[bronze belfry]

i just sink them

[steady meadow]

sink white named ships. board the gold ones

Gold named ship gives way more piastre

[covert apex]

Henlo Pirade

[pliant tusk]

extra +piastre and sometimes trade goods, honestly worth just blasting thema nd moving on

[ancient charm]

8 hours is only 1 day of gaming, technically.. for a no lifer, for casual gamer that would take 1 week.

[gleaming folio]

Boarding ships with the chest icon on them give a bonus loot drop. The rest are just sinkables

[tame brook]

Better to say board the ships with the chest above the name

[vivid dawn]

gotcha ty guys

[bronze belfry]

why board gold ships? i just sink them all its easier

[ancient charm]

mods have a skill issue with cracking down

[frail coral]

Not on the smaller ships imo. You only get, like, 5 silver.
The ships where you have to fight 7+ people is worthwhile. 9+ definitely is. Anything below that probably isn't.

[glacial cloak]

Is the third boss in the game?

[gleaming folio]

Afformentioned "gold ships give a bonus loot drop when boarded"

[pliant tusk]

the game can be tailored to your skill issue, its called putting it on easy

[ancient charm]

what if its already on easy

[pliant tusk]

reduce scales to 0 on everything, makes it easier and thats called custom

[tame brook]

At that point skill issue, even when normally arrogant, applies absolutely

[covert apex]

Hello kitty island adventure might be a better pirate game for them

[normal maple]

I'm playing in a shared world, does every person have to purchase each aesthetic contract themselves or if one player buys it it unlocks for everyone in the world?

[shell echo]

#skill-issue is real, I still miss a lof of my cannon shots, but slowly getting better at aiming them

[fossil zephyr]

Tbf the devs wouldn't put Difficulty Sliders in the game if they didn't want you to use them.

[wary lynx]

ive been able to upgrade my weapon only cause the powder is gatekeeping me. I dont mind killing stuff for materials, but with how little powder the thrall give, they should respawn faster i would think

[ancient charm]

a lot of people want to feel they are normal, putting it on easy might make them feel like they have a skill issue. so they wont do it.

[pliant tusk]

its for people like you, use them if you need them

[glacial cloak]

Is the third boss in the game?

[fossil zephyr]

Still nagging? Pathetic

[pliant tusk]

still complaining? exhausting

[shell echo]

yes swamp has a boss

[tame brook]

Actually clarification: "Easy" doesn't actually make the game easy. It only changes certain things. You still need to drop the health/damage. So if you have a problem when on "easy" you need to set that too. Easy alone won't do it.

[fossil zephyr]

He's got a crush on me, what can I say

[glacial cloak]

is that the final part of the game that's out now then?

[minor lily]

Hello Kitty Island adventure is the best game ever bro

[shell echo]

yeah third biome and once you get to the point where the quest says " to be continued"

[compact quail]

if I wanted your response, I would've replied to you btw

[pearl bolt]

the thing is its not a competition, were in our own world, so why does skill matter to anyone outside of your game? who cares how other people play. good for anyone for having a go i say.

[fossil zephyr]

People make it real easy to Block them these days. Oh gaming what has happened

[pearl bolt]

play your own game, and enjoy it. thats all that matters

[dark salmon]

how do you d eal with 3 wolves on u in an underground cave

[opal marsh]

I just watch from the shadows and try not to get into arguments over dum things

[ancient charm]

lots of people are insecure and need to feel good at a game by putting others down. doesn't take pvp community to do this apparently. lol

[pliant tusk]

yes isolate yourself from opinons that differ from yours, thats healthy

[frail coral]

Mods should add a community vote system where we can just all band together to have someone walk the plank at this point.
The amount of people that come here just to be toxic is wild.

[compact quail]

i think mods should do something about toxic egomaniacs in the server like devo sr.

[fossil zephyr]

It's crazy really. They've turned it into me being toxic somehow when all I did was simply trial some mechanics of a game I clearly love.

[pliant tusk]

you're literally trying to say stat points have 0 impact on damage, when thats not the case and has been shown to you to not be the case. either prove your point or be quiet

[minor lily]

what if the toxic people are just drunk

[fossil zephyr]

All I see are blocked messages lol

[glacial cloak]

What stat points are most beneficial? is it worth even going into mastery or mostly just a main stat like agility / vitality

[soft lark]

make it perma death the character too lmao

[pliant tusk]

scales down after 20

[ancient charm]

i mean if mods aren't dming you, you're probably fine, i didn't see what happened. you're allowed to crticize the game, and most people know it doesn't mean a person hates a game when they think of ways to improve upon things. that's what EA is for, as long as your suggestions are polite etc.

[shy acorn]

is the trip to tortuga supposed to be this hard lol...

[minor lily]

i can see messages mods delete i have vencord

[fossil zephyr]

Well said

[glacial cloak]

also, does anyone find soul eater to be bad compared to other swords?

[pearl bolt]

i personally always do health and hitting power in a game.

[granite oxide]

It comes down to deciding what weapon you want to use and building your stats around that. So experiment with weapons and find something fun for you to play with and work from there.

[gleaming folio]

The math has been mostly broken down to where you can say 20 is the cap for highest scaling point. Mastery I'm not sure, and Vitality has no scaling cap, from what I've seen?

[minor lily]

i dit it in a kiddy boat

[cerulean panther]

Are these all walls or did I miss one?

[pliant tusk]

depending on the server, take your rowboat and float you wont die lol

[fossil zephyr]

I think you got them all

[frail coral]

If people are seeing it as toxic, you have the option to maybe not say things like that.
You can always ask yourself "Maybe I should consider what others think of what I'm saying?"
... and if you decide to continue anyways... I would say that's definitely being toxic.

[granite oxide]

It is pretty good if you build your gear, stats, food right - just like the other weapons. Depends if its something you enjoy playing with.

[ancient charm]

it's nice to brainstorm, and get feedback in general chat before posting feedback on the google form too.

[cerulean panther]

Please chill the discussion down.

[pliant tusk]

rowboat cant die you'll make it slowly but surely

[cerulean panther]

You mean these?

[fossil zephyr]

There are also arches in the doors section

[vernal basin]

feedback needs to be constructive as well.
i saw many fights over misunderstandings, false* info being spread or others just calling something "shite" and refuse to elaborate which doesnt help anything whatsoever xD

[granite oxide]

If it works for you and you having fun with it, then enjoy using it. Otherwise you can without issue play with the stats - it doesn't hurt to experiment with other builds and see if you get better results or worse off and need to revert - it doesn't cost anything to swap stats/talents/food/gear to test. Just you may want to be sure you like the changes before you max the gear out. Use what you enjoy having fun with. what works for someone else may not work for you.

[golden sapphire]

no seagulls is kinda weird, right

[cerulean panther]

Ah, ye

[gleaming folio]

They're just spy drones for Blackbeard anyways. Don't trust the gulls or lack thereof!

[fossil zephyr]

Lifesavers for those darned NPCs that wanna stand in doorways... but you don't want to make a door

[open ingot]

anyone have a solution for digging deep enough for a frigate draft to clear?

[fossil zephyr]

Someone is working on a experimental diving mod. Idk if you can use tools while underwater though.

[pearl bolt]

yeh i get criticism about a game, and im sure most devs know its part of the job. but i dont like trashing something completely and just being spiteful and hateful about a game. thats what killed atlas imo. people started to get personal vebally attacking the devs. when someone gets like that they should spend money on therapy not gaming imo.

[cerulean panther]

I had hopes we had some kind of sandstone, but I sadly no :(

[open ingot]

in other words no way to dig deeper than what you can reach with a floor below the water just before you start swimming?

[glacial cloak]

how much health do you get per vitality point

[granite oxide]

unfortunately can only dig far enough I think for a Ketch and a Dinghy, however depending on where you trying to dig at you may be able to reach further by building a Pier out - then steps down 2 x deep and see how far you can go down and still dig partly in water

[minor lily]

idk like 50

[opal marsh]

Thats what our builder did

[pearl bolt]

actually if your base is around a cove or inlet, you can surround it with brick and make a really nice looking pool.

[open ingot]

yeah I was able to place a floor just above the point where you start swimming, and dig enough for a brig's draft to pass through. but no luck on the frigate's draft

[neat gulch]

0-30 its 13.3 points per stat then it diminishes after 30 around 8 points

[ancient charm]

i just found an island with a cove deep enough, and built there, i wanted to avoid terraforming at all costs.

[leaden flame]

mannn i just got this game today and was stoked but i guess it just bricked my friends computer and now im nervous to play lol

[open ingot]

all the good coves I wanted, friends got to it before I could 😭

[lone nest]

anyone hacve a open game to join

[gleaming folio]

Does it diminish? I saw someone doing a video about stat points and in their testing Vitality didn't scale down like the other stats

[ancient charm]

i swear if i terraformed in this game, even though i could be good at it, i would be complaining in here so much the mods would ban me. so i spared everyone the trouble 🤣

i know terraforming is bad, so i avoided it. ill wait until the devs can cook on it.

[pearl bolt]

there is a small island on my map with absolutel no poi at all and its shaped like a crescent moon. great for a base.

[glacial cloak]

so the 160 hp armor set bonus is as good as like 11-12 vitality points???

[open ingot]

this is what I got right now. Harbor I can make deep enough at the edges. but the issue is the area in red:

[neat gulch]

it all diminish to all stats after 20 except vitality. You can test it yourself using a calculator

[dark salmon]

Do Rapier of a Thousand Cut bleeds stack in coop? Or is it only 1 dot per mob?

[open ingot]

stacks up to 5

[vernal basin]

all but vitality that starts to fall off at about 30

[pearl bolt]

have you built a bridge across the gap? that would look great and maybe a tower base

[urban ledge]

no, itll stack to 5 and stay there, youll get there quicker in coop, but cant have 2 sets of the bleed going

[lone nest]

is this game not like open world

[open ingot]

but I want ships to pass through there as a "fortress entrance"

[dark salmon]

ok, seems kind of weak then, cheers!

[ancient charm]

unless you can access admin commands and fly around under water you will have a hard time. and also, even with that, terraforming is annoying and takes forever, and hard to make look nice because the inputs are currently not great.

[vernal basin]

5 per mob. number of mobs with stacks does not matter.
500 can bleed at the same time if you manage to stab the lot xD

[open ingot]

it's pretty op, lets you do multiple bleed damage to multiple enemies at the same time.

[fast dome]

[tame brook]

Yea don't bother terraforming besides basic stuff at the moment

[pearl bolt]

good point

[glacial cloak]

calling one of the most op status effects rn that doesnt need any stat allocation (can go full vitality) weak

[visual elbow]

Yo

[granite oxide]

co-op survival, not an mmo no.

[neat gulch]

ah yes its 30, 13.3 points per stat in 0-30

[tame brook]

20 soft cap, 30 or 35 hard cap? I forgot, but yea

[ancient charm]

ideally instead of dig, we should be able to set a depth, and then a circle range, and apply that depth consistently to the ground. and then have a tool/option that smoothes transitions/edges. this is advanced stuff, and i don't really know what is possible in a non voxel game.

[abstract ermine]

here someone with the "OP" build with the rapier of devastation ? i saw a video someone hits like 7-10k dmg but cant find it anymore..

[compact quail]

went through an already cleared out ruin, result:

[vernal basin]

no real hard cap really. if for example each point adds 0.5% till 20 points, point 21 will add 0.25 to x points. at some point its diminishing returns.
its like adding 5 different base-damage multipliers right

[compact quail]

sure it was not the demo? cause the current rapier is incapable of hitting anywhere close to that. not even a quarter of that

[tame brook]

Thought someone said there was a hard cap maybe I'm remebering wrong

[dark salmon]

What makes the bleed op though? Is it just cause you can kite? At 5 stacks its like 80 dmg? Just wondering

[solid tinsel]

Anyone discover what is the chance of the fish weapon knock down target with Strength at 0 point ?

[gleaming folio]

It also works with restoring temporal health when you're hit

[dark salmon]

Ah Im using the blue version, dont have that effect from purple one yet

[pliant sleet]

Just came here to say that I have finally beaten Thomas Richards, may he rest in pieces!

[ancient charm]

probably the plague stack rapier can hit for 1k or something, depends how much health the mobs i am fighting have.

[dense falcon]

Bleed strong because it's a "Set and forget" damage type.

[glacial cloak]

10 enemies with bleed stack ticking 125 a tick (25 per stack) all at the same time = 1250 damage per tick across a group of 10 enemies while you run around and dont even need to attack

[vernal basin]

if there really is a hard cap, it cannot be reached without mods at this time

[dark salmon]

What talents would you use with it then? Just like endurance and stuff?

[fast dome]

Doing better than me... I get 12 each run.

[sacred narwhal]

Do trees respawn?

[dense falcon]

I'm sure the "OP builds" are being tested with enemies with max custom health settings on ship battles with 500% boarding kills needed

[vernal basin]

none do but divi-divi

[sacred narwhal]

I see, so divi respawn but none others. wonder why....?

[regal ivy]

anyone need help

[abstract ermine]

no, found it now

[ancient charm]

cause wood spawns in the ocean, and divi is a resource

[granite oxide]

It isn't anymore op than another build that is maxed out. Some people just really enjoy it and love the build. All the rare weapons are good if you enjoy that weapon and then build out to max it's potential. As an example I use Plague Halberd a lot. I rarely ever use a potion if at all - Unsinging Crude dmg, Trackers set to give Healing boost and defense bonus, and Also adjusting food and other gear/stats to benefit it. When I use the Special ability my hp goes right back to full. It's just what I enjoy using. Use what you find fun and interesting and build around that.

[sacred narwhal]

Ore respawns yea? iron, copper etc

[ripe moat]

is there a plague weapon that is agility based?

[vernal basin]

it drops 1 wood atm but that is temporary as far as i was told

[gleaming folio]

You can also plant trees and always get a seed back for it

[muted veldt]

About 10 hours worth of work today and pretty dang hooked

[woeful wagon]

Will we have to make a new world when ashlands drops?

[ancient charm]

yeah, every 6 hours apparently

[opal marsh]

I’ve gotten seeds from all trees but divis

[dense falcon]

Unarmed build when

[sacred narwhal]

Curious, I don't have any seeds at all lol

[regal ivy]

Any1 need help?

[ancient charm]

its a rare drop, have to cut the big trees and their stumps

[clear temple]

When is the next update coming ?

[ancient charm]

probably summer or fall for a big update is my guess.

[granite oxide]

A couple us us would love to have barfight brawls with fist to duke it out with friends lol

[night spruce]

I wonder if its possible for me to make an underground base

[sacred narwhal]

ohhhhhh lol I never cut stumps I thought they regrew from the stump, ty! I'll stasrt ripping them down

[ancient charm]

the devs need at least 2-3 months at 50 size imo

[dense falcon]

Sort of. You can dig down with a shovel, though you'd still need roofing or something else to act as the 'roof' of the area. But you can be below the sand, sure.

[granite oxide]

Partially but all depends on the height and location but you can definitely make the appearance of one. however you not going to be able to dig tunnels like in a voxel based game like Enshrouded.

[dense falcon]

What if we dug deep enough would the ocean water drain to china

[ancient charm]

if you go to a high area, you can dig pretty deep. and therefore have an actual high basement floor.

[dense falcon]

[ancient charm]

harder to do on a beach because you hit the water line.

[granite oxide]

yup thats why I mentioned height . Get enough elevation can definitely get the appearance.

[long cloak]

Drydocking the ships till the next update

[night spruce]

Haha thats cool

[dense falcon]

We should be able to upgrade the shovel as a weapon so I can bonk groups with real numbers

[vernal basin]

lets hope it wont break up there till we get that xD

[long cloak]

It's oddly stable up there

[night spruce]

Would be scary for the crewman still on the ship haha

[dense falcon]

They just get the penthouse suite

[opal marsh]

Well thats new… lmfao

[woeful stone]

Yarrr, let us duel wield swords!

[ancient charm]

i can tell you played valheim

[long cloak]

Never did,

[ancient charm]

oh we were doing that in valheim all the time too with the ships.

[long cloak]

I've decided that this is a "Feature"

[dense falcon]

Hmm.
I wonder what would happen if you dug the entirety of an island up

[ancient charm]

i saw fish in the water

[dense falcon]

Like just make it completely inaccessible except static areas you can't dig.

[gleaming folio]

Time for you to start a new project,

[junior hare]

Ok, this Quagmire powder farming sucks.

It’s my only problem with the swamp

[ancient charm]

the game has fish swimming around in the water. which is interesting.

[dense falcon]

Shark update when

[gleaming folio]

I mean. You can fish, so...

[woeful stone]

If you place overlapping bonfires, does it extend the range of the first bonfire, or does it technically create a second base?

[ancient charm]

well i dont think people know there is fish in the water - but i was unable to get a screenshot.

[dense falcon]

It technically makes a second base tied to the other bonfire, but for visual purposes it's the same base

[neon badger]

Time for a content expansion. We're getting pretty far out there...

[junior hare]

Farming a mob for a resource is fine.

But with how long the respawn for the thrall is, my god this is gunna be a super long time for ingots

[granite oxide]

Diving and other content has definitely been asked for - n clue what will or won't be implemented at this time. Will have to wait on Roadmap and see what they working on.

[woeful stone]

So I would need to move some resources to build in it?

[pliant tusk]

so many swamp islands, not an issue

[ancient charm]

you've seen fish in the water right? or was i hallucinating?

[dense falcon]

Yeah.

[grand sandal]

I thought that too. explore the islands. soon you'll have a ton. don't wait for respawns lol.

[woeful stone]

Thankyou ❤️

[dense falcon]

The bonfire acts like a "pylon" that powers all the other objects and buildings and links them together, and also prevents enemies from spawning too close

[naive mesa]

Hello, need help with my weird issue. I'm already at the quest Needle in a Haystack but the iron ingot is not Discovered on my end in Discovery. I already defeated Richards and I smelted the iron ore already.
Also, i dont have the option to build a toolbox. I already built the sawhorse.
Anyone experienced this issue?

[dense falcon]

You smelted the ore, but have you picked it up?
It sounds like a dumb thing to ask, but sometimes things are that simple.

[granite oxide]

You'll have a lot of Thralls to farm if you spread out over more islands. I found a group of about 20 roaming the beach on one island in large groups or 4 to 5 all coming together same time - I didn't last long but eventually got them all XD

[clear temple]

Gotta pick er up

[opal marsh]

There is an island with like 4 or 5 shrines at it, i get the bile and powder for my group of 4 on that island, ||it the last island you visit before the showdown with the priestess||

[naive mesa]

already picked it up. Still iron ingot related buildings are not showing.

[dense falcon]

[sacred narwhal]

On the topic os respawns, Do stone nodes respawn? and sulfur?

[grand sandal]

Yes they are resources

[naive mesa]

I even have Iron Pickaxe and Iron Axe crafted. But toolbox is not showing

[uncut plaza]

Is there a Mahogony Triangle wall unlock?

[dense falcon]

Stones inside of mines, Sulfur, and Clay all respawn

[granite oxide]

Regular trees Do Not re-spawn – But if you get seeds you can replant them Recommend replanting for decorations in a base layout. (Divi-Divi/Hardwood Tree Groves do respawn if you destroy the stumps). Ore and baskets (like what herbs are in) and bales (like gunpowder is in) – re-spawn every 6 hours. Pepper and other crops are on a 2 hour and mobs are also on a 2 hour timer.

[mystic jackal]

Is sawhorse in bonfire range?

[grand sandal]

Trees are the only things that count as non resources for the reason..... I have no idea

[dense falcon]

Anything with a map marker that doesn't gain a check-mark is guaranteed to respawn

[ancient charm]

anyway i saw fish at tortuga, i jumped in water, and school of fish swam by - i wonder if its only at tortuga

[sacred narwhal]

I appreciate that response, it answers everything!

[naive mesa]

Yes, it is on my bonfire's range

[opal marsh]

I built a shrek shack in the swamps and everyonce in a while ill get a plant zombie, thats what our friend group calls the thralls, knockin on the front door and everytime i open the door and blast them with the dragons breath, stupid plant zombies dont seem to learn the lesson

[flat vigil]

God we need more talent points

[tame brook]

No we dont

[verbal echo]

Hi! Can we made gun powder ourself? If yes, how i can do that? 👀

[bronze belfry]

finaly beat hands

[covert oriole]

ash and sulfur at a morter table or wtvr its called

[old depot]

easier to farm sailers than hunt for the ingredients sulfur

[compact quail]

kill first boss, progress in second biome

[vernal basin]

millstone^^

[chrome timber]

I thought Israel Hand was supposed to be difficult. Two shots from the Drake’s Double Barrel pistols and I took over a quarter of his health.

[verbal echo]

Thank u :3

[tropic elk]

Im hoping for a roadmap soon. Im stuck on "to be continued"

[compact quail]

what level is the pistol and what level are you

[chrome timber]

10 and Ascended it.

[brittle sluice]

Whats the point in boarding if the ship sinks anyways and gives the same loot?

[tropic elk]

Boarding gives money too

[opal marsh]

Silver and sometimes extra sellable loot and sometimes coffee beans

[plucky pollen]

Games stupid. Ridiculously unbalanced played it for three days and can't even fight livel 10 people or level 7 boats. Won't be playing again until after it's fixed.

[exotic hedge]

its wise to explore islands around you to get more exp etc or should i just focus on missions?

[plucky pollen]

Doesn't give you xp.

[brittle sluice]

Missions give good XP

[crude onyx]

i would recommend upgrading everything. clothing, weapons, and the three ship components, and then get the book when you can

[plucky pollen]

Missions are the only way. To do missions they recommend you be a specific level

[chrome timber]

Woof, I agree is unbalanced but it’s still playable. Just got go slow. Upgrade things and explore.

[exotic hedge]

completing ? ocations also gives exp

[crude onyx]

true. gather resources and check your upgrades when it feels like you hit a wall

[plucky pollen]

Very very little overall

[spiral swallow]

quests and pois give you xp. Explore all the questionsmarks do give you xp.

[exotic hedge]

exactly

[tropic elk]

No issues here. Im lvl 13 with lvl 15 gear and lvl 15 ship equipment

[plucky pollen]

How far are you into the main quest?

[tropic elk]

Im done with main story until they add more

[spare onyx]

I think you can put the game on easy mode

[opal marsh]

Im at the same with to be continued in the swamps

[plucky pollen]

And how long did it take you to get there....

[fleet chasm]

What level are you? Have you been levelling your guff up?

[tropic elk]

A week with 8 of us farming stuff

[uneven pier]

goto lvl that Guff!

[plucky pollen]

My gear is level 8 and I am level 7

I have the blackbeard brig

[opal marsh]

Took me like 16 hours in one sitting :3

[compact quail]

ok, after playing with the musket and dragonbreath for a while... it is fun and dealing with witches, shields or spears is infinitely easier than melee...
but you are squishy and ammo is annoying.

[high berry]

I'm sure this must have been asked before, but can you move a saved game from your PC to a dedicated server?

[fleet chasm]

Yeah you're really gonna struggle with level 10 enemies, then. Ship combat is kind of fiddly especially with multiple ships, might take some practice

[chrome timber]

I hate the swamp, I decided to check it out before I fought Hand. Bad idea, I was running back to my ship faster than Jack Sparrow.

[fleet chasm]

I don't tend to bother with enemies if they're any more than one level higher than I am

[opal marsh]

Valid and fair

[floral jolt]

and this is why you board

[half valve]

money money moneyyyyy

[chrome timber]

Anyone know what the purple stuff is in the swamps? Or pink? Or at least I think it’s pink. You enter it and you get a bar that I assume means you’ll die if it gets full?

[lost cypress]

and you can cheese the lvl 15s boarding easily if you desire

[lost cypress]

yes death once it gets full

[opal marsh]

I call them anomaly stuff, like anomaly wood, trees, flowers and the purple metal is anomaly metal, reminds me a lot of pacific drives mid zone from when i was playing it

[somber osprey]

it's called taint in game terms but I feel like it has a different name

[compact quail]

its wood plague

[chrome timber]

Aw crap

[shy acorn]

how many towns are there? just tortuga?

[somber osprey]

For now yes just Tortuga. We might get to see Port Royal or Havana, but I wont know until we eventually see a roadmap or smthn

[shy acorn]

or is port royale and ummm.. the other pirate towns in here? (its name escapes me... san something)

[somber osprey]

Nassau is probably what you're thinking of. We could see that too yeah

[sand fable]

Playing with my buddy and we were fighting Hands, i died, but he finished the fight and i didnt get credit but the fight didnt reset. anyone?

[chrome timber]

I hope the next area after the Ashland is a Rainforest biome. Why? Think about it El Dorado like City. We find a civilization that’s still thriving and they have the cure for the plague and a way to lift the curse.

[somber osprey]

There's a little blue idol outside the bossroom you use to reset the fight

[opal marsh]

||By far, my favorite encounter was when my builder took a trip into the swamp with me and went exploring and he was being chased by a crusher and he yelled “there is a fluffing tree chasing me” and im just dying in the call as im the fighter and literally just “what is chasing you?” And he yelled for me to come over and kill the tree monster||

[tired shadow]

What is the player limit for a dedicated server?

[uneven pier]

4-8 depending where you got your server

[queen nymph]

well, after many hours and deaths, I have completed windrose

[neat gulch]

I saw a 20 player public server

[shy acorn]

is there any islands with mountains on them? imma make a mountain coastal castle greyskull looking thing

[compact quail]

as many as the hardware can handle

[queen nymph]

you can build a dedicated server that can have 100+ depends on hardware

[eternal igloo]

anyone know how long it takes for trees to respawn? and wether the stump has to stay or be broken as well? (i know they dont regrow inside the campfire circle)

[queen nymph]

6 days irl

[tired shadow]

I see it maxes at 10 on the Nitrado dedi servers. Are there mods in the game for dedicated servers?

[somber osprey]

they dont respawn outside of Divi Divi & tar. Tar I've seen inconsistently but Divi Divi need the stump gone & take 6 hours

[queen nymph]

you are the mod if you buy it, but whomever buys the server can make anyone a mod

[chrome timber]

Woof, do they just focus on building and not combat?

[uneven pier]

the devs says upto 8 ppl for the best experience(even hosters warn you about this), that says to me there are some limitations with the dedicated server software.

[compact quail]

yes

[tired shadow]

okay thanks. But I was meaning Mods from the community. not moderator

[eternal igloo]

tainted trees dont respawn either? thats the one im trying to get to respawn

[queen nymph]

press M

[uneven pier]

use the mdo chanells then

[somber osprey]

They might but I'm unsure. If you need the wood target farm plague crocs in the meantime cause they will drop it

[open ingot]

Decided to keep the island/harbor and hope that devs add something in the game to allow for deeper digging or easier terraforming. for now I got lots to dig in order to prep for building my harbor

[tired shadow]

oh shoot okay

[queen nymph]

Oh search and explore thats half the fun

[eternal igloo]

and you said 6 hours for divi divi but only if the stumps gone? that explains why thats not respawning

[queen nymph]

lol did he leave or get banned?

[uneven pier]

both? 😄

[modest spruce]

[somber osprey]

Yeah from what I've seen on people saying those types of trees respawn, the stumps need to be gone on them.

[uneven pier]

stumps give hardwood so not sure why ppl leave them

[vernal basin]

never leave the stumps its more wood

[somber osprey]

Well with something like Dragonwilds for example, trees only respawn if the stump is left so I get it

[vernal basin]

or the forest iirc (been ages)

[neat gulch]

that's the "recommended" limit by the devs. I just saying I joined a 0/20 players public server when trading weapons

[queen nymph]

you got your answer, sheesh

[uneven pier]

well have fun on that 0/20 server

[queen nymph]

recommended doesnt mean limit, you can have 100+, 1,000,000 people on a server it boils down to hardware

and most hosting sites will limit it to 8-10 players, you can build your own dedicated server

[neat gulch]

"trading" so its not mine

[uneven pier]

tagging someone every message is rude.

[queen nymph]

I guess Kirriel doesnt read, just goes with whats in his head

[sacred narwhal]

What do the stars next to an enemy NPC's name mean? some have 1, some 2, some non

[uneven pier]

harder to kill, and hit harder

[queen nymph]

think of it as difficulty levels

[sacred narwhal]

I kindof figured but wasn't sure, love that! ty

[open ingot]

pay attention to mob names as well

[uneven pier]

2 star cant be a right old battle, cause they always bring mates 😄

[queen nymph]

plague crocs are the hardest thing by far

[sacred narwhal]

lolol solo'ing on a server with 4 friends makes things REAL tough. the muliplier is fun

[old depot]

I've got just over 500 Piastre now... I should save up for the Brig instructions? right?

[queen nymph]

depends on what stage you are at

[somber osprey]

I prefer it personally. When it's slower I dont need it, but when the server is more active messages run by so fast that an @ will let me know I'm getting talked to

[open ingot]

if you don't have the 24 lb cannons and blackbeard ketch yet, get those first.

[old depot]

Level 5 haven't opened the next area

[queen nymph]

lol naw worry about gearing up. Ship battles come later (the harder ones)

[opal marsh]

Yes basically, he is the designated builder

[old depot]

Well, I'm proud I beat 4 level 3 ships at once. But I still struggle with Level 5. My equipment though is all level 5

[queen nymph]

wanna see HOURS in farming?

[open ingot]

do you have the blackbeard ketch and 24 lbers yet?

[somber osprey]

(It was all the quagmire powder) 😂

[cerulean panther]

🔫 hand over the iron

[wild stump]

why is reputation shared on a server for factions, that seems like a bad call

[queen nymph]

thats only one chest 😄

[modest spruce]

https://tenor.com/view/give-me-monkey-gif-26066711

[queen nymph]

lol

yeah if any of yall need anything ill give ya some idc 😄

[neat gulch]

making arborum ingots is the most time consuming material to craft and upgrade for swamp weapons. I don't recommend for making it as bullets for range builds.

[old depot]

no, I still need to get to level 3 with the folks that sell the plans for 24 lbers

[queen nymph]

getting the vendors to level 4 was the easiest thing in the game, just spend about 2+ hours ship battles and youll get em all to 4

[old depot]

I guess I can keep taking ships till I got enough insignia

[open ingot]

I would do that before getting brig. 24 lbers hit hard and are excellent for ship farming

[wild stump]

dont even bother with the 24lbs just use 1 row of 36lbers and one row of 12lbers

[spare onyx]

Speaking of insignias, theres nothing else to do with them once we level up everything right?

[old depot]

I'm finally getting good at it

[queen nymph]

nope

[compact quail]

wouldn't bother at all
i falsely assumed u get 30 bullets from 1 bar, and that was ok in my head. then i saw it's 5 and said: hell nah

[robust halo]

I'm just starting in the foothills. I've got most the resources but haven't gone after the boss yet

[neat gulch]

yea 5 bullets in 1 bar is insane 😭

[uneven pier]

waste of mats

[open ingot]

care to elaborate?

[chrome timber]

Ohh he’d probably hate my little shantytown. Kind of going with a pirate theme. Well it’s a pirate theme to me.

[uneven pier]

elaborate on what exactly? ketch is the worest ship hands down

[quick sinew]

are glow in the dark eyes normal or am I cursed? 👀

what color did you pick for your eyes?

[quick sinew]

blue 😹

[somber osprey]

The brighter colors glow, yeah

[neat gulch]

wow thats cool! Sith eyes

[quick sinew]

ingame versus chacter select heh

[open ingot]

he's lvl 5 and isn't ready for brig yet. the 24lbers carry over to the blackbeard brig no problem. the 24lbers on the blackbeard ketch help farm loot that gives you silver when sold which speeds up the process for getting brig and other stuff.

Not to mention, you can just dismantle the ketch and build the blackbeard ketch at no cost due to the mats from the ketch. It isn't a waste of mats when you don't have to spend any for the blackbeard ketch, and the 24lbers carry over to the brig as an investment.

[cunning adder]

Wait how do you get glow in the dark eyes

[shy acorn]

what do we do with a drunken sailor?

[quick sinew]

You'll have to tune in to next week's shanty to find out

[somber osprey]

in character editting, you choose the brighter color opposed to the darker one

[cunning adder]

Lock him in the brig until he’s sober

[uneven pier]

there is no lvl limit on the ships, you can get t foothills at lvl 4 and have the brig at lvl 4. i know i did it

[neat gulch]

your character looks possessed in that house

[versed mist]

Built like a one piece female villain

[open ingot]

that wasn't the point. your argument was getting the blackbeard ketch and 24lbers was a waste of mats. I clearly showed otherwise. he has only 500 silver which isn't enough to buy the brig yet. So if he spent 300 silvers for 24lbers (that carry over to the blackbeard brig), he'd farm even faster

[fathom ocean]

Hey is there any way to save my dedicated server info so I can connect to it quicker? Typeing the ip and port each time is kinda a pain is all

[compact quail]

if i were to shoot you in the face you'd survive, cause the bullet is too afraid to hit

[modest spruce]

Need the drip

[quick sinew]

I'd eat it and only grow larger

can anybody help me get the reliable musket? My luck is comically bad apparently lol

[sick agate]

vampire coast

[uneven pier]

okay so we disagree, that is the nature of life

[lethal lance]

Has anyone else LOST DR. GALEN?

[cinder briar]

use your campfire

[open ingot]

go to bonefire and summon him,

[cinder briar]

@open ingot do you have the reliable musket by chance?

[open ingot]

No idea

[cinder briar]

itd be a craftable item at your weapons workbench if you did

[open ingot]

I know. can't be bothered to check. been digging for a while now lol

[cinder briar]

oh okay lol, I'm convinced im either cursed or the drop chance is NOT 20% lmao

[brittle obsidian]

24s carry over to frigs too so regardless not a waste of coin at all since you need 24s eventually ANYWAY

[open ingot]

and I honestly found the brig with 12 lbers being pretty underwhelming

[compact quail]

what drop chance are you talking about

[cinder briar]

the blue musket is a 20% drop from the blackbeard pirate camp chests no?

[brittle obsidian]

ye 12s are awful im almost to a point where imma give up the brethren frig just to enjoy 36s xD

[compact quail]

the game has no drop chances for weapons or armor
you get it from one chest in your world somewhere

[cinder briar]

oh, i see

[old depot]

Another first, going belowdecks while taking a ship

[main sleet]

can you zoom out when sailing somehow?

[brittle obsidian]

Is there anyway to farm an item you DIDNT get? i have all chests in map looted but im missing 3 necklaces

[vivid dawn]

how do i deal with the pressure plate traps that makes a gate come up when i step on it?

[blazing tiger]

F

[somber osprey]

unfort you have to get something to trade them or make an alt character to loot the chests

[solid tinsel]

Go around , there is always a way

[brittle obsidian]

everyone zone with ? on them are green checks and i did even try companion app, so im just straight up missing 3 necklaces

[cinder briar]

@brittle obsidian I would love you forever if you gave me a blue musket

[brittle obsidian]

theres multiple thats vague brother

[cinder briar]

the reliable musket

[brittle obsidian]

MY BOY! WELCOME TO 90 PRECISION MUSKET GANG! the goated build

[cinder briar]

YES MY PEOPLE

[compact quail]

did you try to visit some pois

[lethal lance]

Didn't work or I wouldn't be here. Evicting/Settling him again isn't helping, either.

[umbral timber]

Im in here again to ask the devs when ashlands is coming

[compact quail]

u put ur bonfire in some backwards weird spot or underground, didn't you

[spare onyx]

#│announcements

[lavish vector]

maybe in a year, the game came out 2 weeks ago, gotta wait it out bro

[foggy tree]

ayyy the 4th zone looks cool as hell

[open ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/cold-freezing-cold-freezing-gif-9258333116193691017

[umbral timber]

I have a feeling it will be less than a year since the footage of it seems close to finished, and they said the roadmap will come out after the next update.

[lavish vector]

I hope so

[spare onyx]

Asking for the date isnt going to make it come out sooner. Im sure the devs will let us know when they know.

[compact quail]

i love her

[lavish vector]

who else is awake at 6am right now?

[umbral timber]

If it takes a year for one update the future of this game is not very bright lol. I know it wont change anything but in about a month i wont be able to play for a long time so im just gonna keep bugging the devs to tell me a timeframe until then.

[main sleet]

its 7 but yea.. : P

[cunning adder]

One of the best missions in the game as of right now

[compact quail]

so good i forgot what its about

[bronze belfry]

only 11:58 here

[lavish vector]

yeah yeah I saw it after I typed it xD

[steep tide]

Are the NA servers down?

[open ingot]

or just let em cook. every time you bug em is more time that takes them away from coding to read your question and debate whether to answer

[main sleet]

more meaning where your at in the world lmao

[lavish vector]

Southeastern Europe

[umbral timber]

Ya they are going to stop everything theyre doing to read my discord message and debate whether to answer me lmao. People get so weird about this stuff.

[spare onyx]

Then why would you keep "bugging" them

[lethal lance]

Not really. But breaking and rebuilding it solved the problem. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[umbral timber]

Idk why are you typing in here?

[spare onyx]

People like you make me laugh

[austere saddle]

lol the game has a lot of technical problem I doubt it'll be out anytime soon

[spare onyx]

Wasnt my intention, but Im glad it worked out for you!!

[molten helm]

For work yeah

[umbral timber]

What exactly are people like me? People that get super weird about me wanting to know some kind of timeframe for updates are goobers.

[open ingot]

says the user being weird about bugging a group of devs constantly knowing they won't get an answer, lol.

may want to look up the word "facetious".

[lavish vector]

Damn people just enjoy the game, update will be out when they say lmao

[open ingot]

the pirates you kill

[lavish vector]

pirates you kill and their camps have cache's you can loot

[open ingot]

then go to biome 2. TONS of gunpowder. and sulfur.

[spare onyx]

Entitled people who think everything should be stopped and have the devs answer you specifically is annoying

[fierce orbit]

Hey guys, I'm new to the game and am looking for someone to hang out with...
Just kind of quiet playing alone.

[open ingot]

You are assuming so much here man. Im typing a message in a discord chat just like you. Nobody has to stop doing anything.

[chrome timber]

I hate the swamps

[uneven pier]

Well most ppl that buy into EA generally know updates are quite slow, from other EA games ive played, your looking at 3-6 months for content updates and minor tweaks 1-2 months and hotfixes as needed.

[lethal pecan]

there's a large encampment attached to a sidequest in zone 1 that has a bunch of caches worth like 150 gunpowder

[calm swift]

They kill this game if they wait to long

[uneven pier]

bye troll

[spare onyx]

I would save you the trouble, check #│announcements You'll get the answer as soon as everyone else does

[rocky charm]

It's kinda frustrating how one crewman can completely block you from reaching an enemy but that enemy will happily hit you through your crowd of boarding crew.

[lavish vector]

Bro right, like you gotta get that ancient scrap but they keep attacking you and filling up your inv

[glacial oak]

Wait how did you know that?

[fierce orbit]

So does anyone need an extra hand?

[molten helm]

It was kinda funny

[rancid sierra]

The problem is, the game has been released from alpha, from the demo, and now into beta/ea, a week ago. The devs are still working on MAKING their roadmap to the future. :p
There was one video on youtube showing an alpha version of the Ashlands though, but it wasn't on an official channel, so I dunno if the rule of posting alpha stuff in here still applies... It had skeleton bois in it.

[umbral timber]

Hold on keep defending people im not even doing anything bad to. Try to psychoanalyze me some more because i asked a question.

[calm swift]

I love this game, found it in the demo, but even battlefield died early off due to lack of content. Plus, they're a smaller studio with not much behind there name (to my knowledge)

[uneven pier]

i always need an extra hand, not using your own is always nicer.... 👀

[open ingot]

adjust your playstyle until you can afford to play ranged

[chrome timber]

Yeah I’m just trying to get croc hide so I can upgrade my armor and clothing workshop. That’s a chore in itself.

[molten helm]

Also based on what I’ve heard, Ashlands isn’t the run of the mill update, if it was EA you’d have to pay lol

what you need to do is go to #1493029476970270740 and beg there

[spare onyx]

I got you!

[glacial oak]

The simps are getting a lot better at spotting scams

[lethal pecan]

frame 1 fatphobia is also crazy from someone with an onlyfans-fishing pfp too

[lavish vector]

Lmao begging for gunpowder is wild

[vague flint]

Anyone who thought of helping you won't now...

[chrome timber]

Woof poor soul

[spare onyx]

Just give me a few days and Ill get it right on it

[rancid sierra]

Since you've already got the first boss killed, you can (almost) make your own funpowder.
You just need to find an abandoned farm in the foothills and obtain CORN to unlock the mill to grind your own.

[molten helm]

Oh the humanity!!!

[uneven pier]

you know theyd wait right? 😄

[feral heath]

Can I get a shotgun pistol and the skill like this 😂
https://klipy.com/gifs/black-flag-multi-pistol-kill

[spare onyx]

That would be funny lol

[glacial oak]

Hey at least I got gunpowder

[lavish vector]

DAMN!

[glacial oak]

OK THIS IS WEIRD YOU KNOW WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT ME

[rancid sierra]

Yeah. It is kinda sad that all the ammo reload is shared between guns. You can't just tab through eight different pistols and go down the line. 🙁

[uneven pier]

Secret Stalker...

[glacial oak]

Have a good night everyone; I'm off to go dump 800 gunpowder into the ocean

[umbral timber]

You guys are falling for a troll. This is exactly why people like me are PHYSICALLY HARMING people and putting a complete STOP to all dev progress by asking about the ashlands update in here. This game is addictive and the content runs out fast so everyone just types in here.

[long cloak]

Somekind of Boston Gunpowder Party?

[glacial oak]

no fatation without representation!

[rancid sierra]

I've been trying to give the grenadiers gunpowder so they could make bombs for me, but my charisma isn't high enough to pass the speech check. 🙁

[glacial oak]

Nope keeping the weight but dropping the gunpowder

[long cloak]

[gray badge]

new save, why is EVERYTHING in the north

[feral heath]

It would be a great addition to have separate inventory slots for ammo and gunpowder, or a special skill for a gun that doesn't require any ammunition to fire.

[radiant zealot]

Is there a place i can paste my review of feed back of items i thought of to pass along to the Devs

lmao
