Is there any reason, other than you just have too many duobloons, to run the merc voyage more than once?
Anyone else running into lots of bugs post update? Tonight i have yet to see any progress bars update, had duobloons credited without ui pop, a ship of the damned whose door never opened that i figured out how to respawn anyways by walking through the door, and a glitchy meg that chased our ship, rather than the usual circle, only to clip on the rear of the ship virtually stopping our progress. The only fix for this last issue was to jump over board and have the meg run into one if our crew allowing the ship to sail away - the meg eventually outright dissapeared. Havent run into so many issues in one session in quite some time.
Doubloons are great for leveling up + they might come handy in the future with doubloon exclusive content.Is there any reason, other than you just have too many duobloons, to run the merc voyage more than once?
Pls no. They are a great addition.I really wish they'd remove those darn skeletons that run at you with gunpowder.
On tonight's session we had both a meg and a skeleton ship at either side of us. I've no idea how we got so unlucky, but needless to say we got ruined.
You shouldn't have much trouble, the quest triggers easy skeletons (go down after 3 sword swings, no guns apart from captains) and isn't very long. Just be careful when getting the final 3 drunken chests, greedy pirates might try to rob ya!Having difficulty getting a group to play now but wanted to do the Mercenary voyage. Do you guys think it's doable solo or is it going to be a pain in the butt?
Did the merchant quest and took down a stronghold with my friends last night
Like 25k or more in the run, damn
So what's with the 3 final drunken chests? I already got one (from the X map), the riddle didn't have a drunken chest and all I got left is the crates thing and the captains.You shouldn't have much trouble, the quest triggers easy skeletons (go down after 3 sword swings, no guns apart from captains) and isn't very long.

After you've finished all quests, you'll get a final map with the 3 drunken chests - the one you've already got is bonus :)So what's with the 3 final drunken chests? I already got one (from the X map), the riddle didn't have a drunken chest and all I got left is the crates thing and the captains.
Nice one ;)Oh and yeah, already got a Brig following me (solo on a Sloop), but I killed the guy that jumped on my ship and when they kept following me I got them trying to find me along the wrong direction (did a 180 turn behind some rocks and hid there, then moved around when I assumed they were on the other side, then kept going straight and after a while I saw them fading into the fog).
Welp, way to end this voyage. After spending so much time solo fighting a fucking KRAKEN, a skeleton ship almost wrecking me as I'm reaching an outpost, then finally getting the 3 drunk barrels and just as I'm hitting the outpost (literally already down by the beach on my rowboat) a galleon comes by, wrecks my ship, kills me and I respawn in the other side of the fucking world map. And what I don't understand is that they literally came out of nowhere, straight towards me and moved around me a bunch of times trying to take me down until I landed into the island. Could they have known that I was carrying this stuff or something???
Ugh. At least I got the voyage done and was able to sell one of the 3 barrels, but I assume they found the other 2 and sold them. Lost motivation to play this solo anymore since it seems like the game actively fucks with you in those situations more than I've experienced when playing on a Brig or even a Galleon.
Oh well! I mean, I know this is what the game is about, obviously. But still a good reminder to not play this solo, at least unless I plan on just being on the griefing side (and I don't like doing that, so...).
Edit: btw, I'm just salty now and I know I'll go back to it. Still, god damnit Rare, you could balance things out a bit so that playing solo isn't a suicide mission.
https://support.seaofthieves.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115012749647-Windows-10-Audio-ChatHello, I just got a friend code for PC which I can use to play for free until a certain date. I have been playing solo and enjoy the game so far but I can't seem to get the voice chat to work. I've tried allowing my Sea of Thieves and the Xbox app access to my microphone and also tried changing settings in the game itself, but I can't get it to work. Could anyone help me with this problem. Thank you.
Already tried this but doesn't work.
Haha OMG, did it also grab / slap the skelly ship? Would be hilarious if it would also suck up the skellies.
there were a few times it looked like a wrap was about to happen but the tentacle would just clip through & disappear. tbh it mightve been ones pointed at our boat that was going under the waves coincidentally as the skelly ship was passing by
They really don't. That's the problem right now: the endgame for Legends is to sail around and make their own fun while grinding commendations. Chasing and sinking/robbing people is way more fun than grinding out Devil's Roar cargo runsGot absolutely annihilated tonight by four pirate legends on a galleon. I guess they've got nothing better to do in the game other than be dicks.

I've been playing a lot of Apex recently, but I think I'm going to have to put it down to the side this week for the SoT Pinoeer, instead.

Can someone PM me the times? I'm a pioneer - I can't find the info. *tips pirate hat*
Seriously, gonna need a crew of fellow Pioneers - add me on XBL, maybe drop me a PM so I know who you are. Will be doing my very best to get on this evening. :)
