Something harder and better than pirate legend?

  • Is there anyway we can get a title that's not so easy to achieve and will be rare throughout the seas. Something that doesn't duplicate the exact same thing's we've been doing for alliances? Maybe offer an official pvp title rank system, or a most wanted system. Kills give ranks and deaths lose ranks.

    Just something that the entire game wont have so easily and the risk vs reward shows you are truly a king of the sea?

    I think whatever the highest Arena promotion title will be will probably give you what you're looking for!

  • @mc-leggers

    Wait for the arena to be released; if you are looking for pvp based commendations I can think of no better place for them to be.

  • Legendary hunter of the shrouded ghost lol

  • The Arena PvP mode is the place to drag the game down with these narcissistic mechanics that turn any game into an ego filled cesspool. The core game does not need such things. Was never meant for Sea of Thieves and what is left alone in what will now be called the Adventure will be so much better for it.

  • The only titles that will be "not so easy" to achieve are the ones that they introduce for an event and then disappear from the game completely or that are currently very low chance of occurring (ie. the Shrouded Ghost hunter title).

    Every other title is dependent on easy to complete commendations or just length of time spent in game (ie. Pirate Legend). I imagine anything related to the Arena will be the same.

    Aye I think the arena titles are going to show the true pirates, although if it's anything like in other games, you can get carried.

  • Anthena 10 isnt that great either, it's just a reharsh or getting to PL, something new, that anyone can get, but it also takes a relatively high skill level to achieve

    While those used to be a thing, that is no longer the case. Along with the commendations, titles have been reworked so there is no longer a time-based component. The only thing left that is time-sensitive are the events themselves and the limited cosmetics tied to them (with a few "rare" exceptions, such as the Overachiever Sails).

  • @Mc-Leggers
    You should try: Legend of the Sea of Thieves.

    Sink 500 skeleton ships as a Pirate Legend.

  • I would think any kill / death ratio system would just be abused.

    Top streamers would just get their fanboys to feed them kills etc. similar to what happened with the first pirate legend.

  • I personally would like the reputation ranks to keep going up. I'm pretty sure a few pirates will be at 100 100 100 if it just kept going.

  • I dunno, grinding the exact same things over an over again has become tedious..Need something new, worth doing, that let's you actually stand out in stature

  • @mc-leggers A few folk have expressed the same sentiment as you, and my reply is still; It isn't about grinding.
    It's not about titles.

    Sea of Thieves isn't a loot-shooter or MMO where the flashier titles and mounts you own, the better.
    It's a game about people, and their adventures. My crew and I have probably dug out thousands, even tens of thousands of chests at this point, and we still keep doin' it. Not because digging is a hoot, but because each voyage we embark on has infinite possibilities for fun.

    If a title is simply what you crave, like @Elwe-Seregon said, just go for the 500 skeleton ships. Few people have that I imagine.
    But a title is just that; A title. Words under a name. In Sea of Thieves, your actions speak louder. I've met countless Sailors worth twice their salt than some Legends, and that's what SoT is about.

    Let your actions and experience show how much a "king of the sea" you are, not just some arbitrary title.

  • @mc-leggers agree pl10 isn’t a massive achievement anymore. You can get it in a week with a good crew. Not like before cursed sails, back then we had nothing and if you got pl10 you were a very very rare pirate lol
    Got mine back then. Deff want something better

  • I suggested a long time ago we should have a game completion title “Pirate Lord” for finishing all commendations in the game I guess excluding bilge rats as that keeps updating. And should be awarded A hull, sails, figure piece, flag, cannons, anchor, and helm. Along with A “Pirate Lord” Outfit with all weapons and equipment to suit. Now this is a bit more involved as sooooo many pirates just fort hop their way to pl and speed run Athena’s to 10. There are not many of us who are near game completion. Discord players don’t get recognition!! Only real grinders in the open servers. Sorry had to add that for the friends who play in closed discord servers and are competing with me lol 😂
