  • @sz-zigo 100%. If they don't add new items, I have literally zero reason to put up an emissary flag other than getting the multiplier for selling, and for being hunted down by Reapers.

    I really hoped they would do different variations of figureheads, cannons and such.. Hope they will update the rewards this week, if not, I'm very disappointed.

  • I'm hoping it will take a day or 2 to dish out the rewards and add a new set of rewards to look forward to.

    If not, this is just laziness on Rare's part. Seriously. 30 days for the same rewards? The only real incentive for me was to get the exclusive rewards, the first 40 days of rewards feel less special and theres nothing to look forward to for the next 30...

    Unless you care about more gold/rep from the flags and commendations, there's no real purpose for the ledger system.

  • Did we get the rewards for last month?? I can’t find them in my inventory?

  • @promotordj
    Same issue here. Restarted the game but cant find them

  • Considering Rare didn't believe it to be possible to attain top tier in all 5 companies in one month the plan was to change the rewards every 5 to 6 months to give everyone a month basically to grind each company. The rewards are meant to always be additive though if I recall.

  • They said from the beginning these rewards wouldn't change every month. It's intended to let more people earn more of the rewards without daily grinding. Your disappointment is on you.

  • I may be wrong but i was pretty sure when Emissary's were first introduced Rare had stated the rewards would be remaining the same for the time being.

  • Anyone receive the sails yet?

  • @taternuggets Well, if that is the case, a lot of people will stop representing as Emissaries, which again will leave these casual players out on a ton of commendations such as selling stolen loot and flags.

    It has to updated every month, or else everyone that maxed out all factions will not play as Emissaries. Simple as that.

  • Trading Companies will distribute the rewards shortly after each monthly Ledger closes. Please allow up to 72 hours for this to happen.

    From the Sea of Thieves Leaderboards page.

    Also from the same page:

    I’ve only just started contributing as an Emissary and it’s nearly the end of the month. Will I miss out on the rewards?
    The rewards will not change from month to month and will still be achievable by performing well in the next month’s Ledgers. So you’ll have another opportunity to earn rewards if you were late to the game or focusing on other acts of piracy!

  • @cptnpotbeard really? It's so easy to reach the top tier. In the last month i've reach only three times the grade 5 of emissary for order of souls and of merchant alliance ( and completing 3 emissary quest for each of this two companies) and i've largely in top tier. It's too easy to reach the top tier.

  • @kashmero 100% agree. If the players that spend more time in the seas will stop to raise a emissary flag the entire emissary sistem will die. If there are no more emissaries also the reaper's bone faction will die. This is unbelievable.

    I've lost this news, my fault. But if that's their intenction, they can cycle the rewards. For example:

    • Month 1: sails
    • Month 2: hull
    • Month 3: cannons
    • Month 4: wheel
    • Month 5: capstan
    • Month 6: sails (the same of month 1)
    • etc, etc
  • @sz-zigo I agree, I would love this.

  • The actual problem is Rare really try to please everyone.. Make monthly hiscore with rewards, players complain about real life issues, then they nerf it to top 25% gets the rewards instead of top 5% in that way all the prestige was lost right there about those sails. Players to this Day still complain about The legendary seadog commendation with the 240 wins in Arena.
    If Rare wants to make this game competitive and have some meaning going after high end cosmetics, they need to get some backbone and stop to make everything obtainable to everyone. JESUS players even complained about the arena event where you had 20 DAYS to get 20 WINS and still complains about it being unfair because: "ReAl LiFe StUfF" not everything is meant to be obtained unless you dedicate to get it and accept the challenge as a true scurvy dog 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

  • @raza-longknife Ha so true lol. I like your mind set. Just grind ye scurvy landlubbers. I had to grind, so why don't you :)

  • @sz-zigo My guess is they didn't expect so many people could achieve top level in multiple factions and it was a bit of a learning experience. Perhaps they'll make changes moving forward.

  • @sz-zigo Oh I agree completely it's too easy. Honestly that's fine though so people don't feel like they are missing out on cosmetics which is really the only thing to show any progression in this game. I myself got top tier across the board and really only played the first week of the update.

  • Yeah it should be different each month.

    Edit: If not, at least give players like 25k gold (or something similar) for already having the reward.

    FAQ on leaderboards page say it may take upto 72 hours for everone to receive their rewards.

    How about changing the ledger rewards so that they are available for 2 months, giving players 2 attempts to unlock them but each month a new reward is added so there is always at least one new reward to work towards each month

    Month 1 sails
    Month 2 sails/hull
    Month 3 hull/figurehead
    Month 4 figurehead/cannons
    ...

  • Not everyone

    • Is part of alliance server to quickly sky rise.
    • Spends hours playing just to earn the ranks

    So not everyone will be rewarded the sails.
    (Enough posts clearly shows...newbie pirates having hard time trying to do simple TT, so yeah)

  • @ian333333 you already can get cosmetics for that company by leveling up that company

  • @swampxcheeks said in New emissary ledger, old rewards:

    @ian333333 you already can get cosmetics for that company by leveling up that company

    What rewards would you offer for the top 25%/50% in the ledgers then?

    More gold/doubloons? to spend on what? Cosmetics... rewarding players with cosmetics just cuts out the middleman

  • I’m talking about when you said that they could add cannons or capstans and I was saying that there is already cosmetics for every company, but I don’t know why they put the same rewards either

  • @burnbacon to be fair, you dont have to be in an alliance to rank up quickly. If you are smart about it, it takes 45 minutes to rank up oos and goldhoarders to grade 5

    Athena is a bit harder now (it was easier) and reaper can get grade 5 in about an hour and a half or one lucky murder spree

  • @swampxcheeks i believe he wants a gucci capstan/figure head like the sails

    I thought it should be at least every 3 months, giving all players time to reach rewards.
    Let's consider that to all this are added the monthly missions that will eventually return to the game.

    The seasons are not per month, in any game.

  • @promotordj Did you not read how it could take about three days in order to get your rewards? It showed it right at the bottom.

  • Yeah it was a dumb decision to not cycle rewards. Such a waste. At least give us some alternative. You literally have no incentive to get the ranks if you already got them the first time.

    I heard that they were possibly doing this but just didn’t want to believe they would make that decision.

  • This is not news. This was said one month ago when it was released. The rewards for the ledger will not be changed in the near future to provide all players will ample time to get them.

  • @kashmero said in New emissary ledger, old rewards:

    @taternuggets Well, if that is the case, a lot of people will stop representing as Emissaries, which again will leave these casual players out on a ton of commendations such as selling stolen loot and flags.

    Yea because who in their right mind would want to do something in a game that gives them extra risk, reward and reputation.

    Plenty of reason to use emissary aside from a leaderboard reward. I swear some of you guys on this forum want all these exclusive rewards but don't actually want to play the game.

  • are you guys maxed out every fraction? so why i shouldnt raise an emissary when i grind a fraction?

  • @taternuggets sadly it wasn’t even that hard to get there. I played quite a bit but one of our crew only played once a week and still got in the top tier.
