No-one goes for it anymore. I haven't encounter anyone activating it or noone chased me for it even once. The whole gimmick of this is supposed to be a huge PvP bait.
I mean, it's cool that it is still in game so late brats like me can still get the cosmetics... but in all honesty I think it needs to be time limited content so people are actually excited about it.
IMO it should be ended now OR it could be only activated during specific times - maybe a recurring event at start of each season or just 2-3 days a month?
Skull of Siren Song is dead
Worked for what it was, was good timing in the game/season.
It still gets done, there is just a lot to do and people work on different things at different times.
Adding rep will help
More open comms than sell comms isn't something that works well, it's a lot of abandoningComms designed like cof would help it.
Decent reaper chest-esque content. No real down side to it at all as far as being a part of the environment goes.
@musicmee fingers crossed. Personally I'll probably vote it up to see if coincidentally it's near where I'm at. It's a lot of sailing to do for 50k and a bit of rep though. Did have some fun encounters from it but this one seemed to die out after first couple days sadly, people in such a rush to finish 😅

I think most PvE are going for the new emissary stuff right now.
Most world pVp events, whether it's fleets, forts etc. have mostly been uncontested this season IME. Not sure if the diving mechanic has anything to do with it.
They're effectively bait for crews who want PvP i think, maybe why?I dont think limiting it will change much about it since most people already have everything finished in it. This was a case of it just having not enough restriction to start, nor enough reward at the time. Maby when they add the guild rep they said it will offer last news, it might become popular again, but i got some doubts, depends how much it offers im betting.
@fedted998 depends on your viewpoint but it was specifically designed as an event to promote pvp interaction:
Server wide beacons and map markers
The slow effect of the skull is to enable chasing ships
There's an achievement for stealing an item from someone else's ship
Respawn mechanic where you're close enough to still contest after sinking
Just to add I think we need some form of tracking the number post commendation finish.
With chests of fortune I could see how many above 30 I sold via the treasure sold to gold hoarder milestone (when using captained ships).
For this there's nothing, only extra ones I've done are helping friends who haven't finished their comms
@hiradc ok, but maybe now, where the season is just got released, peole are more into the new things. for example, also the Chest of fortune now is more easly obtainable, remember when came out how was every fort of athena? it was a madness of cannonball, ships and people hiding in the fort, it was majestic, and now? not everyone wants to do the raid to get that. in every season, the most of the player does the new thing (mee too, now i have to reach lv 100 with every emissary, it's my must-to-do-asap) and the latests are left alone.
for the siren's skull there's no any accomendation where you must steal one from the people, and with the fact that this skull doesn't give any emissary bonus maybe is the reason that most of sot player now are not caring too much for it
for me the most aggressive players have done every accomendation of it in the first 2-3 weeks ( i have a frend that does exactly this, now he's doing something else)
maybe they should put some ship/pirate set dedicated only obtainable with the captain's milestones

+1 to this. Either make its appearance super rare and random (like 3% of game time), or only have it show up during community weekends or something. If it's rare, it's more likely to be contested.

We could do this with all the content experienced players don't use anymore...

100%. Make base voyages easily accessible, then have special world events (fort of fortune, fleet of fortune, skull of siren song, hopefully more) super rare and exciting whenever they pop up.

Ummm... it was sarcasm 🤣
People are probably waiting for rep to be added.
I like accepting the quest for a little radar, then waiting for a server merge so no one else is participating, then go for a leisurely cruise with my extra disco lights.
Definitely not dead all the way yet lol
