Spider Figureheads

You are true to your name always mad, if you actually checked the events you would see we are halfway to the first figurehead... 25 mil/50 mil.

Don’t be so doubtful matey!
We are already half way for the first reward and plus we have 21 days to slays those skeletons!

The best method of farming skeleton kills is by boarding the skeleton ship with crewmate and plenty of food and start spawn camping them but if you not feeling that brave you could always do bounty voyage or certain Tall tales that give you alot of skeletons to kill such as the Heart of Fire!

Now shut it, raise ye cutlass and grog and begin slaying those skeletons again!

An Event that actually takes time to complete is honestly a great thing, and seeing that all we have to do is slay skeletons... Just do a tall tale, a world event that involves skeletons, slay skeletons on skeleton ships and bounty voyages, or even the many emergent skeletons running about. It's not impossible at all, it's a community effort. Now, just don't get spawncamped or emotionally/mentally discouraged from playing the game and you'll be on the right track.

And only 1 week into the event. At this rate, it'll be done by next week.

Impossible indeed.

not even lol its been live for 3.5 days... we got this

Doing basic math we're on track to get both figureheads before the timer is even up...so...?

I did some math, the event has bern going for a week as 14th-7d=7d

So far we've slain about 26million skeletons so 26/7=3.71 mil skeletons / day. If the eveny had been live for 7 days and lasts for 20 more, at this rate we would end up at ~100 million slain as the event lasts for ~27days and that times the daily avreage (27x3.71) is 100 (or 100 million)
As the final figurehead requires 150m to be slain we wold had to slay 5.56m skelies daily from the start untill the end.

@limend that part of the event only went live october the 11th 2pm my local time it is currently october the 14th 7pm my local time.

Oh I wasn't aware of that. In that case my older post is insignificant.

@madfrito99 Rare states on their website they have a playerbase of 20 Million. The gateway to qualifying for these rewards is 10 skeleton kills (which also gets you the title). If the entire playerbase killed 10 skeletons, that would equal 200M skeletons killed. Easily obtainable. At the current rate (as many have pointed out) these will be in our inventory in no time. Sea of Thieves commendations and achievements take time. I’m glad they put a stretch goal out there for us.

@wolfmanbush the same mindset I have!

Why work when others are willingly to do it for ya!

Also its worth pointing out that this event hasn't seen a weekend yet. I have a feeling our skeletons per hour is going to go up starting tomorrow.

@callmebackdraft another classic post where someone throws some melodramatic point out there then disappear when it is proven wrong or that specific facts or data were cherry picked to support argument while ignoring everything else. I can't say I'm shocked.

@steaminscaldren I think I have Arena PTSD, when I read your post I hear the talk to text in Arena Lobby saying that over and over and over.

@hijack-hayes I mean I checked when the even started as I thought it was when killing skeletons began as well. Also I admitted my mistake so what's the point of bringing it up?

@limend my point or OP's point?

Only post posted by Callmebackdraft was as following (not tagging him as there's no need)

@limend that part of the event only went live october the 11th 2pm my local time it is currently october the 14th 7pm my local time.
This means this we as a community have slain
26.6 million skeletons in 3 days and 5 hours or 77 hours that is an average of 345.454 per hour.
The total event will run until November 4th 11 am my local time, this means the total runtime for this event (start to finish) is 574 hours or so.
573 * 345k = 197.945.142
And thats not even taking into regard that the current slain skeletons all happened during weekdays and its usually way busier in the weekends
@madfrito99 how is this not obtainable exactly ?

As I was the onlyone who had offered data (which I got wrong so I guess one could say I cherry picked them)to whom he replied to I assumed you meant my post as he didn't have any sort of "data" to back his statement.

@limend sorry dude, I meant the OP, not you. There was a different post we discussed that I believe had some pretty sketchy data/points on it.

@madfrito99, almost to 34 Mil... just wanted to give you an update.

I did some estimations on the first day after 12 hours were up, and my low estimate was eerily similar to yours, at 196 million. I did another after 24 hours and had 235 million. In either case, I don't see the community not hitting this, especially as that was an off-peak day.

For the people doing calculations, this event had a false start. It started about a week earlier and was stopped within a day. I don't recall the precise numbers though. I assume the thousands of skellies killed in those hours also counted.

Still, goal will be easily reached IMO.

Short shorts?

@galactic-geek Halloween doesn't start for a few weeks, however that image will keep me up at night.

The challenge started 3 days ago. We are currently on 38mil. (So like 13mil per day) 20 Days remaining. I think we are quite okay
