THIS is how it should be.

    I just realised that tucking on a ghost garrison and waiting for someone else to finish it counts to the Demolition Plan achievement.

    This means you can also PVP your way to getting The Servant Of The Flame hat (Which I am really happy about as I am NOT doing the veil 50 times).

    This must be how all cosmetics are rewarded. The easiest way to do it is PVE but you can also get it by doing PVP, although harder. Kind of like cosmetics that need gold.

    Sadly this is not the case for a lot of cosmetics. I dont find voyage achivements a big problem other than cosmetics like The Servant Of The Flame cutlass (Because you know, You kinda have to work for Athenas fortune to get the sword of the head of reapers and all after waiting for the cutlass to drop as a reaper reward for YEARS.).

    My biggest problem are the world event commendations. An example: the hunter of (insert Ashen Lord here) achievement needs you to defeat an ashen lord 5 times. What if that was changed to Hunter of Red Ruth: sell an Ashen Winds skull dropped by Red Ruth 5 times . That way stealing it would be an option.

    MAIN POINT: I just really wish Rare to continue to add PVP ways to earn PVE cosmetics harder for fun.

    @thorumsu I understand your point of view as I stole all my Athena's chests that way, yet there is a number of casual players that will see that as hard grind.

    A pvper in the area gets credit for boss kills especially after hitting them once.

    so if a pvper steals an event they are still getting credit even if they aren't the pver of the scenario

    same method as when tuckers get credit for shrouded ghost kills while tucking

    Ashen Lord's meat balls make it hard to tuck especially considering you have to shoot the lord once at his/her every phase. Its too late to change that now anyways.

    The point of this post is to suggest that Rare should continue adding PVP ways of getting PVE cosmetics.

    difficulty for an individual is fairly irrelevant as long as it is possible and it's possible to get the credit as a pvper stealing ashen wind events.

    overall I do think that commendations should be focused on allowing a path of achievement for both pvers and pvpers, which is mostly what exists.

    This is what I recommend. Tho, Most of the commendations are NOT built that way. I also think the PVP path should always be harder to encourage people to actually PVE for balance.

    a lot of commendations are based around turning a certain number items in which is pretty much all something a pvper can do

    seasons are based around renown and combat bumps renown so all of the seasonal rewards can be pvp'd

    There are people that only steal in this game and do alright on their commendations, takes a lot longer but there is plenty they can do playing how they do.

    I am sorry if this is a joke and I dont get it but not a skeleton ship. The ghost garrison at the end of the Legend Of The Veil (AKA. Da GiANt FoRT).

    So what im reading is you want all of them changed to (if i stole it it counts)

    There needs to be a balance, why dont you try doing some of the PVE them when a ship comes to sink you for your winds skulls the fight might have some weight and be fun.

    You know risk/reward how THIS game should be, not just logging in tucking in a boat or sailing right away to sink someone with it on board.

    Unless i am mistaken you suggestions would decimate the balance and you wouldnt be able to steal anything for skins and titles because it would just be full of tucking servers and empty boats with 30 cannonballs all sailing around aimlessly.

    We need balance my friend.

    @thorumsu or, you can do the work and participate in the game? there's never been a way to pve your way through pvp/arena, so I don't know what you're on about. if you don't play the game down the middle of pve/pvp, you're being subjective and are guaranteed to have a bad time at some point. So just do both. *edit: Your title of the post should be 'THIS is how I WANT it to be'...
