So I’m new to the game right. I played the tutorial and you guys claim the outpost and seaports are the safe areas am I correct? If that’s the case, why is random players sailing past and blowing my ship up and killing me and my friend while we’re trying to turn in missions. Then if that’s not bad enough. The AI ships did the same thing a few seconds ago. So fr this is just false advertising. I don’t think you know what a safe area is. It’s terrible that someone can run up and shoot me in my back while at a outpost turning in a chest and they can literally snatch it and turn it in. So fr what do you call a safe area? Private? where nothing spawns except the quest you start smh.
What do you call a safe area?
Safer seas is the only safe area, as far as other players goes. Reduced rewards for reduced risk. No other players.
There are some instanced tall tales without other players but that's just for those tall tales.
Currently high seas has no safe areas from other players.

You want Safer Seas. It's only you and your crew.
NPC's that spawn on you will hunt you down, so you need to sink them. Otherwise if you don't get too close they should leave you alone.
There are no "safe zones" in High Seas. Players can sink you wherever you are.

Nobody claimed this and whom ever said to you, was lying.
Not false advertisement since...it never advertised that way.It’s terrible that someone can run up and shoot me in my back while at a outpost turning in a chest and they can literally snatch it and turn it in.
It part of the Pvpve, Online, open world adventure game.

Make sure to click Safer Seas. But also remember, you wont encounter other players, but AI/NPC skeleton ships will still act on you if you get close. Safe from players, not Npc
Having a "safe area" doesn't make sense for this game, because if I'm hanging around at an outpost and you sail over to sell your treasure, what's to stop me from boarding your boat and taking your treasure for myself? You have to be observant and vigilant in this game I'm afraid. Never trust other players.
@wolfmanbush Currently, there is only a limit on emissaries and faction levels (up to lvl 25). They produce the same amount of gold as in the high sea
@daunclesamyt The game has always been positioned as a PIRATE game. For almost 7 years, there have been no safe zones at sea
@daunclesamyt said in What do you call a safe area?:

Safer Seas is the safest option.
The game is based on Pirates, don't trust anybody and always keep a look out for people wanting to take your loot.
I don't know how you got the impression that safe areas exist? they don't, and the game has never made that promise for High Seas, it's clear that you've misunderstood something, it happens, once came across a pirate that used to sail across the whole map because they took the name 'sanctuary' in sanctuary outpost too seriously.
The only 'safe' place in Sea of Thieves are instanced tall tales and the safer seas mode which isolates you from other people.
