I use sniper/pistol or sniper/blunder about 90% of the time. You know what my biggest fear is? A brig full of sword users. Or a gally with 2 sword users, a blunder user, and a blowdart user.
You have all the tools you need to combat double gunners. When I board a boat, I want to see other double gunners. The last thing I want to see is swords.
As a double gunner [mod edit], the blunderbuss was already nerfed and [mod edit] With the sword being in its prime, stop complaining and take advantage. And before you say im a pc sweat, I play on console to so there is no excuse for me sending you to the ferry. I will stop complaining about the sword when it doesnt cancel any sort of movement when you are hit by it.

Make a slot 1.
All the guns.

Sniper
Pistol
Double
Then make a slot 2
Sword
Harpoon
KnivesStop the dumb I weild two guns nonsense.
I agree with no double gunning.
Guns in one slot, the reast in the other.
So I will say one thing I don't think double gunning is an issue but I don't like the changes they've made to make double gunning excel over the years....
The sword combat was a lot better in the early years of the game compared to now. The weapon definitely has become outclass with everything else being better than using a sword
Swords can simply be walked away from anymore and the weapon has slow time to kill... infact if someone is trying to beat you with a sword you can hotswap double gun them before the sword can kill you which I do find to be a bit silly considering it makes doublegun better to use in close quarters than a sword
Blow darts are good for strategic play and hitting enemies from around corners with explosive darts and staying out of line of sight of those pesky guns which I recommend doing against double gunners by using g your environment to hide from them and nailing them when you can
Throwing knives can out dps double gun of you're good with it but a pistol snipe gunner will out range you if they are good and I do think throwing knives are a good counter for double gunners on deck combat
Overall I would say learn to get away from the sword till it gets a rebalance to combat and use the other weapons.
@goldseeker-gar Double gun is somthing that Need skill when you Bad with Double gun than a Sword can kill you but when you are good with Double gun than you can Beat the Sword
@circle-sot that use to be true by old SoT standards not by modern standards where you can manipulate that blasted aim assist they added at point blank range
This causes double gunning to be easy now and allows it to definitely dominate the close quarters fights
If you learn to spam aim the right way that aim assist basically will become an aimbot ive watched a view tutorial videos that show you how the aim assist can be abused and it definitely drops double gunning skill down a lot
And sword now requires way more understanding of spacing than it use to
@goldseeker-gar
Only console + controller players have aim assist, so that argument doesn't even apply to a huge chunk of the playerbase.

I have looked on YouTube and haven't found a single Video that is close to what you're describing.
Your whole agument is now void.
+I just saw youre an alt account.
So you're either banned or not willing to discuss with your main account.
Both unacceptable in my opinion.
@burnbacon you need proof, that the game is dying. I am go ask your dad Microsoft about it, ask if they give a single flip about you all now.
