New Voyage Idea Called "Sea Dashes"

    I don't know if Rare will make note of this, but I'm happy to give a voyage idea. I call them Sea Dashes which work similar to 1v1's but instead of fighting each other, it works like following: Both ships start at two different locations far away from each other and they each get a map with a location of a treasure. This could be a normal treasure map, a bounty, a fishing location or a cargo run. Both ships have the same aim: To get the treasure before the other ship does and bring it to an outpost. Once the treasure is on one of the ships, there is a light beam above them which is only visible to the players who are doing the voyage. The treasure cannot be buried again and the ships are still able to fight each other which means they could steal the treasure to complete the voyage for themselves. I don't quite know where they should sell or give the treasure yet and generally, there are a lot of things you could change, but feel free to do so.

    What do you guys think?

    Since pvp would be an integral part of this voyage, the loot should definitely be way better than just basic voyage items. I’m thinking maybe col value? Also what company would this be apart of? I’m thinking maybe this could be a reaper voyage due to pvp and it gives a reaper exclusive loot item. I think this is a cool idea and should definitely be explored by devs in some way shape or form. Obviously they’d put some of their own flair to it but it does seem like something they would consider.

    It's pretty much a reworked siren song.

    I do like the idea in general though.

    Now that they have cofs super high as a requirement for the commendation it would be fun to compete against another ship in a random pve adventure for a cof. I'd do it.

    If they want new players and lower hour casual players to ever get interested in the cof grind they are gonna have to bring them into adventure in a way other than just world event grinding. This would be an interesting way to do it.

    @stormzeest They tried to do something very very similar with the Skull of Siren Song voyage in S10. It worked for a while but once interest fizzled out people stopped playing. I do think it could be reworked into something more similar to Hourglass though, where you're guaranteed competition. They could even extend that to the BB and have it so crews can dive to it, but two crews are always fighting over it. However with the BB there is a lot more to do after the initial fight which makes it not work well with that.
