Please add Cursed Ships (purchaseable curses for our ship)

  • We already have the assets in the game in terms of the ghost ship and skeleton ships being found as PvE enemies but it feels like they could be a good suggestion for the next type of goldsink that could be tied to a very high lvl for hourglass, something like 750 or higher, on the road towards golden version of curses. There is also the way that we are able to board and sail ghost ships in the Monkey Island Tall Tales, even the Jack Sparrows ship becomes golden when going through the portal at the end of those Tall Tales seems to suggest that we can have those assets available.

    When boarding any skeleton ship there are barrels and assets that suggests that we could sail them if the ship weren't under the influence of the skeletons.

    I'm aware of how this would be yet another reward locked behind the requirement for PvP which is a pain for many but it's not like Cursed Ships would be a reward that ties in anything better than rewards from Guardians or Servants. And now that we have hourglass improvements and nothing that costs huge amounts of gold it feels reasonable that they could work to have something to save up gold for. Or for those of us that already have bought everything in the stores something to use our hundreds of millions of gold for.

  • Ghost ship cosmetic for reaching level 9999 in guardians maybe.
    Translucent ship, so I can see where the players are on this ship, and when it's clear to climb up ladder. Haha.

  • @garbl
    Some kind of glow around your ship would be nice.
    Or a way to make your ship look like a skeleton ship, so you can troll players with it.

  • @garbl love the idea and with the current assets it makes sense to make one for both hg teams. Skeleton for reapers and ghost ones for guardians. But I think 500 or 750 would be a more realistic option to unlock these at(Imo)

    Exactly, makes things a bit more interesting where seeing a skeleton sloop on the horizon no longer means that it's just a PvE encounter that would be nothing to worry about. And the glow to the ships outside but keeping the inside just being colored boards so it doesn't overwhelm the graphics for some ppl's hardwares.

    Since Servants had their additional skin for reaching 500 as a skeleton curse I also thought that 750 would be the more ideal plateu for the ship curses.

  • I feel like this would only work for Skelly and ghost curses for the Boat, maybe sunken? Idk, is there any other types of curses that would look good on a boat?

  • @garbl
    That makes sense but lvl 500-750? I get it but the Grind oh the grind!

    Well we already have the ashen curse in the form of the hull you get from heart of fire

  • @ewokbuilder Come on that barely counts

  • If we could have a season that focuses on expanding on all the requirements and commendations that gave us the initial curses then I could see them adding curses to the ship that matches all the ones for our characters: Tall Tales for Golden Ship Curse, updated enemies and random variations in the shrines & treasuries for Sunken Ship Curse, HG for Skeleton/Ghost Ship curses and so on...

    It would likely be on a slightly bigger update to the game than a season that offers just one aspect like when we got the Megs and Hunter's Call. But it would be a good reward that fits both PvE and PvP oriented people and give everyone a reward that fits their playstyle depending on if their preferred player curse actually is their playstyle.

    Hopefully Ship Curses would also give devs a reason to go back and update old content instead of trying to just add new stuff in the game: once ya got all your commendations and achievements there is little to no reason doing the older content since most of the newer additions to the game is more lucrative or more fun when doing them in a full crew. For both the people that are very much a goal oriented person, an achievement-hunter or similar as well as for people that play games to not think would benefit of having added curses being obtainable for PvE and PvP. Would possibly also help those that sail exclusively on Safer Seas for their Gold Curse.

  • @raft2c7c I don't think any time is safe with someone with 10k levels lol, although iDbz isn't that good, hes just really good at naval

    “He isn’t good, he’s just really good at an essential part of the game that isn’t TDM’ing”

    Okay TDM’er let’s get you back on arena copium

  • @ewokbuilder Imagine putting on Ashen Ship Curse on a set that you would normally have on your ship. Every shipset out there would have different variants like an Ashen-Cursed Dark-Adventurer or Sunken-Cursed Wild-Rose. Much like how we can put Ghost Curse on our pirate wearing our favorite combo of clothing I can see our ships also doing something like this.
