Amount of rep for Legend.

@skaary27 I hope this is true, because that's a relief. I don't see myself wanting to do anything else than gold hoarders missions, as digging for treasure is my slice of pie. Any source on this info?

@oneeyedkillah I suppose getting it to a certain level is fine, but not too high for all 3. As a solo player i can forsee it getting hard to do shipments of 8 different things at a time for the traders, unless it's a turn-in-on-dock kind of thing.

@clumsy-george I am very aware. I didn't mean wasting my time in the way you're thinking, i mean having fun working towards one goal, but then it turns out that goal was actually wrong, E.G working towards 50 rep with gold hoarders, if you only need 25 with each company. You get me? I'll have fun, I just wanna have fun while moving in the right direction.

I would also hope they would give us a choice. Say, either 30 with all three, 50 with two of them, or like max (Say, 100?) with one, so it keeps the freedom aspect and lets you choose your way of becoming pirate legend. They've said getting treasure is a big part of it, so i'd suppose they'll let players dedicated to only gold hoarders, traders, order, etc. Let everyone get legend their respective ways.

@skaary27 I think that mostly means you physically wasn't able to become pirate legend. If it was the fact that noone had the time to, i think they'd word it like ''But noone was able to'' instead of ''noone could'', could, in this case meaning physically not able to.

@skaary27 It's alright. We never know, they may be saying ''ONE'' of the games 3 companies. You don't always word things the way you want too. I've read that article, and every other article from dec. 14-15 and feb. 13-15, lol. I really hope they'll stick to their promise of freedom, and let us choose.

@xcalypt0x We've seen atleast 30 in promotional footage, more specifically the 14th of dec. livestream i think.

@TheJolirouge Nice dead meme.

@capt-player I would expect that you need to level each faction and probably max them all out. How can you be a pirate legend if 2/3 of the factions don't know you at all.

But to your point of playing as you wish... no one is forcing you to become a pirate legend. You could choose that you just enjoy sailing and digging up treasure. If you want to do legendary quests you can join someone's party who does get legend. You're not locked out of the content, but there has to be some incentive for people to play who want goals to achieve. Kind of like in RL you can choose to do whatever you want, but there will be limitations based on what you do for work.

@papasohan I know it's silly expecting you to not have to do much work.

I'm not saying it should be easy, i'm all on-board for it to be super hard, i just think it should be so hard that you can't have fun on the way there if you play a specific way. I've made another thread covering some of these things. My biggest concern is that it will be impossible for solo players to get the rank. (Don't get me wrong, i'm not asking for them to change the game to work for solo-players, i'm just suggesting something.) In some of the promotional footage we've seen that f.ex. the traders will have you transport up to like 8 items at a time, and when you can only cash in 8 at a time, and on f.ex. dragontooth, the turn-ins are so far in on the island, it's gonna be a struggle turning in every item. Or with the order, where you would have to walk back an forth a whole bunch if you say, kill 3 skeleton-lords in the middle of an island. I'm proposing that they atleast add a seperate list of quests for sloops and galleons, or something along those lines. Not simply for solo-players, but for the different size crews, being 1-2 and 3-4. because it's gonna be way easier for a 4 man crew to transport 10 cages of animals, than it's gonna be for a 1 man player. I have fun playing, and i'm gonna have fun no matter how grueling the road there will be, but if there was a possibility of there being a slightly more fun way to play, i would take it. I know there's no need to reach pirate legend, but i think it's dumb that a solo-player should be punished in the way that they can't get pirate legend, or it's gonna take ages due to transporting or skull quests, JUST because they like to play solo.

Edit: As a response to the level cap, i'm not saying it's gonna be 30, i'm just saying the highest number we've seen so far is 30, and the voyages looked pretty pristine at that point.

More specifically, what i'm hoping is that they atleast answer wether or not we'll get answers.

@capt-player I can't speak for the other factions or the higher level quests, but in the beta, even if you had a voyage which required digging up three chests, you could still do 1 at a time, turn it in, and then do the others the same way. And if 1 or 2 of your three chests gets stolen, you still get partial credit for the ones you do turn in. Granted, that might change at higher levels, but solo play should still be possible. However, Rare is doing everything they can to make this a Multiplayer game, so solo play is, almost by definition, going to be much harder and less efficient... but not necessarily less fun if that's how you like to play.

@papasohan I know, but i'm more referring to the traders quests where you need to deliver like 8 items by a certain time, doing 1 at a time would be counter-productive.

@pdt-mindstream That's whats bothering me. We don't know if it's possible, but there were levels missing, or wahetever. But, no matter, i'm gonna have to find a crew to play with to do the trade missions anyway, might aswell get on it.

@pdt-mindstream I suppose it won't be hard to figure out, i just hope they don't send us on wildly obscure paths to unlock the endgame content, like needing us to get 17 rep with gold hoarders, then hold your lantern at 11:57pm on Devil's ridge shouting ''BOOTY'' in VC.

I don't want the rank for fame, i want it for the supposedly challenging legendary voyages.
