So we have the ability to fill our buckets with water and puke. And both liquids have uses in combat. If we kill a shark (or possibly from fishing skill) we should be able to collect "chum" in the water and this bloody water could be tossed overboard to increase the spawn rate for sharks in a small radius to prevent or hinder boarding. This was an actual historical tactic so it would be neat to have the option in game!
Idea for potential new item: Chum Bucket

Considering the game's rating, something tells me that we won't be seeing that much blood and gore. Sorry! 😅
I think a small cloud of reddish water around a dead shark wouldn't tip the scales too far. I also with that killing a player in the water spawned sharks too.
@bran-the-ent It's not true, just an old rumor :) @m1sterpunch I like this idea way more than pulling up ladders! It would also pair well with fishing as @Bran-the-Ent said!

A very interesting idea! Perhaps, once they add fishing, we could throw dead fish in the water to attract sharks and deter boarding. A little red in the water wouldn't be too bad in terms of gore.
This is possibly a less graphic way of accomplishing the same goal. Maybe when we clean the fish you have an option to save the scraps in your bucket?
@m1sterpunch I do think it would be better to use the current bucket though instead of a new item. Just allow it to be filled with chum in addition to water and puke.

That was my logic. Plus you would lose the bait if you had to bail, and you only have one shot so it couldn't really be abused.

Could you please make correct topics? You make it sound like something like that is coming to the game. Name it "New item idea" or something like that.
Fixed. I assumed feedback and suggestions would be enough but I've updated the title to clarify this is only an idea for a new mechanic.

So bucket of puke caused by alcohol poisoning is more kid friendly than bloody fish guts? 🤔
