    I just got back by my newest "adventure" and now i'm sure, we need of a new career to, if possible, improve the game and it's players experience.
    The Marine!

    I'm asking this because i feel that both players and Devs are enjoying a lot the "Sea Police" gamestyle shown by several players and awesome youtubers. If you missed it see a funny example here:

    Class/career /quest line Focus description:
    The Marine will bring balance and order over the seas. marine Ships will have to run escort voyages, apprehend dangerous and nasty pirates.

    Clothes/Items/other stuff
    I see specific NPCs, barracks, Ship items and hull styles to let them be recognizable and feared. Some of the Navy cloths style is already implemented...so the style direction is already set.

    Player Interactions:
    The interaction with other players (other classes) could be player driven...Example:
    Merchants are ready for a voyage and they want to feel safer. They can request (NPC on Outpost) a marine escort for their ship in exchange for some money. Also this can be triggered by specific emergency Bengala.
    Or unhappy robbed/killed treasure hunters/Merchants can request the Marine to post a wanted sign to apprehend the Pirate and try to retrive their stuff (money).

    Quest Examples:
    Escort merchants on x voyages
    Escort treasure hunters on x voyages
    Apprehend/kill Mr xyz guilty of...

    How to activate:
    as i said i see this carrer as a possible endgame questline like Pirate Legend. So at usual level 50 we can choose to run quests for one or the other.

    Ships:
    I hope there will be 2 endgame Ships, one for Marine and 1 for PirateLegends. So the real best players of our seas will be recognized and properly feared allover the seas.
    New ships difference:
    Marine will be bigger, tough and slower ..instead Pirate legend ship will be faster and sneaky and properly weaponized.

    Thanks for your time, as usual this is just a suggestion/feedback and i hope to see it ingame in the future ;)

    Nice ideas, Hopefully Rare will consider ideas like this.
    Until then, I am a apart of a Royal Navy Roleplay Discord group where we attempt to recreate the era for Sailors who took up the Kings shilling. We have a Rank system, Uniforms and engagement methods which we try to keep as authentic as we can within the game. While also being friendly and welcoming of new and experienced players.
    Overall we are quite casual but if you were interested in the Royal Navy and keeping order on the high seas then you should consider our group.

    @Ciotta Some neat ideas for sure! I think that a method of creating a division between sailing as the navy or under the skull and crossbones with different incentives would add some much needed depth to the pvp aspect of the game.

    @Fuffud That's really cool that your Discord has essentially created its own faction! One day we may find ourselves crossing swords mate as me crew and I do not take kindly to the Royal Navy meddling in our affairs on the seas... ≥=)

    @ciotta nice suggestion! Although i don't agree with the different ship for PL only.
    Rare stated, there won't be any difference between a new player and a PL based on equipment or special skills / weapons. It all depends on experience and user skill so everybody can have a fair chance.
    Ofcourse, they could have changed their minds by now..
