Hourglass request

  • Dear readers of the amazing Sea of Thieves!

    I’d love to make a request about hourglass battle. As a solo player, I’m trying to get the commendation: “Athena, strike” (requires earning an Allegiance Streak of 10 for The Guardians of Fortune) And eventually for the other faction too. But at my 6th battle I faced a Brigantine. I stood no chance against 3 people. My request is, when a battle has found, you can see against which type ship and that you get a choice to skip/prospone the battle for the next? If possible? I think many would appreciate. Other than that I am very happy with the game and thank you for all the hard work!

    After the 4th win you get another option on your quest table / war map - to fight bigger crews/ships. Beware what option you choose !!

  • When you reach champion status, you have the option to pick to dive to a battle with a bigger ship or a ship the same size as you, there is really no need for this addition.

  • when a battle has found, you can see against which type ship and that you get a choice to skip/prospone the battle for the next

    I can see this becoming another time waste. Nobody likes to waste time.

    Thank you for your reply!
    Ow I didn’t notice about that!
    Thank you for the heads up, I’ll pay attention next time

  • They seriously need to just get rid of the "punch up" option. Nobody intentionally uses it and when people accidentally use it they're confused and make posts thinking the game is wildly broken/imbalanced.

    It serves no purpose. Get rid of it, Rare.

  • @thedrakyle

    Thank you I didn’t even know about that
    I’m quite new to HG
    Good to know!

    As is, agree.
    But they could do something with it - first off, being another click - "warning, you are ...", before you actually punch up.
    Secondly, being increased rewards for punching up (and being victorious).

  • @jeroenig045 specifically, figbt larger crew is by selecting on the right side of war map. So ensure you're on the left when wanting to dive. Great job getting such a high streak as a new player though

  • @hiradc

    I see thank you for the clear explanation.
    Thank you, however I’m not new to SoT
    I got 535 hours, but I never did hourglass fights, I’m not that good at combat in this game.
    I’m pretty happy with the streak though :D

  • @sweetsandman people do use it sometimes and it can be fun

    I think there shouldn’t be a streak requirement at all, it’s a fun option, just sucks that you need to be champ first
