Voyage Help Archive

  • Sharon said to go to 2 other outposts to get more sails I can’t remember the outposts she said can anyone that remembers help please?

  • The full message that I get:

    Sea of Thieves failed to setup a crew session. Please try again.
    (Coarsebeard)

    When I look at the FAQ regarding the error "beard" types, Coarsebeard isn't even there. what gives?

  • Will the new items become unavailable for purchase later on? Should I grind them asap?


  • From what I've found is that the team have been working on this for 4 months but I just started today and I can't get in even after closing and opening again I don't know if it's a bug or if it's my internet but when I load in it says, "searching the seas" until it times out. This better be fixed soon because I can't get a refund on this.![alt text](image url)

  • Seriously... The ingame invite doesn't really work, and even when we use the XBox App, it is hit or miss.

    Questions:

    1. Do your friends need to be at the main menu to be invited?

    2. If they are already your friends, can they just choose the galleon and start up to be put in your ship?

    3. Does the XBox party even translate ingame? Seems it doesn't. We make a party by inviting everyone, and it seems to have no effect on the outcome of trying to join or be invited to join a game.

    4. Any plans from Rare to set up a RELIABLE way to get your friends on your ship and in your game? Leaving this "as is" where people have a difficult time inviting friends is a major pain in the rear-end.

    Does anyone have any tips to make this happen reliably?

    When we all log on, we don't want to spend a half hour messing around sending invites, seeing that they weren't sent, or nobody gets notification of an invite, or having to change who hosts the game in order to get this to work.
    Sometimes, it's easy. You just join your friend's game and you're off. Other times... You keep alt-tabbing back and forth while dodging skellies or other player contact and it MIGHT work.

    Any help or info would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • I have not done all that many skull forts - something between 10 and 20, maybe. I am pretty sure I have done each of three possible forts at least once.

    I was told that the best place to park your ship was nestled between the largest towers where the skellies could not fire at your ship, but could still fire at other approaching vessels.

    However, yesterday, it seemed there was always a low cannon on the main island, covering that "safe" position between the towers. Is that new, or have I simply not noticed it before?

  • The wiki says it should be available at the Ancient Spire and Plunder Outposts.

    Sovereign Jacket | Sea of Thieves Wiki | Fandom

    The Sovereign Jacket is a is a clothing item in Sea of Thieves. Jackets can be purchased from the General Clothing Shop on Outposts. Boasts nearly as many features as the boasting you'll be doing...

    I'm only able to find the Majestic one.


  • You know the feeling: Waking up in the corner of a strange tavern, with your head hurting and senses cloudy.

    You ask yourself, "What was in that grog that I drank last night?"

    "Where, in the Sea of Thieves, am I? What outpost is this?"

    What Pub is This?

  • Had a nice fellow come and place an Athena quest on my sloop the other day. Grinded through the whole thing and upon receiving my map for the chest of legends at (Sailors Bounty) the game notified me that the server would shut down in 30 minutes! I sailed from the vicinity of Ancient Spire ALL THE WAY to Sailors Bounty in gale force head winds. I dig up the chest. I point toward Sanctuary... "The server will shut down in 1 minute" Standing on the front of my sloop with Legend Chest in hand. Screen goes dark. Sadness of the deepest sort sets in... All that hard work. ZERO Athena rep... help? Thanks in advance!


  • Yer brand new update isnae workin'. Any idea when it'll be up and running again?


  • What time does the sunken curse end today. Or has it ended already. I'm about 5 mermaids short on each colour. I haven't played it much during this event as my wife had a baby. To be so close to getting 75 doubloons only to let them slip through my fingers is almost as bad as that feeling when you solo a skull fort only for a galleon to show up right before the final wave and sink your ship.

  • It says to smugglers bay you may be bound, in search of fortune in the ground the chest is close at the remains of the treasure seeker near the south west shores, but you’re not done, dig 6 paces east grab it and run


  • Having trouble with the riddle I've received it says something along the lines of "go to the eagles peak west and then heed, reading this map is all you'll need" I've seen others have different riddles or some are bugged, tried everything :/

  • I've been searching for awhile now and haven't found a single statue..I only need 17 more but I was led to believe the event ends on the 25th. Am I just getting mega unlucky or did they disable it or maybe a bug?


  • So... do $10,000 swords work better than the stock cutlass we start with? How about all of the other weapons we can buy ingame?

    Or is it just cosmetic?

    I am hoping not.

    Also, why is this game not on Steam?!? They really need to strike a deal there, because a lot of players feel like they need to stay with one game vendor and we're missing out on extra players.

  • Hi, my game is crashing in random times after I get into the game, either in the menu or in-game. Sometimes it takes 30 minutes, 40 minutes, 15, it's a Russian roulette. I never know when I'm going to lose my loot. I bought the game recently and I'm pretty upset about it.

    I've tried all sorts of instructions, such as:

    • Updating the driver version (currently it's on Radeon ADM 18.7.1)

    • Turn off Shader Cache in AMD settings (Radeon Settings -> Click on Gaming -> Global Settings ->Turn off Shader Cache)

    • Turned off vsync in SoT graphic settings

    • Turned lightning detail down to cursed in SoT settings

    My specs:

    Processor
    AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor

    Video Card
    AMD Radeon R7 200 Series (260X)

    RAM
    8.0 GB

    Operating System
    Microsoft Windows 10 (build 17134), 64-bit

    This does not happen with any other game. Please help me!

  • Hey everyone! So I'm aware that the Bilge Rat Adventure, Sunken Curse, goes away on Wednesday.. I wanted to see if anyone would like to team up and crush a few statues with me before this event ends. I'm aiming for that 50 doubloon mark and don't have much more to go, but I could really use the help. If any of you brave adventurers or pirate out there would like to join, or could use any assistance just add me from my gamertag. :)
    See you guys out there!

  • I have a rather perplexing issue with my account concerning Gold Hoarders. I can cycle through a handful of missions and each time I'll get 1 voyage maybe 2. When one of those voyages is an X marks the spot it's always just 1 X and that's it. I have yet to have my voyage wheel have more than 2 missions yet other friends of mine that are legends or level 50 on Gold Hoarders routinely fill their wheel up with voyages each time they lay one down and their X marks the spot usually has 3 or more spots to dig each time. Please look into this Rare. I was going to create a support ticket but I can't find a link to do so.


  • Why does my ship’s customization reset every time I play the game? Is it part of the game or is there a setting that keeps this from happening?

  • I haven't played SoT in a while now and I was wondering if they've "fixed" the respawns during naval warfares near skull forts. I used to hate how those battles would go on forever until one crew simply gives up out of boredom. It was all because of sunked ships spawning with their crews on nearby islands and getting back into the fight in minutes. Have they changed anything or is that still an issue?

  • "alt

    The Hungering Deep is here, the first of Sea of Thieves' free content updates! A range of permanent new game features are rising from the depths, introduced by a special time-limited campaign.

    Need some help? Use this thread to work with your fellow pirates to uncover what lies beneath!



    Looking For Crew?

    We've got a bunch of places you can visit to seek out like-minded pirates, so sail on over to these official Sea of Thieves hangouts:


    As you participate in this thread, keep to the Pirate Code and the Forum Rules!

  • La verdad es que el juego está muy bien y la suerte es que se puede mejorar infinitamente una idea sería echar un vistazo al assassin's Creed black flag porque yo estuve horas y horas navegando estaba muy bien y seguro que se puede sacar algo de el para el sea of thieves ....

  • I love Sea of Thieves and was so excited to play the Hungering Deep content. I finally got on with my brother last night and worked through all the initial quests.

    SPOILERS AHOY

    However we were very frustrated to find that in the end we need to somehow team up with 3 other people, and in the world of Sea of Thieves that is extremely rare.

    The speaking trumpet doesn't help, because even though we've tried multiple times moving from Party to Game chat resulted in us unable to hear each other, let alone anyone else. We fooled with settings to no avail.

    Then everytime we head to Merric to see if anyone wants to team up there are ships there that are only interested in killing us.

    Asking for help on here or in looking for group doesn't help either, as even though I can get a 4 man crew together I have to work with someone else for the 5th, and you can't meet someone in game, because there is no guarantee you'll end up in the same server.

    Setting aside the other numerous issues with this new content, my question is how am I supposed to complete it? How did others do so without being able to set up a meet online AND in game chat not functioning?

    We only have two weeks to complete this and this is looking less likely by the minute. I find my enthusiasm for the game, and upcoming expansions, greatly diminished.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I know that there have currently been 3 ways to earn the doubloons (thrones, gunpowder skellies and cursed statues), each part of a special event that lasts / lasted for a limited time. My question is: Can I still earn doubloons by killing the gunpowder skellies, or is that event completely closed now? I've been looking for statues and sometimes I come across gunpowder skellies. Makes me wonder if it's still worth the trouble of grouping them up and blasting them to bits.

    I'm not crazy about the limited edition items, but I like earning some money with these quests while sailing solo. :) If you're just sailing around, looking for statues, you've kind of got nothing to lose which is more relaxing imo. ^^

    Also, if it's indeed the case that the skellies still count, another question is: are the thrones still up?

    Thanks!

  • Figured I would create a topic here to help people getting started or who might be starting their search soon.

    1)They seem to be scattered randomly around islands/uncharted islands with a cap at 3 statues per island (from what I have seen thus far). They also have an audio cue to help locate them.

    2)*Sapphire and Emerald statues are soloable, the Ruby statues are duoable they just take a bit longer.

    3) Sword+Blunderbuss seems to have the best initial dmg output and there is a sweet spot you can find with your sword where the statue can't damage you, but you can damage it.

    4)I have found statues at N10/K14/Cannon Cove/Lagoon of Whispers before I had to leave for work

  • Hello everyone, I’m here to help anyone with anything in game (unless I’m sailing with a crew already)
    It doesn’t matter if you need help with Gold hoarders, Order of Souls, Merchant Alliance or even Athena’s. Just send me a message on the forums or on xbox (gamertag: Deac977)
    And I’ll be sure to try and help. Have a nice day :)


  • Ayer tuvo un bug el juego y mi barco salio volando y luego el juego me llevo a la pantalla de inicio....llevaba horas atesorando cosas en mi barco....sabéis si me compensarán de alguna manera?

  • Are you still able to complete the skeleton thrones?


  • Does Meg only eat ships? I fell in the water while dancing with her last week, our cheeks brushed, but she left me to be devoured by her little sisters. Do I stink that badly?

  • Im 70% Solo Gamer, are you able to complete the Voyage Solo or is it very very hard?

  • "Find the Eagle Hunter high to the East no turning back, when this is done then read this map."

    This is the third time I did this riddle and despite being at the rock engraving of the eagle hunter, or the eagle cages nearby, or even the eagle statue slightly lower on the hill, I have never been able to trigger the next part of the riddle. I'd upload images but don't know how here. This riddle requires me to read the map at the location which I have been reading while walking all around. Anyone else having this issue? Like I said, this has happened now for the third time for only this particular riddle, all other riddles I have had no problems. Thanks!


  • So this is about sloops. A great little boat that's easy to pilot, maintain, and get knocked off of. Was sailing solo when a duo crew decided they weren't going to give up the chase, so I turned around and gave them a round of cannon fire. A decent long fight went on for about 20 mins, until the fools rammed my ship and jumped off theirs. One of the two exceptionally bright bulbs jumped clear over my ship, hope he became shark or kraken food. The second landed and I ran up to give him a taste of blunderbuss, but he was still going after a solid hit. Swords it was then, I blocked a few of his attacks and lunged, he recovered and jumped over my anchor, outside of where I'm swinging the cutlass like a madman. I move over to finish him, but he gets me with a lunge and sends me flying off my great-in-spirit-not-in-size vessel. Now I can take a loss, and as far as losses go this one didn't even sting. The only treasure in the boat was a foul skull, disgraced skull, and 2 seafarers chests from a shipwreck so whoop-de-doo. What I didn't like was how I lost it. I really feel I outperformed the other sloop, I knocked them off their boat multiple times just with cannon fire, I killed both of them during a previous boarding attempt, but one hit from them cost me the fight? Not even that hit! As I floundered about in the water, a merman swam up to help me.... After about 1:30m. The screen went black, about another 20 seconds later I was dropped into the ocean where my boat had just sunk. Literally seconds away from saving it. Funny thing is, the other crew was splashing in the water looking for merpeople too, so I'm assuming they lost their boat in their poorly-devised boarding attempt. I guess the great moral of this too-long tale is Rare please please please make it harder to fall off the sloops in combat. Or at least have mermaids arrive to help before the ship gets 3 miles away, filling with water the whole while.

  • Has anyone else had their pirates model appearance change recently or in the past?

    Last night my wife's characters model is different than today's; the hair color and face structure has changed since yesterday. I cannot speak towards smaller details until I find old images with her model in them and compare them to the changed look.

    But the issue is plain and obvious, we're not hallucinating.

    Yes, I appreciate the likely : Submit a bug report comments. Got it... thanks. I am simply wondering if this is a known issue I missed somewhere or if unspoken, have others encountered it?


  • Hello guys

    I found the island, but for the next part i m going crazy like really crazy.

    " They'll not find the cave mouth looking to the north west sea my captain scoffed, nut should you do hold the lantern aloft "

    If someone can help me thx you

  • Newb here. Just a few questions.

    Just started playing a few days ago. Died many times and spawned back, but seem to have lost my history. My achievements. First time I lost my clothes and had to start from scratch and redress my pirate guy. What do I get to keep and what do I lose when I die? There doesn't seem to be any save game option. Also, starting out I play solo, but each time I die, and respawn, my option to go solo changes back to matching me with a crewmate. Since I'm starting out I'd rather learn the ropes, then once I feel competent at the basics, then I'll start looking for crew. But the game doesn't seem to want me to play solo. Also, I lose my missions and start it seems randomly in other places, completely different to where I started before...

    Can anyone explain what's happening and how this works? I'm kinda confused. Thanks in advance.
