Fort of the Damned

@aoitara We did work together on the insiders to test. On retail we work on owning it all.

It takes time to be able to get all 6 lanterns and a ritual skull and to kill Greymarrow, and someone doing nothing at all but trying to create "content" messes all of that up. That's completely against the pirate code. It's almost akin to griefing someone on their own boat and killing them over and over not letting them play.

Stealing loot in a well timed ambush isn't griefing just because you don't like it.

Be a good sport. Sea of Thieves is a pirate game, and stealth, stealing and battles are all part of the fun. All pirates on the seas accept that, but be a good sportsman in both victory and loss.

The Fort of the Damned is designed for player interaction - the PvE alone is not hard, and it is most certainly not the reason you're able to earn 4 of each Stronghold loot, and a Chest of Legends.

For loot like this, you should be fighting tooth and nail for it. It should be a royal pain to earn because of how rare and valuable the loot is.

There should not be limits to how and when player interaction can occur like you're suggesting... You suggest locking down the server or needing the flames to penetrate the mist...

Locking down the server would open up the potential for someone to farm this fort on a dead server. Needing the flames of fate to penetrate the mist adds an unnecessary barrier that goes against fostering player interaction.

As this game is build to be like that, and ratty pirates can come and steal you because they want... there's nothing to complain, cuz the game was made to accept thoose actions. But as an empathic person, I see it unfair and a dirty move, so If this happens in front of me, for sure I would have helped the solo slop. I've never been that kind of pirate and never will, I rather help than steal, less if I see that the enemy is just one person.

For good or bad, the game is made like that, and everyone is responsible for their actions. We can decide what our pirates do, but not the others. It's in our hands to be the pirate we want to be.

Yeeehaa!!
Spreaad the curse in the seas!!

I have group up a lot doing the FOTD, both in solo sloop, an on a galleon.

But with 10mil+ on the bank, like a lot of other PL, we dont care one bit for the loot, although it's a beautiful sight.
we had like 2 reaper an 3 stronghold kegs an Chest of legend just sitting on the dock waiting for people to take it an go sell.
we leet the "poorest" guy take the chest of legend

I was just talking with some other guys an starting up the fort again, an did some waves until they came back.

So It really depends on whos on the server.
