Deep Sea Diving

  • Although the technology was somewhat basic, diving equipment had been around since the time of Alexander the great. I think SoT could introduce something like a diving bell to take players to the bottom of the sea. Id love to see the typical helmets but they were a bit more modern....

    This concept could be used for a number of things, tall tales, shipwreck recoveries, Hunter's call voyage and could even be the introduction of any mermaid based updates to come.

    Enemies would of course involve sharks but maybe even skeletons and sea snakes and maybe some passive bottom feeder creatures too.

  • I like the idea, except I dont really think deep sea diving "equipment", even steampunk-ish, wouldn't really fit, thematically. As in, i dont think pirates were inventors and engineering aficionados in their time.

    I'd rather see some kind of mermaid potion or curse, that gives temporary water breathing. Maybe even Harry Potter style, and you grow gills and fins... so increased swim speed, but now have to hold your breath above water.

    If none of that, I think it would be cool if you could hold cannonballs to sink fast, but have to release and lose that ball to resurface.

    My idea was something like this however I agree pirates wouldn't have the technology but it could lead to a new faction of sorts.

    Dont get me wrong, I wouldn't expect some marvelous invention, I'm thinking more an oversize barrel to hang on to and use as a air pocket on the sea bed.

    Yeah I'd love to see some mermaid curse of sorts but I dont know how far Rare could go with it before before are zipping around the seas like dolphins hahah
