The Athena-Reaper war is a huge part of the Sea of Thieves lore. Bringing it more into the high seas could benefit player interaction which = more fun.
Some ways of doing this include:
- Adding an option for Athena emissaries to dive to a server with a Reaper. And vice versa for Reapers.
- Adding more commendations and rewards for using this system to hunt Reapers as Athena or Athena as reapers.
- Increase the rewards of an Athena emissary flag as a Reaper, and vice versa.
- As a Reaper 5, be able to see if an emissary on the map is an Athena emissary.
- Add another incentive to achieving Athena 5, such as being able to see how much loot is on a Reaper ship.
While I personally enjoy hourglass. Some people dislike how competitive it is and would rather have the Reaper vs. Athena fight to be on the high seas. This would add more opportunities for things like keg plays or tucking plays that you can’t do on hourglass.
