This new server merges are the WORST . My new arch-enemy .
After Finish an Athena's Voyage lasting more than 3h due to traveling complications (Other crews trying their (un)luck) we decided to try ourselves our luck on a Ship Raid.
We Flawlessly made it!
When we were about to pick the last item from the water the server merged! That last chest got stuck on the water not possible to grab. A new raid started on us with the worst kind of Cursed ball! THE GROG
we went straight to the bottom! All items lost! :(
My friends remained there trying to avoid the treasures to go down while I got back to our new ship. I cursed the game the whole way till there.
when I arrived, we retrieved half of our previous loot to see our ship go down again.
Fortunately I had the clear though of pick everything from the water and deposit all inside the Skeleton ships. Luckily it was the last round of the Raid.
We made our way back there cursing the game and planing our action.
Not following the rules we decided to sink the captain ship first. The other ship with our Stuff had suffer quite some damage and was slow and fragile.
So we made it, the two enemy ships went down at the same time and we retake our loot back to us plus the new captain ship loot.
After that a new skull fort appeared and we cleared it as well, after defeating the crew that was there before us.
It was quite a roller-coaster of emotions.
Talking more seriously, this recent Server Merges are a NIGHTMARE!
Be Careful it can ruin your whole voyage and lead to some frustration. Thankfully we managed to turn around this and take advantage of the situation.
