A bit more than cosmetics ?

    Hi !
    I play SoT since the launch day and the "cosmetics only" policy was the catch for a lot of us !
    BUT !
    Now there's more stuff like big swords, rapiers, more possibilities of fire/poison damage or water gameplay (PvE and PvP) and more enemies with various restiances/weakness.
    So here the point. Why don't do it with players to ? Not too much, just a bit. For exemple some % fire resistance if you are ashen cursed, or water breath, or swimming speed with a water curse.
    Rapiers are speeder but weaker, big swords are slower but stronger.
    It's already ingame with pistols, double barrels or sniper. So why not with swords ?
    Cosmetics still cosmestics, but with various gameplay styles.
    Should be a lot of work to balance weapons and curses, for sure.
    But that's my idea, what's your opinion on that ?
    (Sorry for my english, we French are known to be bad at)

    Im Hyldeon,
    Crow Captain of the Nightingale,
    And your Sea Doctor !

    If they did this.
    Newer players will suffer

    Remember since day1 there a paper on the wall that says”all are equal in the seas”
    If someone had a boost or resistance of any kind come across a new player. You be okie?

    I like the idea, I think it's coming from a really interesting angle and other games manage to do this without it being a problem for new players, that being said, I think Sea Of Thieves has tried to keep everyone as equal as possible without any level advantages so you being better or not is strictly down to your own skill with the game, which takes time and dedication to improve. Perhaps the curses could offer resistances and other things for PVE but are not consequential for player Vs player? That would give the curses more substance beyond being solely cosmetic without interfering with the competitive balance of PVP.

    We do have an abundance of clothing, ship and weapons cosmetics now and it would be good if Rare introduced other new things to chase and their is an abundance of suggestions on this forum to that end that they should take into consideration including something like this.
