A wheel barrow would be so nice to load things
Wheelbarrow
@captainluke56
a wheelbarrow would actually be nice. Loading loot is one of those things that sounds chill but turns into 10 minutes of running back and forth like a delivery NPC. A wheelbarrow (or any kind of basic cargo tool) would speed things up without breaking the game, especially if it’s slow, loud, and risky to use. Plus it’d only really make sense on outposts or big islands, so it wouldn’t mess with combat balance. Mostly it’d just cut down on busywork and make selling loot less of a chore.Better if there's a limit though... 2 chests, 5 skulls, and 10 misc. Plus it's slow to move, like a brig or galleon anchor, depending on how much you put in it. More people helping to move it, the faster it goes.
The only places where wheelbarrow might be useful (where there is a significant amount of loot) are in most cases super steep like vaults (where you still have to run a lot up and down to take treasure out) and skeleton forts. I don't see how much a wheelbarrow would help here, without being a nuisance on it's own, getting stuck on every single thing in its way.
All of the mentioned places have spots where you can park your ship close and harpoon stuff. So a wheelbarrow is redundant. The only case it eventually might have some uses for is if they added more inland content - like with boar wallows. Maaaybe 1 or 2 Smugglers. Where you have enough space and roads to drag it to, as is the case on big islands.
But still, with the current content, I don't see any point in adding it.
Unless you're asking for it cuz you can't use Sovereigns in Safer Seas. 😁 And we know you reaaaally love Safer Seas, don't you Luke? One glance at your post history says enough 😅
@r3vanns As you said, harpooning and Ship location can cut this out. But also, having a wheelbarrow or other such items would allow for more in-land looting to feel less tedious, and might incentivize that content to be made more.
As of right now a Wheelbarrow would benefit players like me (Solos who have to do all the moving myself) more than others. However, that doesn't make it less of a good idea, or something to implement now to be helpful, but to truly be USEFUL in the future. Kinda puts me in the mind of a Rowboat. When they finally implemented the Smuggler hideouts I actually was happy that some of the location turn-ins really benefitted from having a rowboat with you. While this was probably more accidental than purposeful, I still consider it a net positive to have real reasons to pick up stuff like Rowboats and whatnot during your adventures.
We ARE Thieves after all. No real reason for us to turn down more ways to steal more things.

That would be entertaining to watch. Imagine one player holding a treasure chest filled with, you name it, and just sprawled inside a moving wheelbarrow.''I'll hold them off, get the loot on the ship'' Then throws the player into the water.
@shenlongkazama
Yep. So silly. But as @BurnBacon mentioned earlier, it would be nice if you can't put it on ships, at least, for balance purposes.Yes, but the treasure chest from the poor sailor thrown into the water does. Also carrying 2 small loot pieces in your hands.
