Hey all,
I’ve just been thinking of a concept lately that I think is cool so I’ll outline it below. I do apologise in advance as I will probably type a bit.
Context:
- Since the start of the game their have been number of players reach pirate legend or even PL10. (Hence the rise of legends title).
- with the newly discovered rise of flame heart from the seabound soul tall tale the Pirate Lord has been been weary of the evil that is coming to the sea of thieves therefor has been working with the bilge rats and new legends to prepare for the future.
Content:
-
New legend ghost NPCs (possibly immortalise popular pirates such as captain falcore) and legend strongholds have been built in the 4 major areas in the sea of thieves (shores of plenty, ancient isles, the wilds, and the devils roar), can be built on existing rock formations possibly. These strongholds can only be entered through the front door by playing the legend shanty so you just be a legend.
-
pirate legend strongholds won’t have access to typical Athena voyages at the locations but rather the new voyages and also be able to purchase all legend cosmetics, also have muck around features like harpoons on the outside of the stronghold.
-
New pirate legend voyages; these could include the collection of Athena trinkets or Athena treasures with associated commendations/cosmetics.
-
New enemies; during these said voyages they can spawn corrupted ghosts (new legends that have fallen to flame hearts rise), attack styles at this point can be left to the imagination. Or corrupt merfolk who have been angered by the theft of their precious gems over the last few months. (These can attack all pirates not just legends since they might emerge in the wild)
This could lead to a new emergent event where merfolk climb aboard your ship and you need to fend them off. -
New curse; legendary ghost, a partial or complete ghosted pirate for P10 legends.
-
An accessible ship entrance to the pirate legend hideout / ship exit from the pirate legend hideout. I’m sure this would be hard to implement due to many things. But there could be designated stone arches formed at each outpost. The crew need to play the pirate legend shanty to enter (all loot being immediately forfeit upon entry, leaving your loot in the sea at a blank empty archway for any chasers to take), upon exit all crew members just need to toss their daggers (like a voyage) at the legends shipwright to emerge at the arch you initially entered at.
Further notes could be that if there is any combat detected you cannot enter the arch. -
finally ghosted pets which can be bought with doubloons from the new Athena voyages and new variations on the ghost ship cosmetics.
I could go on forever and sadly I feel like due to the size of the post already not many will bother to read it haha they are only ideas of course and I fully expect not many people liking the ideas I presented, just thought I’d share :)
