I think that pirate legend is really easy to achieve, some people do it in a few days, some in months. I did it on my alternate account in about 17 days, it's too easy. I feel like being a pirate legend isn't rare anymore, it's common now. If i were a developer i would raise the required reputation in every faction from 50 to 100, as it would make pirate legends stand out. There has been countless times where i would see pirate legends play like newbies, please fix this.
Pirate legend
It's fine how it is.
At the start it is a nice goal to work towards for players overwhelmed by the game's content but there should be no pressure to do anything specific in the sandbox adventure.
PL is not only a title, it is also the barrier to more (interesting) voyages and activities; therefore better when not taking ages until unlocking them.
People forget that many players play this game way more casual; they do not speed run, play every event, read all patch notes, and do not have multiple alt accounts. Let them have the experience of Pirate Legend.
