Im the only one who thinks the skeletons with guns are so annoying ? its like they have aimbot they never miss they are even capable of hitting you behind solit objects. And if 5 of them spawns around you, you are dead nothing you can do because once they get that lock on to you its insta kill, Could you please nerf the aim or atleast take away their infinite ammo cheat ? maybe give them 5 shoots and after that make them use mele. Kinda tired of doing order of souls only to get destroyed by unfair ai.Also the gold skeletons are kinda hard to solo if they spawn inland where you cannot use cannons and if there is no ammo create or gunpowder barrel it can take up to 10 minutes of you running to your ship and back just to clear one wave, Also would be cool of they drop some of the gold items you can sell since they are literaly made of that stuff

@tralalakk Don't worry, you're not alone. Many people have said the exact same thing and I think one guy even gives weekly reminders on reddit lol.
@tralalakk Really they need to do a complete AI overhaul because the present AI is not that great.
In the meantime however, I think nerfing the accuracy and giving them a limited number of bullets would suffice. After they run out of shots they can pull out a sword.

I just read: "I am playing on hard mode, but it is hard. Please nerf."

never said they should nerf the gold ones
@ant-heuser-kush Level 50 OoS skellies and legend ones are a big pain... it's respawn simulator when i do it with my crew T_T

please tell me thats a joke
@longingfern4785 yes they need nerf it, today doing legend quest on sloop 8 gold guns skeletons on top of shipwreck bay, they spawn at the end of the broken mast (the only way to go to top) just sticking your head out with being shot half(you all know that 8 as much fails 1 or 2) skeletons you're dead, only that wave took almost 30 minutes

No doubt, it's hard. My crew and I are killed by pistol skeletons as well, but just because we underestimate them. Always go in as a crew, not alone. Bring water buckets, if you can't pull them to the beach. Use gunpowder barrels.
Do you think these tools are in the game for nothing?
And doing Athena's on a sloop is not a thing I would recommend. Of cause it's much harder than doing it with four people and the reward is the same.@tralalakk No this is not... One of the reason i don't do athena voyage anymore (they got so much life, skeletons spawn like crazy, almost every wave are pistol and shotgun). This is a nightmare! OoS level 50 is tough but at least you can choose where you're gonna fight. Getting 4 golden captains at lone cove(spawn in the cimetery) in athena voyage = breaking keyboard lol

@longingfern4785 We did it between 2 people, and it was a torture, I have played a lot and almost always in sloops, and without problems less in certain islands where there is no strategy that is worth, at least in that island is just going to try to kill 1 more that is before you die, because you are going to die, there is only one place to climb to the top and there are 8 skeletons with aimbot waiting, and if you manage to climb and take cover you are shot equally, it is true of the barrels but afterwards of almost 2 hours doing missions and without barrels you go to another island to look for barrels of powder to make you just a wave, maybe they do not need a nerf, but do not spawn 8 armed with pistols in a place that is almost impossible to approach
@tralalakk I kinda gotta agree with ya. Giving them a limited number of shots just like their human counterparts would go a long way. I only get 5 shots, so should they. Additionally, where are they keeping all those bullets?! In their stomach cavity?
@whyo lol yeah that happens a lot one time they hit our gunpowder while we were going to the crow nest to put it there did not relize they can shoot that far. We both die and the ship sank
Completely agree... As if it wasn't hard enough that skeletons have aimbot and can use cannons, but who's idea was it to let them use the blunderbuss, let them block and use a charge attack? There should be a less percentage of skeletons with firearms, like on 1 of 3 uses a pistol. Take away their blunderbuss all together, or just for legendary pirates and up... and it would be cool if you could knock the cutlass out of a skeletons hand after 2 or 3 blocks, and then those are the only ones who run away!

You can find barrels everywhere. On forts, on island, on enemy ships.
If you do a OoS mission you know in advance that there will be skeletons. So don't go to the target island, if you are out of gun powder barrels.
Maybe you are lucky and there will spawn easy skeletons only, but why relying on luck and then complaining in the forums if you are out of luck? Use the tools of the game more clever!@longingfern4785 said in Skeletons:

@tralalakk sagte in Skeletons:

Yes. Are you afraid somebody could blow up your ship, while you are gone? No need to worry! Nobody needs a gun powder barrel to sink a solo sloop standing on an island. There are enough other ways to sink your sloop. The gun powder barrels will not make the difference. Only for you. Because you are prepared for hard skeleton waves.
@tralalakk sagte in Skeletons:
@longingfern4785 but that still does not solve the aimbot problem
Use cover. If there is no cover, pull them to a place with cover. Use other skeletons as cover.
If this all does not work: gunpowder barrels are no option, there is no cover, nothing you can do at all... well, then skip that mission and do a new one! I mean, how often does it happen, that nothing can be done against them? It's not worth it, to spend one hour to kill a few skeletons, which are just lucky to be in a perfect situation.
For sure, you do not need to nerf the skeletons. I am Pirate Legend and did a lot of OoS missions. 1% of the missions involve skeletons, which are really in a perfect situation, which gives you are hard time. Just cancel the mission, do a new one, if you really have no idea, how to face them.
@captainnscurvy sagte in Skeletons:
I'm happy the skeletons don't have snipers
Already confirmed to come.
There will be golden skeleton with self-regeneration and Aye of Reach. They have increased health and they recognize gunpowder barrels as a possible target to shoot at. Range will be same as canon's range.joking

Yes skip legend quest yes, of course you only need that mission to go to chapter two and you're going to cancel it, I am also a PL, and I have also done OoS missions, and those missions I canceled because it is a waste of time, and we return to the same 8 skeletons of gold with pistols and aimbot is not fair because you need 4 shots to die and they'll shoot you 8 as soon as you see them at a certain distance, through stones, wood even inside the boat
