- The Dangers of Playing SOLO in Sea of Thieves
Playing Solo in Sea of Thieves always comes at a risk, especially when you raise the Emissary Flag to Athena's Fortune. In this short story, I tell the tale of how I almost lost everything as a result of a PvP ambush. Enjoy!

Really cool to see stories like this, too short for a video and too good to throw away, be turned into YT Shorts.
Thats the intention behind shorts... 💀
@@saltyfish7626 no I meant that its nice to see stories like this not get thrown away by cliff.
Do u mean
It's really cool to "SEA" stories like this?
Get it sea and see😅
I don’t understand how you make YT Shorts as entertaining as your full-length videos.
I just tried to see if I can do the same thing but shorter to see how people liked it :P
@@CliffTheStoryGuy I think you succeeded!
@@CliffTheStoryGuy it is really good
@@CliffTheStoryGuyamazing gameplay and storytelling in only one minute
I love the guy's attitude, too. After you got him, he complimented you and gave some GGs. Always love it when a pirate has some respect.
what is not GG is them always boarding you. like i get for the anchor but staying there and spawn killing you instead of an honest ship on ship fight
@@nickkozak4763 there is no honor among thieves. My attitude towards this game is "ya win some, ya lose some."
@@nickkozak4763 we arent playing straight laced British navy men, we are playing as lawless pirates with no holds barred💀
@@SmoovyNovaFan yup2, the rules literally printed beside the door of outpost.
@@farrel_ra barely anyone cares cause you not getting banned if you break any of those rules
if you ever see a rowboater, they are never salty about dieing
Yep. Takes a special kinda person to make a "you only get one shot at this" kind of play.
Bro i get terrible anxiety being in a rowboat away from my ship all i can think of is what it would be like in real life to be out in the middle of the ocean like that 😂
@@jericlove4953 I travelled like all the devil's Roar running away from kraken's fall running from a BEEG Ship...they sunk my ship but I did manage to sell my loot thanks to the rowboat and my friend who did a 1vs4
Rowboats are cool
Every pirate is salty when they die 😂
@@jericlove4953 when solo I jist accept first contacts gonna means a restart usually. (My head like a urbanmech of battletech I will see you and I got enough skill to avoid you) but what pisses me off is freasbly spawning like not even gottin to the sea, just getting shot and sunk. That's the one event that will make me change servers faster then a dying server. As dying/dead servers are nice for a bit of quick fishin or small gold grab. Most of my wants are the curses but I got a bit to go.
Finally, a GOOD youtube short!!
Thank you, Cliff, someone finally uses this feature as intended!
Wdym “finally someone uses this feature as intended” I’ve seen hundreds of people use TH-cam shorts “as intended”
@@josephmarshall9410I’ve seen a lot of weird comments like this here about this being such a great “short” from ghost accounts and bots. I thought it was a strange thing to say too
I have multiple stories of me solo slooping and surprisingly not being sunk on sight just because i did FoF alone or something. Just yesterday i had a fully stacked Brig tuck on an FoF i had been doing after collecting a few Disney Sticks and some resources, and what came of it, they respected me for doing it alone, so they left me all the non athena loot and helped me out with putting it on my boat, i could also tell these guys were seasoned players as two of them had the PL curse and one had the gold curse. I love the game for the amount of actual chill encounters i have had.
Back when i started playing the game at the beginning of the year, i had to level up my order of souls standing (i liked their aesthetic so i wanted their ship set the most), so i went with their emissary, and surprisingly enough, i was helped out on an FoF by 2 level 5 reaper emissaries, a brig and a sloop, they let me keep all the non athena skulls, and we all chilled for a bit and explored the map. Which was really nice of them. I was also a very sore loser back then, but now i am much more used to getting killed and outplayed by others, so i am being much more of a good sport about it nowadays. The game has this aura about itself that almost no other game can recreate. I love this game a lot. *(And yes i know not everyone is that chill, I've seen my fair share of asshole players, most of which are small kids, or r×cist idiots)* I love (most of) the encounters i had with other players.
A good day at sea. Generally I find no action or the light good combat. Only once did I run into pure asstown levels of assholes. Sunk me at the docks. Like buddy ya got a rage but be warned someones gonna make you eat shit for this tactic.
I love it when people have good attitudes like this, and aren’t a 12 year old who curses you and your entire family.
Awe cry about it u senstive baby. Bring back bullying!
Everyone should be like him
Not being an ass when losing to someone
Yes, agreed.
Dude, I just started 2 weeks ago. Some guy killed me on my ship and proceeded to spawn camp me and trash talking. I was like “dude I’m new chill” and he said “idc loser@
@aminosaur8079 this why I just quit. This game is the most toxic solo experience in gaming history.
@@saltydrunkard lol nah mordhau takes the cake there
@@saltydrunkardSea of Thieves is REALLY unbalanced.
The most underrated TH-camr in TH-cam history, playing the most underrated game in history. Very nice.
As someone who has watched your full length videos for quite long time I am loving these new shorts. Keep ‘‘em coming
I find if you're working on Athena quests solo, Either Voyages into the Sea or in the Roar are a lot safer for the time as you won't have to worry about anyone trying to make a steal on your hard work. You don't get as much loot but it's better safe then sorry.
Devil’s roar solo is so painful
@@unknown_4176it can be but mea regines only that's the canos them selves.
nice short, exited for the next stream or vid!!
What I hate about sea of thieves is that it's hard to go on the grind solo and or casually, but the griefers being nice after destroying your ship is a bonus
You are such a creative TH-camr! Thanks for all of the quality vids!
The guy seemed so nice too! Finally a pirate who shows some respect ❤
A non-toxic tucklord?! One in a million
Good thing your discord (link in his description) helps me find someone to play with in minutes!
Hello, great way to pass the time while my crew is away
Such a relatable youtuber, love your content.
Same exact thing has happened to me, although I didn’t have such as happy an ending
You have to remember you're not just looking for ships approaching you're looking for ships acting iffy if it looks like someone's just sitting at a distance waiting for you they might just be waiting for you so you should definitely be more wary
Last time I was out solo I saw a brig just sitting out a half an island away from me for no apparent reason.
You can bet I finished what I was doing and scooted.
I've caught people trying to swim kegs to me when I was collecting loot from a siren shrine as well.
I scoot as soon as I can see a ship cleanly on the horizion and not jist a mast. Also I do turn all but my map light off. Seams to still be really effective at keeping pvp jumpers at bay.
A camper that isn't toxic?!!
Miracles happen
Gigachad final words, absolutely love when someone's respectful during PvP like that
This is the most casual sea of thieves video I’ve ever seen
That is one of the nicest people I've ever seen in sea of thieves
Thanks for the awesome short and great content!
Didn’t expect the nice attitude near the end, hearing GGs in this game is a cherished moment
I had this happen twice on one day when I just wanted to do some casual treasure hunts. I got on the island, turned around and see my empty ship sail away before I get a chance to even start a quest. That stopped my enjoyment of the game quickly.
I was playing solo, reaper. Mainly for the gold bonus as I was doing a gold run for future supplies (hourglass). I JUST got grade V and was about to sell and quit, when I got killed (BY A GUY WITHOUT A SHIP) and his teammate came up and shot my ship while I had to repair, put out the flames, bail, and fight off the borders AND return fire. Almost got away but a lucky cannon shot brought down my mask. From that point, it was over.
I was just doing the gilded gold hoarder voyage for the weekend, did all but two islands, then got merged into a server with two grade 5 reapers who both immediately started beelining to me. One was a brig, the other a galleon, so I was able to sell nothing :)
That person seems so familiar, a while ago me and 2 of my friends in Sea of Thieves were hiding the ship and all 3 of us just started swimming towards someone doing the FOTD, although it wasn't you It's still a kind-of similiar scenario. Their voice is also very similiar, or atleast the guy and my friend's.
Now this was an entertaining short!
I once just went everywhere with just a rowboat .... yes it took very very long but you would be surprised how much loot you will be able to sneak away with
Love your content
Keep making the best quality videos please
Love u all
Going solo can be overwhelming, especially pvp on ships. The advantage of having at least 1 other person with you is that u can divide jobs. For example: if u have 3 players, 1 can steer the ship, 1 can fire the cannons, and the last one can do repairs. Solo it all falls on to you.
Nautical PvP for solo you have three options:
1. Run away.
2. Fight, and mor likely then not run into a rock
3. Accept your fate
"someone coming at me without a ship" this the reason why i swim for miles with kegs, my favorite pass time is waiting on an island with a keg intercepting people
As a solo who has done this multiple times, I can confirm this is pretty accurate. I usually leave the this floor thoifh and just grab the Athena items, I am already 75 in gold hoards and don’t want to head to reapers
Edit:75 was 59
The stress I get playing by myself. I can’t even fish in peace. Looking around my back soon as I finish reeling in.
I love your shorts!
Only you could take a feature like this and make it feel like we’re watching a whole 10-minute Sea of Tales story
I've been solo-slooping since day 1... this has happened a few times, especially after they added those "hide" emotes.
Tips for legend of the veil. Just do the shipwrecks. You can force one by spamming the veil voyage and checking the book to see if the first thing you get is a shipwreck
I love having fights like this where the players are good natured and the encounter is unique.
I’m so glad they changed the harpoons to snag loot way faster
W cliff story guy 👑
I am a solo slooper for a long time but the reason why I do multiplayer crew rarely is because the people I find are not english
Love it!
This dudes his own genre of sea of thieves
As someone who doesn't have any one to play with. Yeah solo sloop Is tough
Cliff you are one of the best sea of thieves TH-camrs
I love when enemies compliment
Finally a short video by cliff 😆
I love riding solo. The peace you get if no one messes with you is great and I personally had fun with other ships on the seas when they noticed Im just a solo player. Plus, the times where I kill other crews on my own is the best feeling
That guy clearly follows the pirate code
Thats a nice battle. You didnt give up, and he takes it in a good way that he lost
truthfully i to me the enjoyment of sea of thieves is playing with friends
This is pog video, as well as I don’t have the game this is still cool.
He did a rowboat play, nice...
Good to see both a solo AND tucker player not cry when they die! W to both of you.
that skinny pirate oddly enough was nice, unless he knows who you are.
See, I never have sessions like this. For some reason, I either never see ships or they just run when I even go in their direction. Even when I do world event stacks, veils and high value stuff, most i’ll find is an open crew brig full of swabbies
I do open crew from time to time, just cause I know there are good players out there and my first experience of open crew was a veteran of the seas who's a really nice guy and we managed to do some voyages together and when time came to sell a bunch of ninjas ambushed us and sold almost half our loot before I managed to get rid of them
Dude was surprisingly nice for the sea of theives, said ggs, complimented your ship and lit his lanterns with the pink flame so you knew it was him
Me who uses a brig solo: this is fine
Bro is giga chad not being salty
honestly as a normal solo slooper I salute anyone who can fully do it perfectly its so God forsakenly hard when you have a litteral server full of reapers
Good short👍 not too long not too short
He’s not complimenting your ship he’s pissed off
That happen to me kinda a lot like the last time i play i do a fort with a red skull in the sky and when i finish it someone sink me when i tried to do an alliance😭
Devils roar Voyage of legends got me the Athenas Fortune legendary inaugural sails
"Dangers" is an understatement. STORY TIME: The other day playing solo i spawned at Ancient Spire and just 3 minutes in i was jumped by a duo sloop guild rank 5. Still had my anchor down cause i didnt even touched the ship and didint had food on me, so i get one balled, respawn, got spawn camped and one shot killed by a blunderbuss.
So i spawned fairly close and since i was fairly pissed, i went to fight. I was surely doing it well, but they got the storage crates i bought and they were fixing faster than i could damage their ship. So i ran out of supplies. I saw another sloop, went there to ask for help, but they shot me and ran away. Tried to buy some supplies, but since the start of season 12 ive had this bug that i cannot buy things sometimes. on ingame stores. I got sunk. I was so MAD. So i decided to recruit somebody for help and found someone.
The guild guys were already on my toes looking for a fight again but then they stopped to rob someones fort of the damned, the guy i was going to ask gets attacked by the sloop that ran away earlier, i help the new i saw doing the FOTD sink the sloop that ran away earlier, convince him to help me fight, made an alliance, went on his ship with my supplies, spent like 20 min trying to get to the guild ship, because ofcourse the wind was against. Then a wild brig shows up and after passing near an active regular fort, i get one balled. GREAT. The guy i was with wasnt near, dunno if he died or what, So i went to the ferry.
Back on my ship, with no supplies, my ego broken enough to not end the session, went sailing to the guild sloop again, ive got megged. Apparently they sunk the brig they respawned right beside me. Decided to open the crew so i can get some help, but instead got this UNIQUE PIECE OF SHIT that lowered my anchor and didint want to leave my boat. I said i needed to fight this sloop, i raised the anchor and he lowers it a second time. That happened a THIRD TIME and ive had had it. This game REALLY needs a kick button, FFS. Anyhow i left the game, but im still pissed and this was 2 weeks ago. thanx for joining my TED talk
I always do better than when I'm with a group. When I'm with a group we never get anything done because my friends spend half the time arguing about what the ship should look like and the rest of the time arguing about what quest they should do. When I'm solo I get a quest, I get it done and move onto another one.
Just wait until you've been grinding solo for 4 hours and a reaper comes up and annihilates you in seconds
My story after completing a fort is being attacked by a skelly sloop and a Kraken at the same time. I managed to escape the Kraken but not with a good send off slap from it. With every second going by my ship would surely sink. Bucket 3 repair, bucket 3 repair, the whole time the skelly sloop is on my tail. I managed to save the boat from sinking, park at and outpost, take out the skelly sloop and sell everything for grade 5 gold hoarders thanks to the few extra items from the skellies
Dangers of solo slooping: everything
Story of my life as a mostly all the time solo slooper. Watch your back mates.
It’s funny how the Tucker could’ve hid the chest or used your rowboat haha. But overall, he was a good sport
YOO CLIFF THE DOUBLE GUNNER!!!
Ive started a new PvP tactic. My friend plays with me and hes a history teacher. What we do is I chase them while he uses the megaphone non stop teaching them about Egypt. Its been quite effective.
That’s so me I love naval but people don’t care they try as hard as they can to board me than to rather have an actual naval battle
The one thing no one talks about soloing is there is no safe time to nip off for a trip to the bathroom. You take your loot and your life in your hands every time you need to drop anchor at the porcelain dock.
And that's why I'm beyond happy for safer seas
Had something like this happen to me today. They jumped me at the outpost, then complained I lowered my flag before they got there to kill me. Sold all my loot and lowered my flag successful. Then they decided to be toxic af acting like they were good, full with soundboard over the voice chat.
I wouldn't be so afraid of pvp if more guys were nice like the guy you killed.
Its sad to see the one cosmetic that was the achievement of being pirate legend in year one be a ez to unlock sail. Its like the devs are bent on making even platform thru and thru. Probably the tactic to make us day one players leave for good so we stop ruthlessly critiquing.
The thumbnail for this short looks like a low poly charizard
I like playing solo but I get scared and nervous a lot lmao I’m not good at pvp combat but shit pvp battles I’m ok but I can’t manage to repair and turn at the same time as firing my cannons it’s a big thing for me since I started playing back in 2021-2022 whenever sparrow came out I hope to get better at that tho at some point
This happened to me today, I was 4 hours gaming doing mission and someone just appeared when was the last mission
I re-installed Sea of Thieves recently and am yet to get into a fight with another player. In fact I've only seen two ships, one galleon that was glitching out and might not have even been there, and a sloop that ran away when it saw me going to the same island.
bro I stacked veil missions but when the tornado would spawn it would look like seagulls descending on a sandwich. So I would cancel it after I did the ghost fight so I had a couple athena treasures and would be rank 5 and just sell those. Yeah it isnt as much as with the chest of legends but it does put a dent in the emissary cosmetic score.
Double gunning? Cliff you dastardly dude you 😂
As a solo reaper ya this is is so true
I haven’t gain the confidence to sail by myself yet
i spent a couple hours doing a tall tale for shores of gold, headed to merrick outpost to unload and didnt see a galleon coming towards my sloup, they un-fkn-loaded and i wasted all that time, i was really bummed
Would you upload more every week I always enjoy when you upload
Ayooo doublegunner cliff i hope to see more
I've been playing solo since day one. I wouldn't consider myself "PVE only", although you do get very good at avoiding unnecessary conflict. I also happen to dress almost exactly like Cliff, although I haven't changed my outfit since the first month so idk who got it first 🤨
With Sea of thieves on PlayStation now im probably be very paranoid an just turn my lights off the ship at night
Oh wow. Really wasn't expecting him to be nice
