First can i get pin please i love ur videos and ur streams sm 😄
This maybe not the place for this but wth. I've been playing for about 3 weeks as a solo slooper and just made PL, so I thought I'd try my hand at skulduggery. There was a FoF happening and I noticed a brig hiding behind Devil's Ridge nearby. I managed to sneak on board as they were all 3 off the boat and barreled by the map table. Twenty minutes later, they killed whoever it was who cleared the FoF and loaded the loot. Next island they, you guessed it, all left the ship. I made off with a Chest of Legends and they never even knew. Not very impressive, I'm sure but it's my first steal and I loved it. I can see why you have 10,000 hours sir. This is addictive. Good luck in 2024!
Have fun my friend, hope we meet on the seas ❤
I'm planning to do this soon too, 2 weeks playing but I opted to learn in Safer Seas as there's so much to focus on. I think I'm ready for the High Seas 😅 Congratz my friend hope to see you there 😊
PL in 3 weeks :( I’ve been playing for a year and I’m 1/3 of the way there
@ToastLord2611 I don't Even know how to get Legend haha I assume getting 3 to 50 but is there something else. I'm stoked just got Captain in 2 world events on Higher seas haha 3 days of safer seas got me 60k that's a crazy diff.
@@SBF334 Yeah, the main 3 to 50. Gold hoarders, Merchant alliance and Order of souls
Great stuff. "Project confidence" is such a big deal for newer players, especially ones who don't actually want to fight. You're more likely to get left alone if you don't make it obvious you won't fight back!
Ayeeee
Brooo that flippin' chest / keg dupe at 6:00 was simply amazing! Subscribed as soon as I saw that smart play! Had me laugh good too
I’ve been trying to get better at PvP for awhile, this video I can already tell will come in handy! Another awesome video hitbo!
You are one of my favorites to watch Hitbo. These are great tips, easily understandable for a beginner
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for the tips Hitbot. Very helpful. Subbed.. And 10,000 hrs damn man, thats cray cray.
11:25 Check for tuckers constantly. Everytime you leave your ship, you ... check for tuckers constantly. Everytime you leave your ship, and you get back to it, do a quick check for tuckers.
Im not sure, do I have to check for tuckers?
Love the content Hitbo, keep it coming!
😂😂😂😂
I have 2k hours and ive never been tucked on unknowingly. That sounds like a waste of time
@@ButterBallTheOpossum Your time will come...
@@ButterBallTheOpossum If you don't wanna check every time (which really doesn't take that long tbh), you should at least check when doing things that will attract other players like world events
I wonder why all the scallywags of the Sea call tuckers "Tuckers" instead of stowaways or something more piratey XD
Caught you on stream today dude. Good banter on Australia’s remoteness haha! Very big fan my dude thanks a lot for your content.
Edit: amazing video, very useful tips in here I’ll definitely be using!
Thanks dude!
with the project confidence I find a good way to do it in is puzzy bond's how not to get mad in sea of thieves with the tip being don't fight to win fight to lose where you don't feel like you have lost everything but you feel calmer so when you die and sound genuinely pleased saying nice shot it may put them on edge
Awesome video brother ❤ May the seas be on your favor Happy new year by the way 🎯 hitbo :)
Thanks so much
Very informative captain.
great video as always, happy new year!
Happy new year!
Thank you!
I love your videos! They have taught me a lot about the game (picked up about a week ago)
Glad you like them!
Bless you for being a part of this community, Hitbo. 🐻
Thanks Eddie! Much love my friend.
Thanks!
Goddamn these tips are definitely going to help! Thanks!
Hitbo: Always park your ship parallel to the island, sails up, anchor up.
Also Hitbo: Tries to drop sails on every parked ship to distract people and steal stuff.
Listen...
It's one of those things where you are going to lose either. You just get to pick.
1. Someone boards drops your sails and robs you because you didn't see them coming.
2. A ship rolls up and sinks you because your anchor was down and you were facing the island... and you weren't looking.
Pick your poison.
Hello, this is great!
Aye OG tip video let's go!
Hitbo using your tips I solo sunk a galleon using a sword, pistol, and lots of cannons!
Additional tip , if you find yourself in a death spiral situation, steer the helm so it syncs with the circle move of the enemy ship, that way only half of your ship exposed and you buy yourself some time
I love sot so much and I’m always playing it alone because all my friends don’t want to play it/ play it constantly so they improve. Solo slooping is pretty rough sometimes. I wish I had someone fighting by my side
U play Xbox ? I’ll run it with u
I’ll run it with you!
Nice
You whaa? Didnt think tucking made you invisible?? Just.. less noticable, explains mysterious bang barrels when I came back to my ship( or flying bomber pirates )😂 I do solo sloop only on High seas and jolly co-operation with my siblings for now, on Safer seas. Solo HS sure is the hardcore mode and I LOVE the adrenaline rush and being vigilant!
Hello. I have this game 4 days so is best video for me xD
So I’ve only played bout 12 hours in SoT on High Seas and I haven’t seen many boats and no one attacked me. Anyway, you say always keep anchor up but my boat starts drifting away depending on currents of course, is there some way to moor it so I don’t need the anchor? Thanks for any advice
When im in a canon fight i aim either right below, left or right of the canon, what happens is i can get a good knock off of the canon while nailing their hull.
Placing kegs inside the reaper chests at FoTD was diabolical
11:23 Failtake? No such thing, leave it in! 😂😂
Boats do not park they dock
The wheel is the Helm
Ropes are called lines
Thanks for all these tips Ps5 April
My count as a win is for me getting a good laugh and having fun. Sinking and dying is part of the game, however there is unlimited grog. So win win.
Tip 1 never let anybody on your ship, tip 2 if you’re fighting somebody harpoon them so they come onto your ship.
The rest of the class: …..
I mean.. I show you HOW
I was harpooned onto a ship once, I blunder busted the guy immediately, and my teammate proceeded to fill his ship with cannonballs while I spawn camp him.. he clearly wanted me on his ship so I took the opportunity
good video. Does his voice remind anyone else of John C. Reilly?
you are not the only one that has said this lol
Don't track for 4 hours if you or anyone on your crew aren't good at pvp all it takes is one weak link and you'll sink and lose everything!!
Was it just me or did anyone else notice that sus looking barrel by the food barrels? Unless I'm crazy and thats actually normally there
My crew was able to sink Blurbs when they encountered him, and he tried to enforce the laws of the pirate council. When my crew encountered The Cursed Captain; they did not win the day.
Long Live The MEMES!
How does one know how many hours they have?
What do u do when you kill people on their boat when their waiting to spawn? I started fire bombing thier boat but it didn't really do anything. Is there any way to sink it?
Unfortunately not really. Fire will work eventually.
@@HitboTC do the exploding bomb ones make holes?
@@MMk-me1xtNo, blunder bombs do not make holes. if the ship is moving and theres a rock nearby u do a hull integrity test and ram into it. or you could sail them out to the red sea if its not 2 far away.
Me and my bro just got camped by a guy who when asked what do you want we have nothing replyed "Your souls".
So here I am trying to learn how to defend myself because I have like 6 hours of game time and know nothing.
Without an anchor down, surely my boat would sail away at a world event, right?
How do y’all know when ur getting boarded I’m usually tryna steer the ship to get a angle or tryna shoot the opposing ship I feel like they be getting on mine just the perfect time when I’m not looking over the ladder
The boarding sound is the biggest thing to listen for.
Use your headset
@@william9922 no
Did anybody else notice that his ships name was Kevin in the boarding part?
For boarder defense if the player is low on the ladder you can jump off your boat, one blunder them, then recatch. It takes some skill to do that but is more of a guarantee. When returning fire and your ship is close to the enemy watch where the players position is on the ship. If they are at cannon line shoot cannon line. If they are at wheel shoot wheel so they can't turn out of broadside. Always try to go for advantages. You should try to kill the enemy first, get the mast second, then hit the wheel third. There are some situations where you can't always kill the enemy so make sure you are always trying to get the next advantage. After you have all advantages your goal should be to spread. Spreading out your cannons will insure that more holes are being put in the ship. You can't just hit the same spot on the ship because holes will only stay Tier 3 and hitting a tier 3 won't add any water. When you are repairing mast the other advantage of repairing on the opposite side of the enemy ship is visibility. You are able to see where the enemy cannons are, so don't stand directly behind the mast because you would lose visibility. You do not need to buy cannon crates, wood crates, or fruit crates. Always have a storage crate and make sure you fill it up every once in a while. You can still have a playable amount of supps with just a storage crate. Also if you want to learn movement and aim the best thing to do is board a skelly gally. The skelly gally will spawn a infinite amount of skelly's that will keep attacking you. Its the best way to learn tdm if you can't make a private server or don't have insider. Also if you want to check for tuckers on mast throw a firebomb on it. Fire will spread to all parts of the mast, and will guarantee a hit marker if a enemy is tucking.
no one reading all that 💀
@@rgdafgfsdfs fr💀
When i do the dash with the sword my character stands still for like a few seconds why is his not?
it’s because he is hitting an enemy if you miss your lunge you’re stuck catching your breath for a few seconds!
Could I have the name of the torn sail please?
Min 9:13
11:22 also known as paranoia. look at him!! haaha full paranoid. I do that only when I'm suspecting something or I wouldnt enjoy playing anymore lol
I just rage quit playing this game for the first time. Was solo slopping trying to coins to buy my first ship they both boarded my ship and had cutless and just kept spawn killing me didn’t try damaging my ship after they boarded.
“The Best PvP Tips and Tricks” as narrated by John C. Riley
What can I say but you’re welcome?
I like to fix my ship I suck at fighting they movements are too fast for me :(
Holes in ships are tier 1-5.
On our first pvp encounter, we had a meg and ghost ship come out and hit us along with the enemy players... 😢
This sounds exactly like what happened to me on my sloop The Devils Cutlass.
"dont use nightshine parrot cosmetics as it pegs you as a new player", meanwhile im using them despite having 251 hours played lol
251 hours is a new player lol
I use them... been playing off and on since launch. 75 PL... trash at the game though I guess.
I just bought the Night Shine Parrot bundle for my ship and I'm seeing this, I think I've just wasted my money.
Best PvP tip you can get: Don't play pvp. Cheaters everywhere and Rare doesn't give a single sht about it.
Turn on console and controller only match making setting. Less likely to get paired with PC, who seem to be the main hackers
@@VampWolff3that don’t matter I promise you, I’m on Xbox and ran into 2 different cheaters 2 days in a row. First one had speed cheat for the sloop, I had full wind control on my sails and they were still faster then me, even tho they were catching zero wind. and they never lost health me and my buddy blunder bussed dude 3 times each and he didn’t even eat food and still never died, the second day basically the same shit but without the boat hack, and his stats were all at zero, never had game time, never had distance traveled, nothing. But was still “goated”
@@scotttehog8357ur jus bad probably
@@scotttehog8357you cant cheat on consoles looks like you are just bad
6:28 But the loot is worth more when you sell it as a grade 5 emissary so.......
Good tips but you've really missed IMO the one of the best tips in the whole game. Boarders make a sound when boarding, they make a splash sound that is distinct from the water splash effect. The moment you know this boarders are never a surprise at the very least. Mermaid sound is not a good cue because they can be far enough away to not hear it, and looking for mermaids is not always feasible. You mentioned all the other important ones, aiming for the cannon line and using chainshots. Even the best players lose with their mast down. I'd argue chainshots are OP but here we are.
I can never get chains hots to work for some reason. Looks like they should be a direct hit on the mast and just goes straight through. Am I missing something? No pun intended 😅😂
10k hours is literally insane.
I have a problem
wait? night parrot is a noobs outfit??? i bbeen rocking full set for months just cos i think its pretty lol granted i dont use the sail... that might explain why its easy to trick some ppl they think im a noob wheni have 100s of hours lol
and i mean every item and musical instrument my whole inventory is night parrot lol
also, if you're playing with friends, never forget, you may not be the best at the helm, your friends may not be the best shot or repairman, but as long as you have a good communication, a well organised group of friend can defeat or at least escape a more competent player or crew... it's great if everyone can win any 1v1, it doesn't matter much if you lose your ship in the process
You don't have 10k hours but 7k hours, I've looked to your xbox profile
Could have a steam account too...
Damn, illuminati confirmed bro!!!
How many multiplayer games today make you say "I'VE GOT AN IDEA"?
Sea Of Thieves, Global Treasure.
You can't jump and lunge on Xbox, soon as you hold down the lunge you can no longer jump
Block first.
Ur vids r so not boring and definatley dont suck balls 😂😘
😂
10,000 hours?!
what's your tattoo
9th haha
Let’s go, comment 100 BABY!
I’m average at pvp and surprisingly become law in the servers I play in but would rather them just to make pvp more consistent like with hitboxes. Also safer seas should not punish you with lesser rewards and content, pve is the best part of this game.
Did you call me a filthy tucker
We are filthy. Salt water does not clean us proper.
@@HitboTC fair enough 🤣🤣
Found a glitch that makes you fireproof which is kinda helpful
10,000 hours is 416 days of your life bruh
The PvP in this game gives me cancer
Yup on the trust part. Two days ago I tried to help an obviously brand new Galleon. Gave a bunch of tips, etc. They were receptive...until their 4th boarded. "Who's this? A prisoner? Etc etc etc." I was like alright I'm out. Didn't catch mermaid right away and hear
"I guarantee that guy's unemployed. Who has "corgi dad" in their name?
Yeah I guarantee your ship is sunk. Was it petty? Yes. Do I care? No. I'm usually too nice to be a pirate, but damn that insult hurt. "I'm sorry man! That's my crew, not me!" Sorry not sorry. Learn from this.
I will never learn from this and recieve zero repurcussions
2:15 aimbot fail ^_^
u cant be real
Games like this require an unrealistic amount of time of practice just to be able to come close to enjoying the game without getting spawn killed every time you set sail. It’s kind of sad really, I hope if they make a new game in the future, they can fix a lot of the toxic aspects to make the game playable for new people.
I mean the game has retained an active playerbase for about 6 years, not every game does that but for games that do its expected that a good chunk of those players are gonna have 1000+ hours
I just started playing 3 days ago, have 16 hours in, and not once have I been "spawn killed".
😂 in short... pvp is impossible
ladder guarding with blunder bombs is cringe because they can knock you off even when you are at the bottom of the ladder
"Game mechanic is cringe because it doesn't match my personal opinion."
it takes no skill and is the most powerful defence
The skill is not to assblast yourself with blundetbombs. Use whatever mechanic avaiable I say. To the core isnt being a pirate cringe? Or use a sniper on crows boom barrels? Or even place boom barrels up there cringe? Exactly!
Blunderbomb ladder guarding doesn't have a counter and it doesn't take skill to do. That's why I don't like it.
Some navel idiot can come over and doesn't have to be good at all at hand to hand but can spam blunderbombs and sword and be really annoying
Why are you in every SoT video comment section lmao, you're right about the blundies tho
only noobies use swords
noob noob noob
Best not to play the game. Too many cheaters
It becomes clear when you realize what tools are available, unpatched. Holding a vault key triggers hackers that can radar you many screens away.
Aimbots, teleporting onto your ship, yeah, no. It's just not worth playing this game until they fix the hacker problem or allow for safer seas with unpunished rewards.
Try hard
thanks
Please touch grass, how the quack did you play 10 000+ hours, wtf
I do this for a living
@@HitboTC damn, i hope it pays well and that you get to see the sun once in a while
Vanilla kids, mods and hacking just kills the game for everyone. Filling the sandbox with kitty litter to crap in. Just play the game. Shhhheeeesh
ice cold 🥶
Who hurt you?
content creators for this game cant be more cringe
Bet
Taking this game way to seriously
Ur just bad
Guy 10000 hours worries about the sunk cost fallacy. ‘I want to be a TH-camr’ Doesn’t know what Literal is. Figurative eludes him.
10, 000 hours? Do you have a concept of real life? My work consists of peeling dead bodies from computers and carpet. The whole house is ruined because some renters dont eat.
HUH?! What does that have to do with Sea of Thieves PvP?!?
