Thanks phuzzy for the ❤️. I have just started watching your content and streams I hope see more of this amazing content, and I am learning from you every time I watch you. Keep it up!
I'm actually really proud of myself. There were 2 guys in the medium ship (i don't remember what it's called) and i had really nothing. I just set sail after selling my goods and i didn't have much food or anything else. They sank my ship and were celebrating on the island i was adventuring on. Well I decided I'd get back at them for that, I managed to kill both of them at roughly the same time so i knew i had a little time. I raised their anchor and set their ship straight into the island and into a skeleton that was carrying a powder keg. I put their wheel far to the right so they constantly hit the island, i then used 5 fire bombs on their deck, sails, and a few below deck. Their ship sunk and they were not happy as i got a few...colorful messages from both of them. I am solo (for the most part) as i just started playing 2 days ago. Your tips helped me a lot to get a good start in the game so i figured I'd share this story with you and the comments, thanks a lot man keep up the amazing work
That is partially due to the crews, but also to the ships. A hostile crew on a brigantine has likely seen some tutorial or another on how to easily sink a server recommending the ship, which also leads to them often having free or cheap ship cosmetics and all black clothing (for the ship, sets like the spartan or omen, or blank colored sails), but the ship is designed for attacks that it can escape quickly from, being so frail a target but having the quickest acceleration of any ship coupled with the slowest turning. A hostile crew aboard a sloop is likely good enough at the game to not have to rely on numbers to win, but instead tactics and skill. Their ship reflects that, being able to stay out of the firing arc of most ships and dish out a decent amount of its own fire, with the ammunition stores being so close to the cannons themselves. It is also the slowest to sink, so it can take a beating and escape regardless with a good crew. Galleons are the most varied ship, with some crews being hopeless aboard them and others being nearly impossible to actually sink, particularly with the second deck absorbing any stray or bad cannon shots with no flooding, as the ship is built to tank damage and retaliate with unparalleled firepower. Its many masts also reflect that, taking longer to fully disable than smaller ships. Of course, some crews are hopeless regardless, and others have alternate strategies for better or worse performance. It's a varied Sea.
Tell that to the sneaky galleys. I am always just hanging out sailing by when out of nowhere there is a four man galleon heading straight for me. And always in the worst times. Like with an Athena. Or trying to ambush fotd when they aren’t even involved
@@nicholasrestrepo2555 Ships don't appear out of nowhere (unless they spawn at an outpost, but unless you're also there than you'll still see them, and they shouldn't spawn if you're there). They can mask their approach behind rocks and islands but you'll see them coming at some point as long as you keep an eye on the horizon at all times.
I just got the game on Steam and will probably be playing solo and learning it. Is it hard? (I know it might be a broad question) and that playing with a crew is easier, but is it do-able normally to play solo and get rich?
I'm also thinking about buying this game. Is it really fun to play solo? Some people say if you don't have friends, you shouldn't play. What should I do?
jvu2ilj26 it depends on what you like to do in games. For me, I can easily play this game solo and not get bored because it’s just relaxing for me to do some merchant, or gold hoarders voyages. However the most fun I have is doing combat with friends, and combat while solo is extremely difficult. I watched a lot of early release videos and played the beta to learn the basics of operating your ship, I suggest you do the same. Also watch some streams to see if you like the game. This game is a hit or miss to a lot of players and I don’t want ya to waste ur money if you don’t like it. If you do decide to get the game, always be paranoid because playing solo means you are probably the easiest to sink in that server.
Its bland because its all the same for half of the playerbase. *Sailing on an adventure and a fully crewed Galleon or Brig rolls up while you’re solo on a sloop and attack you. The toxic playerbase has ran so many people away that they cant even make it to where only sloops are on the same server to make it fair.
@@TheRealMrMotorboat I left the game a long time ago. Nobody wanted to fight at the time, not even reapers bones. Everybody wanted to be friendly and fled from everything. It was sad and boring.
@@JoeyJoestar99 Well literally everyone left that plays the game absolutely loves pvp and sinking solo sloops for no reason. So if thats your cup of tea then you might like it
I've seen a lot of PvP guides. I've got to say this is one of the best and most complete guides I've seen. It has a lot of smaller details that newer players don't know about yet
I like that Phuzzy, who is a first-rate player, doesn't edit out the parts where he dies to make himself look invincible. Entertaining battle! Thanks so much for the tips!
This is excellent. I'm often a solo slooper and by no means being highly experienced I try to avoid other ships at all costs. However I might try these if I am chased. Great vid :)
Fight people with no loot on your ship. Like, if you do your turn ins and see a ship? Go fight them. You have nothing to lose and it can only make you better at the game.
@@legg1499 Gathering a decent amount of supplies for the ship before sail takes time and is the most boring part of the game, specially if you're alone. So I always rage when my ship gots destroyed and I loose all of it.
Okay okay my mans really said “I first notice they haven’t watched my gown to aim cannons guide” and then LINKS IT IN THE CORNER MY MANS IS SMOOTHH!!! Def earned a sub
I wish I could think this critically in the heat of the moment. In battle, I always make split-second adrenaline-induced decisions which more often than not get me killed. Oh well, I guess it's a skill you refine with time. Good stuff!
Solo sloper (2yr) here. Phuzzy is by far the greatest content creator with awesome tutorials and in depth guides on tactics and game play. Patiently awaiting his next drop. Pistol Heroes at the ready!! Well done bud.
As a solo slooper this video was just what I needed to see, incredible. I've been playing this game on and off since it launched but I feel like I just watched a master class on solo ship combat and learned so much I didn't know. You are such a thoughtful, masterful tactician and it's so inspiring.
Or maybe they just had to get off for the night to get to work/school and couldn’t be bothered to continue the fight? I’m sure we all have been in the same position
You get extra gold and reputation for lowering your flag . They probably knew they lost so they didn't want to risk losing like 4000 gold and some rep for no reason. Not a salty play , a smart one.
"They're Teaching Me Portuguese" XD, Man, from a Brazillian myself, I laughed a lot when you said that. Turning back in the game a couple years later on a bad pc running poorly at 20-30 fps but still having fun as always, and there where your videos come in great help. Thanks for the content and always continue making your videos, they help a lot
Only found out recently there are a couple buttons free for hotkeying on controllers, wow it’s been life changing. I use left on the d-pad for planks, right on the d-pad for food, and push down right stick for throwables. Pro tip to anyone else, hotkeying food and throwables are important because it cycles between them.
Thanks man fended off my first reaper emissary because of your tips! To elaborate i steered my ship around evading them and ran through the ghost ship event so they were slowed down, got myself to an island and sold off all my stuff. I used several tips from this vid, like how to pre-position the sail, how to use the harpoon to steer, shooting their ships to keep them busy, and using blunderbombs when selling my stuff while they attacked me.
Im still not used to fight chasers when solo (or i just refuse to give them what they want) but i love using harpoon tactic to outmaneuver them. Expect when two guys chase you with Brig, one of them try NON STOP hit you with harpoon, and other stand in front and yell "We not gonna hurt you". Funny words when they start chase with hillbilly accent "You gonna die, BOY!" (South, huh?). And YES....two of them... no one looks for ship wheel so i harpoon that incoming rock to make Caribbean Drift, with PLEASURE
when i first bought this game it was a school night and i was ready to go to bed i had watched everyone play it at launch, i watched summit play it, and got a good understanding of how it works. so im like "before i play lemme make a playlist of solo beginner guides" well 2 days later when i finally opened the game i had completely forgotten about the playlist lucky for me that was one of the few times, my forgetfulness came in handy. because while I had a good grasp on the main parts of the game, sailing solo and learning from mistakes or from random encounters was the best. I realized I could use vault keys to actually do vaults, got ambushed while I thought I was safe on an island, got krakened in the open sea and escaped with all my loot on a rowboat, harassed a fully decked out galeon and ended up making friends with them, successfully pulled off 3 tucks in a row, sunk and then stole my first ashen loot haul as well as their emissary 5 flag, tucked on a ship and listened to a father/son explore the seas together(then keg bombed em), rallied 2 other sloops to fight flame beard with me and it was actually epic, and most recently fought off a reapers mark sloop while i was being attacked by a meg. its safe to say that once you learn your ways on this game it becomes the easiest way to create amazing memories. for anyone looking to get into this game, dont be afraid to go solo. sure its more work, and playing with a friend is way more fun, but Ive already started to consider this game as one of my top 10 even after just 2 weeks of playing it. because at the end of the day, its not about the loot or cosmetics, It's about having an experience (and maybe looking good while doing so).
I wish I could be as calm as you during pvp.. My heart races..no lie.. I feel the the small spike in adrenaline...it surprises me..like dafuq? Nonprovlem in rdr2 or gta.. random
I enjoy your videos because you are well spoken, don't beg for likes and subscribes at the beginning of your videos, and provide clear details and instructions. Sharing your videos with all my greenbeard friends. Bravo!
Another amazing guide Phuzzy! These narrated encounters are super helpful - understanding your thought process and breaking down your options is the best for learning. Please keep them coming! Even for Brig & Galleon combat.
0:20 And that is why some many people want PvE servers. Hard day at work it's nice to kick back and relax playing SoT. Until you get ganked but 4 players. Sure they could easily come up with a way to split the servers so loot doesn't carry over.
wouldn't it be cool if there were servers with only sloops, only brigs or only galleons? a balanced pvp game mode like that would be a no brainer in my opinion
Please don't stop showing us tips about solo slooping you have no idea how much better I got thanks to you and other streamers. Amazing content ! peace dude :)
just started yesterday, your videos are helping me quite a bit in terms of pvp! though for the most part, i've been having really positive encounters. i had a three-man begin to sink me, then when they realized i had nothing they came and patched my ship up and gave me a bunch of materials. really loving the game so far!
I was literally just killed on my first solo sloop adventure while waiting for a friend to come back from the store. Managed to fend them off for a bit after watching some of your other vids, but I wish that I'd seen the advice on the sales deal about 5 minutes sooner. I might have survived for a bit longer. xD
nice video Phuzzy Just what saved me my ship yesterday and my loot.First real combat where i didnt run and instantly get destroyed instead had a battle. They left me after a while ago,but now i know even if i dont see them anymore.Check the isle you are on if they are hiding on the other side before starting your mission.
Honestly as someone who is more of an evasive solo slooper rather than a defensive skirmish solo slooper, I still picked up some really nice tips. I doubt I'll ever get into that dogfight position on purpose, but that blunderbomb tip I know is going to save me more than a few times. I'm pretty good at making sure I can outrun most other crews out their and lose them, but the few that threaten to keep up, this will be nice.
I got a notification from twitch that you gifted me a sub to Mason! Thank you very much! I appreciate it! And I've been using your videos to learn how to play! I just started and your advice is AMAZING. Keep it up dude! :)
@@elmagodragon Nope, its not the servers its your hardware. I load back from the ferry or mermaids within a literal second of pressing the button. You need to upgrade to an SSD and quit crying my dude
@@elmagodragon That is not an server issue. My game loads within seconds. It is a hardware issue on your side. That is also the reason why I prefer playing on console. Just a fair base for everyone.
@@marco8940 just google the console you have and see if it has an SSD, which it probably doesnt since you have loading time issues. Go on amazon or to walmart and buy an external SSD or just get one with an adapter and boom, 3 second load times tops
@@PhuzzyBond Oh I am always behind you stalking these incredible Guides and sharing with my crew. Beyond the content I am blown away by the editing art!! I'll see you on the next Stream. Til then be safe and well mate!
Hey Paul 😊 send my regards to your son, wind in your sails! I'll give him a shout-out on stream if you are there to congratulate the new legend ! Stay safe my friend
Phuzzy, a trick I learned that is a little quicker than mermaids and the only real reliable place to use it is on seaposts, but there is a spot just to the left of the merchant person that you get stuck amd the game just puts you on your ship
You are not wrong when you say sloops are deadly, almost took out our whole alliance with a few kegs, unfortunately for them I got a lucky shot at their crows nest.
@PhuzzyBond i think after season 8 you will probably have to remake this video, and maybe have a series of 5 min vids about specific topics, if i saw more alliance flags od probably ally a lot more for one example and tht takes 2 seconds to say. Condense them for easy learning, not that your videos arent alreadys.

I always find brigs are the most aggressive, yet sloops are probably more deadly.

Managed to fend them off for a bit after watching some of your other vids, but I wish that I'd seen the advice on the sales deal about 5 minutes sooner. I might have survived for a bit longer. xD
Reasonably new to the game and you genuinely have the best tip videos for getting better 🤩
Awesome mate 🤗 wind in your sails!
nice video Phuzzy
Just what saved me my ship yesterday and my loot.First real combat where i didnt run and instantly get destroyed instead had a battle.
They left me after a while ago,but now i know even if i dont see them anymore.Check the isle you are on if they are hiding on the other side before starting your mission.
I like you guises a lot because you make things really simple and easy to understand
Honestly as someone who is more of an evasive solo slooper rather than a defensive skirmish solo slooper, I still picked up some really nice tips. I doubt I'll ever get into that dogfight position on purpose, but that blunderbomb tip I know is going to save me more than a few times. I'm pretty good at making sure I can outrun most other crews out their and lose them, but the few that threaten to keep up, this will be nice.
That animal crossing reference had me dead Hahahah too relevant as that and sea are my fav gsmes
Your sailing has beyond increased since the last time we sailed. Good job bud
Hey mate hope you are well 😊 thank you
that was a great PVP overview combined with the thinking aloud very understandable. Scary calm while PVPing.
I got a notification from twitch that you gifted me a sub to Mason! Thank you very much! I appreciate it! And I've been using your videos to learn how to play! I just started and your advice is AMAZING. Keep it up dude! :)
GG 🤗 you are welcome my friend
This is gold! One of the best guides I've seen Learned a lot
This is why I sub to your twitch ever month phuzzy. You learn from your mistakes and teach others no not make the same ones.
Thanks mate 😊 good to see you here my friend
Dude!! Amazing video, I am a brazilian player and I am sorry for those guys who u faced. Certainly u showed up yourself much harder as they expected.
“Apparently they were teaching me Portugese” I just searched this up and had a good chuckle
This battle was more exciting than most movies I've seen recently.
Brilliant work here. Thanks a lot.
Phuzzy I use your guid so much that it is natural to me now. Love the content keep it up!
I can't leave my ship because my loading screen takes forever. So that's not an option for me
Yeah, servers suck hard in this game.
@@elmagodragon Nope, its not the servers its your hardware. I load back from the ferry or mermaids within a literal second of pressing the button. You need to upgrade to an SSD and quit crying my dude
@@elmagodragon That is not an server issue. My game loads within seconds. It is a hardware issue on your side.
That is also the reason why I prefer playing on console. Just a fair base for everyone.
Wundawuzi how do you check your hardware ? i’m a bit of a dumbass when it comes to console stuff
@@marco8940 just google the console you have and see if it has an SSD, which it probably doesnt since you have loading time issues. Go on amazon or to walmart and buy an external SSD or just get one with an adapter and boom, 3 second load times tops
love this! Thank you for the tips
Dang, man. You are incredibly skilled!
1:29 FDP is a french way to say something bad ^^ not Portugese. Pardon me if it was ironic :D
love ur content!
The sunken ship manuever idea is fucking gold man, you're a genius.
Thank you 😊
These tutorials are helping me a ton, I just started playing earlier!
I love this series, Phuzz... good work!
I haven't played for a while, thanks for this!
Thanks for the guide! while playing in the arena I stopped 3 boarding attempts with blunderbombs
It's crazy that someone who talks so calmy is such a savage player.
This is just another fantastic guide by the Yoda of the Seas!!!!
This is JASDRUMMER btw :)
Oh hey mate 🤗 good to see you here , hope you're doing well and safe!
@@PhuzzyBond Oh I am always behind you stalking these incredible Guides and sharing with my crew. Beyond the content I am blown away by the editing art!! I'll see you on the next Stream. Til then be safe and well mate!
@@TheJASDrummer thank you my friend 🤗 see you next stream and have a great sail!
you just earned a sub
Thank you 😊
Great guide as usual! My son and I watch your videos. Next time he plays he'll be Pirate Legend (8yrs old. XBox S).
Hey Paul 😊 send my regards to your son, wind in your sails! I'll give him a shout-out on stream if you are there to congratulate the new legend ! Stay safe my friend
Wow they really just did that at the end! I cant believe it! (Make sure you watch the whole thing!😜)
Gnarfield I love your vids,phuzzy's vids and sneaker's vids
I did sth similiar when i got attacked by anchoring at a outpost
The only thing i cared was my flag.Had already sold the loot.
That is so annoying lol. Gaining the upper hand with a disadvantage and they deny you the closure of finishing the job lol
Rico Sanchez All’s fair in love and war
There are no rules in the seas
Well that will definitely change my sessions on SoT 🙏
I don’t know what it is but if I’m solo sloping I’m more scared of another sloop than a brig. I also wanted to say that your voice is very calming.
Brilliant video... subscribed!
Phuzzy, a trick I learned that is a little quicker than mermaids and the only real reliable place to use it is on seaposts, but there is a spot just to the left of the merchant person that you get stuck amd the game just puts you on your ship
Thanks for the tips man.
You have some good videos explaining strategy. Just subbed
Saw the Tweet before i saw the Notification!
🤔👀
Your voice cures my soul...
Dope vid, phuzzy
This helped a lot especially the Secret sword dash
Boi, this is gonna be very helpful for me.
._.
Great video as always Phuzzy! Even though I don't really solo sloop this is still pretty helpful!
Agreed mate, it works for all types of defense, if you do this as a crew you'll never lose 🤗
You are not wrong when you say sloops are deadly, almost took out our whole alliance with a few kegs, unfortunately for them I got a lucky shot at their crows nest.
Imagine fighting you like halfway through the fight you just start receiving heavy fire from an island. Really cool left field moves you pull here
Thank you, there aren't many good guides out there.
thank ya sir🤠
Love your content man well done keep it up so funny too.
I love that you sound like the narrator in nature shows and movies
that hook on the underwater ship was incredible
Amazing guide as usual thank you!
Phuzzy Bond might be the resurrection of Black Beard
I like how you don't shit on other people who don't like fighting players
Very helpful, very few of my friends play SoT, so I generally solo around. I play only on Xbox if anyone is looking for a solid PL crewmate
Yes please, add me if u wanna play, my gt is DarkPrince9449, im 12 but... i mean, i hope it isnt a problem
Thanks this will help so much on Athena voyages and runs
Woah with this information this changes sea of thevies a lot for me
@PhuzzyBond i think after season 8 you will probably have to remake this video, and maybe have a series of 5 min vids about specific topics, if i saw more alliance flags od probably ally a lot more for one example and tht takes 2 seconds to say. Condense them for easy learning, not that your videos arent alreadys.
