Sea of Thieves is very much a "use whatever loadout you're good at OR whatever loadout your opponent's loadout has the hardest time defending against" type of game, not a "these loadouts are the best and don't bother with these because they suck" type of game.
Yea, knife is good, idk why he's so salty about it, I know there's like a skill curve, but you can just get good, and then you have the fastest hit to kill in the game aside from a 1 blunder
Not particuarly a hand-to-hand tip but this is for cannon aim. Use the base skin or seadog skins for the cannons. You can use the rings on the barrel like distance indicators on a scope or rifle. These will best help you gauge how high to aim the cannon if any ship is further out. And use the carriage rings to the side for lead/follow when in a spiral or aren't doing a parallel broadside.
one weapon combo i highly recommend would be the Sword and Pistol. using the Sword you can have very good movement and you can easily hit multiple targets at once (that only counts if you're fighting a 2+ crew.), and then you can use the pistol to easily kill a player as you can reload quicker than the person can eat. however this loadout isn't liked by TDM community and isn't as functional outside of on-ship combat.
@@Prokat_ it's just more fun using the pistol, and as I said using the pistol you can easily kill the enemy player as he can not eat in time after you shoot him once.
@@Prokat_due to the fact that you can hip fire with the pistol and it be reliable as well as the fact that it has high reload speed. Sniper and pistol are both viable options for diffrent reasons
real video. I always like seeing smaller sot yters, deserves a sub. I also really appreciate the gameplay of you tdming and usually dying, bros got balls of steel for using that as background content
for everybody that needs it, here i will list damage outputs for every weapon. sword: 25 per slash (x3 combo capability), 60 with a lunge flintlock: 55 per hit blunderbuss: it shoots 10 pellets, dealing 10 for each pellet (so a maximum of 100 damage) sniper: 70 per hit double barrel pistol: 45 for each projectile, 90 if you shoot both of them at the same time throwing knives: 14 per light stab, 65 if trown and 70 with the heavy stab
SoT players when you want a sword fight in the pirate game:😠 But yeah Blunder + Sniper is just the best load out even if Rare wants to pretend it isn't.
@@sparrowsbewertungen6930 eeeeh yes-int. Like yeah sword is easier to hit stuff with but man have you one-shotted a problem away before? Sniper is more so to take advantage of people keeping their distance. The whole pvp system is just busted.
@@pyerack yea but the biggest problem is .. 90% of doublegunners geard on youtube that its good, so they do it, but lack the skill and just spam pump sniper Hit like 5% of their shots
I know many people won’t like it but I use the blunderbust and the knife it just works the best for me You can use the blunderbust to make the enemies low and then you can kill them with the knife in distance while they’re reloading or switching weapons + you’re movement is perfect with the knife
Honestly, the sword is always in my load out... I really like the boost to mobility and usually catch people with the block/lunge after faking sword dodge... my secondary weapon is case dependent, but I have used that sword since 2018 and it's still highly effective with practice
I always hate when people hate on sword, it is BY FAR the most consistent weapon because its not a 50-50 if the bullet does anything or not. Also the sword is amazing with most of the guns.
As a Sword and Pistol main: it’s actually really fun in my experience. It’s great for mid to close range aggression and movement since the speed of hip-firing is so oppressive. In competitive scenes it’s obviously not as effective but I don’t think it’s anywhere near useless, especially when you get really good with it.
@@xD3m0nx that’s what i had til i got the elite. But now i just play on PC. The default keybinds are ass in SOT. I always reset all my new friends console keybinds.
I run double barrel pistol because both shots hitting at close range make a sword kill easy. If they aren’t close the pistol still has enough range to not worry about a counter blunder
@Toolshedwasnotinduckbmp yeah I just found out about this thing called hourglass so we can play that some if you'd like, so you go around and fight these new super good ai that mimic real player except they are really bad :D
4 things i thought were important, snipers do 70 damage, crosshairs are bannable and looked down upon, dont tdm if you’re new it’s a mostly toxic part of the community who will hate you if you’re bad and don’t spawncamp it’s also bannable
Crosshairs are not bannable unless you literally report yourself they are not detectable. How exactly is spawncamping bannable? If you find the right people to tdm with they aren't toxic, sounds like a you problem imo
@@Prokat_ yes you are right about crosshairs, the point is that they are bannable and i just wouldn't use them without fully knowing what you are doing. Spawncamping is bannable due to new rules in season 10, im not sure the full scope of it but i know it is bannable now though you can just put a firebomb in the back of the persons ship and then its not bannable. Also if you do find the right group of people its great but it can be really easy to find the wrong group of people.
@RobbieSOT honestly the fact that spawn camping is against the rules now.makes me hate sot even more🤣 it wasnt a chill thing to do but sometimes you had to do it, especially if someone was spam coming back to sink you and wouldnt leave you alone. Sot has really gone tf downhill.
Don't sleep on throwing knives! If you get good at your aim with them, they hit as hard as a sword charge-- Tied with a blunderbuss, or a pistol if you've got good aim, you can decimate a target before they can eat, or punish them if they do with another knife. Just never throw your last knife, as I find even the basic swing a good last-second finisher, since it hits fast. I have no real defense for the double barrel pistol, I just like it bc it's goated for PvE, my specialty. You're best switching off it for PvP though.
As much hate I’ll get, throwing knives sword is like a better version of the cheese. Throwing knives two shot and are insanely easing to hit shots with. Combine it with sword for movement and you get really good at ship boarding
I feel like it's very important to mention some weapons are better suited for certain roles, for example if you are a cannoneer on a brig or galleon you should always be running blunderbuss
He did he is a noob and doesn't know the game 😂 he complaining about sniper killing you for some odd reason when below 60 health 😂😂😂 he obviously doesn't know weapon damage so everything he is giving advice on is now invalid
I love using sword knife as well. I know it is wholly impractical for PvP but for PvE it is fantastically fun if nothing else. The big downside is that the thrown knife can be sword blocked which is kinda bananas. And swords have such useful mobility options.
Throwing knives is completely skill based but they do more damage then pistol and you can fire them off faster 😂 it's projectile speed and velocity that's the main difference. Double barrel is op if you charge 2 shots then you can kill someone with almost any other damage type 😂double barrel shot then 1 sword swing or 1 shot from another gun.

Englishman here and i can confirm i use a throwing knife and a sword as i take over the sea of thieves and purge pirace in the name of the king of England.
Hi, ex sotter, i used to tdm all the time and I have a few notes for tdming. 1. Always know where your enemy is. You can watch them move through the wood, track them and shoot them when they peak. 2. Learn some "fort movement". The forts have a few cool jump spots that allow you to jump up higher or jump down from certain levels quickly. Learn these moves to surprise your enemy. 3. At longer ranges, remember that bullets have travel time. More so flintlock but even sniper can have it. If you want a sexy long ranged 2 tap, then make sure to aim higher to compensate for your flintlock bullet drop. 4. Might seem dumb but when you're in the moment you might forget about using your crosshair to aim and just aim using "feel" don't do that. If ur aim is decent then be consistant by using your crosshair 5. Be the first to hit both your shots, not the first to dump both bullets. You only have 2 shots before you have to reload, and reloading takes a long time. Don't just dump your bullets out if you are sacrificing acceracy for it. Take your time and aim your shots, don't miss. 6. If you don't know about this already then there is a few methods to shorten your reload time. The oldest way is X Canceling. As soon as you fire you double tap X (or whatever you have you're stow weapon binded to) to reload quicker. Another way and my prefered way is sprint canceling. As soon as you fire you tap sprint. It is usually faster than X canceling. This requires you to be walking forward though, so the best way is to interchange sprint canceling with X canceling depending on your situation. Try these methods on skeletons. 7. Record yourself to see how you suck so you can improve quicker. 8. Be in control of your movement. Don't bump into walls, or slip off rocks or do things to mess up your movement. It's ok to break eyesight with your enemy briefly to look where you're going and improve your movement. 9. For team fights, be aware of all the enemys. You might get tunnel vison on your target and not notice their team mate behind you. It's ok to break a fight for a moment to get the advantage later. I learn this from playing tf2, always spy check. 10. A little bit like number 9 but basically, learn "gamesense" understand the mechanics of the game and understand the common behaviors players make such as counting their bullets shot, which weapons they have loaded, how much food they eaten, etc. This comes with many, many hours of game play but it's something you can keep in mind early too. 11. If you seem like you just can't improve at all of these points, try doing one thing at a time, such as only taking your time or only working on fort movement or only counting their shots. Once you mastered that then you can move on to the next mini goal. This enough notes for you? Also sidenote: don't listen to all of these other people in the comments being like "Oh just play whatever you have fun with, it's just a friendly pirate game" no, wrong. You must sweat and be the best, because let me tell you, being the best makes the game the most fun because it gives you the most freedom to do whatever you want. This might be a freedom pirate game but all those crab lords who claim that also get sinked by the sweatlords then cry that they got their freedom was ruined which simply makes them a toxic person. If you're the sweat then YOU can be the enforcer of your ideals, whether that be pveing in the corner of the map or sinking all ships on the server. No one can tell you otherwise when you can just kill and sink their ass. (even though this is only about tdming, don't even get me started on naval) Btw, this is my mindset of the game which is why I left sot because people now days just complain and complain about alleged toxicity because I sank you in the pirate videogame. It's not the game, it's the community. Also, Good luck on your journey to sweathood. PS If you really wanna btw sweaty, use keyboard and mouse. Using controller is a shackle to your skill ceiling.
I just wish they would fix the servers Brinf back Arena abd quick swap Make for limet 130 or at least 100 Nerf blunderbomb ladder gaurding (it has no counter) And make sword stun less annoying or simply remove it. (Give sword users infinite swings to compensate) This would make PvP feel way smoother
Nearly gold ghost with flintlock sword. The trick is not to use the sword for damage, use it for mobility and ladder guarding. 2-tap with the pistol is highly slept on and anyone who disrespects it simply isn't experienced enough to understand how strong it is... Plus have you ever skeeted someone off a sword lunge? Name a more euphoric experience, I'll wait.
Yes but better to have honest gameplay than to use cheats like other small SOT channels like to do (it's totally just skill, bro. Totally not cheating at all.)
Wrong, if you kill people with sword they call you sword spammer. If you kill people while using double gun they call you sweaty tryhard. Choose the option that suits you xd
I don't remember or think that motion blur is a setting in this game but that visual you showed when saying to turn it off is for the blur on ghost treasure 😅
And, veeeeryyy important remark: If you lost to a sword with a double gun - its 100% your personal skill issue, except for some rare occasions with hitreg. Yep, i am filthy sword user for a long time, not particularly skillful one, but i have around 200 sunken ships in pvp behind my back. And i know how to use sword properly. But, if you got killed by the guy with a sword, while having bussy in your loadout - this is your fault for 100%, you can oneshot sworder easily. If you got yourself cornered by the dude with the sword and can't reload - 100% skill issue. If you missed all 5 your bussy shots - need i say more? All in all if you got killed by a close range weapon (even tho it have mechanics and techs) with like highest ttk in the game - skill issue. Quit complaining and git good.
Sword and pistol is a GOOD combo, look at players like PhuzzyBond, ALSO make your own decision when it comes to you playstyle, "double gun" takes MAJOR skill and accuracy, so this not recommended for most players, best loadouts for movement and pvp/pve is sword and pistol I win 9/10 with this. He said "please stop" because he's probably lost to it many times.
Sword and pistol is something that i have legitimately never lost to in a 1v1. The only times i have lost to it is when there are two sword users guarding a ladder together.
@@Prokat_ you misspoke a whole ah point? (the whole point was that sniper does 50% but will still kill you at 60%, unless you meant to say sniper does 70% but still kills you at 80%, which would still be untrue)
Nice, thank you. There is something I want to know about guns. That you didn't answer ,But alas, I want to make the video myself. I subscribed for you though. good luck. Thanks.
@@Prokat_ well since i found the video ill tell you. It was sponge who answered me. About ads'ing vs non ads'ing. plus i tried it myself. I can kill skellys, without ads'ing, but only if its really close. I practiced for a while at skull forts. trying to do it all without ads'ing. F'ing Rare rigged it so you have to ads, at least a little. aka quick ads. also, as of last night, I couldn't fire my sniper, until i reached full scope, (literally couldn't quick ads) I would do the quick ads and the gun wouldn't fire unless i had reached full scope. wtf right. every game i have played, the makers continue to tweak it until they ruin it. I think we are almost there with SOT.
@@Death-gate Did you have toggle ads on (you have to press ads once to continue to aim down sight) that might be the issue. I had it like that for a while and reliably quick scoping was a pain. If you do try turning that off in settings so you have to hold ads and that may help you out.
You selected pineapple by opening your radial menu, and then selecting it from that menu by dragging your mouse over it, the you let the go of the key you had pressed all this time in order to select the pineapple. Also the time it took you to read all this, it's time you lost in a fight and you are teaching noobs like me how to play the game when the first thing i did is bind my bucket, planks, spyglass, shovel, food and throwables to the 6 buttons i have on the side of my Naga pro 3.

Not particuarly a hand-to-hand tip but this is for cannon aim.
Use the base skin or seadog skins for the cannons. You can use the rings on the barrel like distance indicators on a scope or rifle.

It is usually faster than X canceling. This requires you to be walking forward though, so the best way is to interchange sprint canceling with X canceling depending on your situation. Try these methods on skeletons.
7. Record yourself to see how you suck so you can improve quicker.
8. Be in control of your movement. Don't bump into walls, or slip off rocks or do things to mess up your movement. It's ok to break eyesight with your enemy briefly to look where you're going and improve your movement.
9. For team fights, be aware of all the enemys. You might get tunnel vison on your target and not notice their team mate behind you. It's ok to break a fight for a moment to get the advantage later. I learn this from playing tf2, always spy check.
10. A little bit like number 9 but basically, learn "gamesense" understand the mechanics of the game and understand the common behaviors players make such as counting their bullets shot, which weapons they have loaded, how much food they eaten, etc. This comes with many, many hours of game play but it's something you can keep in mind early too.
11. If you seem like you just can't improve at all of these points, try doing one thing at a time, such as only taking your time or only working on fort movement or only counting their shots. Once you mastered that then you can move on to the next mini goal.
This enough notes for you?
Also sidenote: don't listen to all of these other people in the comments being like "Oh just play whatever you have fun with, it's just a friendly pirate game" no, wrong. You must sweat and be the best, because let me tell you, being the best makes the game the most fun because it gives you the most freedom to do whatever you want. This might be a freedom pirate game but all those crab lords who claim that also get sinked by the sweatlords then cry that they got their freedom was ruined which simply makes them a toxic person. If you're the sweat then YOU can be the enforcer of your ideals, whether that be pveing in the corner of the map or sinking all ships on the server. No one can tell you otherwise when you can just kill and sink their ass. (even though this is only about tdming, don't even get me started on naval)
Btw, this is my mindset of the game which is why I left sot because people now days just complain and complain about alleged toxicity because I sank you in the pirate videogame. It's not the game, it's the community.
Also, Good luck on your journey to sweathood. PS If you really wanna btw sweaty, use keyboard and mouse. Using controller is a shackle to your skill ceiling.
guys Toolshed is so good at SoT he taught me how to tdm
Sword is also amazing to guard ladders, just swordlunge to yeet someone off
I clicked on this. I thought it was a stereotype video lol
i ONLY use the British special to prove the double gunning pirates wrong, MY WAYS SHALL SOON BE RESPECTED!!!
"I love blunderbus"
Yeah your aim shows this 😂
You need the 1 shot
I just wish they would fix the servers
Brinf back Arena abd quick swap
Make for limet 130 or at least 100
Nerf blunderbomb ladder gaurding (it has no counter)
And make sword stun less annoying or simply remove it. (Give sword users infinite swings to compensate)
This would make PvP feel way smoother
ah yes, blunder, more complicated than sword.
very nice video man.
Nearly gold ghost with flintlock sword. The trick is not to use the sword for damage, use it for mobility and ladder guarding. 2-tap with the pistol is highly slept on and anyone who disrespects it simply isn't experienced enough to understand how strong it is... Plus have you ever skeeted someone off a sword lunge? Name a more euphoric experience, I'll wait.
holy your gameplay made my eyes bleed
Sorry he's not using 120 and skin changers... smh my head
@@hundredcloth1906 skin changers and fov dont improve your aim, movement and reflexes
yeah, im not great but i thought it would be better to have L gameplay then steal someone elses
Yes but better to have honest gameplay than to use cheats like other small SOT channels like to do (it's totally just skill, bro. Totally not cheating at all.)
The two replies in this comment about "cheating" having me rolling on the floor and having me kicking my feet in the air
bind run to rb, seems weird but trust me best decision i’ve ever made in this game
I used sword blunderbuss for pve
Don't use a sword.. yet everyone we get sunk by are rockin' swords... ??
dont use the sword isn't because its bad its because the community will dog on you for it lmao
@@Prokat_ oh lol
Wrong, if you kill people with sword they call you sword spammer. If you kill people while using double gun they call you sweaty tryhard. Choose the option that suits you xd
knife and blunderbuss is the future
this gut does not know what he's talking about holy
Anything in specific? I'd love to know what i got wrong lol
@@Prokat_ snipe does 70
I don't remember or think that motion blur is a setting in this game but that visual you showed when saying to turn it off is for the blur on ghost treasure 😅
The only thing I ever use is sniper blunder no I dont play adventure
Swords can be very useful if you know how to use them
And, veeeeryyy important remark: If you lost to a sword with a double gun - its 100% your personal skill issue, except for some rare occasions with hitreg. Yep, i am filthy sword user for a long time, not particularly skillful one, but i have around 200 sunken ships in pvp behind my back. And i know how to use sword properly. But, if you got killed by the guy with a sword, while having bussy in your loadout - this is your fault for 100%, you can oneshot sworder easily. If you got yourself cornered by the dude with the sword and can't reload - 100% skill issue. If you missed all 5 your bussy shots - need i say more? All in all if you got killed by a close range weapon (even tho it have mechanics and techs) with like highest ttk in the game - skill issue.
Quit complaining and git good.
Can you elaborate on why you don't like certain loadouts?
Its more what the community thinks about the loadouts then my opinion lol
This video is actually goated
Sword and snipe is the only kit that bilge should have so its definitley not uneffective
Very good tip for double gunners: hit your shots and pray hitreg won't fk u over have a good day :)
Snipers do 75% damage btw.
Sword and pistol is a GOOD combo, look at players like PhuzzyBond, ALSO make your own decision when it comes to you playstyle, "double gun" takes MAJOR skill and accuracy, so this not recommended for most players, best loadouts for movement and pvp/pve is sword and pistol I win 9/10 with this. He said "please stop" because he's probably lost to it many times.
Sword and pistol is something that i have legitimately never lost to in a 1v1. The only times i have lost to it is when there are two sword users guarding a ladder together.
@@Prokat_ thats because everyone sucks at the game now, i havent had a good fight in months
I love baiting sword users into the throwing knife heavy attack. Knife flintlock is my preferred pvp loadout. But I’m a pve scrub so what do I know.
I use pistol sword and Imo its a good combo. Well atleast I find success with it
For me blunderbuss and throwing knives are the best for me
can forget about the one tuck blunder strat
Subscribed homie 🤝
Update: the knives are OP af in PvP. y’all were just bitching because you weren’t used to them
Knives are the way
Nah I’m definitely taking the British load out
More advanced tip; dont use controller because 9/10 times a pc player will roll you
@@ABFlewBy cap
@@Prokat_ I guess our opinions differ but that is fine

Regarding we don't use ships. We use guns. Isn't it ironic that your right? New players are led to believe otherwise. lol.
Is cnc tdm a thing? The non consensual tdm seems fun but is obviously morally abhorrent so what if we like, pretend or something?
LMAO
Daggers master race. Also I'd say that Sniper + Blunder is the cringe loadout as well, literally everyone uses it without thinking
is it just me but I can't skip NO ad. not even 1
5:05 i thought snipers did 70 dmg? or did they change it i haven't played in a while
It twas a misspeak
@@Prokat_ you misspoke a whole ah point? (the whole point was that sniper does 50% but will still kill you at 60%, unless you meant to say sniper does 70% but still kills you at 80%, which would still be untrue)
Double gunning is an exploit that makes you shoot a little faster not using two guns
It is also used to describe using two weapons nowadays
@@Prokat_ I haven’t played in along time so I didn’t know they changed the meaning of the term
i want you to get monetized so im subbing
I thought sniper did 70 damage? Not 50% of your health
1:50 what blunderbuss is that?
@@nolan2628 it was a twitch drop
@@Prokat_ dang it it’s so cool looking
@@Prokat_ but ty
Nice, thank you. There is something I want to know about guns. That you didn't answer ,But alas, I want to make the video myself. I subscribed for you though. good luck. Thanks.
what did you want to know?
@@Prokat_ well since i found the video ill tell you. It was sponge who answered me. About ads'ing vs non ads'ing. plus i tried it myself. I can kill skellys, without ads'ing, but only if its really close. I practiced for a while at skull forts. trying to do it all without ads'ing. F'ing Rare rigged it so you have to ads, at least a little. aka quick ads. also, as of last night, I couldn't fire my sniper, until i reached full scope, (literally couldn't quick ads) I would do the quick ads and the gun wouldn't fire unless i had reached full scope. wtf right. every game i have played, the makers continue to tweak it until they ruin it. I think we are almost there with SOT.
@@Death-gate Did you have toggle ads on (you have to press ads once to continue to aim down sight) that might be the issue. I had it like that for a while and reliably quick scoping was a pain. If you do try turning that off in settings so you have to hold ads and that may help you out.
@@ExoticDvaill check
spam jump if you're in a bluderbuss range
Yuh
You selected pineapple by opening your radial menu, and then selecting it from that menu by dragging your mouse over it, the you let the go of the key you had pressed all this time in order to select the pineapple. Also the time it took you to read all this, it's time you lost in a fight and you are teaching noobs like me how to play the game when the first thing i did is bind my bucket, planks, spyglass, shovel, food and throwables to the 6 buttons i have on the side of my Naga pro 3.
I play on controller my guy
And i have food bound to rb its just hard to break a 2+ year muscle memory
"don't use sword" :D Hehe seems someone is getting roasted by sword lords quite often, ya? :D
I am a sword lord bro im talking about the communities opinions lil bro
@@Prokat_you said “lil bro” anything you said is immediately bad lmfao
