seeing this video come out during the whole controversy over safer seas reminds me that regardless of what happens with the game it is still our pirate game, where we can be the buccaneers we always wanted. also thank you Captain for the incredible ending to this, youve inspired me to finally make my own sea of thieves content and build a channel :) thank you Captain Thorrork, it has been an honor!
Safer seas is perfect nothing worse when idiots roll up on you when you clearly tell them your a solo just trying to earn gold and friendly only for them to sink your ship when trying to grind
@@cm93431my man, however you're not wrong, it can be annoying.. BUT This game is called Sea of *THIEVES* *THIEEEEEEEVES* So stop whining about people stealing your stuff.
I use the sea forts in combination with emissary voyages. Do the sea forts and combine them with the small island digs. When you get to grade 5 sell, grab your emissary voyage, lower, and reraise. If you want to risk it you don't have to sell and can hold out for gold rush but you still need to go grab your emissary flag and reset the flag.
Posting this after watching the entire video, you have a great energy and personality for making videos. Dont over think the editing as most people love a true 1 or 2 take personality as its raw and real. That will help you not waste as much time until this picks up for you, also dont worry about the content being new or ground breaking it can be of stuff that has already been done. It helps to have multiple versions of things as many leave a lot out, your vid on the forts just now shed a little light I wasn't aware of but have seen exact videos of the same stuff but you went more indepth and probably didn't even mean too. Keep it up!
Thank you very much my friend :D This is some really good advice, much appreciated, and it really hit spot on, as I often do worry a bit about making content that has already been done. But as you say, I often also watch videos about the exact same topic from several TH-camrs as they often have unique bits about the topic. Glad to hear I'm not the only one :D
@@captainthorrork2420 Totally yea you keep doing you and even videos about anything are still interesting for most especially when the person creating them is decently authentic which will come from not over thinking it. You got this!
Made my first million yesterday off of mostly sea forts, treasuries and occasional hourglass. Will probably make pirate legend today or tomorrow because I only have merchant left to finish I think sea forts should be how solo sloops should start their sessions. You get more than enough to pay for a supply crate, pine apples, 100 or so cannon balls, 50-100 wood, and cooked meat from the fort
I only had your channel recommended to me the other day, don't remember which video. But I have been binge watching it every day since. I love the content, the style of narration, and I have gone on to do some of the things you talk about in the videos for my own grind. Thank you so much for what you do. I will of course be continuing to watch.
Thank you so, so much my friend, both for your kind words and for watching all my videos :D The algorithm has been very kind to some of my videos and less so on others, so it really helps me out and is just in every way greatly appreciated when people watch all of them like you ^^ So happy to hear you like them :D
Thanks for being so honest i hope you get the viewers you deserve and that your following what your feeling even tho it's not the best for the amount of money you get
Yes sea forts are amazing especially with the double XP and gold also you can so much food,planks and cannon balls also its great for escaping gallons you want to stay 2 tiles away
I know that many people complain about youtubers asking for money but from what I have seen you put out quality content and have worked very hard at it. I totally respect the grind even to get this far. As I was a small content creator myself (just shy of 400 subs when I stopped) I found that a more lucrative approach, that I saw with PhuzzyBond seems to work quite well, was making videos for youtube, but half of them being a sort of voiceover over a cool happening over on the Twitch channel. Through streamelements tips when I was really small I didn't get much, but on Twitch people seemed more inclined to donate xD. Keep it up man, cause the content is looking really good and I think you will definitely make it somewhere even more so than now!
I once farmed sea forts like crazy for an afternoon (played about 6h straight) and i made in total 1.2 mil by selling at reapers (without any multipliers like gold rush or community day). i prefer to keep the loot on my ship and keep it close to the fort for two reasons : i don't want my ship going to the red sea, and i don't want loot despawning or someone stealing the loot on the fort. Also a good tip : when i'm playing with a friend, he usually drops me off to the shrine of tribute for a bit more loot (and a chest of ancient tribute), to progress the commendations, (and the shrine of tribute is one of the easiest shrines in the game, so that's cool), i finish the shrine before my friend finishes the fort usually.
Another alt to fishing for hunters call is killing all the snakes on snake island. Thats a lot of free snake meat! Put it all in a crate and speed cook it at one those french forts. Merchant lvling is probably better doing the captain quests where you deliver stuff or “find the sunken ship” quest if you’re any good at that. Finally reached pirate legend last week. Now to figure to learning pvp >.< My brain probably too slow compared to others but best to learn how to at least be annoying to take down instead of “ok, just sink me. Idc.”
Respect for the youtube grind with such little pay. I think your one of the funniest and most helpful sea of thieves youtubers ive seen so far from only ONE video. Amazing man keep it up. I wish i could subscribe more than one time 💓
Thank you so much my friend :D It helps a lot to have such an awesome community rooting for this channel's success, and it help super much with comments and watching the whole video, so thank you for that my friend ❤
As a newer player i love sea forts. I usually raise a reaper flag and hourglass until i win one then stop. I get put at emmisary lvl 3 and 3/4 then ijust spam sea forts get as much loot as possible and sell
I mean, my crew always does a fort at the start of any voyage just for the cannonballs. We hit the sea with hundreds after that. The other supplies and the loot doesn't hurt either.
I don't know if it's because I'm a noob at the game or not but every piece of loot I get makes me happy. Even if a reaper chases me into the cloudy parts if the map and I lose it all. Had someone chase me and we both sunk and got no loot. Why are some so desperate for a fight?
I think some great video ideas for your channel would be challenge videos, for example trying to get a bunch of loot while only sailing ok a row boat on a rowboat, and to make it more challenging in the devils roar.
sea forts are nice when the key actually spawns iv hunted the entire fort with lantern raised time and time again and after looking over every inch, there was no key for the upper store room
“Bro grinding for a ship is so hard” “In maiden voyage near the wrecked ship there is a puddle within it there’s a key that opens the ships cellar that has 25K gold leave the tutorial after taking the gold and then rejoin and redo takes about a minute to do it each time”
...amen on the year, buddy. You're doing great in life, keep it up. But what I wanted to say was... all gems to the hunter's call. If you ever want to max it, they get them all from day one. P.s. I think the community more or less agreed to take it easy on people doing the forts, buuuut on the seas... they's more guidelines then arcual rulezzz so keep an eye out especially when ya solo, and the "leave ya alone" doesn't apply if you're stacking them... so you sell as your reset.
Oh yeah... the forts have FOUR STOVES for cooking up that fish, and any kracken/Megladon meat that interrupted your sailing. DO loot the whole place more or less... the side loot adds up rather well and you'll quickly learn when you got it all. That food is how you level hunter's call. The gems make it doable. Fishing... that's for like... achievement hunting. Don't grind with a pole, son. Get a net.
Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish. Not understand very well pair on things: 1 you can rise flag of emisary just before sell their goods? 2 You just left all treasures outside the fort meanwhile you go to the other?
Your channel is our go-to for gaming recommendations! Don't miss out on Corsairs Legacy's free story demo-it's a lot like Sea of Thieves, and we'd love to see your take on it!
True, but if you go to the top of the fort between waves you can get a good overlook of the surrounding waters so it is easier to keep aware of your surroundings than on big islands
At 11:12 did you just move the chests around inside the storage room after finishing to stop them was despawing instead of moving the outside the room? Kind of like the same logic as with FOTD stacking?
I put them there for a screenshot and moved them out before leaving the fort. I think anything inside the room despawns when the fort respawns even if you move it around, but not completely certain of it
Ad revenue is weird. I know a TH-camr who only gets 130k views a month but he makes over 10k a month on ad revenue alone. Length of the video and viewer retention has HUGE effect on this
-refering to end of video the living shouldnt be an issue because although you said sea if thieves wont have that following. other things will. if you get to that point just broaden your content. youd gain more than youd lose
@@ploffs I've been in shock for the last couple of days. I didn't know the power of the castaway chests had grown to such strenghts to make this "myself" promote their existance. I fear it is not long until they take over our entire society and we all exclaim "all hail the castaway chests, our rightful masters!"
It's the Merchant set you get from the emissary ledger, though with the Triumphant Sea Dog sails from the Arena. You can still get the ship set, but not the sails I'm using
I don't understand why you do all this extra stuff. Literally just go to a fort park. Your ship at the entryway for the treasure grab, take out them. Move all the loop to your boat. Go to the ferry of the damned wait 5 minutes and the forts reactivated and ready to go.
A mix between different clothing sets, soverign hat, gloves and boots with admiral jacket and shirt, and some redcoat pants with some various accessories
I haven't had it happen for me yet, and I've stacked like 16+ I think as maximum and the loot was still there :D I think as long as you don't get server-switched it won't despawn, and I can't even remember last time I got server-switched (you notice when it happens as you will get stuck in place and some text will fade in and out on your screen) Hope it helped my friend ^^
I'm releasing a TTRPG book in the very near future that how a focus on piracy and sea adventures. I would love and be honored to be a potential sponsor in the future. Also, great videos btw, 3rd one I've watched in a row.

True, but if you go to the top of the fort between waves you can get a good overlook of the surrounding waters so it is easier to keep aware of your surroundings than on big islands
Also you can pull up to the front and park within 10 feet and do the whole thing from your sloop

Great video! Maybe we could get another video when the game launches on the PS5 soon!
i just do them to get supplies and a few emissary ranks to get started on games.. i wouldn't do this to rank up though. take forever.
I'm confuse, if you do fortress but let the loot inside, doesn't it de-spawn when fortress reset ?
