The gold hoarder cutlass resembling a machete sort of makes sense, considering that the Ancient Isles are supposed to be Gold Hoarder territory. Definitely fits the feel of trudging through the jungle and chopping through vines on the hunt for loot.
The fact they have different styles of sword for a few of the sets (cutless, heavy sword and rapier) makes me kinda want them to full on add those types as different melee weapon option's, keeping the skins just makinh the "heavy swords" play different than cutlass's
8:16 Nailed it. I wish Rare would stop making cosmetics that are an horrendous amalgamation of gold, jewels, and glow sticks for fortnite kids to buy, and instead make more simple pirate cosmetics based on concept art and the alpha/beta of the game. Or even better, don't create anything new if it's a ton of work, just release those hundreds of cosmetics and sets that have been collecting dust in the files of the game since it came out.
Bonecrusher is an Orks Choppa Gold Hoarder's is an Ork Warboss' Choppa Also I've come to adore the Merchant's Alliance ledger for a reliable source of classy, non gaudy Pirate gear. Their ship is sleek and professional looking, their weapons aren't over the top. It gives me the vibe of a seasoned pirate or captain who may not raid and pillage anymore, but can always be relied upon and runs their ship right.
Merrick's Cutlass is a harpoon. It looks like its supposed to be a harpoon that is used as a sword (Love the fishing themed stuff). The style roughly based on older 19th century whailing harpoons, which makes sense as the Sea of Thieves is based on that general time frame.
The golden age of sail was around at the start of the 18th century, not the 19th. Past 1750, you could consider piracy as being already well on its way out. I really don't know much at all about harpoons, but I would presume the design can't have really changed overtime?
I've used the legendary cutlass for years, but the Ferryman's cutlass won me over again, so I let the TSD title say "I played Arena" instead. It's a nice looking sword, with an awesome design. When I get the Fortune pistol, they'll work quite well together.
The red on the Admiral cutlass might be emulating the cloth liners sometimes seen on basket-hilted swords in real life. It's shaped a bit wrong (the metal of the hilt still needs to be actually connected to the blade if you want it to work as a sword), but the overall impression is very "Scottish broadsword". Also, none of the "rapiers" in-game are actual rapiers; they're more accurately termed smallswords or foils, basically barbecue skewers with hilts. A true rapier is an inch across the base of the blade and long enough to come up to the user's armpit; it is _not_ a delicate weapon.
There is one emporium sword that looks like a legitimate rapier, of the Silver Sepulchre set. Beside a dog and parrot, that's the only other emporium thing I bought.
I have used the sovereign cutlass as long as I can remember… one of the only good looking gold swords in my opinion, and it wasn’t that hard to earn either.
kinda surprised you didn't mention the energy sword, especially when you were using the pose to show off the other weapons. personally i rock it, and i guess you did mention not liking microtransactions and neon whatever, but me personally, i like halo too much so i just use it because it's nostalgic and cool
The party boat cutlass makes me think more of the Monkey Island referencing. One of the sword fighting insults was "Soon you'll be wearing my sword like a shish kebab!" and the counter was "First you'd better stop waving it like a feather duster."
The Sunken Sorrow guns do look really ridiculous, but the Sword, strangely, doesn't match the preview perfectly. I think it looks a lot better when it's held than in the preview.
I always thought the Relic of Darkness Cutlass was cool because it looks like something The Spy would use. Also I find myself using the Shish-Kabob sword a lot. Fits the fisherman/solitary survivalist theme i like a lot, yk?
@@Bacxaber hes a bad person and hes fucking annoying, jesus christ on lucidtf2s ufr podcast he dedicates 15 minutes every episode to whining about how much of a victim he is, yeah turns out when you’re a vindictive and instigating asshole who is also a bad person behind the scenes people done like you
if you take away the gold plates on the end of the fates of fortune cutlass, and just have it finish out like a regular sword/cutlass, i think it would be one of the best in the game. i really like the design other than the unnecessary bits at the end
The Bilge Rat sword tells everyone "I don't need to be fancy to kill you." I personally like it because it really shows you how desperate you are by using what's essentially a broken sword held together with duct tape
i personally fucking love the chefs "cutlass", in my oppinion them ore silly the better. like my character looks disgusting and i love that really weird like "how did this guy get here, how has he survived this long" kind of look, i also like to use the party cutlass with the blooming blunderbuss because i have a crazy day from pvz pirate i use some times, it looks really fitting.
Btw Bacxaber you probably are already aware but you can get a Order of Souls Rapier. Which I think looks really good but the concern about the rapier is the Order of Souls carvings on the blade.
The best thing said in this video is "this is what Rare doesn't understand, the bad skins in this game look like neon Fortnite or WoW... we need simple pirate things" YES. I have not bought shit from the emporium in a long time because I look at these skins like "wtf about this says pirate? this is a pirate game. you wanna have a theme cool... but mf make it PIRATE"
The Heavy Swords look like they’re based on a type of falchion, although much heavier looking than falchion’s normally are. My only problem with them is the blades end up looking way wider than they should be. Merrick’s Cutlass looks like a miniature halberd or pole-arm of some kind, maybe the leftovers of a harpoon or something? The Eastern Winds style swords look like they’re based on Chinese bladed weapons, most likely the Dao and probably a Dakandao specifically. Would have definitely preferred a red rapier like what was shown but I will say the Ruby Blade looks like it’s made out of obsidian or some kind of blood-stained volcanic glass. It could make sense, and I’d say that kind of weapon would be prone to shattering but who knows how sturdy seemingly magical or cursed stuff in Sea of Thieves is. I’d love to see them add in more rapiers as well, and perhaps some katana-style weapons or just more unique weapons like that khopesh, like a seax or a shotel, or maybe a viking-style arming sword or a Scottish broadsword. Shotels look like mini scythes so how fun would it be to have a shotel for doing something as part of the Reapers?
@@Bacxaber they do, they look a bit too soft on the edges and too wide in the center imo, fairly nice color scheme like you said but wish they looked more… real?
Ok if they wanted to make flameheart's sword look threatening, then they shouldn't have made the bit after the blade connects to the gaurd be so small. It looks more like it would be broken when the first sword collides into it. OR Better yet make flameheart have a more cutlass that is barbed or looks like the blade that has a point that curves back like a hook. AND if they want an orky blade, Then take reference from Freebootaz with swords, not the shit from warcraft.
I couldnt agree more on this video❤, you nailed It. "Basic" is good, we dont want those ugly overdone fortnite skins, we want pirate shit! Same goes for Clothing btw, why arent there just some good looking basic leather hats, like the golden sailor hat. I feel like every good looking hat is either not obtainable anymore or is locked behind a lot of money or commendations...
Ngl, I want them to add more sword types. A turkish yataghan, a longsword, maybe a chinese sword cause they also were pirates, maybe get some axes as skins since we're probably not getting another pure melee
Now you’ve upset the sword lords for talking bad on the spatula, lol But I’m sad because the Captain’s Rapier and the Heavy Captain’s Sword didn’t make the cut 😞
I'm hoping that they don't introduce the Athena's Might Cutlass back into the shops. I was a bit disappointed when the OG Athena curse was added back into the shops, but I kinda knew it was coming eventually.
Sometimes I use the first one (admiral cutlass) w the reaper costume. Decent match. I also use the reapers heart sword w various combos. Mainly because all 3 of my captain ships have rose themed sets and I believe hearts and Rose's match and the reds are similar.
I know it literally just came out this past week but i think the captain's week rapier is one the very best swords in the game, solid gold and steel colors, classic swept hilt and i also love the rapiers
I like the more slick designs and absolutely despise anything that looks more like a shovel than a sword (these broad blades would be soooo heavy). But I could never settle for one sword to use. That was until I put my hands on the captain's rapier. That thing is amazing and I never touched any other sword since I got it.
I use the Bone Crusher sword - not the recolor, but the original. It's this rusted, bent blade that looks like it was carved from solid metal rather than actually forged, and it definitely looks unique (plus barely anyone else has it). The rib/tusk/whatever they exactly are used as guards, and the bird skull on the end of the handle, as well as the leather - it works really well. Yeah it looks like a blunt weapon, but it's covered in rust and held together with straps. It makes sense it wouldn't be in great condition. Other swords, like even the Ashen Dragon one, do get a bit of a boost in my book for having nice little ornaments on the ends of the handles. Also I think Briggsy's is meant to be, like, bronze or copper or something, since gold is quite soft and impractical (though molten metal is more impractical still but that sword is regardless an amazing one). 6:15 That right there is an Ashen Dragon set item, unfortunately. Look at the dragon head on the handle, plus the Ashen Dragon (the actual ship) is a crew of skeletons so it lines up. Still looks pretty cool, that, actually. Reaper's Heart stuff is based on that original parrot, hence the wings. I really like the Reaper's Heart cutlass though - the eerie red energy does compliment the gold and black nicely. That new Gold Hoarder heavy cutlass is really overdone to me. It's trying to be, as a whole, one of the skeleton keys, but it doesn't work - the blade's damage is the teeth of it, the handle's overbuilt section the key's ring, etc. Just doesn't work. The Athena's Might sword is really cool to me because while getting slapped with it would be, as with many swords, a blunt hit, it uses the border of the AF logo as the guard and I love that. The twisting design at the base of the Legendary Spirit and Ghost swords is really cool to me. Though the latter would be worthless at blocking when a sword swings through that gap in it. The Tribute Peak sword would look nicer if it were just the emerald blade, rather than having been.. dipped in molten coins, I think it's supposed to be. I love the straps or whatever the are with their faint writing on the Masked Renegade stuff. The rest of that sword.. it's like a secondary blade you keep, a dagger for combat rather than voting, for when you lose your usual sword.
@@Bacxaber Well it's what the metal seems to be. I don't know why Rare, with access to at least thirty different premade gold textures, would do that otherwise.
That definitely isn't the ashen dragon sword, people claim "it's being held at a weird angle" but that isn't the case based on the direction of the pommel. The most obvious giveaway is that the blade stops at the glowy bits, where there would otherwise be black metal surrounding it and obscuring the bones. As for the glowing blade and the pommel, just look at the ashen dragon cutlass and then look back, they're nothing alike. Hey, actually, since they're adding rapiers to sets now, maybe that's just the ashen dragon light cutlass? It definitely isn't the current ashen dragon cutlass, though.
I think reading the descriptions for the swords would have explained the thought behind the designs. Although expecting a SoT player to know how to read would be to much in my opinion.
12:15 Okay but there’s one good thing about this sword. You can see your friend is using the sovereign cutlass, equip this thing, and tell them your sword is bigger.
The curved handles and other types not aligned to the blade are very much a real life thing, mostly seen on very curved slashers (and straight stabbers) like the saber in question. A straight handle is preferred for more multi-function blades and chopping motions, which are all things you can do with an actual cutlass (straight blade and a point but also a nice curve to its edge and a higher center of balance, as well an enveloping handguard). It's also the only practical option for a two-handed weapon
I still prefer the fan design, but being the _same_ sword wouldn't make sense I suppose. Fan design looks like the reapers created a copy out of different materials.
Scurvy Bilge Rat Cutlass was my favorite for a minute It was unavailable for like 3 full years, and so it was rarer than a ferryman sword for a time, and it sports a very dark iron blade, chipped up I even got a real-life replica of it i loved it so much
Potty mouth
The gold hoarder cutlass resembling a machete sort of makes sense, considering that the Ancient Isles are supposed to be Gold Hoarder territory. Definitely fits the feel of trudging through the jungle and chopping through vines on the hunt for loot.
The GH heavy sword reminds me of the breaker blade and idk why
Yea

That would be neat but then we end up with one type of sword being "the meta" and i think they want to avoid that
i’m glad I found someone who has the same idea
@@gewuerzwanze5627 honestly it'd be a tad more interesting than the current minecraft swing swordplay we have. A little variety would be nice y'know?
Or the rapier having more range and lunge attacks
@@connorludwig8472 yaaasss a longer range lunge would be cool
"Captain Bones' Original Pirate Cutlass" is probably my favorite. It is a big clunky, and the skull is big, but it is a skull tho.
I agree, absolutely love the look of it
8:16 Nailed it.

I get Merrick's sword is supposed to be more of a fishing spear, but it just looks like a bayonette on a stick
I know it'd look silly using one as a slashing weapon, but it should've been a harpoon.

12:15 Okay but there’s one good thing about this sword. You can see your friend is using the sovereign cutlass, equip this thing, and tell them your sword is bigger.
11:02 i'm so glad we're actually getting that rapier in the upcoming ashen expedition thing.
Indeed.
@Bacxaber just hope it's the more metallic red and doesn't have the waxy texture in game
How do you feel about the captains rapier, from the captaincy weekend?
It's great, but I prefer the GH rapier.
8:58 I thought khopeshs were held the other direction?
I think the ruby stinger Cutlass looks like red sea glass that hasn't fully fogged up. I like it but i can definitely see why some wouldn't
The curved handles and other types not aligned to the blade are very much a real life thing, mostly seen on very curved slashers (and straight stabbers) like the saber in question.
A straight handle is preferred for more multi-function blades and chopping motions, which are all things you can do with an actual cutlass (straight blade and a point but also a nice curve to its edge and a higher center of balance, as well an enveloping handguard). It's also the only practical option for a two-handed weapon
You called the flame blade sword or whatever it’s called in season 13
I still prefer the fan design, but being the _same_ sword wouldn't make sense I suppose. Fan design looks like the reapers created a copy out of different materials.
Scurvy Bilge Rat Cutlass was my favorite for a minute
It was unavailable for like 3 full years, and so it was rarer than a ferryman sword for a time, and it sports a very dark iron blade, chipped up
I even got a real-life replica of it i loved it so much
My favorite sword got a "fk u Rare" 😂
+1, Ruby Stinger is dope af :}
@@NNYBG looks stupid, like it was carved out of a red jellybean
@@PineappleElephant68 exactly, imagine being slapped in the face with a giant jellybean :D
Merricks is so uniqe, Im working towards the ghost sword but I love Merricks
What I would really like is a full black rapier. I would use it every time for sure.
Briggsy's sword is my go-to, because it looks like real gold, but behaves like steel. That, and I want a real version of it.
Great Video!
nahhhhh the spatula is S tier at least
8:15 big facts
maybe the khopesh in oos is like that bc egyptian mythology has a lot of references to the afterlife? dont quote me on that.
burning blade is A tier for me
The order of souls cutlass, for being a unique one, looks pretty ass if you ask me, but I use it nonetheless
I never knuw that of the ruby stinger kutlles but it's pising me of.
Another amazing ranking vid ❤
My ship is the Krusty Krab and my crew has the spatula for obvious reasons
The new Gold Hoarder Light Cutlass is one of my new favorite swords. I fucking love it.
bro that one?? the one with the key on it?
@@ferreisd495 the light one. The one that looks more like a saber.
FACTS.
@@alanolex3962bro it looks ugly as 4uck
@@alanolex3962 no offense
that fate of fortune sword is a real fav, but nothing tops the legendary seadog sword..that is if you use swords
I love and use pendragons sword but my main issue with it is that the pommel looks big, idk why it just looks uncomfortable to hold in my Opinion.
I played the game in season one, then stopped and came back for season nine. I kinda regret how many cool cosmetics I missed tho.
