I've been PvPing since Alpha and decided to make a guide on absolutely everything you need to know in as little time as possible! Watch LIVE: / blurbs Discord: / discord Twitter: / blurbstv Instagram: / blurbsttv
@@especiallycontent9616 Given how they pitched it as a social game since launch, yes. Also sitting was implemented quite awfully, as now the edge of a pier or a boat are essentially minefields for potential missed inputs that force you into an emote.
Bro I can't thank you enough for the PACE of this video. Every guide for every type of tip is like twenty minutes long and doesn't even cover a third of what you just got through. Guides like this respect the viewers ability to use the pause button and have a brain. Thank you!
One of my proudest PvP moments in Sea of Thieves was sinking an absolutely loaded Reaper brig with one chain shot. They had a couple of stronghold barrels in their crow’s nest and I just happened to be trying to take their mast down. It might have been an accident but it was an awesome one!
i disagree with your statement on emissaries. from my experience people just try to kill you anyway so the only factor in deciding wether to raise an emissary or not is 'is there a reaper on the server' if there is and they aren't farming skeletons serverhop. if there isn't raise it and get that extra rep and gold in on your way to pirate legend since 90% of the time you're marked for pvp simply by existing.
ive had literally nothing. like 0 supplies in everything, and been hunted down regardless some people just enjoy the thrill of combat ig. so yeah i agree, emissary or not im gonna get attacked lol might as well put it up
@kortlinbaker1114 happened to me yesterday I was friendly to new spawn on uncaptained ship offered alliance since we were selling and the id10ts attacked us 2 person gally against full crew of legends it was sad
@@kigut7443 Yeah I’m a noob. I am like on day 3 of the game and I can confirm my experienced buddy and I absolutely nuked another moon boat for absolutely no reason. He figured they had good loot. Turns out they were flat broke and poor carrying barely any supplies and we wasted a powder keg on them. The whole affair took less than 3 minutes because I don’t even think they realized we were attacking them until that charge went off and they sank before they could respawn. I am both ashamed and oddly satisfied with knowing a good powder keg can deal insane damage to a ship. In the words of my extremely blood thirsty friend “ Welcome to Sea of Thieves fools “ 😅 but we made an alliance later with a kid who out classes us and he saved us from getting sunk by these other two who kept attacking us, then running away, attacking us, running away, while we were trying to hit a skeleton fort for some loot. We just couldn’t seem to catch up to them. It’s rough out there on that sea. It be full of thieves! 😂
I always recommend to keep your sails trimmed as well! It's much easier to lower sails than it is to raise them, and should your mast go down the higher your sail is the less wraveling you'll have to do in order to hoist your mast back upwards! Trimmed sails also allow for better visibility and are necessary on masts like the first mast of the brig where the sail can completely obscure your vision over the bow!
This video was fast-paced but not too fast to the point where I can't understand what is going on. You gave a perfect explanation of the PVP moves that most decent players use, and helped me out a lot more thanmost videos that cover basic and common-sense things, such as one i watched was all about repairing your ship when there were holes in it, 35 minutes on just the best "repairing strat". Thank you for this video, it was so fast paced that i will remember most of this stuff.
The only thing you need to know about SoT pvp tips is to not play solo. The game is so punishing to solo players I basically refuse to play solo at this point. You just can’t 1v4 you don’t have the man power to repair the ship, return canon fire, keep the other crew off your ship, and stop the other crew from repairing. Not to mention if you die or get blasted off your ship in a 1v4 it’s over you going to just get spawn camped till your ship sinks. They really need to do something to help solo players deal with this, because it’s not fun to just lose by default because they have 4 people.
Rewatch needed to properly absorb all info but 14 mins is still really good for a guide this informative. Y’all Sea of Thieves you tubers are a godsend
Im french so i played this video at 0,75 speed to make it easier for me ! At that speed , blurbs sounds drunk and its hilarious ! Thanks for everything sir !
Super helpful. I get so nervouse at pvp..i pull everything but my weapons out 😭. Will try your tips and hopefully, they will get me more confidant in pvping.
They won't. This game is horrible, and so is the community. Don't expect to ever get better because the only people that play this hot garbage are things like this guy that eat breathe and sleep this. You'll never gain a foothold in this unless they leave, which they won't because this is all they know.
Omg thank you, I just switched back to sword flintlock but I used to double gun. I’m not very good at the game and if I use sword I get double gunned and if I double gun I get sword lorded, I never thought of the sword lunge lead thing,
Hey Blurbs 👋 great vid broski, appreciate the tips. 1 quick question tho, what are your thoughts on fighting a good double gunner as a sword/EoR user? Is it simply b-hops and strafing, praying they miss their shots while closing distance? For me, the Bluderbuss/EoR combo is very difficult to deal with.
hey ik im late and i’m not blurbs but i would just like to say that you should keep your distance and use your gun then once they shoot there other gun or even better there blunder bust go in for the kill and NEVER let them reload what i mean is that you should apply pressure as soon as they shoot and if they still have their blunder bust reload get ready to jump around then and hop around
One of your best videos yet! Love the 1.5x voice speed that you manually set by talking fast ;) It helps jam all this good info into such a short video!
I think a more approprate term to use at 3:15 is you should start Bailing, not repairing, I've seen new players start repairing as their ship is moaning out in pain and they sink because of it
I’m not against pvp but there’s a point when it just turns into griefing and then there’s just times when you don’t want to pvp so I do server hoping till I find a server with no reapers but I do need to get better it’s just hard when you see someone fly across your ship at mach 10 speed
Personally as a controller player I bound my food to R3. Its very convenient. I also have my bucket bound to left on the D-pad and throwables bound to Right on the D-pad
Dropping a comment to say thanks for doing what should be far more common on RU-vid, useful info that doesn't stay on a single point for 5x longer than needed.
I wouldn't change food to a and jump to rb and food to a primarily because mastering gun combat is incredibly hard so you will be jumping around a lot more for the highest chance of survivability, trust me on that one.
Another thing, there is something in this game called hit registration (hit-reg for short) Theres a chance that a bullet that hits someone doesnt count and does nothing to them. They are NOT cheating, just a bug that has yet to be fixed and it might be that way for a long time. Also, don’t be that guy that assumes everyone that is better than you is cheating, there are many people that are stupidly good with their shots.
I don’t know where people live but im on the NA east coast and i barely wait 5 min most of the time between arena matches( in sloop mode). Arena’s reputation is worst than it deserves, the real problem is open crew which is the same problem in adventure mode. If you have someone to team up with its good
there is a thing you can do when boarding, when the ships gets a little water go to the bottom deck and do a hiding emote ( preferably a fast one ) so with a quick look the enemy wont know you are there and you can geta easy one blunder
This video is absurdly good! Oh lord. THIS is how you do guides. Just info, easy-to-digest explanation, visual/audio examples, and repeat. Perfect! The only tips I can think of from another videos is breaking mast by shooting chainshot straight up on the boarded ship and grappling with harpoon and wheel straight to make a circle around enemy ship.
ok this is the most embarassing thing i ever post on the internet i think but i just let it be: ive played for just some hours sea of thieves with a french guy who had 8k hours and i just reached 50. we played arena and he taught me so many things in just so little time, aswell as you blurbs, and after some time he said he wanted to sleep. He said enjoy your rest time on the sea and stay safe, catch a good sleep. After that i was crying because i knew ill never see this person in my life again and i havent seen anybody being so wholesome like him in many years dude i shouldve not forgotten to add him
That’s nice I wasn’t so lucky. My first time playing sea of thieves I was solo on a sloop and had “open crew” turned on. A random player joined my crew while I was midway through a voyage and already had a lot of loot on my ship. He then grabbed a storage crate and put all of my materials into it from my barrels, threw the storage crate overboard, then threw the rest of my loot overboard and then hit a rock and set the ship on fire, then left. By the time i noticed what had happened the loot was super far back and my ship was filling with water. I had no wood since he threw it all overboard. I sunk. Lost a bunch of hours for a toxic player to have a laugh.
