Hey Phuzzy, I have a question. I just started playing SoT on my laptop. How do I “type chat” in the game? I usually keep my mic turned off when the kids are asleep, but I hate having to communicate through the preset pirate radial dialogue
@@tangofett4065 It should be in the in-game settings under controller options? I play on console so I'm not too sure how the sot pc settings differ. Have a play-around with the settings and see what you can find. P.S. If your keyboard can still be used as an input for the game at the same time as the controller then all you'll have to do is reach over and press T. Hope this helps
As a 46 yr old PvElord, console player, with over 62+ days on the seas whom tends to avoid PvP like a plague. (SoT is my first PvPvE game) I truly appreciate your vids. Especially an honest one like this showcasing the highs, lows, mistakes, and triumphs of a PvP encounter. Gives a pvp novice, like me and my daughter (whom I sail with) encouragement to engage rather than flee. In order to learn and improve. Thanks Phuzzy!!
@@autismcow2883 Agree to Disagree. I dont care for 90% of SoT content creators. Phuzzybond is one of the few I've grown to like during my time on the seas so to each their own.
@@SaltyGamerNGC76 I agree with you. I dont care for most. I am the same, love the pve and just searching gold hoarders for treasures but I do like; Phuzzy, hitbotc and Blurbs is ok. Stay farrr away from boxyfresh if you like Phuzzys style lol. There arrr a few others but those come to mind. And of course rocket but unfortunately he gets lumped in with Phuzzy lol.
@@Kennyko89 Thanks for the advice and nice to meet a fellow pirate that enjoys PvE☠️. I've seen a bit of Boxy and ya, not my cup of grog. I go back and forth with HitboTC.🤣 Behaving Beardly is a personal fave due to him keeping his stuff family friendly. Cheers🍻
I played Sea thieves when it was brand new, and quit the game before really giving it a chance. Your videos helped inspire me to come back with a whole new attitude towards the game, and I love it. Now. I'm well on my way to Pirate legend. It sucks being a solo slooper, but your guides have given me the chance to succeed.
I’m a pirate legend, I have put a good time in the sea and I’m decent at the PvP. I have sunk others and have been sunk before but oh well we win some and lose some. If you want you can hmu to help you grind to pirate legend. I play with my older brother every night in a sloop
Ive only played a week. Thanks to your guides and videos i dont eat worms anymore and can actualy hold my own in a 1 on 1. Stay legendary and thank you again
People always say that the only way to get better at pvp is to lose, yeah getting spawncamped while my ship dies from the one hole I can’t repair was SUPER helpful
just kill them this is a joke spawn camping is hard to dealwith but spam just and a direction button as your repawning so you won't be standing still for that half second when you come back from the ferry this might help dealing with spawn camping
I suck at PvP in this game, and I love how nice they are. GG’s all around, and yet all I fight are salty bums spamming “look how bad you are!” every time I lose. (Which is basically every engagement)
I used to be like you, and still mostly am but trust me when I say you will 100% get better and you will learn plenty of tricks to the point where its muscle memory. Also for the toxic crews, yeah they exist but ignore them, you'll meet plenty of good people 😃
Double gunner here After a quick analysis, I concluded that the guy in the purple suit was using the double gun pretty badly. Unfortunately, because of your mistakes, he was able to sink you at first, but he messed up a lot. He's too focused on where the enemy (in this case you) is at one specific moment - so he doesn't take into account that the enemy might move, so it's easy to dodge. On top of that, for a double gunner he waits too long to fire a shot. As you said, he doesn't change weapons after a blunder miss, which is not a mistake, but he stays close to you during this time, which makes it a mistake.
@@PhuzzyBond I would use the term. "quick scope" if you mean fast firing with EOR because no-scope EOR isn't really useful, but I guess that is what you meant. Otherwise I agree.
also the pl outfit double gunner constantly went under deck on the sloop (not mid level bottom level) which is a massive mistake because bottom deck on a sloop is sword haven and also against a sword player like phuzzy he should have kept his distance even tho blunder eor loadout since hitting with 3 pellets from the blunder and eor quickscoping can work from across half of a sloop bowsprite to mast (once i was fighting a gally and killed someone with just 2 shots from the base of the stair to the other side of the brig)
@@zhuyuchen8324 yes you should definitely only go there if you see they are gathering food from the barrel or if they are double gunners and need to reload both their weapons or stg like that... Not like any of these happen that often xdd
It has been at least a year since I really learned anything new about this game in a video since I’ve been playing since day 1. I never would’ve thought to do that with the rowboat, well played.
Phuzzy you have done it again. I now see the advice you gave in full effect. Great video. Also, I always make the mistake of not checking their supplies, I am learning though. Finally, I was wondering how people do that side jump. Now I know, I will be putting that into practice. Thanks pal
just sank my first ship using the fort tactic. a guy started attacking out of nowhere while i was at an outpost (thankfully already sold all my loot). i let my boat sink, and then when i respawned i went in search of the boat that sank me. i found him, and then baited him to start chasing me. i ditched my ship and got on the canons at the fort. the dude sailed right into my sights. hit a couple of canonballs, then the chainshot to get the mast down, and after that some firebombs. he climbed the tower and hit me with a blunderbuss...we both died cuz there was a gunpowder keg right next to us! my boat didn't sink though! i've only been playing for a week and i've been binge watching your vids. this scurvy cur thanks you for the tips! :D
Awesome vid phuzzy been watching for a while missed a few vids so I'm catching up love the content. You're part of the reason iv returned to sea of thieves love watching your informative vids aswell as just watching how you interact and treat people on the game keep up the good work.😁👍
Last one is a really good one because it allows you to even analyze the other steps and look at the mistakes. I should definitely try to remember recording before the next fight.
*sees WOWS sponsorship* "Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written" lol but seriously Sea of Thieves was introduced to me as I found myself having less and less fun on WOWS and I constantly find ourselves laughing until our ribs hurt in SoT. I have only been playing this game for a few weeks now and I still have a ways to go but your tips have already been a huge help in holding our own.
A MASSIVE tip for pvp and something sweats will say otherwise to you is to play into YOUR strengths not anybody elses. If you are a solo slooper and a 4 man galleon is chasing you. You are outmanned and outgunned(cannon) you owe nobody a fight especially when they have a massive advantage over you. Your strength is the nimbleness of a sloop. Sail against the wind and around very rough terrain. The enemy isn’t going to fairly fight you 1 on 1 if you’re solo to be fair so don’t play “fair” with them. You don’t always have to run sometimes fighting is better but if you don’t see yourself winning its better to try to lose them or discourage them from chasing by going to areas they can’t maneuver easily (Like shipwreck bay)
if you are confident on cannon go past a skull fort and use the skull fort cannons to chain shot their mast and also sail past n13 unnamed island as it has very shallow water near it and could cause the galleon to beach and lose them precious seconds on you
The rowboat supply thing is actually really smart. However I can’t think of a situation where I would despawn their supplies and not just take it for my own ship.
Thank you for making a pvp video showing tips and highlights using cutlass and not toxic double gun meta. Most PVP tip videos just tell you to doublegun and how, and that's the end of it. This is a swashbuckling pirate game not a twitchy fps, sword should be mandatory. This game is really good at giving you an even playing field ie no real better or worse option when it comes to what's available but dropped the ball hard when it comes to raw PVP non ship combat, as if you're not double gunning you're just flat out at meta disadvantage, beyond the fact that alot of doublegunners literally use Marcos/quick swapping exploits to do their strat and try to act like it's playing the game as Rare intended and designed. This game shouldn't have a meta if everything is on an even field beyond skill level as Rare makes it out.
Step 1: Do as phuzzy says, not as he does. Step 2: Stop using sword lunge, as hitreg causes you to get stunlocked far too often, which = insta death against a blunder. Step 3: Split your resources between barrels and storage crates. Step 4: Analyze your battles and learn from your mistakes. Step 5: Practice.
I figured out step 3 from experience. Just makes sense. On the one hand, it's easy to sink and lose everything, On the other hand, it's also easy for people to throw your crates overboard.
literally half the shots the purple guy took there would have one blundered me. Not sure if it is my ping or what but It doesn't mater where the guy seems to be looking if he shoots a blunder I go down.
I've had some pretty nasty PVP encounters in this game. I want to believe that there are some good sports out there but out of the I think little over 20 encounters I've had with other people when I decided to fight and not run they've been toxic try Hardy assholes who just insult me for no reason. More than not the excuse I get for their attitude is it's a pirate game expect to die. I expect to die. I expect to have my ship sunk and my loot stolen and my supplies taken. I don't expect people to call me the n word in a derogatory angry way. Or call me a cuck and a c***. My belief is toxic behavior is about how you present yourself during an interaction on a game. Sinking someone isn't toxic. Spawn camping you is a dick move but it's not toxic. Spouting off hateful rude vulgar derogatory racist s*** at someone just because things are either not going your way or are going your way and you're just a bad sport is toxic behavior.
this is why i always tell people never keep a storage crate on your ship, im the dude who disposes of your supplies if i see you have a storage crate... especially your wood, the risk of having all your wood or cannon balls thrown over is not worth quick looting or a slightly more convenient supply of materials
I'm absolutely terrible. I'm forcing more PvP more often for practice but the skill gap is so wide. I dont want to keep relying on keg bombs for sneak attacks.
I'd love to capture gameplay for review, but xbox has horrible gameplay capture options. I've tried 3rd party capture programs and systems and they either eat resources or cause latency issues, both affecting gameplay.
Nothing to do with that particular vid but with Fuzzy. Where can I find today Albion Online steam ? Can't find anything about it on twitch and the pool here on RU-vid vanished. It's today, isn't it ?
Yes supposed to be scheduled post but accidentally posted it early 😊 my stream is after 15 minutes from this post , if you follow my twitch I'll be live shortly
Get a broadside one them, sure they are nimble but one anchorball or boarder anchoring them while they're in your broadside you can lay into them seriously, if you have 3 people (and the other one boarding or steering) on the cannons you can overwhelm and sink a sloop in seconds
Hey I know this comment is late as hell lol. But if you still play you have to hold block as you sword lunge and that lets you move around as it charges up.
this video is you telling people how to get good at pvp while failing terribly at it and being awful at it as well. tough. and the enemy was just getting reg on you. thats the only reason they died.
1. I never Claimed that 2. You don't have to be one to provide guidance 3. Everyone that claims they are, aren't making any videos So you are stuck with me :)
Guide for PVP "lord's" Step 1 tape an x on the screen Step 2 double gun Step 3 cry that all prayers aren't parking in your range Now you're a lord in a Disneyland game. Go flex to your 5 friends how amazing you are and complain about phuzzy's strategy guilds.
And the people you think are the pinnacle generally just steamroll noobs, make a montage, and think they're special. I can walk into an elementary playground and beat up everyone there but that hardly makes me a badass.
@@PhuzzyBond I've give you the point yku have really good strategies and have good game sense but good like able to defeat pretty mediocre players like these guys they were not good but you still sunk mainly to your mistakes
@@slymarines57 I clearly said in the video "I made a mistake" . Which is just what you said 😊 I don't hide my mistakes, or remove them from videos, that's how players learn the right way.
