Sea of Thieves: How to PIRATE 

You know you're doomed when you hear that "hello"

You are the best sea of thieves RU-vidr, and you've taught me sooo much, I hope I run into you on sea one day and avoid you at all costs.

8:13 I refute your argument! If the wind direction is random throughout a voyage you are more likely to have the wind to the sides because there is two of them and only one front. the brig is fastest with the wind to the side and faster than a sloop with the wind coming from the rear. Since the brig is faster than the sloop when the wind is coming from 3 sides (left side right side and rear) opposed to the sloops 1 side (front), you should go for the brig if speed is your main concern. (only if you have a two-man crew)

I'm beyond happy you've returned to us

11:54 this shit had me dyin

Brig crew: No you just cant go straight into the wind to run away >:c Me: Haha sloop go brrr

0:39) So, this man basically just pulled a Flameheart Jr

I had watched this a day before you were on their stream. Great content! Thanks for pressuring them on the questions!

Your SoT videos really bring back good memories.. Too bad I'm stuck in military Service and can't really play myself, so these really hype up my day! Keep it up~

Videos like this make me want to give Sea of Thieves a try.

Love how you cut the cannon shots in your videos.

I love the music when you chased the 'red sea' pirates, it was perfect during color transitions.

I love how you just say "Hello" :P It got me hangin here, so I had to subscribe

I've gotta say, you've grown on me a lot. Great sense of humor, great advice and tips, and good entertainment.

8:02 literally happened to me same islands

i have to say man i have been loving your videos for a while i tried the style of voice over aswell like you and Welyn use. gotta say. you nail it man! cant w8 to see you on the high seas!!

I love this guy, his accent makes anything he says completely chill. *Megaladon attacks* "Hello Mr. Megaladon!" I swear he can make any sentence completely chill no matter what he is saying.

I ALREADY WATCHED ALL YOUR VIDEOS! They are too good! That's why I want more!

When you say hello it sounds like gru from despicable me saying it

Gotta love the barrel roulette :D

This is some high quality content right here. This man needs more subscribers.

the best. literally in love with this channel.

You are the only sea of thieves content creator I want to see in my recommend videos.

you know in your video S.O.T vs developers you learn me some thing and talking about some serious subject in the game. very very interesting video. your one of the best.

I was expecting a standard tips and tricks video but this gave me a good couple of laughs.

i really like this guy he is always so bright and filled with joy, keep the positivity

I know this is a bit of an older video, so maybe this reply is late. But the two reasons I like two-manning the Brig are: 1) Being able to flex how many people you have is super useful (As to your point 3), because I can solo-sail a Brig if need by, either because my buddy has to step away for some reason, or is off the ship handling something. Or if I want to wrap up some stuff solo at the end of a session, but not restock a sloop. I personally find a great value in those options. 2) I have twice as many directions I can get max speed at, compared to other ships. If I have a northward wind, I can go East OR West to outrun someone. A Sloop can only go South, and a Galleon North. This opens up HUGE strategic options for swinging by Forts and setting up a keg or cannon play, performing boarding attempts, and generally maximizing my options for how to maintain a safe distance if I don't feel like I'm in a position for a full fight. That being said, each of the ships definitely has advantages. I think more firepower IS a valid reason, more or less, as long as you know how to play the game to ensure you can utilize that extra firepower as much as possible. But it probably isn't a very good reason on its own.

I missed you pal!

Just when I think i've seen all the good gaming content on YT they through me a bone like you. guess i have another 100+ hours to watch now :)

8:19 "But since *(On paper)* the Sloop is the fastest against the wind, The Sloop will get- *ISLAND VS WOOD NOISES*

The reason me and my friend always pick the brigantine is because we think it looks cooler, yeah sure it might not be good at anything really when you're only 2 people but atlest we're having fun

The combat evolved part made me subscribe 🤣🤣

this is actually really good content, a sub well deserved

I actually learned how to fight in sot from your vids (not to mention their funny) I appreciate it dude

3:30 it’s because me and my friends don’t actually know how the sloop sails work. We just know that with crosswind brig go zoom, it’s also easier to estimate when to raise sails when parking, and there is an extra cannon

Tbh if you think about it the wind mechanics make sense, if a galleon is going against the wind they have 3 sails getting pushed back by the wind, but when it’s with the wind it has 3 going with it.

This guy can post whatever he wants and I can guarantee it would be entertaining.

Math, Angles, Curve theory. Still the best. I keep coming back Pixel

I thought Summ1tg was fun to watch....but your commentary just cracks me up. Think you're my new favorite 🤣

You probably don’t remember but I was on a galleon representing the servants of the flame and you were on a sloop and you were pounding us and we knew we were going to lose but we determined to try to learn something and we learned about not immediately going for the anchor when we board thank you

I tried sea of thiefs and everyone ran away from us and all we did was farm. Yet your videos never cease to entertain me

Doing the rag and bone crates made sense for the added speed since you could load crates and select the seapost you want to deliver to based on the wind direction.

I only watch this channel for this kind of content please keep making more

Love these these videos and all your content!! So surprised youre not over this game with how much money you have xD

that's content. gj man your efforts are appreciated

I like the sloop, it’s small and nimble, can hide between small islands and rocks and easy to manage if your playing it solo 👍🏼

This is the first video I've seen of yours. You're hella hilarious. I'd be honored to be sunk by you on the seas one day Haha

Me and a friend to man the brig for quick firepower. We can approach any ship, sloop or galleon, and take them out before they notice. A sloop wouldn’t normally have the firepower to take an unaware galleon with just the cannons. And the same thing with the sails applies to all ships.

love your vids man they are bloody hilarious dude. PS anyone else think his character @5:21 looks like Danny" Trejo? Keep it real man!

Bruh your channel is fuckin awesome mate this is my absolute favourite sea of thevs content. I hope you continue to grow man cause this channel deserves more attention🖐

Turning the sail into the wind to speed up is from RL sailing, and is called "Tacking" - however, the sails in SOT are SQUARE and wouldn't allow tacking. You need the triangular Lateen sail or a Moonraker sail to tack against the wind.

I used to be an eye of reach flintlock guy but after seeing your videos the blunderbuss might be a choice for me 👀

The wind thing isn't a bug, it's an intended feature to balance it so that each ship has an advantage over the others and a disadvantage depending on how competent the crew is or how much trail and error they've done

Math, Angles, Curved theory! Absolutely love it!

You can shave off a little time on each bucket scoop and shovel dig with an animation cancel. It really really makes a difference especially if more than 1 person are utilizing it.

I think on the pause screen where it says Scuttle, it should say "ship management" and in the screen you would see "scuttle" and "change ship type" which would allow you to change your ship from a small ship to a larger ship, and from a large ship to a smaller ship only if your crew amount permits. Getting a new ship should scuttle your current and then spawn the new larger ship of your choice on another island.

This video was great stuff!

4 Years later, they kinda brought the "Windwaker Update" to the newer seasons. Haha.

FINALLY a new video of you playing SoT!!! >D

I don't like you or the way your talk but your knowledge about the game, experience and gameplay is on par with my own and for that reason you have my respect.

this guys sounds a good voice, and reacts to situations similar to videogamedunkey, and i love it.

I love the music, and funny video!

great and hilarious content keep up the good work

Why didn't I find this guy earlier , bro great video's

If you double tap B or X on pc you can cancel the bucketing animation to make it faster. Same thing with shovel but everybody knows that.

I love it when he hits them with the classic "hello"

I love ur laugh 😂 it sounds like the pirate lord’s laugh

Dude... How are you not at 1 million subs? You are hilarious!

Due to some unfortunate luck I can't play SoT, so I'll just watch your stuff.

love the its always sunny in Philadelphia reference

I love how you edit the cannon shots

The more of this you got, the more I'll watch.

My buddy and i use the brig for the extra wind speed and the second cannon, it has made the difference for me in all my pvp encounters, weve sunk gallions and sloops easily with propper sail usage, i dont have the same bad luck with wind

This is AMAZING.

I run two players on brig because it’s quicker then the sloop. But I also have a good partner who I’ve been running w since release. He does takes care of the ship and I do the killin. Works for us.

Pixel is just another sea of thieves boss. When you here the "hello" prepare to blow

I want to see a meme of Commodore Norrington and his right hand man saying that has to be the best pirate I've ever seen pans over to Pixel saying Hello

I'd really love to be able to change ship in game instead of having to go out to menus, because it hurts a little to leave all your stocked up resources. Also because sometimes you don't know if you'll just be soloing or 2 man sloop or if all the bois are coming online later Side question tho: why do you keep the loot on the bow(or the bowsprit as the front stick is called according to Wikipedia) of the ship? One last thing about why 2 man brig: me and my mate do it because we're not sure if a 3rd mate is gonna join us but if they do it's nice to have the option available instead of needing to change ship. I think some people could also do it for preference, like they like the look of the brig more than the sloop

I was doing a tall tale earlier, and a galleon was coming after me. After a short pursuit I noticed that it was a 1-man galleon. Give me a good reason why 1 person needs to operate a large, bulky ship that is most efficient when it's able to host a crew of 4 people.

Hahah he played it’s always sunny theme... Nioce

Into the wind with all sails forward, its galleon > brig > sloop. It's just easier to do on a sloop.

This is an old video, but I’ll post my perspective into the Aether. I two man for two reasons, it absolutely does scare away most sloops. Just because YOU attack everything with a sail, doesn’t mean most people do. Most people avoid brigs. That’s just how it works. Second, on average, I save 15-20 mins per mission on a brig. That’s just my luck. I’ve timed this mind you. I have horrendous luck with sloops and wind. Better with brigs and wind. Wind gods, indeed. I’ve solo’d a brig for story missions. The moment I act aggressively against an advancing sloop and start firing before talking, they run. That’s been my experience over 90% of the time. The other times, I’ll either pick the direction with side wind, full sails, or I’ll strategically place islands between me and fight. I’ve won against other two/three man brigs solo that way. It’s not easy, but I’m also a try hard.

Finaly some Sea of Thieves :P

At 11:09 when the guy jumped into the water I just died with laughter

Wow i have been playing the game wrong this whole time??? 😂 Jk but seriously there are really quite a few sot youtubers that are good but i swear nobody is having as much fun as this man i can feel it 😂... He's like.. Saitama of. The oceans ... So calm and bored of his own power 😂😂😂😂😂 great content this surely got me back into the game for good!

I like brigs better because it’s better to sail on for a few reasons. 1) If you get wind against sloops you’re around 3x faster than them 2) Kegs on the crow’s nest are further from the ship’s hull so damage is less. 3) The sloop bounces around a lot, so I prefer brigs. 4) More cannonballs to start with. 5) (obviously) More cannons = fire power

He’s backkkk

Brig is only slightly slower than a sloop against wind and lot faster with wind while also having decent handling. Especially if you are chasing people (half the play time I am chasing people) brig is the best. That said I rarely need to 2 man brig because I usually have enough players to fill the crew. I also think lot of 2 man brigs are open crews.

I solo the brig over the sloop. I can leave the wheel easier without the ship floating around all over the place, more stable. Can run away from other ships with a lot more options of escape. Not targeting as often because people expect larger crews. Typically I am the first of my friends on and I dont know who is going to be getting on each night, so it just leaves more spots available and decreases the likelihood of having to change boats..... Just a couple of keys to doing it okay. Don't be afraid of harpoon turns and never ever use the anchor. If looking to PvP a lot, this is not the boat for you. lol

Someone played barrel roulette on my sloop earlier. They climbed on board (part of a full brigantine crew, for once) and I set sail so that it wasn't enough to overwhelm me with reinforcements, since they were across the stronghold with a good cannon angle. He stared at me for a good 10 seconds before I got bored and threw a firebomb at him. I won the fight, but they came back and won that fight, then we became friends over a battle well fought.

“You guys know you can only bail as fast the animation allows you too right?” Me: animation cancels

Wanted to play stronghold barrel roulette with a brig so I set my one man sloop toward it, basically flipped on a dime as I was coming and headed away. Sadly if they had won I was willing to give them two stocked supply crates & a fresh rowboat.

I'm new to your channel and I had no idea you could sell mermaid gems to hunters call, I never even thought to try. crazy

People’s reactions are the best

congrats on 100k

Reason me and my buddy 2 man a brig: We sometimes one of our friends wants to drop in. Keeps us from having to discard quests to start a new crew. That being said, is there a way to change ships without leaving the game?

I used a brig with my friend because it’s faster than the sloop when you have wind. Plus it has two cannons on each side so we would do a double cannon drive by. We don’t do it anymore since they added the possibility of a skeleton galleon spawning on a brig.

What if you have to scuttle to change ship type? You can remain in the same server and not loose a quest but you have to ff any loot or supplies

How do you make it so that you can just click "F" to take or store cannon balls and wood and such on PC? I've seen it in some of your other videos and decided to go to your most recent ones so I'd be more likely to gain help. This question goes for anyone
