CoOpGamerCouple 4 Posted January 2, 2019 Just a quick tip for those who may not have figured it out... scout the next zone over with a dinghy to avoid ghost ships killing you at boarders. You need a schooner or better but it is safer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vaenix 131 Posted January 2, 2019 You can also just swim across naked, there is a chance of a shark attack or other but this would allows those without the ability to have a dinghy to scout the zone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bisbois 29 Posted January 2, 2019 Yeah, We have been using 2 ships lately when we can and having one cross the border at a sharp angle first. Sucks to be getting shot before you even load in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoOpGamerCouple 4 Posted January 2, 2019 If you swim of course just empty your inventory so you don't lose gear! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vhalkyrie 38 Posted January 2, 2019 We have been doing this in our two man crew. One of us jumps over and scouts it out. We don't mind dodging the SOD, except for zoning over into the "gate campers". We spent several hours successfully dodging them in a schooner, and only lost the ship when we zoned over and ran into 3.

Domino 48 Posted January 2, 2019 I always raise my sails quite a bit to lower the speed as I'm crossing server borders, so that when things finally load up, I haven't travelled too far in. Otherwise, I zoom in and by the time I load everything in, I'm surrounded (and sometimes sinking!)
