FrozenNorseman 0 Posted January 17, 2019 Hello fellow PVP-pathfinders If you have the time I would love if you could answer this strawpoll about what you primarily lose your ships to. It takes two minutes tops, but would help sate my curiosity and maybe help illustrate the overall fate of ships in Atlas: Link to poll: https://strawpoll.com/9w6fshd6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightySheep 14 Posted January 17, 2019 Havent lost a ship in PvP since the start. Have lost 1 schooner to deploying in a shallow dock and 1 schooner to someone close a large gate while it was passing through. "Bugs" should really have been an option on this.

FrozenNorseman 0 Posted January 17, 2019 Shallow water is an environment, which should be listed. I'd say the gate closing is "Other". Especially since you specified it. I am not looking to know what you lost every ship on - just what has caused the *majority* of your losses. If you hit a sandbar and sink all your ships that way, then that is the majority of your ship losses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaiTash 156 Posted January 17, 2019 Never lost a ship in actual PvP. However i won't even consider building anything larger than a sloop anymore until we have that stupid ugly multi-layered garage ready. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rizzit 16 Posted January 17, 2019 We only lost one kamikaze sloop in proper ship battle, for the rest every single ship was destroyed while offline even in fp by abusing the drag weight body bug. I dont build anything larger then a scooner until they fixed the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pant 98 Posted January 17, 2019 Never even seen a shipbattle, the fecking thing sinks every other night. We built a pen for it in the ass end of yeti land, next day it was dead and one of the large stone gates was blown out. It's rng simulator everytime you log off. If I could play this game without having to quit my job that would be great thx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But we are a pretty much around the clock company. Our most recent ship loss was to the naked raft raid with fire arrows. But that wasnt a huge loss, it was 1 of nearly a dozen Brigs.

Talono 434 Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) I lose most ships to naked flamearrow trolls. Second to bored megatribe members firing broadsides on ralts with just a bed and a box. Number 3 is loss to chinese overweight exploiter troll teams. Till now i did not lose any ship to tornados, decay, defeat in PVP, ships of the damned, bad sailing or something.. knock on wood. This would be a nice game with offline protection for ships, at the moment it is nothing more than trolls heaven. Edited January 17, 2019 by Talono Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GunnyTheGrey 27 Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) Transferring servers, some issue occurs where the boat is deleted and I'm spawned at a freeport with my gear on me after an extended looping disconnect. Usually only when I'm not remotely near a server boundary and sitting still, that's when the famed transfer death occurs. 3 times now. out of 4 lost ships. The 4th was me being stupid and anchoring in water too shallow to raise the anchor in, that one died of collision damage. Was my own fault. As a previous poster said, "bugs" should be an option. That's when I switched to PvE. Hardly any PvP to be found when the servers do all the killing, and i had me stressing out over possibilties that never happened anyways.

Znick 41 Posted January 18, 2019 You need to separate " Griefing or raids while you are offline ". They are 2 different things. Z Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Talono 434 Posted January 19, 2019 Ok, i no longer lose my ship to offline flamearrow griefers but since the overweight patch to offline ship stealing griefers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sloops and above are automatically stolen/sunk when you log in again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
