Drakarious 0 Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) i know we have this 12 hour claim thing but thats so anti climactic, its a pirate game we need to be able to board and steel/plunder ships, make it harder to steal a ship but faster, i dont really mind how this goes but here is an idea i was spitbaling here.. Rival Crews will either need to grapple onto the rival ship or use fire arrows to burn the sails of given ship, or smash down the sails, keep in mind they will need to be repaired. You need min % of base crew number to steal a ship, Sloops need 1 Schooners need 3 Brigs need 5 Galleons need 8-10 When rival player mans the help the ship will start to decay meaning the rival ship will have to repair the ship to steal it, destroy all beds so players cannot spawn there to contest it, or have a Mandatory item on the ship be it a flag, steering wheel, captains log book that must be picked up/destroyed to start the claim, designers will need to protect it. after say 15mins -30mins of fighting the crew, repairing the ship the captain of the stolen ship needs to sail the ship back to there base within a given time to successfully claim the ship. i feel this would add an awesome dynamic feel to stealing ships get the heart pumping with a great reward. also i know many smaller tribes will not like this thinking big alpha tribes will just keep stealing, but they wouldnt want a ton of small ships only the best ships, and that tribe will more than likely sink it anyway if they couldn't steal it so i dont feel this would make much difference, this would also combat the amount of "sunken ships" that lag the servers. tribes could then bring them back to make loot it and salvage it for materials or keep it if they chooses.

Hodo 147 Posted January 17, 2019 Honestly it is just easier to sink the ship and then go diving and salvage the stuff than try and capture it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That takes the fun out of it though! Boarding someones ship and killing them then taking the ship with the loot would be great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not disagreeing with you. I would rather be more "pirate" like and be able to capture the ships. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
