Cliff: "Athenas are hilarious because of how paranoid they are" Also Cliff: "THERES AN EMPTY SHIP AT THE OUTPOST SINK IT AND HUNT DOWN THE AFK PLAYER"

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

And here I almost thought that plot point was too subtle!

[@zerwire7856]

It is funny too because it happened to me once where I was afk as a barrel in the tavern only to return to hear cannons fired at my boat and people screaming "Get the chest to the tavern!" I did feel bad that they weren't able to get the chest in since they only set one person to carry/guard the chest in.

[@brezzy9790]

Great vid keep up the good work but is it just me or at 1:58 and 8:31 the people there were the same

[@caspian6937]

Lmaoo (there are exactly 420 likes and I cant bring myself to mess it up)

[@SupaSillyThyme]

@@brezzy9790 its because he is using a setting which randomizes nametags

[@chr1st0pher63]

I love how they were making fun of Atheana emissaries being paranoid all the time, and then five minutes later shot down a new ship, in fear of being sunk again

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Yeah it's almost like there is a connection between these 2 plot points

[@ElZedLoL]

Tell that to the poor soul :D

[@meesarendse6422]

Yo cliff, did you know that when another crew starts the legend of the veil voyage, you can hide in the tornado if they're not close yet. It makes you as good as invisible to them while you can see everything, great way to surprise attack other pirates and even steal their athena loot.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Yeh I've seen it happen a lot on Twitch

[@archiehammond5902]

I went in and got flung outside the map boundaries. Probably a glitch but it was funny

[@lucky_mcgee799]

Prettys ure it's bugged where you fly across the map on your ship (which is the funniest shit I've ever seen)

[@shamrokz95]

imagine. you just get black screened back to the boat. that would be real funny tho

[@jacobe4538]

@@CliffTheStoryGuy its the way for pirates to reach just under the speed of light

How do you like the new Athena Voyage?

[@leonzetterstrom8976]

Yeah

[@JMB_Knight]

Can’t say because I’m not a Pirate Legend

[@dannerbonanner217]

Fun

[@hollow_monolug8257]

It's ok but me and my crew didn't overly enjoy it

[@faustrex7167]

My crew and I found it kind of disappointing, little easy for endgame I guess

[@pleythru]

Cliff the way you unceasingly narrate your videos makes me feel insane but the editor in me is constantly impressed with your pacing and the way you condense a session into an engaging narrative. Props for developing this style and congrats on the growth so far!

[@RivetHead999]

When are you two going to get together and make a video?

[@zemes7662]

Love to see friendly pirates, when i watched there betrayal i thought of how unbelievable they were, but when it was on purpose just to spice the video up, bro you really got me there thinking that they were terrible people.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Gotta keep you at the edge of your seat 😎👉👉

[@Noah-op8wm]

The goblin laugh he gave after selling it had me fucking dying!

[@bez4985]

Even if it wasn’t staged they wouldn’t have been “terrible people”, it’s a damn pirate game. Betrayal is a part of that

[@shoelace5977]

the chuckle at around 10:55 is even more charming when you find out it was an act

[@TheRealAnde]

"All mine now"

[@pooppet1768]

I love the laugh of treason of the other crew at the end. Great episode like always

[@lucaswatson8811]

Love seeing you grow Cliff! You've definitely got me back into sea of thieves and I could not be more grateful! You're an amazing content creator and story teller and you deserve all the support mate.

[@StanTheMan09]

Your the main reason I got back into SOT. Your 100 days to PL was amazing and gave me encouragement to try and do the same

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Hope you're enjoying your time on the seas!

[@noomrm73]

The problem I love about this channel is that these videos are so good that I can’t watch anyone else. Love you’re channel keep going.

[@Carlscontent]

Once again I know this is going to be an amazing video. Your content is amazing and I don't usually like sea of thieves content. You deserve more subscribers.

[@Super88thefemboi]

all of his videos are awesome

[@coeliacfrog7504]

I'm always thrilled when cliff posts, especially on days when I really need that kinda thing, so thanks so much for all your hard work!!

[@saggingshrimpify]

I love that there's a quest that takes barely any time even when you do it solo it makes it much less of a chore to grind athenas

[@crochetdogtrainer]

Cliff, I've been binging your videos lately and it helped me get through the final grind to pirate legend! You've rekindled my love for this game and I'm so glad to see a SoT streamer that doesn't claim to be a total pvp God but can still manage to hold his own!

[@pcdeltalink036]

As a solo slooper that "I haven't checked the horizon in 13 seconds" is very true. The barest hint of a mast and, depending on what I've got, I'm going the opposite direction.

[@Ms.Partii]

I love how he’s honest when he takes the endings

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Honesty is important innit

[@MiracleMirror117]

The ending was a better twist than a M. Shyamalan movie.

[@JMlebeau]

35 and only discovered sea of thieves last year when old school friends introduced me to a couple of nights on the seas. My friend used to have an online handle of "Captain Bastard" so we renewed the old gang's love for dirty online tactics and had lots of fun being kids again. Your videos have made me redownload and I hope, though I have less time and chances to play with people now, to sail the seas and meet some fun loving people on this fun game again!

[@no_i_dont_want_no_slugs]

That bit about being a paranoid Athena and doing multiple horizon checks had me laughing because that's definitely me.

[@vulpes4638]

As I watch more of this channel and learn more about sea of thieves, I'm basically getting two vibes. Help out a new player because you'll get a fort full of loot (obviously an exaggeration, iykyk) and also, don't trust anybody because if you stack fort of the damned with an alliance you'll get betrayed. At the end of the day, I've learned absolutely nothing other than I love this game the more I look into it lmao

[@GnomishBoot]

I'm not sure what combination of factors made the algorithm decide to add your videos to my recommended but I am very glad it did. I'm a sucker for crew type games like Guns of Icarus and Barotrauma but when I looked at Sea of Thieves when it first came out but it seemed a bit too light on content for me to jump in and I had since forgotten about it. Your videos are great and I've found myself watching them all and it seems like its time to give Sea of Thieves a second look. Love your stuff! Its got a very relaxed and friendly vibe and the voice over narration to keep a nice through line during the edits makes for some great videos. I've been looking around a fair bit as I've been considering picking of Sea of Thieves and your videos have absolutely been second to none!

[@senatorarmstrong882]

Great video format, i never met something like this. It is like sitting in tavern and listening to the old pirate’s stories

[@newusername6228]

This voyage is great, it’s like an on-demand world event that is a magnet for PvP. Me and my friend have stolen almost 10 Athena’s so far. Awesome to see my fav SoT KZbinr playing it too

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

10 Athena steals already? Dang you've been busy!

[@ghostface208]

Another brilliant adventure Cliff! Glad Rare decided to do something about the tedious selection of pirate legend activities! Keep up the great work!

[@shadowgaming645]

The athena grind is a tough one, which is my reason for being paranoid. Always look forward to your videos man, keep it up.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

It's what Athena's Fortune does to us 😔

[@shadowgaming645]

Yeah. Did meet one reaper who just wanted to fight. Once I sold my loot we made it a battle of the flags.

[@MrCyrus55]

Amazing content as always, I simply enjoy these videos from the first second and they end way to fast.. looking forward to the next one!

[@FalconGaming2018]

bro, I almost lost faith on humanity until you specified that you paid those actors in the end XD

[@JPetri992]

Honestly these videos have become my recent obsession. They're so reminiscent of when I'd sit down to watch Frankieonpc1080p DayZ content as a young teen. Content is of course very different, just the same vibes that I oh so enjoy.

[@gabzolutely]

5:36 you guys are hilarious 🤣

[@heretichamburger3775]

Me and some friends were stacking loot, we saw the tornado and were absolutely bamboozled, we raced to it as we had never seen it before. It caused our ship to glitch, sending us to the battle zone, much to the surprise of the crew doing it, then they chased us away while we were screaming “WHat THE FuCk did that tornado thing do!!??” They came back a while later. Amazing experience

[@navetwo]

Cliff who gets done 2 veils without sinking: "It turnes out, the whole legend of the veil is very easy." Me who tries it the same day and gets sunk 5 times in a row, not even getting to the tornado part: "You were lying! You are a liar!"

[@icemans1matedude339]

Its actually very hard to do a veil solo. Since you have to monitor everything and get your ship in a perfect spin

[@Spiringjurre]

Hey cliff! I tried one of the new legend of the veil voyage once, i was at the last stage. And then a brigantine appeared. I thought they were friendly, they even asked me what to do. I just told them to kill the ghost ships as i didn't knew what to do too. Shortly after that one of them snuck onto my boat and blunderblussed me in the back. These guys were quick and before i could respawn my ship had sunk. I tried 2 more times (with a crew) and we easily cleared it!

[@MoustachioFurioso83]

Your comments on Athena emissaries in previous video always made me think "I can't wait until he experiences this pain firsthand". And lo and behold... Then again, the new Legend of the Veil voyage is perhaps paradoxically much quicker and safer than the previously available Athena ventures, as those either make you sail all over the map or constrain you in one small region, easily checked by server hoppers. It also gives you a grade five flag just for completing it thoroughly, when you need up to two standard voyages for the same result.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

It's a far fetch from something like a Thieves Haven run for sure, which I guess was the goal? I'm sure Rare wants to see more people running Athena since that barrier to entry made it very unappealing

[@thomasjacobs9312]

Hi Cliff! I love your videos and have an interesting challenge for you! Me and my buddy already took it on and did it first try and I think you’d enjoy it! The challenge is to complete every Siren Shrine and Treasury in one run. It can be tough but it’s a great experience and has a great loot haul in the end! :)

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

I'll consider it 👌

[@Lizardlord6]

Can't wait for birdie to optimise that damn mcnugget record

Cliff I started watching your channel a week ago because I am big fan of SoT since its release With that being said I wanna thank you for all the efferts you put in this videos,recently my will of playing has decreased because of all the toxic communities of all games but SoT:for me it feels like home,a game to play and be happy to play it There are not many content creators for this game and finding your channel has made my day one week ago and still your stories give me the same feelings Thanks and keep improving❤

Had an ambush like the one you set up at the end happen to me the first time I went to sell an athena chest. The guy whiffed really bad and I sold the chest before killing him myself, so it was pretty funny. Even if I had died, I was only selling it because the 2 galleon alliance I was in was letting the newbie turn in their first athena (I'm still not pirate legend myself yet), so the ambusher would have been dealing with like 6 more guys killing him. It was a pretty fun way to end that voyage.

Great as always! I will add a small strategy comment. It barely happens but if there is another crew at the same location I send a decoy treasure to see if players are hostile. Reconnaissance never hurt.

me and a friend are somewhat new to the game and saw the giant tornado so we went to check it out. I was really hoping to get sucked in and experience something crazy so when it was just an island inside of it I was kinda sad. then we saw the athena crew. and yup. everything I heard was true. they immediately shot at us, even with us telling them that we're friendly and to not waste resources on us. we proceeded to play our instruments while our ship went down and one of them JUMPED INTO THE WATER TO KILL US. we killed him to prove a point to which he yelled "careful they're in the water!!" lmao. funny way to end a session.

[@Toma-621]

Recently did this voyage with a friend today... 3 times in a row. We were lucky to get a quiet lobby and the one other ship that was in the server was allianced with us so they also benefitted from us stacking the veils like pringles. Ended up making 600k gold (some came from fighting skelly ships, a very rude kraken and megalodon whomst tried to sink us back to back) and I leveled up from 1 to 24 in Reapers (I am pretty new to this game). It was a great time

[@josiahbishop6705]

I like how you had to pay those guys to attack you. LMAO. It's just so funny! Such nice guys :-)

[@magicpyroninja]

By the way for anybody who's unaware if you decide to start a pirate life ship instead of adventure the only difference is you start next to the castaway instead of waking up in the tavern and the ship is automatically a closed crew type you don't have to select it

[@Ben-de6rb]

I actually managed to solo the Legend of The Veil my first time I ever did it. Was it fun? In a masochist sort of way, yeah. The AI when I was playing were all snipers with the cannons and I was barely hanging on as I swore I was gonna sink at least four times.

[@alexfx7500]

I’ve solo slooped the veil so many times now, gets real easy and I have to give it the devs it’s fun.

[@Hi-qb4wl]

As an Athena emissary, the checking the horizon every 2 seconds is true as well as checking ladders and tuckers every 0.1 seconds

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Caught myself doing it when running Athena lmao

[@RedFunk]

Honestly I love the legend of the veil, it makes Athenas so much more worth while. With the lantern, and veil portions being world events it invites PVP. Before the veil Athenas was boring and tedious, taking several hours to reach rank 5, whereas for many other factions excluding the order of souls can do one voyage to do the same. This was a very much needed update.

[@ForTheOmnissiah]

Run it on a brigantine. The final stage is actually relatively difficult on a brig. On the sloop, it seems the npc cannons miss most shots, on top of that the sloop is resilient. The galleon takes a lot of shots, but a vast majority are mid-deck, just keep your lower deck in check. The brig? You take on a LOT of water. Your whole crew has to be on top of things and planning out who does what is crucial to making it to even a bit smoothly.

[@Koubles]

I hope to run into you one day. Show you everything I've learned in naval strategy and good cannon shots.
