[@roryfarrell3587]

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)

[@n0xxm3rcyxx]

I like the maneuverability of a sloop and the anchor has a way shorter raise time. I choose sloop. I do anchor turns all the time solo. Its nice.

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

Yes, but sailing against the wind takes longer than if it were at your back or sides. As such, it's... probably equal, really. In this situation, the galleon just loses regardless.

I think your right but i still Think its dumb to play on a 2 man brig

[@flameshame7]

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.

[@DynoSkrimisher]

[@FriesOnYt]

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

[@extrphat2233]

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.

[@bangkokstallion]

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

[@ryanmcdowell246]

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.

[@noahsmith1787]

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

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 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.

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.

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.

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 👍🏼

[@misteralias2850]

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.

[@buntings]

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

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

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.

[@koolbeans3572]

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.

[@arrilocknewmoon9620]

skeleton galleons are stupid easy tho on a brig, if you have one guy board while the other guy peppers them with holes you can keep them from repairing AND shooting if ure good enough at the PvE and sink them in under 2 minutes. Give it a shot sometime, also helps with finding the loot after since one guy is sitting on it :D

[@thedemonunderyourbed3587]

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

[@joseph3946]

Well actually, i like 2 man brig, because the easier to bail thing really helped me a lot, and the "more firepower" is actually a thing, mostly on world events although, and finally it's faster and it can outrun anything (under certain circumstances), and yes, the brig can be faster than anything if you know how to use it.

[@kriseightyfive5854]

Same, he just showed brig crews who couldn´t handle it. But we actually manage to win 9-10 pvp fights. On rare occasions we meet players like this guy, and yeah you lose some, but what gives right. Entering most fights we angle the ship and then start blasting sloops, wich most of time results in them trying to pannick board us. 2nd thing for us is the whole immersion on a bigger ship aswell. It´s just a matter of preference.

[@xendordawnburst9969]

I think that Abandon Ship strategy would only work in hard-to-see environments and weather... so fog or storm!

[@DrExpertPhd]

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

[@trevorkaran9970]

Best reason to two man a brigantine would be the extra sail, although it can be extra work when in combat you won’t be completely crippled if they land a single chain shot, but it’s still better to two man a sloop

[@thafatslimshady7846]

The wind thing. It's not an issue it is intended. The galleon has more sails therefore the wind will be pushing and more surface therefore going faster. But the when against the wind the wind will be pushing back on more surface therefore making it incredibly slower, the sloop only has one sail. The wind will be pushing on the least surface (compared too the other ships) therefore making it the slowest with wind but against the wind the wind will still be pushing back on the least surface therefore not changing the base speed all that much therefore making it the fastest against wind

[@soullinks]

I think the issue isn't the speed of each ship, it's that you are faster with sails against the wind rather than to the side, which makes no sense

When you are behind an object the wind wont hit you Let's say for example, bicycles. When you're riding a bicycle and try to pedal as fast as you can the wind will slow you down. If you are bicycling behind a truck the bike speed is faster.

[@zacharyscott3038]

The main reason that I have seen for people being on a Three player ship is because the Brigantine has been classified as the fastest ship in the sea of thieves. Generally people would rather out run their enemies. Instead of having to face them while caring valuable loot. Since the new updates the game of sea of thieves has changed A lot. For example the mega keg has been nerved and will no longer instantly sink a ship. This causes people to be more strategic about how they use their gun powder. Instead of putting it below deck and jumping off the side, it’s better to put it by a mast. Because this would destroy the mast and have a higher chance of killing players on top of the deck. It’s not about how efficiently you can sink a enemy ship. It’s about slowing them down long enough to sell your valuables. Weather in the drop in the anchor, keying their masts or setting them on fire. These are all things that slow down the ship and make it impossible for others to pursue. It is unfortunate however because this encourages people to run away more often than actually stay and fight. A pirate never earned their name by how much loot they gathered ,rather how many ships they sank and how many people they killed. Another thing that is happened is the encouragement of peacefulness. With so many achievements to acquire, and the black market offering deals worth gold. It is more efficient to complete missions together gold to steal and rob other people. Generally the payout is not as good because the likelihood of finding a ship with a lot of loot on it is low. Most people know not to do that. So peacefulness is encouraged because of a lack of reward for destroying ships. I think the solution for this would be to create more achievements that encourage players to attack one another.

[@NoodleVerse]

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
