[@PhuzzyBond]

This is a very finely crafted video. Thank you

[@HappyKrakenX]

Means the world coming from the master of guides himself!

[@sacramentokas5087]

Great video Kraken!! You got a new subscriber In me. And Phuzzy, you are not only truly a world class pirate, but a world class human being. You are not just my favorite SoT streamer but also my 7 yr old daughters favorite, and your videos are kid friendly and wholesome. I know I should post this on your channel, but I saw your comment on kraken's video and saw an opportunity to let you know.... keep up the great work you two!!

[@jisibat3515]

wassup Phuzzy

[@jrsimeon02]

These are actually very good tips... for crews. Unfortunately it doesn't address the glitches that screws over solo sloopers. Just yesterday I sunk due to fps freezing. Thanks Rare!

[@hft5988]

love you phuzzy!

xD they sell for like 100 gold, so not worth it haha

[@jCHASEm87]

I need 50 Athena kegs to unlock the Ghost wheel 😭

[@lookinfrontofyou]

@@jCHASEm87 good luck

[@itsSteaLy]

[@yoshyfoods]

I’d feel horrible telling my friends that love kegs with a passion this, because I refuse to PVP with them

[@UnoReversecard-ys8vl]

Kraken: it’s the smallest ship in the game Cliff the story guy: challenge accepted

[@ZXD34MEEP]

ROWBOAT TIME!

[@maxter0842]

so what do i do if it's just me

[@stfu_ayden]

run away

[@Daikyu9.47]

I watched a lot of SoT guides and consider this one the best of all of them! It perfectly covers a lot of sides of the game, short, usefull and with great background video. Enjoyed every tip, even if I've already new it. Thank you for this video, it's a must-watch in new season

[@HappyKrakenX]

Aww thank you dude this means so much! Glad to hear it helped!

[@fearlessfawn]

Another awesome video, Kraken! Tips and tricks are always helpful for those of us that don't sail as often any more. It's so nice to get a refresher on all the things that slip my mind getting back into the game. Thanks

[@ragnarvalhalla4392]

What is a lootstack? I only know the bottom of the sea. Its nice there. The crabs singing songs and nice shark who will cuddle with there teeth.

[@Trexor_]

7:25 i absolutely love getting harpooned in a battle by the enemy as it almost always gives me the win.. unless i'm solo that is, then i might sink if i have holes. and there is a little tip that i have when in the death spiral, you can get a cannon row boat on your ship that way the helm can also shoot and then it's a matter of seconds before the ship sinks.

[@Sn0wyyCat]

I have watched a LOT of PvP guides recently (mostly curiosity of what people think is important) and there's a lot of stuff that people get wrong. You're honestly spot on with pretty much everything you covered, there wasn't anything that I disagreed with and you covered a bunch of the stuff that people outside of comp often forget. really good job with this, very well done

[@daniellowe86]

Love the video, I mostly sail solo or duo sloops. I learnt a lot from this video and will definitely be using some of these tips in the new season 8 PVP.

[@HappyKrakenX]

Hell yeah glad to hear it dude!! Glad it helped!

[@thebeachedwhale2]

Thank you for all the great tips! My husband and I are trying to get better at sailing together and at avoiding the panicked meltdowns. A CAPSTAN would be a great addition to our boat :)

[@ToxicDragonzz]

been on the sea of thieves hype for the last 2 weeks again and stumbled across this video. Just wanted to say this is one of the best, most straight forward and easy to understand videos ive watched in years. really good work! you earned my subscription easily!

[@stefanvangool3148]

I would love to see a Video like this for both the Brigantine and Galleon as well. Far harder to handle, but also interesting to see. Great work, keep it up!

[@HappyKrakenX]

Thank you dude I appreciate the suggestion! I definitely know the most about sloop but can see if I can do a similar vid for gallys and brigs!

[@pepepepperooni]

Thank you, we have been struggling with my friend with the PVP side as neither of us enjoy the PVP matches. So both of us are coming from PVE side. Thank you for taking the time and making the guide!

[@zaccampa4055]

It just takes practice and don’t forget that everyone sinks. Just learn from each fight and you’ll continue to get better.

[@Monst3rCaptain]

This is exactly what kind of video I have been looking for! Most videos are just shoot in this direction when turning this way and that way and never really going into why you wanna turn into a specific way and when, great video!

[@HappyKrakenX]

Awww thank you I'm so glad it helped!

[@KleinerDrache]

an amazing Tutorial with lots of good to know details and well explained. Well done Kraken and appreciate it so much!

[@Bene_Singularis]

I think it's the best informative video out there for sloopers who want to become good for real.

[@Code_Exodus]

If you got'em I recommend either of the Forsaken Ashes cannons, they have a more narrow neck allowing a bit more visibility while having one of the closest things to a iron sight on the lip of the cannon. It just takes some practice getting use to where it points as to where the cannonball goes, the subtle glow the ends give off can also help slightly at aiming it in low light combat.

[@HappyKrakenX]

Ooooh nice tip!

[@spankyjeffro5320]

Squirrel cannons are bought. But, very good for the range rings and the spikes that mark the center. Plus, they're squirrel-themed! Can't go wrong with squirrels! XD

[@gabbythebacca1978]

I’m glad you made this video! I’m trying so hard to get better at solo PvP and sloops in general.

[@benrinehart7776]

Great vid helped me change somethings I was doing wrong 🤘

[@tommys5865]

I'm jealous of the fluidity in the gameplay you display at high settings. I can't bring myself to turn down the settings when I play the game with the GPU that I have. Love the content and the info that you provide to us as well plus, the entertainment! :)

[@queenbee8557]

Kraken these are very good tips for how to work together for a sloop!!!

[@sayakashinara]

I am actually learning something from this and will def try these tips when i start to pvp

[@ndawg2478]

A fine CAPSTAN is that Obsidian Capstan. Kraken what can I say, you are constantly putting valuable content out for the community! Love all you do for the SoT family, much love!

[@3amoorzi]

Beautiful tutorial, thank you!

[@SilllyGilly]

[@offenddcamel]

[@jennystarveling]

This is brilliant! I love playing Sea Of Thieves and some of these tips are awesome! Totally never occurred to me to use the cannon rowboat as a separate cannon

[@HappyKrakenX]

Oh I looove a cannon rowboat haha it's super fun!

[@261tallguy1]

Thanks so much Kraken I'll definitely improve with the tips you have given awesome vid catch you soon next stream 😎👍

[@myftix]

CAPSTAN Been playing since launch and I had no clue that sails affected the stability of cannon angles. Much appreciated.

[@imsmiley_cyrus]

i just started playing again! thank you for the helpful video!

[@fyrexd2355]

I love your energy and love all you do! Keep it up! You and serpz are absolutly adorable as well

[@HappyKrakenX]

You are very welcome!

[@gjgeraldy]

Nice tips. I'm not much of a PvP-er but I'll try to keep them in mind.

[@LvngDeadGirl717]

Thank you for the great video

[@jhonnecrobucher3570]

Nice vid keep working with that job and enjoy

[@SlimmCity]

Nice video, I'm a new player who is straight terrified of PvP and after watching this video I feel a little more confident and safer out there on the seas 😊🙏

[@thewebroom9055]

Idk why I haven't heard anyone give the steer with the sails tip b4! Game changer, thank you!

[@SpedoMayonaise]

I solo sloop, and this helped a lot, I wasn’t aware that there is a point of the mast that is better to hit than another, this helped a lot, thanks

[@neilu9471]

Perfect Guide ! Just need a good CAPSTAN to master the sloop now.

[@tribelha]

Thanks for all your stream i hop to have one day the obsi capstan x)

[@IslandboyWes]

Great video. I wish i watched this one before the ps5 beta. But im trying to soak as much as I can before release day. Appreciate the tips

[@HappyKrakenX]

You're very welcome!! At least you'll be ready when the game fully launches 😃

[@rickeyjones1133]

Very informative video in helping to manage a sloop.

[@jimf1007]

great vid thankzzz!

[@DconStarstormGaming]

Thanks for sharing this, I will try to use these tips to get better, even with the bigger ships too, as I'm usually with 3 other people playing. And I love the thinner cannons, I do better with them (still terrible shot but I want to get better at it). I got the Eternal Freedom ones and my friend just drools all over them because they are thin. My other friend likes her thick ones and I just can't hit anything with them. lol

[@xNightHawk32]

Thank you SO much! This is such a great video. Very intuitive, and easy to follow. 👍🏻 Do you stream on Twitch? I’d love to check out your stream if you do. 🏴‍☠️

[@itzenderhawk4653]

im so glad that we get to see the bottom part of the reaper area. I love this update!

[@jonny6133]

Amazing video!

[@zigoter2185]

On tip 6 I can add, that you dont have to spend much time repairing a mast if you catch it. So you can make catching a mast a priority, because it doesn't take much time, especially when you have a teammate who can fire cannons at the enemy while you catch the mast. Having a mast up is also good, because it can serve as a distraction, especially when enemy crew isn't particularly experienced, they may try to knock your mast down over and over, which means that they aren't making any holes in your ship. And you can just keep catching the mast without actually repairing it. What's also important about masts is that chainshot one shots them on brigs and galleons, but only makes 2 hits on a sloop. This means that its not worth to repair masts with more than one plank mid-fight if you are sailing a brig or a galleon, because one chainshot will knock the mast no matter what. This also probably true for sloops, it just takes too much time.

[@kirstenjones3850]

Absolutely love the Capstan!

[@J0hNnY5_0G]

Nice!.. my boy and I need these tips..couple noobs always getting attacked, win some loose most😅
