The HARDEST Way to Play Sea of Thieves

The HARDEST Way to Play Sea of Thieves
Today's episode definitely falls in line with a lot of my other rather.. 'Special' ideas. Rather than playing the game as intended, I was trying to come up with the HARDEST way to grind gold.
Of course, we have already done the rowboat thing so things had to level up from there. What about having to use ANOTHER crew's ship, meaning we couldn't avoid PvP? And what about a perma death ruleset? Yeah, now we're talking.
Naturally, with a challenge as tough as this, I had to get myself some help. Next to Birdie and Delphy we also got ourselves a special guest today..

I loved the part when Cliff said "it's storying time" and proceeded to tell the best story in the history of the sea of thieves.

Adore both the solo players who got boarded and just went along with it. This might as well happen.

As a solo fishing player myself, I will go along with basically anything, as long as someone approaches me without immediate murder

Don't know if you remember me but had a blast stealing the new funny chest with you ( we still don't talk about how i got black screened ). Either way great video :-)

Cliff, you gotta find a stool to give your rowboat a crows nest. it makes seeing over the wave so much easier lol

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

This might change rowboating forever..

[@mr.pumpkin8161]

Welcome back to Cliff's Rowy Adventures! In this episode Cliff with his crew of Birdy,Brandon,and guest Katie!! In this tale you will see the attempt to make a fleet or rowboats,the conversion of a random silent player,the talk about sleeping in a bed or on wood,and the fight against a skeleton fleet!! And about 20 skeletom captain skulls(the best skull)

[@mr.pumpkin8161]

NOOO MY EDIT GOT RID OF THE HEART NOOO

[@Mr_Walshyyy]

just watching one of your old videos. Summoning the rarest meg and saw this. Love your vids!

[@CinematicSeriesGaming]

In all the years of watching KZbin videos, I came to the conclusion that there are 2 types of creators: "video creators" and "content creators". The "video creators" are people who make unique, well edited and distinct videos where everything is deliberate and made with care. And the "content creators" are people who are less ambitious but instead focus on consistency and frequent uploads. In the times when KZbin is dominated by "content creators" who produce mediocre videos that blow up mainly due to good timing, clickbaity titles and oversaturated thumbnails, I'm very happy to see that there are still proper "video creators" like you who get some recognition. Cliff, your videos are very entertaining, well structured, well edited and professional. I wish you the best and I'm sure you're gonna have a million subscribers in no time. Are you planning on expanding your content perhaps? I would love to see some other games featured on your channel. Your style of storytelling would fit a lot of different games like GTA Online, Hitman, Red Dead Online, Star Citizen and many more. You could be like Modest Pelican but you know... with actual talent XD

[@ItzFoxUwU]

Cliff seams to be just doing what he enjoys which is fantastic, I don't really think he really has to expand.

[@adamgrimaldi1560]

Cliff bro this was great. I first started watching ya about 8 months ago on an off till I finally subed bout 5 months ago. Your stories inspired me to play sot as just myself. Playing to make my own stories to share with others on the seas, and I'm happy to say I've become a professional sea hobo with countless stories of my own now, as well as spend most my times doing so looking the part and using the best sea vessel in the game, a rowboat lol. Thank you for your hardwork and content, your stories and the inspiration to just do what ya gut tells ya on such a game, and the crazy ideas you come up with.

[@SourSourSour]

Love the emphasis on just playing around and having fun with the game rather than purely focusing on grinding a bigger number of loot.

[@Galactic__Wolf]

A bit late since I was working but another fun video to watch! Happy Tuesday everyone ! Also lets go! Glad to see Katy on board

[@TazerLazer05]

Not relevant to the video but i just had to get this out here. I recently visited the reapers hideout with my crew to sell a little bit of loot. After getting on the island we spotted what were about 20 chests near the beach. Almost instantly reaching reaper emissary lvl 5 after just picking up all the loot we sold all of it for a hefty profit of around 420000 gold in about 30 minutes. It is moments like this why i absolutely love this game. Great video btw and much love from Germany :D

[@halstensmith5500]

Cliff knows exactly how to make a KZbin video, short yet attention retaining it is absolutely the perfect way to get me to enjoy a video, plus the shenanigans and his ability to warp everything into a cool story is absolute perfection.

[@Elgallo1107]

A couple months ago cliff tried sinking a ship with the chest of sorrows didn’t work out but recently they added the everlasting sorrow as an item you can find and there are quests that only give you cursed chests so maybe give it another go?

[@steam2424]

Two of my favorite SoT-tubers uploads video at the same day, this made my day.

[@ardabaki4597]

this rowboating adventure gave me an idea , but if it was to be achieved it shall be a legendary feat for the pirates of all kinds. and that is to ...... get a whole server on a rowboat

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

are there even enough rowboats on a server for that

[@justbacon9567]

[@cynicalbongo]

"'Wake up, Cliff The Story Guy uploaded''

[@bobobserver8990]

I have half a mind to convince the crew to try doing this or going via an armada of rowboats...If not for the fact the crew visits the Sea of Thieves about as often as Davy Jones visits dry land. Still a crazy story to listen to.

[@pirusaogostoso741]

Several times as a solo sloop my ship got boarded by two or more pirates claiming me as hostage an taking my vessel to pvp encounters, I never scuttled, I always played along, just to stab their back when they were most as helpless as possible

[@DarraghMontgomery]

I have stolen so many ships, for so many reasons. Last time I dressed entirely in red, with white hair and as the person was doing the pirate's life tall tale in the coral fortress I just stole their ship and filled it with loot, and kegs. Unfortunately they got back in the middle of me filling it with kegs so there was explaining to be done, and the conversation very much did start with "Don't shoot me, I'm holding a Keg" But hey sometimes Santa's deliveries go a lil strange.

Hardest way to play sea of thieves is to be solo

So when I spotted a Sloop parked at an island I Cannon over to engage the casing ship. I survived about 8 minutes befor the owner came back and blunder buss me but damage was done and the chasing Sloop was engage with the stolen sloop. Creating enough of a gap to safely sell are chest.

Done this with my crew on a galley before except we never moved our ship and shot off to find our rowies from spawn at dagger tooth we ended up finding our first rowie at the isle of last words we then headed over to crooked masts and took a sloop hostage sailing it halfway to a fof at hidden spring keep we then continued on our original rowy to the fof and sank a brig in the process of completing it using a cannon rowboat we found at the Fort after completing the fof we went all the way to ancient spire on our rowies where we came across a galleon which gave us our first few casualties but we ended up sinking it in the end thus ending my crews rowboat adventure surprisingly enough no one came by our galleon at daggertooth the entire time(sorry for adding a whole story over your video cliff 😂) -also these events lead to me getting my next captained galleon and naming it the rowboat gang
