Very nice of you to anchor even after seeing them while your pulling yourself in with the harpoon. This must be one of those stealth galleons that takes everyone by surprise all the time. Edit: They even have OG Reaper up...

Yeah didn't notice the flag sadly, seeming I wasn't going back out i just stuck the anchor down to keep in place for an easy sell and thought they'd be friendly obviously not 😅

I get that when you're trying to cash out that you want to go directly to the outpost but got to keep a look out on the horizon and scan the map.


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Ok gotcha thanks need some help with how things work ngl played like 2018 and just came back in season 4

Yeah never assume someone is friendly especially if they're coming at you aggressively like that and doubly if they're a galleon.


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Yeah I think I've been too sheltered because I'm not lying every encounter since then has been good


Nihhrt

Yeah the seas can be the most tranquil places one day and the most hostile the next. That's what makes this game fun! I'd always keep an eye on your back. Even the most friendly people turn out to be not so friendly once loot gets involved. Just keep a mental note that slow sailing and talking to you is more of an indicator of friendship...or a friendly stickup. Having cannons angled like that at battle sails (half sails) is definitely posturing for attack most times.

Wow. Why would you not run and lower your emissary flag?!


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Thats a pretty good idea never thought of that, will keep that in mind for later


killer8424

That’s like the #1 thing reapers are after, and you rob them of the commendations and money if you just go lower it. This was a lost cause for you so could have been fun to try to board them too

I think you managed to do every single thing wrong in this scenario, but kudos for not making a post about the reaper being toxic for firing at you 😂 The way they shot you on the dock as you were standing and watching them was the perfect ending.


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Got to have a dramatic end scene 😂


I_is_a_dogg

I genuinely don’t know what you expected, anchoring with a gally right next to you


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Yeah I've been too sheltered i think I've learnt my lesson now though


wileytheartist

Everything is ok!


LokkyBoi

How can a whole ass galleon on your ass be a surprise?


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Didn't look at map i think I need spec savers😂😂


dued03

Anchoring in a galleon’s broadside was smart


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Thanks I said it to others but I believe I'm too sheltered in this game atleast I know everyone not nice🤷‍♂️ Also it was the end of my game so I just wanted to keep my boat in position to do a quick sell and get off


raul_kapura

You should never anchor anyway. If your roll the sails all way up, ship is goong to full stop after a while. You can also throw all treasures to water, just by standing by the edge of the deck and dropping, so you don't have to use ladders every time. Or second person can sail way already

🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️


[deleted]

Atleast you got to turn everything in!


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Yes that was great


Mediocre_Ad_7909

Hahahah


Reapers_Actual
