So I went on my first co-op Dark Sea expedition today with a single friend. I’m the only one with a brig, so we took my ship, and went to Insanity 1. We got a good handful of loot, had a good amount of fun, but then, when we were on our way back to the boat on one of the islands, a tornado spawned ON THE BOAT.
We could not go back to the boat. However. I had been off the boat for a while. So I started getting Water Poisoning. There was nothing to hide under for a mile. So I died. Needed to be revived. Okay. Not bad. Time to head back to the Bronze Sea.
However, on the way back, we saw an island we hadn’t explored. So we went to explore it. Bad idea. Atlantean spots me while I’m climbing, and within one actual genuine second, my health drops to 0. The brig despawns, all our loot is gone, and it’s over. A one hour Dark Sea expedition, with nothing to show for it
This reminds me of my last expedition.
Had like 10 chests and went to loot a siren rock. While i was fighting them one by one an atlantean ship that i thought i lost attacked my ship. I tried to take command and run but right before reaching the wheel a wave took me far away while a siren was still agro on me AND got water poisoning all at the same time.when i reached the boat i had double digits of health and died right on top of the bath.
10/10 game.
from what i understand atlanteans/atlantean ships don’t lose agro until you kill them or they despawn and they don’t despawn quickly so even if you lose an Atlantean ship it WILL find you
In terms of raw loot gain, yeah its better to go solo. But its WAY more fun going with friends imo, and when it comes to stuff like this Im looking to have fun
God, yeah, it is completely and utterly pointless and only serves to make the Dark Sea more annoying. If that wasnt in the game then I’d always go to Insanity 1 or higher
…Chat what do we mean by invisibility not working. What did we mean by that. What does invisibility not do anymore.
Idk, I mean I dont have very much HP (as you can see in the screenshot) but the dude was also spamming attacks, I think I got hit by three attacks in the span of one second
so to answer your question vetex nerfed invisibility idk when (cuz i only got back into ao in february after quitting for 6 months) but basically before you could chug an invis pot and atlateans wouldn’t see you and sirens too but now it doesn’t work on atlateans or sirens anymore so if you basically drank invis and walked up to an atlantean they’d aggro
the only potions you should chug during a castrum raid are revealing tbh cuz it’s broken and the dumbass npcs get stuck idk how castrum is still so broken tbh
