Tough competition between these two for me:
- Getting stuck in an Atlantean boat while fighting them
- Getting a thunder check while fighting Sirens

a tornado spawned on top of my boat while i was exploring an island and i got water poisoned right after
On my first expedition i thought the abandoned ship was an atlantean ship so i rammed perpendicular into it, getting my brig stuck on it
Disconnected with a decent amount of dark sealed chests while in combat with atlanteans
Water poisoning after fighting against wind and ileg atlanteans (i was red hp)
The good old classic, crappy internet. Lost four Dark Sealed chests! How fun!
my ship got stuck on nothing.

On the 3rd range of the Dark Sea, I fought a level 300+ Atlantean while kiting around with earth blast and glass beam.
Suddenly the game decided to finally load the 2 OTHER level 300 Atlanteans and one of them had an annoying dagger build and kept hitting me, they caught me off guard, I died and lost 30+ chests, sigh.
i got bugged and eating stopped working
so i died to hunger loss with like 20+ chests because i couldnt muster the strength to shove a coconut down my throat

Not a run ender, but i had been captaining some dudes ship (since the actual captain wasn’t wanting to go back even though everyone else did) then my laptop was low on battery. i told someone to take over, sit emoted, then went to go plug in. i clipped through the ship and died. The others recovered the loot though
Same shit happened to me on two different runs. It happens to the best of us 
Ooo I got a good one.
So I hear the Song of Sirens, as I call it, and track it down. This is in the Insanity 1 or 2 area by the way. I don’t quite remember.
But low and behold, little did I know, there’s an Atlantean ship travelling behind me. Anyways, I find the Rock and park next to it, and the Atlantean ship crashes into me.
Wanna guess WHAT ship? No, because I’m gonna tell you.
A HEAVY. YES, HEAVY. A HEAVY ATLANTEAN BRIG. WITH A MORTAR THAT SHOOTS EXPLODING SHELLS.
So this thing RAMS into me when I least expect it because I didn’t hear their theme, and PINS ME AGAINST THE ROCK, AND STARTS BOMBARDING ME AND MY CREW WITH EXPLODING SHELLS.
So I’m like “ah hell” and get outta there, start climbing the rock, cause my Brig is out for the count. No way I come back from this. I give up. So I’m like “I’ll just fight these Sirens and then… I dunno. Hope I get something good so I don’t leave empty handed.”
But remember how I stated that this is the I1-2 area? Wanna guess what happens in the I1-2 area besides Insanity?
Take a guess.
WATER POISONING. As soon as I reach the PEAK of the Rock, I GET WATER POISONING. And wanna know the main ways of removing this effect?
a) standing beneath a surface
b) washing it off
I CAN’T DO EITHER BECAUSE…
A) THE SIREN ROCK HAS NO SURFACES TO HIDE UNDER BESIDES THE TREASURE AREA WHICH IS GUARDED
B) MY BRIG IS GONE.
So uh, yeah. I’m done for, right? But I go “nah, I can take a few Sirens out with me.”
I get slaughtered.
That was my first time fighting Sirens. I didn’t know their attacks, how to counter them, so I die. Painfully. Miserably.
And I cried myself to sleep that day.
Not really.
But yeah, that was my horrific experience. What’s more is I think I had about 3 Sealed Chests, so not too many, but I’m still disappointed I lost them at all.
And no, I killed no Sirens.
Don’t get me wrong. It may seem like I’m complaining, but I’m really not. I love this update, and I laugh when I look back at that experience because of how stupid my own luck was.
No fault on the game, or on Vetex, or on anyone else. Just me and Lady Luck having another brawl.
And me losing.

My brig fucking disappear while i was on an island
had like 15 chests on my first run when the update dropped and found a volcano while heading back, wanted to see how much damage touching it would do and my ping decided to spike at that moment
It’s between the time I disconnected the moment I made it out of the dark sea, and when I found the siren island for the first time, then disconnected as soon as I reach the top.
mine was actually my second run, when I had like 20 sealed chests and then when I was on an island I got rain poisioning when fighting an atlantean sigh
-Ship front got clipped inside a shipwreck and they don’t despawn, waves crashed and killed my ship.
-Toxic rain, made it back to my brig and then failed to tap the “bathe” function by .1s, died.
Surprised noone said it yet:
Getting some idiot ghost onto my ship because they were just hovering in the dark sea and anchoring my boat
Wasting 47 minutes trying to go to the insanity 1 region. It is beyond me as to how that happened
More context to this:
So I wanted to record my True Captain attempt and headed to the dark sea following the white end of the dark sea compass.
Minutes go by and I have not seen a single island, only shipwrecks. Only yielding 3 dark chests, and still not getting insanity 1 after that much time. I checked if I am still following the white end, and I am still on that course and still not on the insanity 1 range after so long.
So I cut my loss and headed back to the bronze sea and the 3 dark chests only covered a quarter of the costs I prepared for this attempt.
1v1’d a high level Atlantian without taking damage and then got water poisoning and died trying to find my Brig.
