Sea of Thieves beginner’s guide: 16 tips for new pirates
25.04.2024 - 19:01 / digitaltrends.com / Phil Hornshaw
Cooperative piracy simulator Sea of Thieves is a game that drops players right off the plank and into the deep end of the ocean as soon as they start it up. You’re left to figure out how to do almost everything alone or with a crew of friends. All of it is picked up through experience as you play, which is part of what makes Sea of Thieves interesting. There are tons of little nuances and best practices, however, that you need to become an effective pirate.
If you want to win sea battles, escape plunderers, gather treasure, and generally be the best pirate on the Sea of Thieves, there is a lot to learn. Luckily, these tips will make you an effective sailor, a deft brawler, and a smart privateer when you join up with a crew. Going it alone has its perks as well, so check out our tips for your lone pirate voyages.

Sea of Thieves found time to add a tutorial mission for pirates first starting out, called Maiden Voyage. It’s difficult to overstate just how useful this tutorial is: It’s a safe spot without marauding PvP players that walk you through how to sail your ship and gets new players better acquainted with the world as it is. There’s also a chance to get some exclusive loot to wear! Since Thieves can be a little intimidating to first pick up and master all the controls for various activities, we highly suggest you don’t skip this mode.

Your progression will be limited in this mode, but it’s the perfect place to practice all the mechanics available before heading into the more dangerous waters.
Follow your compass
A huge aspect of Sea of Thieves is solving riddles and puzzles. In true pirate fashion, many of these ask you to take “X paces” in one direction or another. Counting your steps isn’t so easy in a game, but if you hold up your compass while walking you can get a much clearer signal for every pace your character takes.
Raise the right flag
As mentioned numerous times, teamwork is what makes Sea of Thieves special, so make sure you’re teaming up with fellow pirates. By raising a specific flag on your ship, you’re signaling to other players that you want to cooperate. If one ship raises the “Offer Alliance” flag any other close enough can join an alliance with them to work together to complete quests and go on adventures. It also marks your fellow members on your
