Helmsman Guide --- (Role 1/4)

The galleon "button" for angle actually made me yell. I never knew.

Damn your videos are golden, im sorry to what happened to your channel (he got hacked and nuked)

I am the helmsman ans not because it's the only thing left It's cause I have 300 ping constantly so that's the only thing I can actually do well

Wait. if a sloop with sails raised all the way causes waves, then how are we supposed to harpoon loot with the waves?

Could you possibly, maybe make chapters in all these 4 part role guides so I can go back to things?

I am the helms man in my crew since release and i love it

Nah as my teams resident helmsman I run the wheel, keep the other scallywags in check and ordered, and back up board cuz I'm just that gud 😂😂

Sooo where's the 4/4 guide mate? :D I loved those 3 videos they have opened my eyes to so many things I never knew even though I've been playing the game since almost the launch. I wish you made some updated guides

very informative thank you for the video. one suggestion I might add is harpoon play on a sloop or brig. it can be incredibly OP to just get one opposing player out of the game with a harpoon-blunderbus play. of course this is also very specific, it only works when you're very close to the enemy ship, but it is such an effective play.

Don’t end up like Beckett from at worlds end

Im the Helmsman bc i like it best and out of all my friends who play with me, im the best at it

I havent played in a couple years, but i was almost always helmsman, almost always on gallys.
I had a solid crew or two, and as helmsman i was also mostly captain, calling out tasks/moves for each crewmate on the fly.

Steering the ship, id have to let them know when to move sails, anchor turn, when we were going to be in firing angle, when to harpoon to pull us into position.

The crew knew what they were doing, so it wasnt pure command, and what we chose to do was a team vote/agreement.

Beautiful series, love the effort put in!

Accidentally found out that I'm a goated helmsman because our guy died to sniper and a cannonball. Now i need to watch a guide so i can start being the flex in my group

I wanted to be the helmsman from the beginning 😅

I really enjoy helmsman tbh. Generally on a Galleon, I'm either boarding, bailing water, or being a helmsman. In the case of the first one, I get someone else to do it (I'm probably best at PVP on my crew).

as a dedicated helmsman, idk lmao

"If you ram strat somebody, you're GOING to lose." HOLD MY BEER!

i had to take the job of Helmsman because my shipmates can navigate or steer worth shit

I became a helmsman because I like to bark orders at me crewmateys Yarrrrrrrrr

This is what a guide should be....

-No ads
- No weird guide name ( DO THIS TO WIN 16 STREAKS OF HOURGLASS )
- No wild edits
- No 2 min video of talking about the guide then 7 sec actually showing what it does

Just calm voice explaining so even a dumbass with short attention span can get it.


great in-depth guide 10/10

Why does he fight on the right side? Does the left side rule not apply to galleons

Helm is so frustrated. When we got head to head with another ship, i feel like none of the actions I take give us angles

I prefer being a helmsman makes me feel like the actual captian

To.keep angle on a sloop keep the boat between the lantern and sail length thing similar with brig

Ok, I get the geezer that made this video putting this much effort into the game. He's paid to, it's his job.

But to anyone that isn't being paid to play this game in some way, shape, or form, if you put this much effort into the game, you take it waaay too seriously and really genuinely need to go touch some grass. 😅

This amount of effort and coordination doesn't even make the game seem fun, it just makes it feel like work or a chore. It's only a cartoon pirate game ffs.

Appreciate the vids the sweats don't like to share secrets just sink me instead :)

how do i steer fn?

When chasing players, it is best to pray for a megalodon and a funny launch.

Heed my words.

I got SoT about a week after it’s PS release, and my friend who’s taught me the most figured the best way for me to learn helmsman was by dragging me into hourglass. If we sank, oh well we sank, and I could learn from it.

Idk i absolutely love being helmsman. Makes me feel like barbossa yelling out orders. Like "shut your trap and make way" lol

Nasally "I need pressure up here, guys!"
Lmao 😂

what is first broad?

Whats the best loadout?

Congratulations you have a new sub

Great guide. I need to practice this on skelly ships... I'm not good enough for PVP battles yet 😅

How do you do sharper turns in a ghalleon while staying modile?

I love being the helmsman I hate cannons and love sailing

I love being helm because the feeling of being up on the wheel constantly having to make adjustments because galley is so big and seeing my crew shooting tons of cannons is so cool, especially with how high up the helm is on galley

Can't even get into the legacy brawl server.....

The "hi" goes hard lol

me and my gal crew have a weird dynamic where me (the helm) and the flex board together and pretty much lock down their boat so the bilge and cannon can pummel them

Most thorough SoT guides on YT. Thx

Yeah me and my friends finally got around to playing with 4 people so I finally got to bring out my captained galleon and I've become the dedicated helmsman so now im learning how to do it better, also just because i can. Today we decided to unlock thestar protection accomodation and with a t5 emissary got 300000 gold from 6 orbs it was awesome we made like 400000 and it got me 2/3 the way to legend, just need 5 more ranks in merchants

Who’s here in 2025?

to be honest the helm is my favorite role

What are those cannons??

Say it with me kids: POT shots. And it's not even the right context for that.
