Can we make the ghost meg have a better chance of spawning? my friends and I have put in well over 1000 hours and have yet to see this meg once.
Ghost Meg
I hit 500 skeleton ships sunk around the time one of my crew hit 150. He's almost at 500 now, so I'm closing in on 1000 of those yet..
...not so much as a glimpse of a pale pink finned beastie. I'm closing in on grade V for not just one, but almost all of the other megs too.
I like it being super rare, but, I suppose if the game has a 10yr plan I have plenty of time to get that grade V sometime in 2025 or so. At this rate I'll be happy to just see it in all of 2019, lol.
@geoffman72 I'm okay with it being rare, but it needs a higher spawn rate, especially if they expect people to hit all 5 grades for the commendation. If most of the community can't even find it once, how many are actually going to get the commendation?
@kin6-nothin6 I agree wholeheartedly. I'm fine with commendations that are hard to get, requiring skill, or even a bit grindy. But this one depends wholly on luck. No amount of skill or dedication can change the fact you may never see one.
@ronin20 agreed. The game is built on grindy commendations. look at the commendations needed to get the legendary capstan and legendary cannons. But this specific Meg is just stupid. make her spawn only in fog or give her a chance to spawn in morning fog. With it being a SHROUDED ghost, having it be in a foggy environment would make sense.
I disagree.
I love that there is something in this game that is truly rare and hard to achieve.
When I do finally defeat the shrouded one - as I surely must one day - I want to wear a title that is truly admired, envied and asked about. I don’t want every title of commendation to be another “ oh yeah. Me too” thing.

The Game isn't build on grindy commendations, these were added as a treadmill for players who aproach it like as if it were about grindy commendations.
Imho you felt for a Marketing trap Rare needed to do, because 90% of players are gamers with a performanced focussed aproach on gaming systems, rather then playing games for fun.
What is the no 1 purpose of games.
Senseless time wasting fun and nothing else and not grind commendations or work any systems of.
Gamers miss that all day.It's good to have at least one rare beast and title.
I'd like a title for finding the Mysterious Box of Wonders.
I know someone who has killed the Ghost Meg and use the title you cannot see often in the Sea of Thieves.
Cool if such things exist and are based on luck, but not skill or time played or your Reputation Level.
Because it's a game to play not achievements to work of.
But everybody can aproach it like he want to.
But don't make false claims.
If the game would be build around grindy commendations they would matter somehow.
In games with vertical progression where you get stronger the gameplay is build around the grind, because it's mandatory and not an option.
You can play Sea of Thieves to the fullest and never care for whatever achievement and you wouldn't miss anything.
Grind is completely optional in this game so it cannot be build around this option you have to aproach the game.
Defeating The Shrouded Ghost - ITS REAL!!
