The Developer Update returns! Including some of the tweaks arriving in this week's update, news on recent cheater-tackling efforts and some changes to the reputation levels and rewards earnable in Safer Seas. Why not grab a drink and join Drew in the tavern when you're ready?

Safer seas was always supposed to be training wheels. I don't think we need to give people even more reasons to just avoid multiplayer

To everybody complaining About safer sees changes you’re just mad that you can’t ruin the fun for everybody else

the Safer Seas change is an L sorry

Rebalancing gold and rep rewards doesn't change the fact that Safer Seas does nothing to prepare new players for the human element of High Seas. If anything it risks them developing bad habits like anchoring with sails down, not regularly scanning the horizon, etc..

Safer Seas changes are interesting. Don’t agree with the 100% earn rate, but lowering the level cap at least strikes the balance.

RARE: "We promise that there will never be a pve only moder." Also RARE: Makes Saver Seas. "But we will keep gold and reputation at 30%." Also RARE: “We will now put gold and rep at 100%“ Rare just cant ceep promises. Now bring back arena and noone will complain.

That intro! *arrrr the feels* Good to see these back!

Please Bring Captaincy to Safer Seas. Even if the Sovereigns remain inaccessible I want my ship achievements for doing tasks on safer seas.

That music in the intro, just so nostalgic! 💜

The last Developer Update was 8th January 2020. Such a long time ago!! So glad to see it's return😊
