A Warning on Public Ships

[J.T.]

I was on a public ship last night and received a warning from a pirate that was on board. I don't know much about it myself, but thought I'd tell you all just to put the word out.

Apparently, there's a group of pirates going around in some sort of PvP glitch where they leave the PvP areas and are able to fight anywhere. However, this isn't your usual PvP glitch. I was told that when they do this, they appear as the PvP zombies. The thing is, apparently they can attack anyone, inside or outside of the glitch, and are boarding public ships. When there, they attack the people on board, ko'ing them. Once they remove the people from the ship, they take the ship, sink some ships with it, port it, and steal the cargo.

The guy who told me about this said it's happened to him multiple times already, and 4 hours of plundering was wasted. While there, another person on board told us that it happened to a friend of his. Another friend has since told me that it has happened to him. I don't know exactly how they're doing this glitch, and I've yet to see them myself.


I was told the names of 1 of the pirates, as well as their guild, as captured in a screenshot by the one who informed me of this. Of course, I won't say it on here. The people have been reported a few times, so something may change soon.


So everyone, have good luck, and be safe/cautious out there on your public ships for the time being.
