Sea of Thieves Cheats for XOne

If you have a fully stocked galleon and four crew you may want to consider assaulting a fort as doing so can earn you vast amounts of gold. Forts are indicated by the giant skull clouds floating in the air that you can see for miles around in every direction. A successful assault on a fort will start by taking out the cannon towers on the side of the island you approach. Once you have done this leave at least one crew member on your ship to keep it afloat, provide covering fire, and one eye out for other pirates approaching the fort. Meanwhile the rest of the crew must survive wave upon wave of increasingly powerful skeletons and a final boss who when defeated will drop a key for the fort's treasure room.

Use your spyglass to keep an eye out for gulls circling over the open ocean as they indicate a shipwreck which you can loot. While you are looting a shipwreck always leave someone on board to keep an eye out for rival ships and be as quick as possible.

One way that you can supplement your regular income is to find an empty pig cage or abandoned chicken crate and when exploring the islands keep an eye out for exotic looking animals that you can capture and take back. Like chests animals have rarity and although you will get far less than an animal that is a requirement of a voyage from the Merchants Alliance you will still earn some gold.

Don't be in a rush to leave an island, especially if it is a big one once you have completed what you where commissioned to do. The chances are there will be bonus chests tucked away there somewhere, so if there are no rival sails cresting the waves of the horizon it is worth your while to spend a few minutes having a look around. Pay special attention to high spots and caves as these are the most likely places you will find them.

While you are adventuring make sure you keep an eye out for valuable items that you can sell to the Merchants Alliance rep for gold. This includes crates of silks, spices, barrels of gunpowder, sugar and tea. The most likely places you will find these items is in caves, around jetties, and at abandoned or ruined houses on the larger islands.
