Sea of Thieves achievement guide & roadmap

Its very easy to make a chunky dent in the achievements for this game, some can be done right in the opening moments (Legends - "Cronch", What Shall We Do with a Drunken Sailor?), and some more soon after setting sail for the first time (Handbrake Turn, Full Billow and others).

There's a chunk of grinding to do (yay), inevitably for a live service MMO-ish type of game. As a fully open-world sandbox there isn't really a campaign as such - so in the guide here we have defined 'Story' as 'do everything for the three trading companies and become a Pirate Legend (Become Pirate Legend), plus the original sequence of Tall Tales.

The grind achievements are a grind, but they are unlocked as a consequence of getting commendations (i.e. unlocked at various points in the grind), so progress toward them isn't reported in the same way as a normal 'get X kills' type achievement. The achievements are all for the Grade 5 (highest) level for the category. These will take a good while to unlock them all - albeit with good use of Emissary flags to boost gold/XP its nowhere near as painful as it was at launch.

Nothing is missable and there's no difficulty setting - just set sail and enjoy!

But many achievements are Unobtainable; as they relate to the old Arena mode that was removed in a previous update. There is no way to get these and no chance of this ever being reinstated.

Note; this is an online-only shared-world game. Most of it you can solo, but some achievements require that you engage with other players, including Dead Pirates DO Tell Tales, Did Everyone See That?, Friends Not Foe, Legends - "The Greatest Race of All Time!", Legends - "This is Unacceptable!", Legends - "The Skullduggers", Tactical Chunder, I'm On A Whole New Adventure, and maybe Ignoring The Rules Of Engagement, How Appropriate! You Fight Like A Chicken and You Fight Like A Merchant as well.

It is highly recommended that you use microphone to contact other players, this is a great way to boost up achievements that require you to act as friends or foes. Also the LFG channels in the Sea of Thieves Discord are a great place to find people to sail with, for the achievements and also for general progress.

You ate a banana, skin and all.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

You can get this right at the beginning of the game in the tavern - select the banana from your inventory and eat it...

You set sail for the first time.

Story Ummissable Single or multi-player No glitches
Unmissable, and awarded just for getting started in the game - but some reports of it taking time (up to 2 hours) for it to unlock...

Your reputation level with a Trading Company increased for the first time.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
You'll get this pretty soon; completing the first initiation voyage for a faction will grant it.

You changed course by dropping anchor while the ship's wheel was at full lock.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
Just do what it says on the tin. You can do this anytime you're sailing.

You vomited for the first time.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
You can do this right from the beginning of the game - you start in the tavern, select the tankard from your inventory and drink it. Then go to the bartender and get more. Rinse & repeat until you puke... It takes 3-4 drinks to get this. And the drunken effects on screen are pretty convincing... When you vomit, catch it in your bucket so you have some vomit ready for Tactical Chunder

(Adventure) You became sick from undercooked food.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Eat raw/uncooked food and be sick.  This is easy right from the beginning with any meat.  Kill a chicken/snake/pig on any island to get meat if needed.

You killed a skeleton while it was 'cronching' on a banana.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player Previously glitched

Cronch means eat. Skeletons may eat a banana to heal if they are injured. Kill one quick while it is doing this. This was partially glitched back at launch but works fine more recently.

You earned ten Commendations.

Grind Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
You get a commendation for each level you unlock in the 12 grinds that exist for each of the three trading companies. You'll get this early in your journey grinding for all the other achievements.

You voted for and began a voyage put forward by one of your crew.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches
You need to be in coop for this; with your crewmate putting a Voyage on the table for selection - vote for it and start to pop the achievement.

You took part in the sinking of another crew's ship.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
So long as you are part of the crew you'll get this - you don't have to be the one shooting the cannon.

You sailed with all sails fully with the wind.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
Some reports (unconfirmed) that this can be glitchy, but you can attempt it anytime. Likely easiest solo so you can use the smaller ship. Just have a go ad adjusting the sails to get the speed boost, try to maximise this and the achievement should pop. Alternatively, you're quite likely to get this popping randomly as you sail about the place and just happen to get the alignment right...

You completed a Gold Hoarder voyage.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Gold Hoarders are one of the three factions you'll do missions for. These are the ones in the small tent with the gold key flag outside and a wizened dude inside.

The missions will be to find an island with an 'X' marks the spot, where there'll be a buried chest. Find the island and dig up the treasure to complete the mission. On completing the first one you'll likely unlock I Wanna Be A Pirate! as well.

You purchased your first Trading Company Promotion.

You burned a piece of food.

You've eaten at least one piece of every kind of fruit.

Do-all-the-things Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

You can scavenge all kinds from barrels on outpost islands.

Another crew took one of your chests and cashed it in.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches
This is basically the opposite of You Can Always Trust The Untrustworthy

You completed an Order of Souls Voyage.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

See It's A Pirates Life For Me, but for the Order of Souls you have to go to an island, kill skeletons and bring back their skulls.

(Adventure) As an Emissary of the Gold Hoarders, your greed knows no limits or borders.

Objective Ummissable Unknown No glitches

When you spawn in an outpost, go to the Gold Hoarders Tent and vote to raise an Emissary Flag.

You purchased a new ship customisation from the Shipwright.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
Ship customisations start at around 70,000 gold. There's a shipwright at most outposts - look on a jetty opposite the merchant in some cases at least.

You purchased a new Eye of Reach from a Weaponsmith.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
The Eye of Reach is the sniper rifle type weapon. You'll need around 13,500 gold, and there's a weaponsmith at most/all outposts.

You purchased a new blunderbuss from the Weaponsmith.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

You must first be level 15 for the faction, and then buy the emissary flag for 20,000 gold from their representative at any outpost.  Then (in the same room/area as the representative) vote to be emissary on the nearby table.

This will unlock if you're in a crew and you only vote - i.e. even if you're under lvl 15 and someone else buys the flag.

Conversely - you can also do this solo; just buy the flag and vote solo to raise it.

NB being an emissary increases XP gains significantly - helping with other achievement grinds.

Set sail in the Order of Souls' name and gathering skulls will boost your fame.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

You must first be level 15 for the faction, and then buy the emissary flag for 20,000 gold from their representative at any outpost.  Then (in the same room/area as the representative) vote to be emissary on the nearby table.

Conversely - you can also do this solo; just buy the flag and vote solo to raise it.

NB being an emissary increases XP gains significantly - helping with other achievement grinds.

(Adventure) Received the Commendation for earning 150,000 gold from Gold Hoarder voyages.

Grind Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Grind this Gold Hoarder commendation to level 5.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches
The opponent has to be a human player, from another crew.

You own ten Pirate Titles.

Grind Optional Single or multi-player Previously glitched
You can buy titles from the clothing shops on the last page - after they have been unlocked by progressing/grinding through the game. Some reports that titles earned prior to 1.0.2 (4th April 2018) don't seem to count toward the 10.

You had an attack blocked by an opponent, and were hit by them within five seconds.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches
This has to be against a human opponent! Is the opposite of You Fight Like A Merchant

You were victorious in a Kraken encounter and lived to tell the tale!

Objective Optional Single or multi-player Previously glitched

The kraken appears randomly as you sail around; it could spawn could happen anytime while at sea, to a single ship. There is no way to trigger it (nor avoid it) - except that it cannot appear at the same time as another world event. It is defeatable easily with a single ship - just keep hitting the tentacles with cannonfire until it retreats.

Avoid being grabbed by a tentacle and lifted off the ship - if you're solo this is the most likely way to end up sunk and fail.

(Adventure) You had twenty chests in your crew's possession... at the same time!

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Yeah, loot lots before turning in, and pray nobody takes you out. Easiest when working together for the achievement with 4 players on a galleon.

Use the Gold Hoarders' Ancient Vault quests - for 8 or so chests at a time.

Note the chests don't actually have to be on your ship - just in your "possession"; so just picking a chest up counts as making it yours.

You completed 'A Pirate's Life'.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

This is a Tall Tale mission that can be started from a character at a campfire at any outpost. Its the first in the sequence of Tall Tales in the Pirates of the Caribbean crossover.

The Merchant Alliance you now represent, never forget your extra percent.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

This will unlock if you're in a crew and you only vote - i.e. even if you're under lvl 15 and someone else buys the flag.

Conversely - you can also do this solo; just buy the flag and vote solo to raise it.

NB being an emissary increases XP gains significantly - helping with other achievement grinds.

Received the Commendation for earning 150,000 gold from Order of Souls Voyages.

Grind Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
Grind this Order of Souls commendation to level 5.

You cashed in a stolen Captain's Chest.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
You have to steal a chest from another crew and take it to the trading point. If you can be discreet, catching a ship on its arrival to an outpost, sneaking on, taking the treasure and sneaking around to the side back onto the outpost island would do it. Or go in with your crew guns blazing... Note that this is the opposite of Legends - "This is Unacceptable!". And that they could give you the chest...

You completed a Merchant Alliance voyage.

Story Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
See It's A Pirates Life For Me, but for the Merchant Alliance you have go fetch stuff (like catching an animal in a cage) and bring them back.

(Adventure) You cooked a piece of food on a campfire at night.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

This is easy to do anytime - there are campfires on all the outposts, and fruit available in the barrels dotted around the place. Just wait until nightfall, equip some fruit, and interact with the campfire to cook it.

You completed The Seabound Soul

Unknown kind Missability unknown Unknown No glitches

Complete this Tall Tale

You launched yourself from a ship's cannon onto a ship.

Objective Optional Single or multi-player No glitches
Find another player's ship, ideally one that is stationary at a port. Hope they don't shoot at you. Go to a cannon, unload it if it has a cannon ball in it and aim at the other ship. Its helpful to aim at a mast (you won't take damage for hitting it!) so you can splat the mast and fall to the deck. Once aimed, go up to the front of the cannon barrel and use the action to get in it. Then fire self, and win!

You located the missing ship on a Lost Shipment Voyage without finding all the clues.

Unknown kind Missability unknown Unknown No glitches

You completed 'Captains of the Damned'.

Objective Optional Unknown No glitches

You played the same shanty in a band of five Pirates.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches

What it says on the tin; stand in a group of 5 players and all play a musical instrument at the same time.

But, the bit that makes this harder is 5 players, and there's a max of 4 on your ship. So you need to be lucky with a friendly crew at an outpost, or in an alliance with one. Chat/voice comms to request everyone goes to the tavern for the achievement definitely helps.

You have to reach level 50 to get this. It would be a Grind type achievement except that you need this anyway for Become Pirate Legend

You performed the Pirate Salute gesture to befriend someone in-game.

Objective Optional Multi-player No glitches
Do the 'make friends' emote from the wheel at the same time as another player does it to you. It may be helpful to try for this at the same time as I'll Drink To That - although they don't have to be from another crew for this one. It doesn't matter whether you are already xbox friends with the other person or not. (you must add them as a friend not a favorite)

(Adventure) You upgraded a Trading Company item to its maximum.

Grind Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

Another painful grind; you can do this for any of the items that the trading companies sell you (each one has two items you can buy). the max level upgrade only becomes available when you're at rank 45 with the trading company, and it will cost a total of 15,000 gold to buy through the upgrades.

You've opened the greatest Treasure Vaults, the occasional deaths were not your fault.

Unknown kind Missability unknown Unknown No glitches

Do-all-the-things Optional Single or multi-player No glitches

You have to be a Pirate Legend first, to gain access to the Athena's Fortune voyages.  Then run the "Athenaā€™s Run of Thieves" voyages - these are long (5 chapters!).  Lots of treasure on each run - randomly some of them will be legendary.  You'll probably have to do this voyage a few times to get them all though.
