Commendations & Titles

Earn Commendations and unlock unique Titles in Sea of Thieves. Track your progress and display your accomplishments across all pirate activities.

Mastering Commendations & Titles

In Sea of Thieves, Commendations serve as in-game achievements that track your progress and accomplishments across various activities. Earning these commendations not only provides a sense of progression but also unlocks valuable Titles that you can proudly display, showcasing your expertise and dedication to the pirate life.

Understanding Commendations

Commendations are categorized by Trading Company, Tall Tale, world event, or specific gameplay mechanic. They range from simple tasks, like selling a certain number of items, to complex challenges, such as defeating specific bosses or completing difficult voyages.

• Trading Company Commendations: Progressing with the Gold Hoarders, Order of Souls, Merchant Alliance, Reaper's Bones, and Athena's Fortune Trading Companies unlocks commendations related to their specific activities.
• Tall Tale Commendations: Each Tall Tale has a set of commendations that reward players for completing its objectives, finding secrets, or achieving specific feats within the tale.
• World Event Commendations: These track your success in tackling world events like Skeleton Forts, Skeleton Fleets, and Ashen Lords.
• Gameplay Mechanic Commendations: Commendations exist for various gameplay aspects, such as fishing, ship combat, and even specific weapon usage.

Unlocking Titles

Many commendations, particularly those at higher tiers or related to significant achievements, unlock unique Titles. These titles appear above your pirate's head in-game and on your ship's banner, allowing you to personalize your pirate's identity and broadcast your accomplishments to other players.

• Examples of Titles: Titles can range from 'Salty Dog' (for general sailing experience) to 'Master of the Seas' (for extensive ship combat) or 'Legendary Storyteller' (for completing specific Tall Tales).
• Equipping Titles: Titles are equipped via the Pirate's Appearance Pouch or your ship's Chest, allowing you to choose which title is displayed.

Key Commendations and Titles to Pursue

• Pirate Legend Commendations: Reaching Pirate Legend status itself unlocks a suite of commendations and titles related to legendary activities.
• Tall Tale Master Commendations: Completing all commendations for a specific Tall Tale often grants a unique title associated with that tale.
• Trading Company Mastery: Reaching Level 50 in a Trading Company unlocks commendations that lead to prestigious titles related to that company's expertise.
• Fortune's Favour & Reaper's Riches: Commendations tied to seasonal events like the Chest of Fortune and Reaper's Chests can unlock Fates of Fortune themed cosmetics and titles.

Tips for Commendation Hunting

• Check Your Progress Regularly: Visit the Commendations menu to see what you've achieved and what's left to do.
• Focus on Specific Goals: Instead of trying to do everything at once, focus on completing commendations for a particular Trading Company or Tall Tale.
• Utilize Alliances: Alliances can make tackling challenging world events for commendations much easier.

Commendations and Titles add a significant layer of long-term goals and personalization to Sea of Thieves, rewarding players for their dedication and diverse skills.
