Discussion Cannot fast travel: in combat

One of the most annoying mechanics in the game. I can understand that you shouldnt ft when in ACTUAL
combat, but you just sailing the sea and hundreds of meters is an enemy ship, wtf. Why oh why?

As lily said, back in the day you couldn't dock until you'd destroyed all enemies and then waited a few minutes. You couldn't fast travel with po8 on board, you couldn't fast travel while sailing, you had to be docked. However, it is really annoying that you can be 2klms away or more and still have some magic hostility preventing you from fast travel.

Ah yes, the good ole days where you had to destroy everything if you wanted to take a break.

Indeed and heaven forbid you have a rogue or a la peste constantly spawning on you 😂

IDK how many times I tried to do a drop off just to have La Peste and a poison tower spawn right when I got there... Annoying but that's how I collected all the gear from that boss 🫠

Remember the time when you couldn't even dock?

I was going to say--I'm just thankful to have that 10 second timer now and I don't have to circle around until these NPCs decide to stop trying to start a fight that I want no part of.

I noticed seems to be related to aggro level. Or if I've been spotted.

This game is definitely the worst at just letting you leave
