3. Maintain Situational Awareness
Multi-Enemy Engagements: When facing multiple foes, keep track of all their positions and movements. Use the camera and minimap effectively to avoid being surrounded or Skull and Bones Items flanked.

Environmental Awareness: Factor in weather, waves, and obstacles—enemy ships may try to use these to their advantage, such as cornering you near reefs or using storms as cover.

Distance Monitoring: Always know how far enemies are from your ship. Close range demands quick reactions; long range gives more time but requires patience and positioning.

4. Use Surveillance Tools
Spyglass/Scopes: If available, use long-range vision tools to scout enemy ships from afar, giving you more time to plan.

Audio Cues: Listen for cannon fire, boarding shouts, or Skull and bones items for sale cheap damage sounds—these can alert you to attacks even when visibility is poor.

Communication: If playing with a crew, establish callouts for enemy positions and movements. Clear communication enhances response time.
