The Skeleton Curse Grind Is Unplayable for Low-Skill PvP Players
A while back, I got back into Sea of Thieves with the goal of getting the Skeleton Curse. I'm mediocre to bad at PvP, but I figured it would be fine. When the Hourglass of Fate came out, I was matched against players roughly at my level.
Now, though, it's unplayable. I only run into level 100+ players, I get completely destroyed, I win maybe 1 fight out of 10, and I'm not progressing at all. And I'm not having fun.
Rare really needs to do something about this. Grinding the Skeleton Curse as a PvP beginner is torture — I've started thinking that losing on purpose over and over would honestly be faster.
At the very least, if a player at your skill level can't be matched, maybe throw them into a PvE encounter instead. I don't know, but as it stands right now, it's just unplayable.
