In the popular subreddit for the game Skull and Bones, users are expressing their frustration over not receiving invitations to access the Helm. One user, trashbanditry, posted about not getting the invitation in the mail after reaching Brigand. They are hesitant to pay for Ubisoft+ and are wondering if it’s a bug or a paywall blocking their access.
Summary
- Helm bounties are shared, which might be causing the issue.
- Finishing the main story may be a requirement to access the Helm.
- Trying missions and completing the Surlocks quest line might unlock access.
Shared Helm Bounties
According to trashbanditry, Helm bounties are shared. They mentioned that their group lead had two bounties, and they will be testing if completing one can fix the problem. This suggests that the issue might be due to how the bounties are distributed within a group.
No Access Despite Ubisoft+
Another user, SirBob115, chimed in to say they are also unable to access the Helm, despite their friend having access and not being a subscriber to Ubisoft+. This indicates that the problem isn’t related to the subscription service and might be a different issue altogether.
Main Story Completion Requirement
Wargazmatron provided their insight, explaining that the Helm might be connected to the main story progression. They mentioned that it’s possible the Helm represents the characters’ setup of their own Sainte-Ann after earning enough reputation. In the beta, it seems that the feature might not be available until the main story is finished.
Trying Missions and Surlocks Quest Line
Codyr5065 reported encountering the same problem and asked for potential fixes or workarounds. In their updates, they mentioned trying a Helm mission with their friend starting it, but still not receiving an invitation. However, after completing the Surlocks quest line, they were finally able to unlock access to the Helm. This suggests that progressing through specific missions or quest lines might be the key to resolving the issue.
In summary, Skull and Bones players are facing frustration as they struggle to access the Helm. The shared nature of Helm bounties, the requirement of completing the main story, and the completion of certain missions or quest lines seem to be factors affecting players’ access to the Helm. It’s clear that this issue is causing confusion and annoyance among the community, and it remains to be seen if the developers will address and resolve this problem.
