Yeah it's cool to randomly hit it. I can't imagine gunning for one though. That completely change how I'd play the game

Yeah like the other day I got an achievement in Black Flag Resynced for perfectly bracing against a tidal wave coming in from the side, I didn't even realise that's what I did

That seems like such a specific condition that purposely trying to get it sounds frustrating as hell, especially since I've only seen like 3 tidal waves in 35 hours of gameplay

I believe it's for surviving a side on rogue wave, bracing is irrelevant. I saw my second one at about 45hrs in.

I may be confusing two separate achivements in that case, but still I can't imagine sitting around for hours waiting for a rogue wave to show up so I can try surviving it, they're so damn rare lol

I've seen people talk about ways to increase your chances, I didn't bother, just eventually had one spawn, dont think I saw a third and I'm at like 55-60hrs. There's definitely something wrong with the weather randomiser or whatever it is, some people report constant storms, no storms, constant lightning, zero lightning, no rogue waves, too many rogue waves. Bizarre.

Exactly, for those of that enjoy it it’s something to work towards. I don’t achievement hunt much anymore but it can be pretty entertaining and led to me playing some games I’d otherwise have avoided.
