Phantom Cannonball
The Phantom Cannonball is a type of Cursed Cannonball Item in Sea of Thieves. The Phantom Cannonball are functionally identical to regular Cannonballs, differing only in appearance when fired. Phantomballs glow akin to Green Cursed Cannonballs and shoot ghostly phantoms from Cannons.
Where to Find
Currently, Phantom Cannonballs can only be acquired from inside a Cannonball Crate of the Damned. A single Cannonball Crate of the Damned is dropped by the Burning Blade.
Usage
Phantom Cannonballs are functionally identical to regular Cannonballs in damage, range and arc; the difference between the two projectiles is purely audio-visual. However, they cause the Cannon's barrel to emit green smoke akin to certain Cursed Cannonballs when loaded, which may fool enemy crews into believing the Cannon is loaded with a much more dangerous projectile.
