The big adventure begins...
The
long-sight :
It will allow you to interact with other pirates who are online at the same time as you are.
You will therefore find on this new page all these features :
- The death skull :
Several death skulls exist, each relating to the fights that you will carry out.
A white death skull means that you can attack a pirate, by cliking on it you wil be redirected to the fights page.
It is possible to relaunch fights within your daily authorised fight limit (300 at first).
A black death skull means that the pirate in question does not wish to receive attacks, you will therefore not be able to attack him.
A red death skull means that this pirate has already carried out all his daily fights, it is therefore not possible for you to attack him.
There are also death skulls with the symbols - or +. This means that you do not have the required fight level to face this opponent.
- The dice : The dice will allow you to send out a « Heads or Tails » game to the person of your choice, to see his response and the result of the game, you must go to your pirate’s homepage.
You will be able to see whether you have won or lost the 2 Drakos at stake.
- The envelope : It will allow you to send out a private message to the person and also chat with him.
The
bashing corner :
This page gathers all that is relative to your fights.
You will be able to see two columns :on the left, the attacks that you have received, and on the right, the ones you have sent out.
To retaliate to the attacks you have been sent by other players, you will need to click on the lightning icon, at the top of the column.
You can also accept to retaliate one attack at a time, by clicking on the swords opposite each one.
The same process is used to cancel all your attacks at once or your attacks one by one, by clicking on the red cross icon.
Once a fight is over, you can see two scores, yours and your opponent’s.
The winner’s score is written in
color and your score in
bold.
If you win, you will therefore see a score in color and bold,
like this.
The score you make will depend on several parameters : your weapon, your special objects (rings or other) and your general health (poisoned or not).
Each fight wears out your weapon and each defeat makes you lose life.
Think about constantly keeping an eye on your status bar for your life points and your weapon’s structure points, so as to buy the necessary potions at the chapel or go to the grinder’s.
The
village :
If you have a few Drakos and you wish to do some shopping, come and take a walk in the village !!
You will find :
- the
chapel : this is where all the potions are recorded, amongst which the ‘care potions’.
- the armourer : this is where you will be able to buy your weapon and improve your fighting skills. All the weapons are sorted by fight level.
- the market : various objects are available here, the choice is yours...
- the wharf : here you can find equipment for crews who own a ship
- the jeweller : he can buy your gems from you, found on the treasure map, or make the reknowned magic rings.
- the grinder repairs your worn out weapons and can also buy your weapon from you. The more your weapon is worn out, the lower will be his buying price.
- The big tournament :
This tournament is opened to all and allows you to increase your experience level. There are 8 days for registration and the tournament lasts approximately 9 days in itself.
You will need to spend 20 Drakos to take part in it.
If, unfortunately, there are not enough players for a tournament, the players who have payed will be receive a refund of their 20 Drakos.
- the games room, where you will be able to spend your gems 24/7. The gems required for each game vary every day. You can also play loto, the draw takes place every sunday. The tumbler games are also available (with two types of payment) and many other things.
The maps :
The treasure map
You have 10 moves per day, you can therefore click on the map 10 times, whereever you wish.
At each attempt, either you find a treasure and a window appears, or you come back to the map and a yellow cross appears.
If you find a treasure, the object is immediately placed in your chest, however, if your chest is full, it will not be added, which means you will have to make some room in your chest and then come back to the map to get your treasure, at the same spot.
The number of moves you will be able to make on the map will vary as the game progresses :
- when you manage to get a crew with a ship and over 15 000 xp, you will go from 10 to 18 moves per day
- if you choose the explorer parrot (available from 10 000 xp) you will have 2 extra moves
The most moves you can get on the treasure map will be 20.
The monster map
This map allows you to fight against terrifying creatures so as to win some xp.
The process is identical to that of the treasure map :You can click anywhere on the map, so as to find a monster to fight against.
The higher your fight level is, the more moves you will have on the monster map.
When you stumble upon a monster, a screen appears with you on the left and the monster on the right.
At the bottom your attacks are displayed. By placing your mouse on them, you will be able to see the details.
Just above this are two status bars, your strength (fight level in fact, it influences your life points and attack power directly) and your life points.
THESE LIFE POINTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR REAL LIFE POINTS IN THE GAME.
THEY ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE ONGOING FIGHT.
When you win the fight, a screen appears, displaying the acquired XP and the eventual objects found.
If you are defeated, you lose NO life points.
The
trainings :
From 5 000 xp, you will be able to choose a training.
It will allow you to gain advantages in the game, such as sharpening your weapon for free, or getting healed for free a set number of times.
There are SIX existing trainings.
For each one, you will have FIVE skill levels, depending on your experience.
The more experimented you get, the more significant the advantages will be.
Beware however, once a training has been selected, you will not be able to change your mind until the 1st of the following month, via the link « training », on your pirate’s page.
The
parrots :
As mentionned above, from 10 000 XP you will be able to choose a parrot (via your pirate’s page)
Four birds are available to you, each being helpful in his own way :
Free grinding, gem theft + Drakos, care for free etc...
A parrot must be fed if you do not want him to get weak and die.
If you don’t feed him enough, don’t expect him to help you, same goes if the weather does not suit him...
Having a parrot is also interesting because they make you win XP.
The parrot fights (10 per day) can be a significant XP daily gain, provided you launch the right attacks...
Your
crew :
From 5 000 xp, you can either create your own crew, or join an existing one.
The captain can, at any time, send you a message in which a proposal will be made to you.
You also have a ‘hiring’ forum available ("Forum" link), type or chart containing classified ads to hiring or getting hired.
By clicking on the icon, on the bottom left hand corner, representing your crew, you will have access to THREE tabs : General, Ship and Your adventures.
The first one displays all the possible actions, a summary of your victories/defeats, as well as a list of your team members (those in green are on holidays).
The second one (Ship) displays your ship’s abilities as well as its equipment (the SPECIAL equipment, such as the armoured hull, are only visible during battle).
The last one (
Your adventures) is the most important, and gives your the detail of all the different quests you yet need to.
We will talk about those later on.
You will be able to go out to sea as soon as you own a ship and have at least 2 of you with over 15 000 xp. This will open up a path to new adventures.
At 5 000 xp you will only be able to watch the battles at sea, if the crew has a ship and at least two people within your crew have at least 15000 xp.
You will have several choices :
Team creation : You will select a logo and a name for your crew.
Once this is done, your team is created and you are its captain.
You will then be given the choice to hire pirates (15 at most), to change logos and to chat with your crew, via an internal chatroom.
Once you are captain of your team, the other pirates will see a star opposite your name, which means you are the current captain.
However, as captain, you will see a star opposite the names of each of your pirates.
The captain can decide to buy a ship, if he has over 15 000 XP. Then, every 20 victories he will be given the opportunity to move on to a better ship, by paying only the difference in price between the old one and the new one.
The ship allows you to fight at sea against other crews (Only if you there are two pirates in your crew with over 15 000 xp).
A new map will appear (link: go out to sea) on the crew’s screen. The aim is to own as many territories as possible, and achieve as many victories as possible, by clicking on the vacant spots or by fighting against the red dots, which are in fact other teams.
The orange dots represent the teams that are already busy or that do not have any remaining moves left.
The yellow dots represent the crews of which at least one pirate is currently online.
Upon going out to sea, you will see at the very first an empty map. You wil need to click on a spot, randomly, and that is where you ship will be positioned (symbolised by a red and white dot). You can exchange your coordinates with other teams, this makes battling easier.
Then, each time you will click on the map, you will either stumble upon a ship, or upon your own territory, or upon a vacant territory...
Every day, a set number of territories is withdrawn from the map, at random.
If you stumble upon an opponent’s ship, a screen shows up, each member of the teams that are ready to battle can click on ‘participate’ to take part in the battle.
Each crew member can also register all the pirates of his team for the battle at sea.
When at least 2 pirates are ready, they can click on «Team ready ».
At that point in time in the game, the attacking team can still cancel the battle.
Once everyone is ready to bash each other up with canonballs, the battle can begin.
Each ship’s structure is represented by this icon, as well as the special equipment it has set up.
You are playing by taking turns, each time with the possibility to carry out several actions, some directly depending on what your team has decided to buy at the market for its ship (explosive bombs, repair kits or other).
THE FIRST ATTACK IS RANDOM, SO AS TO REPRESENT THE LACK OF ACCURACY OF THE ATTACKING SHIP AGAINST AN UNKNOWN ENEMY (this is also to avoid disadvantageing at each strike those who get attacked and hence lose a turn).
You can also decide to attempt ransacking a part of the opponent’s treasure during the battle, but the money collected will only be counted if you WIN the battle.
All the attacks are available via this menu :
When one of the teams has defeated the other, the battles at sea map is replaced by the territory map, and you will be able to see the battle’s report by clicking on DETAILS. The earnings achieved during the battle are explained here (money won, (depending on the variety and amount of attacks used, all the mathematical details are in the FAQ ), experience ( from 50 to 120 if there are at least 10 f you, and from 80 to 120 beyond)).
It is also important to know that each team has 6 minutes to play its turn, or else the opponent takes its turn. After 4 absences, the team loses for repeated absence.
Similarly, if a fight request is sent out but remains unanswered for a whole day, the fight will be cancelled. (If one of the 2 teams is ready after this 1 day break, the team that is NOT READY will lose a victory).
The victories at sea are important because they will allow you to unblock new adventures.
Yours adventures :
You will have to do your best to unblock these quests, for instance by achieving victories at sea, on the refuge, with your league, etc...
1 -
the Blue Bay : you will need to defeat the vile Matiax in his domain and be faster than him to win fabulous Bonus Cards, with their various effects.
Beware however, the map leading to the Blue Bay is not free of charge...
2 – your Refuge : a new step for your crew.
You will have to walk through the refuge map in its entirety, set up your camps, collect amazing treasures, and have access to refuge battles.
You will find the explanation on the refuge homepage.
3 - the League : after a set number of victories on the Refuge island, you will need to make a league, gathering of THREE crews, ready to do anything for victory.
The Cursed island map will open its doors to you. You will have to relieve it from its Sacred Jewels by collecting as many clues as possible before the others.
Fantastic battles await you if you fall face to face with one of the other contesting leagues...
Once the jewels collected, you will be able to exchange them against quest Objects, which will be very useful later on.
4 – The Sea Gods : to join the crews hall of fame, you will need to prove your bravery by facing the terrifying Sea Gods.
To defeat them, only one method : buy the adequate equipment at the wharf...
5 – The Finaly Battle against the Deamon : Legendary power of the Oceans, the Marine Deamon has, it seems, always existed.
Dare to face him defeat him, and the name of your league will forever remain carved in history...
