Black Pearl Boss Battle

After you do all of the first story chapter: The Black Pearl, you must then complete a Boss Battle. It starts of with two navy soldiers getting destracted and your pirate gets to sneak on the Pearl. http://www.kithicor.org/gallery2/albums/userpics/normal_pearl1.jpg

Stage One
Before you can captain the Pearl, You must get rid of the Lvl 28-32 Navy Officers guarding it. There are about 8 to 10 of them. Staffs well work quiet well here. You may have to use some tonics.After all guards are gone, take up the helm.

Stage Two
When you sail towards the gate 4 Navy Light Frigates will grapple you. You will not be able to use your broadsides in this stage so it it all up to your cannon skills. They are not hard to sink but the can so a lot of damage if your not careful. After all of those are done you must take the helm again.

Stage Three
Now you must fight your way out of the island.1st get your crew to shoot the forts to sink the bridges. then destroy the navy forts along your path(note you do not have  to destroy the non-drawbridge forts but its advisable for you to do so as they keep firing at you) then there is one last set of drawbridges to sink. Once thats done you need to get your crew to the left side of the ship before sailing out of the island.

Final Stage
One you get out of the island you will see the Goliath coming from behind the rocks. You should first fire a brodside,then go to the front of the ship to limit the amount of cannon could hit you. after that is sunk you have successfully Retaken the Black Pearl congrats!

Other Tips
On a side note, you should take some stronger players with you.You should be prepared to try this several times as it is not an easy battle and not one you can do alone. I tried it several times with 4 people and we died before we even set out to sink the 4 ships. The last time I tried it I had a crew of 12 people and we barely made it out of there alive.The higher the gunners, the better.

Of that full crew at least one level 30 with staff and some with strong voodoo to keep that person healed so they can attack the level 32 Navy on that boat. Also stay out of the way and dont let them swarm you. Take tonics for youself while you are in the first part of the battle.

The 4 boats are very bountiful for treasure chests and even with a crew of 12 we each got about 300 gold.. several of us even leveled up.

When you go after the drawbridges, turn your boat sideways so your crew can get better aim. Also stay back as far as you can to hit them so they dont hit you. Dont start shooting long before you go into an area that just seems to make them shoot you harder.

When you go to do Goliath, make sure to have ALL your available gunners on the left side so they can all start laying into it when it appears...

Good luck and happy sailing.
