Isla Tormenta/Raven's Cove Boss - Pass it on!
 

I say it's about time we had a normal recurring boss enemy on either Raven's Cove or Isla Tormenta, and it's a prime time to request this be added.

People have been crying for a boss on these two islands ever since cursed blades made its debut. While Foulberto was nice, the fact that it only gave out throwing knives and not only an increased chance (as the pirates staff claimed it would be) sort of defeats the purpose of having a normal boss on Raven's Cove.

We need a boss for a few reasons:

• Alleviating the unbalanced cursed sword class - There are slightly over 130 famed weapons in existence [that have been documented]. Cursed blades make up only a small amount of the total, and while we have the luxury of normal bosses on all the other islands to help us find other famed items, we do not have this with the aforementioned cursed blades.
• Providing for crews - I went to a loot event hosted by Chalupa of PnC tonight. There were roughly 20 pirates there, most of them between levels 40 and 50. For a crew this large and this skilled, normal enemies do not provide and only a few people are actually able to get loot and/or rep. I was sad to miss the first 3 skull chests at this event because of how fast the enemies went down. This took place at the south grave; even if you argue that the Devious and Mutineer ghosts are too low-leveled, I doubt the outcome would have been much different if we took on the much tougher Thrall Hall, especially as a mastered pirate can OHKO every normal enemy. If you're looking for cursed swords, there is absolutely no way to remedy this without a new boss or limiting crews to 2-6 (and where's the fun in that?).
• Coherency - All islands have bosses except for Isla Tormenta (other than the random crab boss that only has a slight chance of appearing).

I believe this time, NOW, is the best time to ask for the new the boss. When the the Bounty Hunters update came out, we got Tomas Blanco and Jacques le Blanc. Before that, we got Foulberto Smasho when the Cave of Lost Souls came out. And even before that, we got El Patron when Raven's Cove came out.

The ship customization update is now on the horizon, and if POTCo's developers prove consistent, we will see another new boss appear. To that I say: any avid looter who wants to see a new boss on Raven's Cove or Isla Tormenta, who specifically has the ability to drop cursed blades, PLEASE send in your feedback via email form to Pirates Online! And make sure you ask for your suggestion to be forwarded to a developer!

I have high hopes that if there is enough feedback sent to the developers, we will see this addition. They don't know we want it unless we tell them!

If you have any friends who too would like this change, enocurage them to email POTCo as well!
