Random ship questions.....

[Dolphinaia]

1) The other night I saw a ship, sitting off the coast of PDF, sinking ships and taking on Storm Reapers etc.... The ship got hit over and over until there almost nothing left but it never sunk! Did that person you some kind of illeagl code of immortality?

2) Today I saw another ship sailing around and it was lowing with a white light around it. Why?

3) I saw a "Black Harbinger" skeleton ship yesterday. Are those new?

Thanks!!!

As for 1 - donno - maybe just got lucky Padres Ducks can doc right away and be almost dead so it doesnt matter if they take a lot of damage

My guess on 2 is Lighting being used by someone on that ship - sometimes when my crew fire lighting the flash actually is around my ship (no damage though to us).

There was an update today and I didn't sail - so 3 could be part of the update...

Answered above nicely

2) Today I saw another ship sailing around and it was lowing with a white light around it. Why?

I'm assuming this was a spiky sort of light? If so, it's the leadership skill that you receive for completing "Chapter I: Retrieve the Black Pearl"

3) I saw a "Black Harbinger" skeleton ship yesterday. Are those new?

Nope, been around all the time, but there's only 1-2 on the entire ocean, usually between outcast and tormenta. ^^

jack they are between padres and outcast @_@ not tormenta geeze get you ships stright

[Dolphinaia]

Thanks for the answers!

The Harbinger was hanging around off the starboard side of my ship as I sat at PDF. There were also Dreadnaughts and Collosus there yesterday. Never saw them there before.

Hmmm, I have the leadership skill, I guess I thought it was more temporary, They were lit for a really long time.

[Chris]

EDIT: i stand corrected -_-

[Jack I]

Just to broaden my answer, between Padres and Tormenta. The Harbinger spawns around the swarm of boats near the Tormenta/Cuba area.

Oh, and you're welcome for the help.


As to being lit a long time, there is a bug that happens if you change to a cannon while you're ship captain. It causes it to stay that way until you dock or use it again, but you can't add skill points Chris. ^^

Thanks!!!

Did that ship just 'happen' to be a Frigate? Not the war variety, just a plain ol frigate?

Because I sat and watched a Frigate go from PDF to Kingshead taking full broadside furies, flamebrand broadsides and cannon broadsides as he sailed right through the big knot of ships that sit in that area. There were at 'least' 4 ships hitting him at the same time as he sailed right through the middle of them, not counting the shots he took before reaching that cluster.

He didnt sink.

No, it was actually a War Frigate, I think. It was called Victory Dancer and the Capt. was Jolo...from what I remember.

I have had the game glitch on me and my crew when I 'anchor' the boat just as someone attempts to teleport to me. I end up off the ship with the whole crew, and having been paid for our plundering, meanwhile, the teleporting person remains on the ship!

When I teleport back to this person, my ship in the few times this has happened, became invincible.

It is not something I have been able to repeat at will.

well thats cool but yes some bugs are by pure luck i guess

[Silver Beard]

Yea, I've done that before. You just sit next to Padres and just take some pot-shots at a coupl ships, sink em' all, and if you get a lot of damage, just take the wheel and dock.

[Angel]

LOL, I dont think it works like that for invincibility. Thats called smart sailing hehe
