So there I was on the Colossus Flag all alone........
I figured what the hey, I'd board the Colossus and get some good treasure. I forgot that I was on my lv31 pirate with my weapons all around lv13-16. I get on board and all of the NPC's are lv28. Oh, snap!
So, I get out my doll (lv13) and start the chicken run. No good. Can't attune all of them and I've already gone through a tonic without killing any NPC. Toggle through weapons and see grenade lv17. I figured again, what the hey, I'm gonna go to jail anyhow, and pull out the boom booms. I start the backwards fast walk, lobbing when I could and running when I had to. Pretty soon, there is only one NPC left. I take him down and wipe my brow. Two tonics and approximately 10 minutes after boarding, I get........wait for it.......3 cargo crates!!!!!!!  But, it was a valuable experience. Next time I won't board the Colossus alone!

Ok lets look at this backwards. If you died and sink it cost you something like 175 gold to fix right? So in essence you made that
Good work on taking on and mastering the Navy. |

 Takes me about 10 minutes to do it with the Doll, doing two or three at a time (I can attune three). After the first two sets drop though (say 5 total - taking about 6 minutes draining, swarming, poking and the like) - I'll usually switch to sword if theres only three left and try to take them that way (or hurt two really bad - swtch to doll and run again - they fall pretty fast then). The last one is all Bladestorm  Three crates... the other bad surprise you get with Colossus after a hard run :P Glad ya made it off though "Live to fight another day I say!"

You used grenades... as a last resort!? My my, they're my favorite options, even if they blow away half my skull! Anyway, the weapons were a bit low to tackle a 31 anything, excluding something that is just incredibly slow like a Stump.
The Stink Pot has a rather large area: you'll probably end up stunning yourself. Nut if you put the points into the Grenade skill that reduces stun times, that can be over rather quick, making for a next lob that can hit your opponents without hitting you. The flame grenade has a smaller area, but does damage over time, working decently well. Smoke won't hurt you, so that is an option. All in all, they can be some of the best options you have. |

My staff was only lv9 at the time, so that wasn't an option. Until this incident I had not considered grenades a good weapon upon boarding a flag. I may just try it again to see how well I do.
