I start the fight with 3 ships, usually at least one liner and 2 military frigates or corvettes. If you really want to destroy them, you can still destroy them after the neutering process. So there's a neutering process and a capturing process. Since you're prepping the enemy ships for capture, you neuter them, once neutered, they can't hurt you, so you win. But more importantly, I take less damage too.Ĭapturing instead of destroying is easier. I have to pay for repairs and I become poorer as a result. Then when they're sitting ducks, you kill off their sailors with grape shot (cannister shot in this game) and then you capture them.Īs a pirate game veteran, I don't destroy ships, I capture as many of them as possible. Using one ship, I snared the enemy ships by destroying their sails with chain balls. I found out I need to have a bigger convoy to carry additional special cannonballs. I barely won my first fight using just one ship.
I didn't start fighting until the pirates showed up. Maybe this was fixed in the patches that have been released over these 7 months but combat is relatively easy to me. I see a lot of 7 month old posts on this subreddit about the combat being impossible. You don't have to wait a long time to kill all sailors, just have less of them on their side. Use 3 ships, swap them all to chain, then once enemy sails are gone, use grap and capture. TL DR: start with chain balls, then move to grapeshot (cannister shot) and capture instead of destroy. I'm explaining a more beginner-style usually works 99% of the time method that requires you to repair after a few fights.) (Caveat: some people prefer to run with one ship only and do very long battles. So here's all my knowledge from about 4-5 days of playing PR3, steam version, with harbour master DLC. I played the Port Royale and patrician series before but I got my start in these pirate/trading games with Corsairs and the X series (space sim stuff) I need to keep my mind busy so I figured I'd get an offline game. About a week ago, I found out that my internet would be gone for a week.
