In other, less "yummy" news, or perhaps yummier news, just added a little news thing-y to the front page. It says a newsletter shall be coming out, but, it won't be out until later tonight.

[seaturtledude]

[WWEDUDE]

Cool dude ;)

Thank you sea.

I added the newsletter link to all the pages. Newsletter will be up tonight.

Well I haven't been on Pirates much, after all sea is my in-game rep, but I logged on for a few minutes and crashed the entire game. So Pirates is offline for a the next 45 minutes :confused3

[seaturtledude]

LOL, Dude broke PotCo :rotfl:. Anyways, I'm logging in now. I'll be back at 9:30 too.

[WWEDUDE]

I was planning on logging on, but my stupid thing won't launch. So I guess I am going to work on another new feature I have had planned.

I know, another new feature, what can I say, I like to code.

[seaturtledude]

CODER!!!! :rotfl: Anyways, I'm logging on in a bit for Blackjack Friday pirate:

[WWEDUDE]

[WWEDUDE]

Wow, sick layout, dude! pirate:

Thank ye :)

The top choice by noon est today shall be chosen. So the site might be down from noon-1pm est, depending on if Pirates is chosen.


Dude pirate:


NOTE: As the poll is 3 to 0 I figure why not do it now, so the site is closed until noon est.

[WWEDUDE]

The site's new layout is done:

There is more than 3 places for the trivia answer, doesn't effect question though, I will update that.


Edit2: Poll's up, error on trivia page is fixed, and all emails (should) have been sent to those who entered in the trivia contest. Starting now all emails replying to contact us messages will have the question/your dis name/and any other fields you fill out.

I don't need to know all the answers until I check them.

Dissed. (Anyone? Anyone?)


:p


Oh and Sea, for that comment you are demoted, what's worse then being my assistant... hmm, I will get back to you ;)

[ShadowKittyKat]

I put Shadow Cat in the guild because of some problems with my old guild. I might not stay long because I kinda prefer guildlessness (is that a word?) but I'll try to stick around. XD

Hehe, well in that case I better remove your trivia entry from the "Wrong" folder... ;)

The top choice for the "Like the new layout?" is "We have a new layout??", now to find out if the site is really that un-popular, or a demoted officer is playing smart with me :p ;)

Logging on in like 30 minutes.

[WWEDUDE]

Bump. Pleased to announce I am working on a new contest. (http://i26.tinypic.com/30bprh4.png)

More details in the next newsletter. I will release it hopefully very soon, and more clues will be added. It will be on-site. You must find clues around the site, and we will have a new map, with locations that might hide some clues.


EDIT: I decided to let the first task out as a preview. You can click the link in the upper-right corner to try your luck. And here is a hint: Your looking for a piece of map, and on the map you must find where the chest is, that Captain Smalty dropped. Who knows what will be in this chest, treasure, Captain's Journal, hmm...
http://i27.tinypic.com/2ik340j.png

[seaturtledude]

Hmm, very cool, dude!

[WWEDUDE]

Hey guys,
The trivia will end today, in a few minutes. This is because of the Treasure Hunt. In order to move on with new tasks I must re-start trivia. Gooood Luck to all entries!

[seaturtledude]

I hopez I win.

[WWEDUDE]

Ok, new trivia question is up. The second part of the Treasure Hunt will be out in a few minutes. Good luck, unless of course you are sea, then you have been spending the past 22 hours looking for that piece of the map.

Here is a hint to the location of the map piece:
help run the guild. There are many different types

Get Your Exclusive Mother's Day Tattoos
Happy Mother's Day! It's time to celebrate Mother's Day ... pirate style! This Saturday and Sunday, all Unlimited Access Members should make their way over to the tattoo parlor for exclusive "I Love Mom" tattoos. Be sure to get all the Mother's Day ink you can handle before midnight (PDT) on May 12. http://a.disney.go.com/pirates/online/v3/global/images/news/news_items%5C80x80_tattoo_mom.jpg

Game Updates... What's New In The Carribbean?
http://a.disney.go.com/pirates/online/v3/global/images/news/news_items%5Cpotc_gennote2b.jpgAs Pirates, by nature, are a bit vocal, the team here has pulled together a huge collection of player feedback. In addition to the team's own thoughts, they have collected a bunch of your suggestions while scouring fan sites, feedback received from player surveys (you may have gotten one recently), and all the e-mails and comments that come in directly. All of this feedback is continually being pulled together and sets the direction for the game's future updates and enhancements.

Here are some recent enhancements that have hit the Caribbean based on your feedback:


* Unlimited Access Members now have access to an entirely new level of weapons, as well as a bunch of new quests to go along with them! You can also get your hands on brand-new ammo pouches, which allow you to carry more bullets, cannonballs, daggers, and grenades than before.


# Basic Access players will have an opportunity to see more of the game - you will now have access to the Voodoo Doll and Light Galleon Ship.

But wait ... it gets even better ... we're also hard at work expanding the entire Caribbean for everyone. Stay tuned - there are more details to come!

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

Hey dude, how do I get a voodoo doll?

[WWEDUDE]

Hey dude, how do I get a voodoo doll?

Quest from Tia. I believe it's random, I think I got it doing "The List".

WOOT!

I am staying in the Beach Club too! In july..

[seaturtledude]

Awesome! I'm really considering going online tonight for a few minutes while I download some TV shows on iTunes for the plane ride down... maybe ;)

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

I haven't seen any flagships anywhere! Did they take them out?

[WWEDUDE]

I don't know what the deal is with flag ships. I haven't seen any of them. But I just got level 13, and about 8 points away from level 8 on sailing.

As of Today, we have 28 members.

[LittleMermaidsMom]

The no flag ship glitch happens sometimes.... what usually helps is to switch to a quiet server and you should be able to find some then.

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

I hate how all of the minor quests are available to unlimited only!

[WWEDUDE]

Just a friendly reminder that it's almost time for our very first POTCO event to be held this Friday night.

I would like to extend the invitation to any DIS'er that would like to join us. Anyone is welcome to climb aboard and rock the high seas with us! The more the merrier! :woohoo:

Here's what I had posted on our website...

Friday Flag Frenzy!

A new and improved version of our beloved Capture the Flag game (sniff sniff)...

Join your LAVA guild members this Friday night for a swashbuckling & booty plundering party unlike anything on VMK. Let's see how many Flagships we can sink and then board in one frenzy of a night!!

Hours of event will be held from 8:00 pm - 11:00 pm EST

Pink asked if it was ok if she invited some of our members. I think it would be a fun chance to meet some of the "Too Lava For Roos" guild members. It will go up under the events section (which will be back on the homepage) shortly.

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

Too bad there are no flagships :sad:

[WWEDUDE]

Too bad there are no flagships :sad:

That might be a bug, I am going to contact Player Support now.

[threeboysmom]

Too bad there are no flagships :sad:

Hmmm... I just saw one tonight. Steered clear of it though since I was alone out there :teeth:

[threeboysmom]

They know we're coming for them.... heh ;)

[WWEDUDE]

I talked to a support person about it, but apparently I forgot about them when I went to go start dinner. :lmao:

When I got back I clicked on it, it said chat was termaited because it was answered, I will post the conversation once I get the email.

Also TED members, new feature coming to front page, check it out here:
http://theelitedis.awardspace.com/Test198020.html
(that is a temp page, it will be deleted once the feature moves to the homepage)

EDIT:
NATHANIEL:One moment please.
NICK: Ok.
NATHANIEL:Would it be okay if I login with your pirates and try to recreate this issue?
NATHANIEL:Are you still with me?
NATHANIEL:It appears that you are no longer active in this chat session. If you would like further assistance, Live Chat is available from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Pacific time, Monday through Friday, as well as from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Pacific time, Saturday and Sunday.

[WWEDUDE]

That neat news thing-y will be up sometime tonight hopefully.
Also my huge project that I set for end of May, will be pushed back. It is a huge update and I feel it won't be needed soon.

I also have two small new features that I want to work into the site, hopefully in a few weeks.

[threeboysmom]

Pink asked if it was ok if she invited some of our members. I think it would be a fun chance to meet some of the "Too Lava For Roos" guild members. It will go up under the events section (which will be back on the homepage) shortly.

Unfortunately, Dude, I was WRONG! It's not THIS Friday night, it's NEXT Friday night - May 23rd.

Wow, not only do I mess up our own Guild website, but I'm messing up your website now too! :rotfl2: Do I get an award for that or something? ;)

[seaturtledude]

I'm back! :pirate: I plan on logging in later tonight.

[WWEDUDE]

Welcome back Sea :)


Also, has anyone entered the trivia contest? I assumed some people did, but I guess contact us isn't working properly. I am running the trivia another week, PLEASE, ENTER AGAIN TO TRIVIA!

That will be posted on the site later on. :)

[seaturtledude]

Glad to be back, still haven't had a chance to get online, been busy listening to the new Death Cab for Cutie album, cleaning pool, and watching the Celtics, I'll try to make an effort to be online more often this week, no promises though, I have a lot on my plate.

[seaturtledude]

Bump!

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

bump before it dies

anyone want to plunder?

[seaturtledude]

Mmm, maybe later.

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

Later meaning after 8 eastern? :goodvibes

[WWEDUDE]

PRESENTING.... The Big Update, Part I

Ok, so it's not really a update. But it's a update on the update. :O

I have an Dude's Den typed, but that won't be on the site until later in the week, so here a some info on the big update.

This update will allow us to communicate between each other easier. We will also be bringing VMK magic back. We will do this with this new update. Inside this update (only a small part of it) you will be able to own pins, and over time more items. You can trade them, win them, and find them. You can own magic pins to do various things over the site. We will be bring our interactive off-pirates to a entire new level. We will have the power to have theme months, pin sets, and so much more! Even though Pirates is our game, we still are part of VMK, so we MAY still have VMK themes, or theme. I will be looking for feedback on this. I have used this code on another project of mine relating to VMK, so I may use the many pin designs from that, or create new pins. Also a money feature, more on that soon. Here are some possible pins:
http://i30.tinypic.com/10pbtp0.gif
Part of my other project's Thrill Set (there is all the rides).
http://i28.tinypic.com/24bkihh.jpg
Part of my other project's Stitch TCG Set (there is all the TCG stitch items).

ALSO: Here (http://i25.tinypic.com/314wj9f.png) is a picture of the feature. We may use this display, or not. It won't be the same color, and it may be different, who knows, that is from my old project.

Post your thoughts.

Dude

EDIT: Here is a example magic pin:
http://i25.tinypic.com/w0hv1v.gif

[Sir_Quikslvr]

Awesomeness!!

[seaturtledude]

Whoah, awesome idea, dude.

[SnowyJingleBells]

Awesome :thumbsup2

[WWEDUDE]

Glad you guys like it! The pin idea will only be a small fraction of the entire seat. Other features in this include a money system, whichI did mention shortly. Still trying to think of the currency, TheEliteDisBucks? EliteBucks? Any ideas on currency send to contact us. Otherfeatures on the big feature will include Pirates Guide, Arcade, Additional Ranks besides officer. PLEASE run to contact us and click suggestion, say in body what pin set you think would be good.

Example: (feel free to submit any of these)
Animals of the Caribbean
Tattoos of the Caribbean
VMK Memories
Pirates of the Caribbean Movies

ETC!


Dude

[threeboysmom]

Just a reminder, oh Elite Dis Guild, that you are all welcome to join us for our Friday Flag Frenzy this Friday evening at 8 pm EST (5/23).

Let's get out there and rock the high seas together! :dance3:

[WWEDUDE]

After some great suggestions I have planned a bit more.

Our "project" will have a EliteBucks store, where you can spend your EliteBucks. Inside the store there will be a few different "tabs". There will be two main stores for now, but a possible third. The two will be VMK Themed and Pirates Themed. After all, we all played VMK! The VMK pins will be taken from my past project, here are a few possible pins I may use:
http://i32.tinypic.com/atkfep.gif
http://i32.tinypic.com/2wolwsp.jpg
There will be weekend pins, event pins, and holiday pins. Some pins can even be won from Minigames.


This is not a new site, game, or any sort of replacement for VMK. This is a place where members can communicate and have fun.

[Sir_Quikslvr]

Hey guys, just wanted to remind you guys VMK is giving to all their players free 30 day unlimited access to PotcO. If interested email them at vmk@disneyonline.com

[WWEDUDE]

First off thanks Sir for EliteBucks idea, along with many possible pin sets. I would show you a preview of EliteBucks system and the store but this computer doesn't have Papyrus Font, which is the main font used in the project. Most computers dohave this font from my understanding. You will still be able to use the project without the font, but won't look as good. ALSO: The project is set to be opened June 1st. A week ahead you can pre-register for a username for this project. Tomorrow a Q&A will be out with info on what this new project is.
Or of course we could play hangman:


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[seaturtledude]

A?

[Sir_Quikslvr]

I would like to buy a vowel

[seaturtledude]

:rotfl:

[WWEDUDE]

A?

I would like to buy a vowel

Nope, no a. Vowels are 250 credits, wait...


I suggest you click here (http://i29.tinypic.com/b9iwas.png) for a preview.

[WWEDUDE]

Ok, time what you all have been watching for. The new project is a forum. Before you start throwing your cannon balls at me please read this Q&A.

Why is The Elite Dis creating a forum?
The Elite Dis is all about bringing the members together on PotCO and off it. To make it easier to communicate and get new members I think it would be great to add a forum onto the site.

Is this a replacement to Dis?
Of course not! This will be a Pirates of the Caribbean Forum, we all got together with the bond of VMK and the DisBoards. I don't want this to change, because it's who we are. We are talking now in a subforum within the subforum of a huge community. This is a VMK forum, and I don't know what it will become. I think as we look into our pirate future we should have a pirate forum. But the name, website, and this post will remain un-changed. We are Dis'sers forever.

But if the forum is staying, why are you making a forum?
Like I said it will be easier to communicate. For example, let's say you want to find someone to pillage, you can now post that in a new forum, and anyone who wants to find a crew can look in that forum.

I thought this had to do with pins, money, and VMK memories?
Oh it does! Every time you post you get 1 EliteBuck, which you can spend in our store to buy pins, which will display in your profile. We do have many plans to bring VMK into the forum.

Who is running this forum?
Well I created this forum, so I would be a "head admin", I am looking into how I want to look for moderators. It wont be limited to officers, but officers will get a special pin in their profile if they choose to join.

Do I have to join to be a part of the guild?
Of course not. This is a side to The Elite Dis, and it is made to make your life easier and entertained. Certain contests will require you to join the guild though.

When will the forum open?
I have no idea. But you can still register now, if you look at the bottom of Contact Us Page there will be a new form to register, you will get a temp. password like:
kjsK103
Once you log in for the first time you can change the password.

Can I design a pin set?
Send a preview pin to contact us and we will talk :)

[seaturtledude]

Awesome, I've been registered ;).

[WWEDUDE]

Awesome, I've been registered ;).

Sea, why would you write something like that about yourself in the shoutbox..?

[seaturtledude]

Wow, you outsmarted me!

[WWEDUDE]

Wow, you outsmarted me!

:rotfl2:

[Sir_Quikslvr]

woot woot!! I registered!

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

Dude, would you like me to make you a not stretched out avatar? I still have the un-flattened out file for Photoshop

[WWEDUDE]

Dude, would you like me to make you a not stretched out avatar? I still have the un-flattened out file for Photoshop

Nah, that's fine. I won't be using that set most likely anyway. Also peeps, in your confirmation email after you register you will get to see the perks you get by registering early! I suggest you register quickly.

[Sir_Quikslvr]

I didn't get a confirmation email. Maybe later?

[WWEDUDE]

I didn't get a confirmation email. Maybe later?

I sent it out, check again, if not I will PM it to you :)

Did someone say monthly theme?
http://i25.tinypic.com/f9h107.png

[Sir_Quikslvr]

Woot Monthly Theme! :woohoo:

EDIT: Thanks Dude! :)

[WWEDUDE]

Interesting Forum:
Dude didn't break it!
Found a strange bug? Post it here!

:p

The forum is SO close to being done, I am actually wondering around looking for things to be done, it might be open tomorrow :goodvibes :goodvibes

[WWEDUDE]

ANNOUNCING: The forum is open!

[WWEDUDE]

Wooooooot

EDIT: What's visualizer.exe?

I am guessing a bug, where did you see this?

[Sir_Quikslvr]

It's a pop-up telling me to install it.
The choices below were: Install Save Cancel. I hit cancel but it kept coming up.

But! Awesome Forum! I already got me my first EliteBuck =D

(I'll post the picture of it on "Dude didn't break it")

[WWEDUDE]

Actually it's your 201st ;)

Umm, I don't think that has anything to do with me. No clue :confused3

[WWEDUDE]

Because of reasons outside my control the forum is down. I have no information when it will be back up, sorry.

But soon you will find a new contest, unlike anything we ever did before. It WON'T be Pirates related, but I can tell you it will be fun!

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

I joined the site and I am pretty sure I am in your Guild. Anyway, I did not get my name accepted yet.


One question, I got 14 days free from Shadow.Cat, what happens after those days expire and I have not signed up for my VMK 30 days free?

[seaturtledude]

Your title becomes gray, you lose access to dagger,grenade,voodoo staff, and any ship above light galleon.

[WWEDUDE]

Hey guys,
I was requested to post a list of Dis'sers who play Pirates, so we all can still contact each other. The problem was I didn't keep a running list very well, or I didn't know your VMK name, etc.

Please: Check this post (http://disboards.com/showpost.php?p=25297780&postcount=2) and tell me if you are missing, tell me the correct info if it is wrong, tell me the info if it has a ? and if your name has a (?) by it please tell me if the info in front of it is correct.

Thank you,
Dude

When they send bucks to the bank I get a message, it is possible to buy two of each, in fact quite smart for trading reasons in the future. I will process your request in a second, I want to re-do the pins, the bottoms got all cut off and it has been annoying me @_@

[WWEDUDE]

I have a question, how are we going to get more then 20 people on there? Especially if its only for this guild?

Well, I think by expanding what our guild can do, we can expand our members. At this time we still have a very active forum, and when players are choosing a guild, they will see that and hopefully more people will come to the guild (no, I am not talking about the Dis Community only.) over time we will grow, for example, a lot of people on other Pirates Forums are looking for guilds. So I am confident it will grow, and we do have quite a few people in the guild. I don't remember the exact count, but I thought it was close to 50, could be wrong, anyone want to count? ;)


Why is The Elite Dis creating a forum?
The Elite Dis is all about bringing the members together on PotCO and off it. To make it easier to communicate and get new members I think it would be great to add a forum onto the site.

Hisham says low level flags should still be out there

I posted this thread on our forums

For some reason, I am no longer finding Navy Bulwark (and similar ships such as the Greyhound)flagships. I reported it as a bug but was told to use this. Is this a problem with the game, or were they taken out?


SERVER:Customer is waiting for Response...
HISHAM:Hi Goofy.
Goofy: Hello
HISHAM:Are you unable to locate these ships in any of the servers you visit?
Goofy: Yes, I have tried multiple
Goofy:I have also talked to other people in my guild, and they were also not able to locate them, only the very high level ones
HISHAM:One moment please.
Goofy: Ok
HISHAM:Thank you for waiting. I was checking to make sure if I was able to locate Navy Bulwarks and they looked available. Are you logged into Pirates right now?
Goofy: Yes
Goofy:I might have not been descriptive enough
Goofy:I meant Navy Bulwark Flagships
HISHAM:Okay, one mompent while I double check about that.
HISHAM:Thank you for waiting, I'm still checking about this issue.
Goofy: Ok
Goofy:I am also roaming around
HISHAM:Was it just Navy Bulwark flagships that you were having problems locationg or just flagships in general?
Goofy:Flagships in general except the high level ones
Goofy:High meaning 20 and above
Goofy: Like the Navy Colossus
Goofy: and the Navy Kingfisher
HISHAM:I was checking to see if there had been any known elimination of the lower level flagships. They should be out there, you may need to check in less populated servers.
Goofy: Ok, thank you for your time
HISHAM:You're welcome, and thank you for choosing Pirates Online Chat support. Have a great Memorial Day!
Goofy: You too
SERVER:Goofy has closed the chat Session

Note: I edited Goofy where my name should be

I just got my voodoo doll a few days ago. How come it basically does nothing

[cyre]

I just got my voodoo doll a few days ago. How come it basically does nothing

oh it does lots!! use skill points on the first 3 'skills' then get attune to 3, and then go back thru again.

voodoo is great for attuning an enemy then running around so they can't get you... i.e. at the fort, attune to one of the big guys there adn run around... less likely to die. You can also attune toa friend and heal them while they battle.

Trust me, voodoo is VERY useful!!

[threeboysmom]

I just got my voodoo doll a few days ago. How come it basically does nothing

It shouldn't. :confused3 You should be able to heal allies and injure enemies with it. Took me a while to catch on, but you first have to "attune" the doll to someone.... which basically means get close and click on the person, whether it be an enemy or ally. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think you have the ability to heal right away. So.... click on an enemy (you have to be close), THEN click on "poke" to injure them... wait for it to recharge and click "poke" again... repeat... until enemy is defeated. It's very helpful to run around while doing this so the enemy is unable to injure you in return.

Let me know if you need more help.

[taz]

Also, is anyone willing to help me get six corvettes and a marauder? I know it doesnt sound hard but whenever I sink them, it says the item is not found.


Last, where are the buried treasure spots in Tortuga?

[BobRichmond]

...I don't think you have the ability to heal right away...
Heal is the third spell you will get and I think it comes at doll lvl5. You will have poke from the start and I think you get swarm at doll lvl3.
...It's very helpful to run around while doing this so the enemy is unable to injure you in return...
Just be sure not to run too far from the enemy you have attuned or you will lose the attunement. When I used Fort Charles on Port Royal A LOT to level up my doll I used about half the gallows courtyard as the circle.

[BobRichmond]

...is anyone willing to help me get six corvettes and a marauder? I know it doesnt sound hard but whenever I sink them, it says the item is not found...
Well if it says they are not found it is at least trying. If you ever get where it does not say anything then it is best to logoff and then back in. There are a couple of Corvettes out between Driftwood and Rumrunner that usually work pretty well. As far as the Maurauder - off Padres is the best but there are a lot of high level enemies there.
...Last, where are the buried treasure spots in Tortuga?
There are 4 that I can think of.
1) Starting on the dock, turn left on the land, and go along the beach almost to the end. This is where the beach comes to a point near where the first alligator shows up. There is a dig spot near the island side of the beach there.
2) Starting on the dock, turn right on the land and follow the beach to where it ends behind the boatbuilders shop. Turn left and take the path and you will come into a clearing with a few buildings, a well, and a NPC named Hendry Cutts. In front of and across some logs from Cutts is a dig spot.
3) Starting inside the walled town take the exit right next to the Faithful Bride Tavern. Just behind the tavern is a small grassy area with a dig spot.
4) Facing the wall from spot #3 (above), go to the right up a small grassy hill. At the top is a level area with a dig spot.

While unlocking new weapons, I thought what do I want to do:

1. Level up all my weapons equally
2. Level up two weapons very high
3. Level up one weapon very high
4. Other


(if 2 or 3, what weapons?)

4) Facing the wall from spot #3 (above), go to the right up a small grassy hill. At the top is a level area with a dig spot.
I just thought of another one.
5) Starting at the dock, turn left on land, and then turn right at the first opportunity. This will take you to shanty town where you will see Butcher Brown in front of his stand. Behind and to the right of his stand you will see a short grassy rise with a fence running up the right side of it. At the top of the rise beside the fence is another dig spot.

[DudeZeke#2]

With my experiences, (level 34) I say you want to work on the three main weapons you will use the most.
1. Cutlass
2. Doll
3. Staff

While you don't unlock the staff right away, it's great ot pull out in dangerous situations. The cutlass, you use in almsot every situation. The doll, you can run around and attack, and with life drain at level 20, you can heal yourself. After getting these to twenty, which by then you should be in your 30's, go to tormenta, preferibly with a buddy, and level up everything else. Dagger should be next, as it cna do a lot of damage quickly, then pistol, and finally nades when you can take the damage. But don't forget to level up sailing and cannons, as you will use them for quests, and for retaknig the Pearl. If you have any questions, pm me. i tested both betas, and know a fair amount about the game.

Loot hard,

The Commodore

Zeke

[BobRichmond]

Good points all, but I have a little different perspective.
...you want to work on the three main weapons you will use the most.
1. Cutlass
2. Doll
3. Staff...
Since you will not even get the staff till level 30 notoriety, I would put pistol #3 and staff #4. I prefer the pistol over the dagger for 3 reasons. You can attack (and attrack) enemies from a further distance with take aim (pistol lvl 4), you can back up while still shooting free ammo which gives you a little better defense, and hex eater shoot (pistol lvl 10) is wonderful to use on voodoo using undead (witchdoctors, gypsies, etc.) as it takes all their voodoo after a few shots.
...the staff ...it's great ot pull out in dangerous situations.
After getting the staff and especially after getting the Wither spell (staff lvl 4) I find it works well as a main weapon. The only times I do not use it is if there is only one enemy needed to kill, I might need to heal myself (using the dolls lvl 20 Life Drain spell), or I am leveling up.

[threeboysmom]

and with life drain at level 20, you can heal yourself.

Oh yes! I had no idea you could use the doll at a certain level to heal yourself! Woot!

So I dont want to just have one really great weapon?


(Great answers though :thumbsup2 )

[LittleMermaidsMom]

I guess everybody has their preference when it comes to leveling weapons... here's what worked best for me (I have one pirate already maxed at level 40 an am working on another one; also some members of my first guild are working on their 3rd and 4th pirates and this is what we've found works best for us).

1. Doll - level your doll to 20 as soon as you get it, so you can unlock Life Drain and heal yourself, as Bob mentioned.

2. Either cutlass, pistol or dagger - work on leveling one of these next; my preference is dagger as you can make faster cuts than with the cutlass and you can still attack from a distance with throwing daggers. Also, the dagger unlocks some great passive skills.

3. Grenades - to me, these were the hardest weapon to level, so it's better to max these as soon as possible while you're still lower level and can get good reps from lower level enemies. This best place for this is that group of navy soldiers just inside the fort at Kingshead...stand behind the wooden fence and throw the grenades at them.. they'll come up to you, but won't be able to attack you because your behind the fence. If you do this as soon as you get your grenades, you should be able to average around 250 reps per group of soldiers - you can level here really fast! Also, grenades have awesome passive skills which will make you a lot stronger, your weapons stronger and your health greater. And if you enjoy PVP, this is a great weapon and passive skills to have; I'm rarely beat in PVP unless two level 40's gang up on me :faint:

[KrazyPete]

So I dont want to just have one really great weapon?

(Great answers though :thumbsup2 )

I'm probably doing it wrong but I like to level them all up pretty evenly.

It seems like there are certain situations where you might need each weapon and I don't want one of them to be weak when I need it. That said, I go to the cutlass a lot. So all of my weapons are L10 except the cutlass which is L13. I also try to unlock every skill when it's available. The only place where I get selective is in how I apply the extra skill points I get on the levels where no new skill is unlocked.

Edit: I just recently got the Grenade so it's only L4

[HappyGoLucky]

I don't think you are going about it wrong KrazyPete. That's how I basically leveled my weapons.

Believe me I have favorite weapons that I'll use if I'm in a bad situation, but I tried to keep all my weapons evenly leveled. The problem you'll have is if you level your favorite weapon completely to level 25 (Mastered), then if you use it you do NOT get any Rep towards your Notoriety.

Now having said that, when I first got my grenades I decided they were worthless and didn't bother with them. I had planned not leveling them at all lol. Well as my Notoriety went up, I began to think I wasn't going to get to Pirate Master without at least leveling them somewhat (plus as stated above, they have some good passive skills). (Then they added those new weapon quests after I Mastered my grenades, well that sort of changed my worry because you got Notoriety for those quests).

Also before I learned about the NOT getting any Rep after you Mastered your weapon, I had gotten my Voodoo Doll to level 24. So I stopped using it except in emergencies (healing). Now it's the only thing I haven't Mastered lol.

I'm a Pirate Master, I have all weapons Mastered (except Voodoo Doll which is close), and I've finished the Boss Battle.

Now I just twiddle my thumbs lol!

I don't think you are going about it wrong KrazyPete.

I do! :teeth:

But that's what's the most fun - disagreeing with Petez! :dance3:

I tend to use one or two weapons the most and not bother with the rest, but he uses them all.... I keep my skill points heavy on one or two skills, but he spreads them out all over. I like the room warm, he wants it cool, LOL!

Happy, not that I want you to pick sides (haha), but I'm not sure I get the gist of your post - are you saying we SHOULD level up all our weapons at once or not? Just a little confused here :)

[DudeZeke#2]

You shoudl get every weapon to 20, jsut to be safe. At 20, you'll still get rep for them all, but they're pretty good.

[BobRichmond]

I'm probably doing it wrong but I like to level them all up pretty evenly...
...I also try to unlock every skill when it's available....
...The only place where I get selective is in how I apply the extra skill points I get on the levels where no new skill is unlocked...
Well basically that is how I started doing it. All of my weapons now are between lvl 18.5 and 23.5, except for my lvl 12 grenades. I had unlocked every skill as it became available, but till just recently had not applied any extra skill points. The only extra skill points I have now applied is a couple of points to the doll's Attune skill, so I could attune multiple targets and this was just to help in the Boss Battle deck fight.

So now I have staff and doll between 22-23.5, pistol at 21, cutlass at 19 (working that up recently), dagger at 18.5 (working that up now), and grenades at 12 (recently worked on that too). At lvl 36 notoriety it is very time consuming to work up anything and with grenades also costs a bit. My main way to fight at the moment is to use pistol, dagger, or grenades just to get them leveled up and only bring out the staff, doll, or pistol if I feel it is needed.

You can level your weapons however you want to, I don't believe there is a right or wrong way.

But you should remember that when a weapon reaches level 25 (Mastered), you will NOT get any more Rep points towards your Notoriety. Which means if you want to reach Pirate Master (Notoriety Level 40), you will have to use other weapons to get those Rep points. You also get Notoriety (Rep) points doing the Pearl Quest (and Weapon Quests), but that alone is not enough to get you to Pirate Master.

So what I was trying to convey above was BEFORE I knew about the NOT getting any Rep points after a weapon was Mastered, I favored my Voodoo Doll and got it to level 24. (And because I didn't like the Grenades, I didn't plan to do anything with them but changed my mind.) AFTER I learned about the Weapon (Rep) Mastered situation, then I started working on all my weapons equally (keeping all my weapons at the same level, well except my Voodoo Doll which I had already leveled high lol).

It's a lesson I learned almost too late, so I was trying to share what I learned with others.

I kept mine equal because it was easier for me to rotate through the weapons (usually a level at a time), and not have to suffer having to do several levels later on (although that's exactly what happened with my Grenades lol, I had to suffer several levels of training to catch up to my other weapons, again trying to pass on a lesson learned lol).

So as you can see everyone has a different approach to leveling their weapons, and it appears we're still reaching Pirate Master lol.

Good Luck, and have fun!

OK...............

So.... you either have to play with your least favorite weapons NOW to keep them evenly leveled OR you can wait until the end when your favorites are maxed and play with them then...

I choose the latter because I still think I'm right and Petez is wrong ;)

That's fine. When our levels are way up there in the upper 30's I'll still have every weapon to choose from and still keep gaining rep. You'll be lobbing grenades at EVERYTHING! :dance3:

So there is many ways people do that. I think I am going to level up my cutlass to about 15. Keep it there for a while and while doing that level up my doll really high. Maybe get my other weapons around 9 or something.


I dont know......... too much to think about ;)


(anyone want to pillage some ships right now?)

[Sir_Quikslvr]

I bought a brand new Galleon. I got Unlimited Access today :woohoo:

[ihavewaycutecats]

okay, im pretty new to this whole pirates game. So i don't know where alot of places are. I need help finding fort charles, which island is it on? I am doing the voodoo doll quest thing where you have to plunder pitch and wire from crates in fort charles, or something.

[ihavewaycutecats]

oops double post, sorry.

[BobRichmond]

...need help finding fort charles, which island is it on?...
Fort Charles is the fort on the hill on Port Royal. If you are looking inland from the water it is to the far left of the island.

The 3 forts that are presently in PotCO are:
Fort Charles on Port Royal
Fort Dundee on Padres Del Fuego
Kingshead Fort on Kingshead

Thanks so much! that will help alot!

[taz]

Thanks so much! that will help alot!

I ask lots of questions too :)

He's a very good answerer....(cool word huh?)

[GoofyWaterCoaster]

When I get my unlimited access, should I get a galleon or a frigate?

I'm leaning toward a frigate

[BobRichmond]

When I get my unlimited access, should I get a galleon or a frigate?...
I prefer the frigate, which makes taking on a crew much easier and has better armor (especially in front). Others prefer the galleon, because it holds more cargo and has more broadside cannons.

[taz]

I got a galleon

[ShadowKittyKat]

I put my new pirate in the guild and I think I'll keep her there lol, she doesn't have her name yet and it hopefully will be Angelfish but it says Incomplete in the guild list. o.o

[seaturtledude]

Hi there, Elite DIS!

We are having another Guild event on Friday, June 27, and are counting on all of you joining us in a little friendly competition :teeth:

Here's the information I posted on our site, as well as our DIS thread....


I recently attended Mickey's Pirate & Princess Party and absolutely LOVED it!

Here's my own version of the party, POTCO style

This event will be a competition against the other DIS guild. Rocking our Roos will be on the Princess team (naturally) and the Elite DIS will be on the Pirate team.

The night will consist of a scavenger/treasure hunt in a race against the other team. Team members must stay together at all times and complete tasks in order and in the fastest time.

We will be getting our "bracelets" (to enter the party), participating in a parade, and watching fireworks as part of the event also.

On the day of the event, I will post more information on our DIS thread, including the list of scavenger hunt tasks for both guilds to access during the party.
