Crew
From Pirates of the Caribbean Online Wiki
Contents |
[edit] Definition
A crew is a group of pirates that fight, plunder or sail together. There is strength in numbers and working together, a crew can overcome larger, more numerous enemies, be able to protect and heal one another and share in larger rewards for their efforts.
Crews are fundamental to Pirate of the Caribbean Online, as the game rewards cooperation above all else.
Crewmates also can track each other on the compass. Fellow crewmen appear as pink dots. Crews also have a Chat Space that only those in the crew can see.
[edit] Crew Bonus
Being in a crew increases a pirate's reputation points they earn. The more pirates in a crew, the higher the bonus.
- Two Pirates - +20%
- Three Pirates - +25%
- Four Pirates - +30%
- Five Pirates - +35%
- Six Pirates - +40%
- Seven Pirates - +45%
- Eight or More Pirates - +50%
[edit] Starting A Crew
To create a crew, simply click on another pirate, or their name in your friend list. Then, chose the option Crew. If the pirate is already in a crew, you will not be able to add them until they drop out of it.
Once a crew is started only the Crew Leader, the pirate who started the crew, has the ability to add new mates.
In ship-to-ship pirate vs. pirate, a pirate can choose the Start a Crew option to randomly add pirates looking for crew to join.
For pirates searching for a crew to join or members for their own, there is a Looking for Crew option, which will appear above the pirate's head.
[edit] Leaving A Crew
A pirate can leave a crew at anytime by selecting Leave Crew. If the pirate leaving is the pirate who created the crew, the ability to add new members is passed to another pirate. There will be a Mug with a line through it in the upper-left. Click to drop out of your crew.
If the pirate who started the crew leaves or is dropped from the game, another pirate becomes crew leader.
[edit] Rejoining A Crew
Recently, a feature was added to help pirates who are accidentally dropped due to technical or communication issues. Upon returning to the game, if their original crew is still together, they will be asked if they wish to rejoin their crew.
However, the pirate will NOT automatically relocate to their crew - they will have to teleport themselves.
[edit] Crew Chat
When part of a crew, you can communicate with your crewmates directly. In Chat Box, in the lower-left, click on the Crew tab. Now, any text entered will appear in Light Green and only other crewmates can view it.
