- Explore Sainte-Anne: This is the pirate den in the game where you can craft, trade, and customize. Interacting with NPCs here, like the local kingpin John Scurlock, will give you contracts, bounties, and objectives. Completing these yields valuable rewards, including new weapons, outfits, pets, and Infamy, the game’s version of XP.
- Cooperative Play: The game allows for cooperative play where you can sail and complete contracts with friends. Co-op gameplay enhances the difficulty but also increases the value of loot. You can also trade supplies with friends while at sea.
- Activity Tracking: Keep track of your activities through the in-game journal. This feature helps you navigate through main contracts, side quests, events, and treasure maps.
- Crew Interaction: Pay attention to your crew’s callouts for nearby ships, supplies, or crafting materials. They can also alert you to relevant locations for your treasure maps. You can also enjoy sea shanties on command.
- Cargo Management: Efficiently managing your cargo is crucial. Your cargo hold’s space varies depending on your ship. Regularly check and organize your cargo to accommodate new loot and for optimal efficiency during quests.
- Ship Customization: Before embarking, customize your ship’s weapons, attachments, and furniture based on your mission’s needs. Different situations may require specific types of equipment like long cannons for chase missions or bombard for plundering settlements.
- Continuous Sailing: Remember, the game doesn’t pause. This is crucial during plundering activities. Be swift in looting and managing your cargo, as you remain vulnerable during these activities.
- Scouting with Spyglass: Use your spyglass for scouting enemy ships and merchants. This tool is vital for planning your strategy in combat and for identifying valuable trade routes and quest items.
