I have 3 characters that can all take the ship, the first 4 ships and the first set of bridges and I will have 80% or more of ship health left.
I can take the first and second set of bridges downstream and still have a GREEN health line on ship. Just barely GREEN.
It is the 4th set of bridges driving me nuts.
Does anyone have any good ideas on how to take the 4th and final set of bridges solo?
I have tried putting ship on left and right side of river to no avail;
I have gone straight through 3rd bridge and turned left and right to no avail;
If I go up the middle and turn left and whale on left side with Fury I can sometimes get the left side but never the right side guns?
***** Here Is How I Do It *****
1. have plenty of tonic on hand
2. pull lvl 15+ Staff with 5 skill points on Wither before you start battle
3. Start Boss battle and pull staff and start whaling away with Staff and slowly turn left
4. When your life line is short RED hit T and run and JUMP up the front stairs and turn and use Staff again and agin.
5. When heading to first 4 ships RUN & Jump to front left gun position and get front left first then back left and then RUN & Jump back to back right side of the ship and get gun by steering wheel and shoot back ship first and then front ship
6. Any good ammo works for the ships with very little difference. Even finely tuned Steel Shot works fine. It should take you no more than 7 shots or salos of shots to sink each ship.
7. As you sink 4th ship switch ammo to Fury or Thunder (I have these 2) and run to steering wheel and turn ship 90 degrees to the right do not raise the sails and just before you run to guns click on Take Cover (I have 5 skill points here)
8. Always shoot left to right so shoot the left and middle bridge guns and then run back to steering wheel and turn Take Cover back on again.
9. Going through the first gate(s) I usually use the left gate under full sail and turn right with Come About. Drop your sail and click on Take Cover and gun should still be on Good Ammo so open up on the LEFT side first!!! Now here is the only gimme you will get the RIGHT side is NOT shooting at you!! Use Steel shot and save the really good stuff. Remember to switch back to Thunder or Fury after steel.
10. 3rd set of bridges (2nd downstream) use full sail and as you pass through turn LEFT and HIT the shore. The screen may be a bit jumpy. Your view may be ONLY the back of the Black Pearl. Turn on Take Cover and grab a Gun and shoot left and then right.
This is as far as I can get, but I can get here with a GREEN health line on my ships hull. Barely green. I am NOT an expert on the 4th set of bridges (waaaahhhhh).
Now if you can get a ship past here with even a tiny red line of health left YOU CAN WIN THE BATTLE. To win you will outrun the Goliath and DO NOT TRY and FIGHT. Goliath will not be in your radar (compass) so don't stop to look around. To win start sailing towards the mouth of the river ie start of the ocean. A cut scene will come in and as soon as it is over and you are sailing hit Take Cover and then hit RAM Speed (I have 5 skill points on each) and as soon as RAM Speed is over hit Full Sail (I have 5 skill points here also) now when Full Sail is over turn 90 degrees left and look at the Goliath. Enough looking now grab the wheel again and take off into the Caribbean and you have won without fighting the Goliath. Do not get brave and go back and try and fight Goliath unless you have a ton of health. Remember you are all by yourself!!
have fun and good luck.
