Of Pirates, Plunder and Notoriety

[Vangelis]

That for weapons you have maxed out, you can no longer gain any rep towards the OVERALL notoriety of your pirate.

For example, I had maxed out my cutlass, but still got rep on my main level for kills. Now I don't, it gives ZERO rep every time.

There are 8 things you can get rep, 6 weapons, 1 Sailing, 1 cannon, I just hope these all add up to overall level 40.

Oh, and the quests as well of course :-)

[Molly Redbowers]

Rep earned from taking a weapon from L1 to Mastered, L25, at this point of time in the game earns 56600 reps for each weapon. If one includes Sailing and Cannon there are eight weapons that we have to master yielding a total of 452800 rep points. Here are the reps needed for each level:

L1 - L2 50
L2 - L3 150
L3 - L4 300
L4 - L5 500
L5 - L6 700
L6 - L7 900
L7 - L8 1100
L8 - L9 1300
L9 - L10 1500
L10 - L11 1700
L11 - L12 1900
L12 - L13 2100
L13 - L14 2300
L14 - L15 2500
L15 - L16 2700
L16 - L17 2900
L17 - L18 3200
L18 - L19 3500
L19 - L20 3800
L20 - L21 4100
L21 - L22 4400
L22 - L23 4700
L23 - L24 5000
L24 - L25 5300

Total Rep 56600

Looking at my current Notoriety and the weapons I need to master I feel the game will allow one to reach Notoriety 40. However, to do this I say one must Master all their weapons including Sailing and Cannon and complete the Black Pearl chapter to accomplish this.

I had not mastered a weapon until yesterday and I had not really given much thought to getting rep points after a weapon was mastered. However, after playing TT for a couple of years I really did not expect to receive any. I have tried to level up all of the weapons available. Once they add new content to the game I am sure adjustments will be made, whether it be in the form that we receive rep points for mastered weapons or new levels are attainable for each of our weapons.

I'm level 39, have 1 weapon mastered, and 2 at 21, the rest are at 23. This doesn't include sailing or cannon, and I have more than enough room with each weapon to reach level 40. yay

[WizardHawk]

I'm in much the same boat PR. Close to level 39 and no weapons mastered. I have had sailing mastered for a while, but cannon is 24 and two weapons are 24. 3 are at 20 and one or two in low 20's. Can reach 40 without worry.

How'd you guys level up so fast?

I shouldn't have quit World of Warcraft last year. I'd be accustomed to long grinds and this game would be a cake walk.

[Hile]

Why bother trying to level fast? Whats the big hurry? I'm taking my time with it because I know once I reach it I'll be stuck waiting forever for new stuff and get bored. As casual as I'm playing I still feel like I'm leveling up too fast. Already level 28.

For me, it's all I can do while I wait. I really like the game and want to play. But I've finished all the quests, I don't like the PvP matches very much because they never seem to be evenly matched, and I suck at Poker. Until they add the Boss Battle and some new quests, there's not much to do but play with my weapons.

Have you considered creating a new pirate? I have two on open (LVL28 & 26) and one on test (LVL11) and I really enjoy going back and forth between them. I know I'd get bored just leveling the same one all the time.

My pirate on the test server is especially interesting to play, as there are so few people around to help him out. Often he is the only one around, so sailing from island to island, sinking ships, or fighting land battles can be really challenging (especially with the recent changes). It's strange - though refreshing - to have such limited skills again. (I only recently got the Tortuga Teleport and Voodoo Doll quests done, and am now working on Dagger.) But he might just end up being my best Pirate, as he won't make the same mistakes as my other two.

[Eliza Shipwrecker]

I actually did start another pirate, but I'm having a hard time staying interested with either of them.

I decided my new pirate would not make the same "mistakes" with how I used my skill points, but the thought of going through all those repetitive quests only have to have two pirates stuck with nothing to do just doesn't blow my skirt up. At this point I don't know if I'm even going to keep my membership - I'm very disillusioned with the whole game.
