Boarding

Boarding

Lore

The young and enterprising captain of Her Majesty’s Fleet Jim Perry had been tracking the Terror of the Southern Seas, the pirate Hellscream. The old sea-wolf earned that nickname for his terrifying shout “Board them!”, which froze enemy crews. Sighting the pirate ship, the young captain would not let such a prize go and crowded on sail. And almost at the bay of the pirate island Corsica, Jim caught Hellscream… Board them!!!

Preparation

After an administrator announcement in the public chat, every online character of the matching level automatically receives a personal item — Pirate Rum. From that moment the quest timer starts; it lasts 25 minutes. To take part, use the received item at once; your character will then appear in the quest zone (when it ends everyone is sent to their spawn).

Start

darkswords.ru_boardship_map.jpg After teleporting with Pirate Rum, players appear in the cabin and wait to be assigned to teams. In the cabin there is an elixir shop. Elixirs are free, but limited by weight. Everyone must pick elixirs in time and arrange them in the backpack as they like. After every death on the ships the chosen potion set and layout are restored.

Description

darkswords.ru_game_code_avatars_2169.jpg darkswords.ru_game_code_avatars_2168.jpg The ships close and the fight begins; Hellscream chooses to board. It is a fight to the last drop of blood! After assignment you fight for the Pirates or Royal Fleet. You can tell teammates from enemies by the personal avatar. Players do not see original avatars, nicknames or effects.

  • Killing an enemy awards team and personal points equal to their religion level, but not less than 30.
  • Killing a Ship Rat is worth 2 personal points on your side of the ship, and 5 on the enemy side.
  • If both teams have members of the same alliance, kills of allies award no points.

Man overboard!

On death you fall overboard and after 30 seconds appear in your ship’s cabin (map: red — pirates, blue — Royal Fleet). In the water you must escape the Shark, always ready to snack on a sailor. They also have the «Surfacing”; when it ends they surface and appear in their cabins. You have 30 seconds to avoid the shark, or you lose 2 personal points and teleport to your cabin at once.

Shark

Ship Rat

Objective

Kill as many enemies as you can from the other team, Ship Rat and try not to die to Hellscream or Jim Perry’s blade Jim Perry.
