r/Pirate101

Does anyone else remember the old meta (if there was one)?

Or at the very least, companions who were very popular in the old days, but you don't really see being used as often anymore? Not the ones who have always been good, like El Toro, nor the ones who glowed up, like Old Scratch.

Off the top of my head, a lot of people used their starting companions throughout the story, or at least until the end of Mooshu. I think Kobe Yojimbo was the most popular, too, and he still is! A lot of people also loved Egg Shen, and rightfully so, because he is so nice 🩷

Bonnie Anne was everyone's girl and go-to musketeer, a lot of the girls immediately made her firstmate as soon as they got her (I was definitely one of them). I think that she, Louis, and Wing were your starting team for a good duration of the early and mid game as a musketeer. Wing was your tank (kinda), while you, Bonnie, and Louis were the ranged units. She is still loved by the community, but Chantal straight-up outclasses her now 🙁

Ratbeard was very popular too! Even though he is great for defense (even better now than before), I hardly see people use him now compared to before, especially in late-game. I love using him as a "hold the line wall" when I am playing defensive tank on buccaneer or privateer and questing/farming with others. Most buccs use Peter Quint now or farm pack companions (mainly Bellator and Holkun)

Monkey King was everywhere as well, even in casual PVP. Shiruku Neko is regaining her popularity as well thanks to her new rework, and I am so happy! I have been using her the most on my swashbuckler, I plan to go for a ninja/martial arts look.

I also saw Zeena, Hawkules, and Nausica a lot-- I think Nausica was the main P2W girl when you did PVP back in the day. She and Zeena were a must for musketeers, while Hawkules was more for buccaneers.

I think PVP back then also wasn't as P2W as it is now.... mainly because a lot of us were broke kids at the time too so we didn't have a lot to spend on crowns and shop packs 😅 The most P2W we had was bundle companions-- Hugo Victor, Nausica, Hoodoo Cornelius.

I'm dumb 💀

I'm the commentator in this picture but man I was fighting Ch'ok Ak'ab, I tried hitting the statue early on but I think I was too close because it didn't do any damage. So I thought I had to fight the blood lord and he healed every hit. Finally googled what I did wrong and I felt like an idiot lol💀

End my suffering.

boochbeard said this would take about 15 minutes but it took about 2-3 business days

So I’m wondering how much of the game there’s left.

So I just bought the membership for my old account. I just got into mooshu and I have to collect a statue for a guy to find the third map piece. How much more game hours approximately do I have left? Just curious

Hmm. Huh That's Interesting. 0_0

I just got online on my max, to find me at one hp, and here. Yes, I still call being at 70 max. That is not the issue here though. Is this a bug? Also, HOW IN COOL RANCH DID MY SHIP GET HERE AFTER GOING OFFLINE!?

P.S. It doesn't kick me from area even after changing ships. Also, even after spending over 600 in boost, ship did not move even a meter, so seems area also makes your ship immobile.

Does she know?

Ok so it's been a hot minute since I've played so don't flame me if this is a dumb question, but does Gracie Conrad KNOW we started the Marleybone war??? Like it'd make sense why we wouldn't reveal it to her while we're in Marleybone but that is kinda messed up we still haven't said anything to her about it afterwards.

Or maybe she knows and doesn't care. Idk

Glitch or not?

Sorry I’m brand new to this game and while questing in Monquista, several areas have looked like this. Just wondering if it is supposed to and what to do to fix it if not.

Thanks!

OC Sketches n' Stuff (art dump)

Oh my gosh I can't believe I'm posting this aaaaahhh. I'm sorry about the quality, I've been fiddling with it for an hour and its not any better...

Here you go: a collection of P101 OC sketches I've deemed worthy to post online for some reason. I already posted one of these before but I just threw them in because why not.

Beastmaster build is insane

This is one of my lovely chud sons. I can bring 4 into battle if I include my pet. The beastmaster banner + privateer buffs make this team unfathomably strong, to the point where its almost been boring cause they just slaughter everything. Played this game alot when I was a kid and I came back thinking I'd do a gimmick build with my favorite companions (the beasts). This girl-fail has swept everyone with the power of a funny bat-fish, a bird, a shark and a scorpion. I saw almost nothing posted on the banners or beasts, so im surprised it seems lesser known.

Worlds Difficulty

Hello guys! I am a level 37 swashbuckler, just finished Cool Ranch storyline using Fan Flenders, Sarah Steele, El Toro

How do you guys find the following worlds after Cool Ranch (mooshu and marleybone for example) in terms of difficulty compared to Cool Ranch? I didn't had any problems soloing Cool Ranch

And another question, are these 3 companions the default lineup for a Swash pirate?

Class Recomendations?

I'm completely new and haven't made a character or touched the game yet. I am going to today but I'm not sure which class I'm most interested in. I've debated between a swashbuckler and a witch doctor. I liked witch doctor because I came from wizard101 and the arcane aspects. But I liked the combat style of a swashbuckler. I was looking for opinions and advice on which people enjoy and which would be the best option for a beginner completely new to the game.

Potential New Player

I've never played Pirate101, but I'm active and really into wizard101. I have considered making an account and trying pirate101 but I haven't found much of an online community for it aside from reddit. Are people still active and playing it? I'm curious if it's worth getting into it. Thanks in advance for the feedback and time!

What Pirate101 opinion would have you like this? I’ll start.

As much as I love the worldbuilding of Pirate101, the plot is… a choice.

What frustrates me the most is that so often it feels like the Pirate goes through an entire world only to make NO progress towards their goal. Sometimes I even find myself asking “Why am I here again?” (coughMOOSHUcough)

In that sense, I feel like Wizard101 is a better story in terms of making the player feel like they’re progressing towards a clear end goal. Like, at least I know why my character is in each world usually.

Spam summons? Max summon count?

A bit of a silly question. I love the summon aspect of any game, espically pirate. How many summons could you get on the field? I mean huge battle field, 100+ tiles, could you fill them? If not, how many? I think 4 witch doctors with scratch and that old crab dude could do some crazy numbers.

TheFearsomeRubberDucky / P101 - Problematic.

TheFearsomeRubberDucky on YouTube is a known problematic figure in this community.

  1. Has allegations related to minors/child safety

  2. Bullying and harassment to players and content creators

  3. Known creep to much of the PvP community

  4. Feeds Pirate101 art and assets into AI image generators in order to mass produce AI slop thumbnails

***NEW: Referring to women and their "knockers" in relation to Pirate101 (A KIDS GAME) for his videos.

This is really gross and disgusting behavior. Yes, many in this community are grown, but this is still a kid's game.

Bladestorm 4 or Bladestorm 3 w/ riposte 1 and repel boarders 1?

This is on my lvl 75 Buccaneer.

W/ the Kraven blade I have Bladestorm 4.

With the daggers, I have Bladestorm 3 w/ riposte 1 and repel boarders 1.

For reference, I have Vengenance Strike 4, merciless 2, second chance 1, cheap shot 2, relentless 3, elusive 3, hold the line 4, pirate 3, turn the tide 5, and flanking 2 as well.

I am also working towards getting the lvl 75+ ring with riposte. If I keep the blades, I will have riposte 2.

Which should I go for? The blade or the daggers? Thanks.
