Reputation

Reputation is the measure of a pirate, crew or flag's propensity for participating in particular areas of the game. Whenever a pirate takes part in an activity tracked by a Reputation standing, he, his crew and his flag will all receive credit toward their respective Reputations. There are, from lowest to highest, eight levels of Reputation:

• Aspiring
• Rumored
• Noted
• Established
• Renowned
• Celebrated
• Eminent
• Illustrious

In addition, there are four different types of Reputation, described in detail below.

Types of Reputation

Explorer

Explorers value their freedom. They want to captain their own ship and see and do everything the ocean has to offer at their leisure. They love going on adventures to mysterious and new parts of the world, such as the Atlantean Outposts and the Cursed Isles. A pirate can earn Reputation as an Explorer by...

• Visiting a Citadel in an Atlantean Outpost
• Visiting a Cursed Isle
• Completing an Expedition on a pillage
• Traveling around the ocean

Patron

Patrons live to puzzle and have fun with a large circle of hearties. They prefer to spend any Pieces of Eight they earn on the high seas on entertaining themselves and their crew. They also love to practice and show off their skills in friendly competitions, such as event blockades and tournaments. A pirate can earn Reputation as a Patron by...

• Hosting and/or participating in tournaments
• Hosting event blockades
• Participating in Puzzle Competitions ("bake-offs")

Conqueror

Conquerors like to win. Not only that, but Conquerors like to win big. They get the biggest thrill from besting some of the most difficult targets in the ocean: Brigand Kings and their flotillas, skellies and zombies, and even other pirate flags and their island hideaways! A pirate can earn Reputation as a Conqueror by...

• Fighting and scuttling the Brigand Kings
• Attacking and clearing out flotillas
• Defeating skellies and zombies
• Fighting and sinking other pirates' ships (PvP)
• Declaring and participating in blockades

Magnate

Magnates realize that everything has a price. They live to amass wealth and then spend it on a lavish lifestyle for themselves: clothing, ships, portraits, you name it! They especially relish the acquisition of rarer items, such as those wrested from the hands of the Atlanteans, or those that are available only for a limited time from the very exclusive Palace Shoppe. A pirate can earn Reputation as a Magnate by...

• Retrieving chests from the Cursed Isles or Atlantis
• Purchasing items, including portraits and Palace Shoppe goods
