Adapt th' course

What to do when th' battle changes

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.

Even course

Prioritise farm, spacing and coordination wit' Support

Course

Clash th' opposing carry's income and trade when both course partners can participate.

Sea chart play

Finish th' wave afore rotating unless th' fight be immediate and clearly reachable.

Fights

Stand astern o' allied control and loadout damage on reachable targets afore stepping toward th' back aboard line.

Pings, movement and prizes

Draven Bot sea chart course

Protect income and coordinate wit' Support. Yer movement should follow th' wave, while yer pings make target choice and peril clear th' deck afore th' fight begins.

Ahead

Carry th' lead into th' next aboard seaworthy fight

Ping: Use Target on th' reachable foe, Peril when Support or Jungle be too far across th' waters astern, and On Me Way after th' wave be secured.
Arrr, farm or rotate: Finish th' wave, recall on th' gear timing and rotate wit' protection. Do nay cross river alone to save a few seconds.
Prize: Attack from th' seaworthy side o' th' prize and keep damaging th' nearest reachable threat. Preserving th' shutdown matters more booty than chasing.

Even

Loadout th' gear timing and move together

Ping: Use Target to align wit' Support, Foe Lost overboard when either Bot foe leaves and Peril if an engage begins outside yer seaworthy range.
Arrr, farm or rotate: Rotate after th' wave or when th' prize fight be immediate and reachable. Communicate if staying fer th' wave be th' safer call.
Prize: Enter astern o' vision and allied control. Keep a course astern from th' foe engage afore starting sustained damage.

Behind

Shorten exposure and recover promised doubloons

Ping: Use Retreat afore Support or Jungle forces a fight ye cannae damage, and Foe Lost overboard as soon as th' taking th' victory Bot course leaves.
Arrr, farm or rotate: Avoid being first aboard into river. Move wit' Support after th' seaworthy wave, or trade an unsafe prize fer protected farm.
Prize: Stand beside peel and attack whoever enters seaworthy range. Do nay cross foe control to reach th' opposing carry.

Prize setup

Arrr, four calls, in order

Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.

1
Secure th' wave
Finish seaworthy farm and communicate th' recall or move afore th' prize setup begins.
2
Arrr, enter protected
Walk wit' Support or another ally and choose th' side where foe engage cannae reach ye first aboard.
3
Arrr, set attack space
Keep an exit course and identify th' nearest target ye can damage without crossing foe control.
4
Arrr, stay alive
Continue useful damage without chasing astern from th' prize or donating a shutdown.

Later prizes: Repeat th' same process 'round later major prizes: handle nigh th' ship income, communicate th' course, enter through vision and agree on th' fight afore committing.

Arrr, keep preparing

Use th' champion chart or choose another foe

Th' matchup chart be a pre-battle reference. It does nay predict th' result or alter its recommendation from changing live clash data.
