The Singing Catfish Pirate Ship
The Singing Catfish pirate ship sits in the open sea southeast of Vellua Stronghold, a fishing village along the southern coast. The ship is visible from shore but far too distant to reach by swimming. Reaching it requires a rowboat and careful navigation through mine-laden waters.
How to Reach the Ship
Travel to Vellua and head east along the coastline.
Locate a small cove and beach where a rowboat rests on the sand. This is the only way to reach the ship.
Row toward the Singing Catfish, watching for sea mines that explode when you get close. These deal significant damage to both the rowboat and your character.
Approach from the bow (front) or stern (back) of the ship. The ship's side batteries fire on anything that comes alongside from port or starboard.
Row under the cannons to one of the ladders and climb aboard.
Boarding Combat
Once aboard, you face the ship's pirate crew and their vice captain. The deck is cramped, and enemies throw grenades that can be difficult to avoid in tight quarters. Clear the regular pirates first, then focus on the vice captain.
Rewards
The ship's cabins contain various loot, but the primary reward is the Pirate King Hat, a unique piece of Headgear found in a treasure chest below decks. The Pirate King Hat has a special Detect Treasure passive ability: the feather on the hat glows when a treasure chest is nearby, making it invaluable for finding hidden loot throughout the world.
