If it were a pirate captain, maybe, you could go with the Monkey II, but I think the vanilla tech 1 is enough for a plain ol' pirate. You don't want any one item that costs more then your base, usually.

Good fit, but might I suggest swapping out the medium parrot I for a ships monkey II ? Just in case of those "locked in a jail cell and the guard is asleep with his keys on the table" moments. That monkey has gotten me out of that situation too many times to count.

---

I use a very similar fit to those above, however I've replace the 'Large Red Overcoat II' for a 'Rusty Cutlass II'.

I've found that the 'Large Red Overcoat' greatly increases my visibility (making me a bigger target and restricts movement), whilst the 'Rusty Cutlass' is much lighter allowing me to move quicker, more freely and most importantly grants access to the 'Walk the plank' finishing move.

---

I usually try to get an iron hook in there, but you may have to downgrade some of the tech II equipment to named items to get room in the fitting.

Well as most pirate secrets are out now, I guess another won't hurt.

Have you tried the RedRum Boosters? (so named, as it spells Murder backwards)

• This booster numbs a pilot's sense of feeling in attacks, letting him fight anything that looks at him 'funny like'. The discomfort of having his head spinning piecemeal remains unaltered, but the pilot is filled with such a surge of rage, that he bullies all his ship mates and picks fights with old ladies.

Ok, look: while y'all are assuming the OP was looking for a solo pirate, we all know those days are long past and you need a crew these days. I prefer to run with a more ranged DPS fit, plus it leaves room for some of the "extras".

Frankly I don't know why you guys are leaving out the wench. Once activated it provides a significant buffer and there's just no downside in a quick sc****. Sure, over time you're looking at a drain on your Coins, but whatever. By that time you're dead, right?

Also: why are you leaving a rig slot open?

Personally, though, I prefer to use the slightly more expensive Swashbuckler, as you get more mids to play with and can usually fit two weapons plus the puffy shirt.

these are overpowered, if oyu comit to a fight you should go all out fitting a ships monkey II is a cowardly way out imo, but then i spose we are talking pirates here, so i wouldnt expect any honour extenders.

Above are mostly throat cutter fits or slight variations thereof. They usually get the pillaging done, but I myself like to surprise other pirates with a less conventional dual hook fit:

[Pirate, Dual Hook]

Low slots

Iron Hook Hand II
Iron Hook Hand II

Med slots

Puffy Linen Shirt II
Large Red Overcoat II

High slots

Ouchmaster Cannon II, Angel Cartel Lead Cannonballs
Stained Scimitar I (offline)

Rig Slots

Ship Monkey I
Jug O' Rum I


As said before, the hooks take quite a bit of fitting space, so you can only fit one Ouchmaster and a heat sink mod. But other pirates usually keep more of a distance if they're threatened to lose an eye to a pair of Hook Hands (especially if they already have an Eye Patch fitted!).

The ship monkey can use the matches to fire the cannon for you if you have skilled Monkey Business to V, you have to invest at least a month for that. Worth it though!
