Crewin' Up Made Simple Looking for a crew in Pirates Online has never been easier! Based on your feedback, we have implemented a new "Looking for Crew" (LFC) feature that allows you to tell other Pirates that you are interested in crewing up by placing a "Looking for Crew" message above your Pirate's head. There are two different ways to activate this new feature: 1. Click on the "Crew Options" button on your Crew Panel. Select "Looking for Crew". To get to your Crew Panel:
2. Type /lfc into your chat window. The "Looking for Crew" message will appear above your Pirate's head. Update: Black Pearl Boss Battle Some players were finding it difficult to remember which townsperson they needed to return to when completing a Quest. In order to help alleviate some of this confusion, we've made some enhancements to the Quest tracking system. Now, when you are in the "return to townsperson" stage of completing a Quest, simply follow the ray of light and the yellow arrow at your feet to return to your townsperson. Cloth Maps from the Pre-Order Program For those players who are newer to Pirates Online, as well as anyone else who missed out on the Pre-Order Program, we wanted to share with you some pictures of the limited-edition exclusive cloth maps we created. Each map also came with its own numbered certificate of authenticity. For those players who did pre-order...we hope you enjoy your map! "What Are Skill Points? Each time your Pirate gains a level in a Weapon, you earn 1 Skill Point for that Weapon. You can then spend these Skill Points to unlock new Skills or upgrade existing Skills to make them more powerful. Check out the Player's Guide for all the details on Skill Points and how to spend them.  "10 Sony Mylo'sTM Are Still Up for Grabs!
