Boat Battling Fundamentals
The Pirate boats beat the Navarre boats and Navarre boats beat Dandolo boats and Dandolo boats beat Pirate boats. The reason being is the Pirate boats are weak to thunder attacks and that’s the Dandolo’s specialty. The Navarre are weak to explosives and that’s the Pirate’s speciality. The Dangdolo boats are weak to arrows and that is the Navarre’s specialty. Knowing this will help you tremendously later on in the game when you have different boats.
Pirate > Navarre > Dandolo > Pirate
side note: to do well in the story mode, you have to build up your Navarre boat.
Character Strategy
Get the bear, Smoothie, his specialty doubles all the weapons attack and is to speed up one person’s attack. You get him later on in the story. Keep him on your main boat. The arrow girl, Adele, will be a main asset you will want to keep. Especially against the Dandolo boats. Since she is with you the entire time, her level will be higher than most characters, which makes her stronger. Having a healer on your boat is very helpful and you should definitely try to get one. It is especially helpful when you start going on crusades once you get to level 12. Please do not forget to get a character out of one of the chests. (You do not need to use money if you save up the F jewels you get throughout the game. )
