Profile - Your very own Pirate

Now on to the last screen, the profile screen. This is all about the mighty Pirate you are building.

There are several additional menus in the profile section, with 'Profile' being the default. You can also go an look at Achievements, Arming and Armada.

Achievements are rewards given for significant events, like completing an adventure a minimum number of times, fighting, reaching certain levels and many other things.

Arming is your personal load out. More on that below.

Armada will take you a list of every active armada in the game. If you haven't already joined an armada, you can find one here. If you have joined an armada, it will be the first one listed here.

The profile section will provide a wealth of information. Lets start there...

The user tab will give a central place to see information about you that is not available to anybody else. This gives you a sort of snapshot of your character. The Bounty that is listed is the initial price another Pirate will have to pay to put you on the Bounty list for attack by any players in the game. If somebody wants to bounty you a second time, they will have to pay 75% more for the second, and all subsequent bounties.
At the bottom, is the total number of mateys, weapons and ships you have in inventory.

The Clan Feed tab will show you what your Captains see when they visit your profile page.

The Stats tab will give you this screen:

This screen keeps track of almost every stat you might want to know about your Pirate and performance in many areas. It is also the only screen a non-Captain will see when they visit your profile.

The Battle Strength tab is a very important one. And again, it is only visible to you. It will look like this:

The Personal Attack and Defense are your skills in these areas.

The Armed Attack and Defense come from your personal load out, covered below.

The next three categories are the total strength provided by arming your Captains. Each of the sections in blue can be clicked on, expanding them down. This allows you to see what items you will bring into battle on the attack, or when you are attacked.

The Total Attack and Defense are the sum totals of the previous 5 numbers.

As we move down through the profile screen, we arrive at the Personal Loadout:

This is your Pirates personal weapons. There are 2 slots for Weapons, one for a Matey, and one for a Ship.

When you click on the Arming link at the top of the Profile page, or on the 'Customize Your Loadout' button, you will be taken to a screen like this one:

This offers you a number of options. At the top left, there is a pull-down menu - the default is 'Loadout A'. you can save up to 3 different loadouts for your character. 

TIP: Set up 3 different loadouts, 1 balanced, 1 attack and 1 defense.

As we continue down the Profile Page, we get to something often overlooked. The Wish List.

The Wish List is really important, for new players, it can provide ships, matey's and weapons that have no upkeep cost and provide good attack/defense strength. For experienced players, it provides the items they need to upgrade weapons, ships and mateys at the Blacksmith.

You should set your Wish List up to request items you need from your Captains.

The very last thing you will see on the Profile is the inventory tabs. This will show you every item you currently own, in various tabs. There is also a pull-down menu to sort the inventory. The Achievements tab will show you all of your achievements with the date you earned them.
