Pirate101 Companions

Ahoy Pirates!

Welcome to a different kind of post explaining a few things you may want to know about Pirate101 Companions! Companions help you so you aren't defeated in a battle. They can be as strong as you want them to be. You have to level them though..


Step 1: Level your Companions


- You have to use training points to level your companions. These training points can level your companions a little bit. If you haven't used a few training points for awhile and you want to level your other companions, lets say the level 8 Bull Ronin and you decide to use one training point to train your companion it will level a few levels! When leveling your companion you can get select 8 talents or click on the same talent two times AND you choose an Epic Talent! You can level your companions with you.


Strength
Strength 
Strength increases the damage for the companions for weapons. Your companion has strength with their normal attack as it progresses but you can make them stronger with Strength! You can choose that for a talent you can also cast a spell that will give them and you extra Strength!

Agility
Agility

Agility increases damage for ranged weapons. This means if you're shooting far away from an enemy with a gun that shoots lightning you can increase the damage by choosing this talent for your companion. You also have spells to cast to get this talent!

Will
Will

Will increases damage for magical attacks. 


Accuracy
Accuracy

Accuracy improves the chance that your attacks will hit the enemy.This is like Wizard101, by that I mean you will miss if you don't have enough accuracy and if you do have enough you have more of a chance of hitting the enemy! 
Dodge
Dodge

Dodge decreases the chance that the enemy attacks will hit you. Dodge can be good and bad. Good if you have enough of it, and bad if the enemy does. Dodge will help your Pirate a lot, it will also help your Companion of course.

Armor
Armor

Armor will help reduce damage from Physical attacks.

Damage
Damage

The range of damage an attack will simply deal. 

Resistance
Resistance

Resistance helps reduce damage taken from magical attacks.

Health:

Pirate101's website may have not mentioned this but when you train your companion they gain health too. The more health, the better chance of them not dying in the battle! :)


Some are left blank (Only what Pirate101 says) because there's not so much to explain about it, its more like Wizard101 :) You'll understand it by looking. 


Step 2: Make sure to Equip your Companions

- Some of you are probably wondering how to equip your companions right? Well when you start Pirate101 you will be able to equip your companions by click and holding on a companions and scrolling over the Companion Screen and then you can have it as your firstmate! You can equip any companion you would like to equip. 


Step 3: Battle with enemies your companions!

Companions are very helpful. When you join Pirate101 you will notice that no matter what. They are more helpful than the pets on Wizard101. Companions are your crew, never forget about them, they are the ones that help you throughout the game with the Armanda! Lets bring back ratbeard and you'll understand how!

Ratbeard to the Rescue!



Did I tell you guys once you join Pirate101 during the tutorial you will meet your first companion?! Different schools get different companions though, here's the Buccaneer first Companion :)

Pirate101 Q&A (Part 2)

Ahoy!

I've noticed that a few friends have asked me where to download the game. You can't download the game at the moment, you will only be able to download it when its released to the public. The game is still in Beta Testing. Once Beta testing is done (When Kingsisle announces the public release date) you will be able to download the game then. If you would like to see the message boards from Beta players, and Kingsisle you can go look at it by clicking on the link below, you can only look at it and not type or respond unless you're in Beta testing.



Lets think of more questions you may have been asking and never figured out..


When will Pirate101 be released?

Its going to be released when Kingsisle and Pirate101 says, a few months ago they said later this year, so it should be soon since the end of the year is approaching. They are the only ones who know though, so we'll have to wait!


Is there a link you can send me to? I really want to play the game!

There's no link I can send you to, You will have to wait until Pirate101 is released to the public. I don't know if Pirate101 is giving out anymore Beta keys since they gave out a lot already.


Is Pirate101 fun?

Well..... I don't know how to put this but.... YES!!!! Its a lot of fun :) I'm sure you will love playing Pirate101 when its released, if you ask all of the beta players this same questions I'm pretty sure they will say the same exact thing. I can't speak for everyone, but I'm sure they will love it too! I hope I'm not going to be on Pirate101 more than Wizard101 to tell the truth, that's how fun it is :) Kingsisle really did a great job creating this game!



If you have anymore questions please comment below :) I'll try to answer them!
