Missions are short tasks that can be taken by pirates from the Notice Board. The missions available depend on a pirate's experience and whether the pirate is carrying PoE.

The mission board as it appears to yellow players.

At the inn

A pirate must be subscribed (subscription ocean) or have a parlor badge (doubloon oceans) to get the puzzle missions for the days they are not free.

Note: All of these missions contribute to player rating and experience in the specific puzzle and may pay in the form of a won wager.

At the palace or fort

The Drinking mission is only available if a pirate is able to play the puzzle and has completed at least four Pollywog or navy missions. There are ten difficulty levels for these missions. In the list below, your current level appears instead of X.

Note: All of these missions against the trainer bots do not contribute to player rating nor experience in the specific puzzle and pay no wage. This is as opposed to matches against normal NPP's that will contribute to player rating and experience.

  • Drinking challenge: X cups.
  • Rumble challenge: X Knockouts.
  • Swordfighting challenge: X swords.

Crafting

On a doubloon ocean, a pirate must have a labor badge for these missions to appear. There must also be something that requires that type of labor to be worked on. Taking one of these missions always directs you to a shoppe or stall with orders in the queue.

For the challenge missions it should look for things in the following order:

  • Current island
  • Same archipelago islands
  • Home island
  • Same archipelago as home islands

Note: All of these missions contribute to player rating and experience in the specific puzzle and pay a wage as set by the shoppe or stall.

Shopping

A pirate must have PoE on hand for the following missions:

  • 5,000 poe for the "Buy a new sword" mission
  • 1,000 poe for the "Buy some new clothes" mission

Aboard the navy

Basic Navy Missions

Note: by taking one of the following missions and then canceling it once aboard, you can practice any of the other duty stations above, without restrictions. All of these missions contribute to player rating and experience in the specific puzzle and pay a wage relative to the player's performance.

  • Bilge with the navy.
  • Carpent with the navy.
  • Rig with the navy.
  • Sail with the navy.
  • Gun with the navy. (Requires above four to be at Narrow or higher)

Advanced Navy Missions

Note: A pirate must have at least broad experience in bilge, sailing or rigging, carp, and gunnery for all advanced navy missions except defeating brigands. All of these missions contribute to player rating and experience in the specific puzzle and pay a wage relative to the player's performance.

  • Navigate with the navy. (Requires a subscription on subscription oceans or a pirate badge or other rank badge on doubloon oceans.)
  • Puzzle with the navy. (Allows you to bilge, sail, rig, carpent or gun.)
  • Battle brigands with the navy. (Requires narrow experience in navigation, a subscription on subscription oceans or a pirate badge on doubloon oceans.)

On the Pollywog

Note: All of these missions (except the last one) contribute to player rating and experience in the specific puzzle and pay a set wage.

  • Learn to Bilge.
  • Learn to Carpent.
  • Learn to Rig
  • Learn to Sail.
  • Play with Swords!
  • Get ready to Rumble!
  • Learn about your items. Only available until mission is completed. Teaches about the trade interface, awarding a "starter-color" bandana. It will only give you one bandana no matter how many times you take the mission.

Miscellaneous

  • Defeat the skeletons. (Requires a standing of renowned or higher in sword fighting, an experience level of narrow or higher in sword fighting, 100 poe on hand, a group of skeletons to currently exist somewhere in the ocean, and an item in your booty panel which the skellies can take if you lose the battle.)
  • Defeat the zombies. (Requires a standing of renowned or higher in rumble, an experience level of narrow or higher in rumble, 100 poe on hand, a group of zombies to currently exist somewhere in the ocean, and an item in your booty panel which the zombies can take if you lose the battle.)
  • Pillage with a crew.
  • Claim your inheritance. (This is only available for purchasers of the box edition of the game.)
  • Get Loot for yer home! (This is only available until you place furniture in your home. It will only give you one slatted crate, one bedroll and one pet rat no matter how many times you take the mission. It is only available if you are on your home island and your home is a house.)
  • Get yer portrait painted! (Requires that you be on an island with a palace.)
