Every pirate in your crew can be assigned to one of five roles. Each role (except Mozzo) provides two team-wide bonuses based on the assigned pirate's skills. The better the pirate's relevant skills, the stronger the bonus for the whole crew.
Roles
Captain
The face of the crew. A good Captain gets you better deals at the market and attracts more fans to your games.
| Bonus | Formula |
|---|---|
| Trade Price | 50% Charisma + 25% Aggression + 25% Intuition |
| Reputation | 75% Charisma + 15% Aggression + 10% Strength |
Pilot
Your navigator. A skilled Pilot finds more loot during exploration and gets the ship moving faster between planets.
| Bonus | Formula |
|---|---|
| Exploration | 15% Stamina + 15% Steal + 60% Vision |
| Spaceship Speed | 75% Quickness + 25% Vision |
Doctor
Keeps the crew in shape. A good Doctor means faster training and quicker recovery from tiredness.
| Bonus | Formula |
|---|---|
| Training | 25% Strength + 25% Vertical + 50% Intuition |
| Tiredness Recovery | 75% Stamina + 25% Intuition |
Engineer
The technical brain. A sharp Engineer makes your weapons hit harder in space adventures and speeds up spaceship and asteroid upgrades.
| Bonus | Formula |
|---|---|
| Weapons | 25% Ball Handling + 25% Aggression + 50% Brawl |
| Upgrades | 25% Stamina + 25% Vision + 50% Intuition |
Mozzo
Entry-level crew members. Mozzos don't provide any team bonuses, but they can be promoted to any other role at any time. When a pirate is demoted from a role, they become a Mozzo again (and lose a bit of morale in the process).
How bonuses work
Each bonus starts at a base of 1.0x and scales with the assigned pirate's relevant skills. The maximum skill value is 20, so a pirate with perfect skills in the right areas can push a bonus up to 2.0x. Pirates with certain special traits can push this even further with a 25% multiplier on specific bonuses.
Tips
- When assigning a Pilot, prioritize Vision and Quickness for fast travel, or Vision and Steal for better exploration rewards;
- A Captain with high Charisma is always a good pick since it contributes to both Captain bonuses;
- Reassigning a Pilot or Engineer while travelling or upgrading will recalculate remaining durations based on the new bonus, so you can speed things up by swapping in a better pirate mid-flight or mid-upgrade.
