La Dama Negra Ac4 How To Beat And

The Jackdaw should always be on the move while keeping a fair distance away to prevent being sandwiched.

Introduction Ubisofts Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag is undoubtedly one of the best pirate simulators in recent years.

Every pirate game needs challenging pirates and ships to fight and plunder.

In Sid Meiers Pirates, we get to fight famous named pirates such as Henry Morgan and Blackbeard.

In AC4, there are legendary ships that appear after conquering specific forts, and they can spell death even for the most seasoned seafarer.

In this guide, tips and tactics will be discussed on how to beat and destroy the five legendary ships in the game.

Battle Preparations Even though it might be possible to defeat the legendary ships without the Jackdaw being fully upgraded, it is strongly recommended to do so for improved survivability.

It is important to note that unlike normal ships, the legendary ships cannot be boarded nor touched, they must be destroyed and sunk.

It is therefore not possible in any legit way to add these prized ships to your fleet.

Before engaging any of the legendary ships, it is crucial and strongly advised to fully upgrade the Jackdaw.

At the very least, the ship must have the Elite Hull upgrade for better armor and the ability to negate any damage taken from ramming enemy vessels.

The upgrade plan can be found at the underwater San Ignacio Wreck (378, 769) in a chest.

Rewards Other than being able to flaunt your e-peen to your pirate friends after defeating all the legendary vessels, you will also receive 20,000R per victory, the Speed Ram attack, and become the Devil of the Caribbean.

This is an achievement worth 40 points if you are on the Xbox 360One, or a Silver trophy if you are on the PlayStation 34.

HMS Prince The HMS Prince, a Royal naval ship, is located southeast of Navassa fort, once conquered.

It is generally considered as the easiest legendary ship to tackle and recommended as the first one to challenge.

The HMS Prince is akin to a repainted Man-O-War, except with better maneuverability and equipped with a stronger offense and defense.

The enemy vessel will try to keep a distance away from the Jackdaw and bombard it with its mortars.

Thus, the key is to keep as close as possible, using chain shot to slow it down and ramming it whenever possible.

It is best to fight the HMS Prince at its rear position to prevent it from using its mortars.

Circling around it, using broadside shots while dodging the mortar bombardments is viable as well.

HMS Fearless and Royal Sovereign If you are able to face the HMS Fearless and Royal Sovereign one at a time, they would be the two easiest legendary ships to beat.

However, the bad news is that they are a pair of inseparable twins that need to be tackled at the same time.
