Each of the nine Pirates has 24 HP with zero Defense, making them extremely vulnerable to physical attacks. Focus fire on one Pirate at a time to reduce incoming damage quickly.
Battle Strategy
Physical attackers (Warrior, Thief, Red Mage) should attack normally. The Sleep spell trivializes this encounter by incapacitating multiple enemies at once. While Pirates have 35 Magic Defense, they’re still vulnerable to Sleep status.
Monitor party HP carefully. Each Pirate deals 10 damage but has only 2 Accuracy, meaning many attacks will miss. White Mages should heal anyone below 30 HP to avoid surprises from multiple hits.
After the Battle
After defeating the Pirates, Captain Bikke surrenders his ship to the Warriors of Light. This vessel allows you to sail across the ocean, granting access to Elfheim and expanding your exploration of the world map.
