Sometimes you might not be able to find players for PvP within the specified time for the event. If that happens, the event can also be played in a PvE mode.
Winning these events allows you to unlock the extremely valuable Manufactories. These unlocks allow you to generate a passive income of Pieces of 8. You can use your Pieces of 8 on the Black Market and become the ultimate pirate.
How do Hostile Takeovers Work
As the name suggests, Hostile Takeover events require you to take over a specified place. This place will generally surround an Island or body of water.
To take over the location, you will need to take down AI enemies and the real players within the area. The winner of the event is decided by who takes down the most enemies within the event’s time. Killing other players taking part in the event will limit the number of enemies they might take down.
Do keep in mind that the event is completely combat-focused. Having upgraded and strong ships is a must in events like this, as they can greatly increase your chances of winning. Take over the areas and get yourself a passive way to earn Pieces of 8, the currency used in Black Markets.
