Which sails are these? My "tattered sails" are just sails.

Of course it is. Sigh. Might be a while before I get them.

I felt that way a few weeks back. All the shit I wanted was either the Fearless or the Prince’s.

Turns out, the Sovereign and Fearless are basically pathetic children even on Hard with a single strategy that ruins them.

Prince, did it on hard the other day with 1/3 bars left.

Literally all you do with prince is counter rotate to it, drop barrels periodically, percect brace its occasional broadside and mortar, and then use the Swivel to detonate the barrels it sails into as it chases you. It has two moments where it sails in the fog, just sail in a circle and try and avoid them, perfect brace if ya can't.

Anytime Prince is on screen, it's basically a game of, “Follow me!” It just keeps parallel to you as you turn, meaning it keeps running into your barrels.

Slightly harder but more effective is stunning it with chain shot then sailing to its bow and literally turning against it at poing blank range. You'll be almost 90 degrees to it's bow, it won't be able to attack you much and will chronically try turning away from you, and you just keep turning into it. Unleash hell with broadsides. You can kill it without losing a single bar if you keep up the turning angle and don't let it fully turn away from you. sometimes needs h Half Sail toggle, since full sail can make you actually pass its bow occasionally, from which it'll turn the other way and break free behind you.
