3.07 Old Friends and Old Fiends

Yay! You can now stab somebody on the ground for a free kill! How brave!
Defeat all these scallywags. Now, you must follow the pig. After it and it's
delicious, mouthwatering ribs! That basically means, walk along the path.
Here, in the town square, you will meet a bunch of scallywags and an
executioner. Just slap them silly with something sharp, you know what I mean?
After they're all spitting up, a door will open. Head through and follow the
path. Take the left turn and you will see a flaming barrel. Use it to blow
open the well for a map piece. Go back and head riught. In the courtyard, there
will be a boss battle.
          _______
        _|Pequeno|________________________________________
       |This is the first boss you will have to fight     |
       |directly. Once again, I strongly suggest Will's   |
       |axes. After you run out, use Jack's grog. After   |
       |that, all you have to do is whack him a couple of |
       |times. Watch out when he jumps on roofs and starts|
       | throwing bombs.                                  |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

3.08 Trial by Tavern
--------------------
Bah, a VIP mission. Basically, beat the crap out of everyone without letting
Gibbs lose all his health. Now, this, was found by fluke. On the table with
six candles, throw some grog there and a map piece will appear at the centre
of the tavern. After the fight, Gibbs will tell you to head through the doors
and find Mr. Cotton and Marty the Dwarf. I can tell you from experience,
always follow the instructions of a smelly old drunk. When you go up the path,
you will see some pirate holding Cotton hostage. So what do you do? Fight!
After the fight, pick up the key and head on through the door. Keep going and
you will come across a bunch of riflemen taking potshots at Marty in a barrel.
Kill the pirates and Marty will warn you about El Grande, who is looking for
you. Go ahead and you will meet El Grande. Hmm, I wonder why he's called El
Grande. Actually, nevermind. I probably don't want to know. All you have to do
is get Will to throw axes at the buckets on either side of him. Go into the
next room and defeat the pirates.


3.09 Formosa Fling
------------------
Alright, now we get to play as pirates duelling with a bunch of Chinese
warriors. Defeat them and interact with the dragon statue. Continue and
repeat. Keep hopping on along and you will encounter a boss battle.
          ___________
        _|Madame Tang|____________________________________
       |She's a head-on boss battle, but she's extremely  |
       |easy. Just slapping her around will defeat her    |
       |quickly. And axes? Do it right, and she'll be gone|
       |within 8 seconds.                                 |     
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
After you defeat the rest of the guards, interact with the only icon onscreen.
More guards will come. Destroy the stands for a map piece. After the fight, go
and pick up the explosive crate, place it in front of the gate, light it up and
go through. Keep going back to the start of the level and run up to the gate.
Run back to where you fought Madame Tang and grab another explosive crate. Get
it back here and light it up and head to the cart of dragon fireworks. Progress
through the level, but look out for the bamboo spikes. They are very easy to
avoid anyways. It's the lion statues that will give a problem. They breathe
fire. So make your way through the path avoiding bamboo sticks and lion statues
that breathe fire. At the end, you will see Madame Tang up a flight of stairs,
so run up to her.


3.10 Temple Terror
------------------
Up ahead are a few warriors made of clay. What you must do is knock them into
the water at the edges of the area. There is a chest here as well, so get it.
After you're done, interact with the dragon statue. Up ahead, you get ambushed,
so be on your guard. While fighting these clowns, you should see a chest. Get
that after. Open the chest and WOW! Sword upgrade! Woo! Continue on now. Up
ahead, more clay soldiers. After you're done, break everything in the room for
a map piece and then inteact with the dragon statue. Continue on and you will
encounter Madame Tang trying to harness the power of the Dragon's Eye. What you
must do is interact with the columns at either side and disrupt the power feed.
And now, boss battle.
          ___________
        _|Madame Tang|____________________________________
       |Now there's three of her. It would be kind of hot |
       |if she weren't trying to kill you. Same tactics   |
       |as before, but more targets to spread the love    |
       |around. She will join back into one, then split up|
       |again. She has more health now, so be on your     |
       |toes. When there's a group of her, Jack's grog    |
       |works very well.                                  |     
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
After this battle, you must escape from the dragon. Run away as fast as you can
avoiding the coffins. Cut the ropes along the way to slow it down.


3.11 Stop Blowing Holes in my Ship!
-----------------------------------
At the start, you are informed of the Reversal technique. Enjoy. Now, beat the
vermin to a pulp. Next, you have to smash the support beams under Pequeno's
lackey, then grab the key after you kill him. Now head through the big doors
at the side. In the next courtyard, follow the path and smash the barricades of
boxes along the way. Grab the health chest, now turn around. See the ropes
holding the ramp up? Follow them to their support on the ground. Run up and cut
them, then make your way up the ramp. Up along the path is a stand with two
pirates on top. Cut down the stand and continue on. Right after the stand is
another incvinible crate. Find a powderkeg and break it. At the end of the dock
is a chest of gold. Don't forget that. Now, make your way up the stairs while
dodging the barrels. It's not hard, as they are pretty slow. You will have to
move quick, as the Interceptor is losing health fast. Quickly, make your way
to the men at the cannons and cut them down. Now, pick up the powderkegs and
toss them at the cannons. It will take two apiece. Now, take care of the rest
of the pirates.


3.12 Sizing Up Trouble
----------------------
This level is entirely a boss battle.
          _______
        _|Pequeno|________________________________________
       |This is the first boss battle that takes more than|
       |axes. Use grog to slow down his cannon fire and   |
       |then rush him and start attacking. Keep up at it  |
       |and he will be done soon. Occasionally, he will   |
       |climb the walls. Beware the shockwave when he     |
       |lands. However, get a powderkeg into the wall fast|
       |enough and he will take some massive damage.      |     
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 
To get the map piece here, just throw the barrel at Pequeno three times when
he's on the wall.


3.13 Viking Landing
-------------------
In this level, you must break every single stalagmite for your map piece.
These ice fools have shield, so you muse use two heavy attacks to break them,
but first, kill the one with the torch. Then, pick up the lit powederkeg and
throw it elsewhere. Another ice skeleton's face is a good place. Now, get all
those other powderkegs out of there. Remember to check the chest. Now, push
that snowball down the hill. There's a chest inside the cave at the entrance.
Make your way through now. There's an ambush in here, but also a chest of
gold. Now, there will be a split. Head up left, and roll down the snowball.
There's also a health chest, so feel free to get that too. Run across the ice
and head up the path. Here, you will have to fight a bunch of enemies and the
king's minions. Do so. Grog works well against the ice elementals. Now, use
Jack's Super Heavy Attack to cut down the king's throne. Once he's down, boss
fight.
          _______________
        _|Ice Viking King|________________________________
       |This guy's a pushover. Just keep slapping him.    |      
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 
Now, go over and interact with the wall of ice. Now, back to the iced lake.


3.14 From Frozen to Freedom
---------------------------
Alright, run down the path and... ambush! Look to the left and you will see
a mammoth frozen in the ice along with a map piece. Use grog to liberate the
map piece. The mammoth cannot be freed. Run along and you will be ambushed
again at the ice bridge. You can knock the enemies off for an instant kill.
Continue on and get the chest around the corner. Keep going and get the gold
chest. Continue. Another ambush, but with much more enemies. Keep fighting.
Defeat them and run to the edge.


3.15 The Damsel and the Dead
----------------------------
Yay! Back to unshielded unarmoured pirates! Now, show them why they need
shields. Continue along until you reach a cannon. Use it to blast a hole in the
wall up ahead. Run across the room and cut down the spider webs. In the next
area, you can knock the pirates of the ledge. Use Will's axes to take care of
the shooters in the back. Continue on and you will see a barricade with
cannons. Run towards the right, and there will be a path leading up and around
the cannons. Vut down the spider web, but beware the spiders that attack you.
Knock down the rock, go back, and head through the former barricade. Head down
a path to the left for a health chest and another invincible crate. Another
map piece is in there, so find another powderkeg up ahead and bring it back.
Up ahead is another cannon and a pirate on an unreachable platform. Have fun.
Before you can use the cannon to blast open the wall up ahead, you need to move
the rock. Interact with it to do so. Now, blast open that wall. Look out ahead.
There are partial barricades on the path with cannon windows. Avoid the cannon
fire, make your way around and slice up the firing pirates.


3.16 Sacked Without a Shot
--------------------------
Okay, now for some reason, Will is replaced by Elizabeth. God, I hate her
voice acting. Makes her sound like some whiney cad on a kid's show. Anyways,
check the chest in the area and continue on. Free the man trapped under a beam
and he will run to douse the fire. Apparently, standing still while staring at
flames douses fire. I wonder why firefighters need water. Anyways, run to the
left of the area, and fight some bad guys and save the lady. She goes to join
the man at dousing the flames. Run up to the well back in the courtyard and
interact with it. Play the minigame, and they will put out the huge fire with
one bucket. Right... now, continue on. You will meet Blacksmoke James here
(who's VA sounds closer to Barbossa than Barbossa's VA) and a map piece will be
revealed. Quite possibly the easiest map piece to find apart from the one from
the first level. Run down the docks and go into the opening on the right. Fight
through the pirates and continue on. Save the falling lady by pushing the cart
under her and kill all the pirates. Take the powderkeg and use it to blow open
the fence. Run back to where you entered the docks and get the map piece. Now
run back to the well and do the same thing to put out the new fire. Lead the
townspeople back to where you exited the docks and head right to the area you
haven't been yet.


3.17 Where There's Fire, There's Blacksmoke
-------------------------------------------
For this level, you have to run. Do so. Fight through the pirates and the dock
ahead will be blown apart. Use Elizabeth's axes to knock down the surrounding
ledges to create a path. Before you head on, look in the water to the left. See
the bouy? Light it up. There are four more in the level, light them up and you
will get a map piece. Continue on while fighting pirates and avoiding holes.
Soon, there will be side docks. Go down the first one for a grog barrel, and
two buoys on either side. Continue on and in the next turn west, there is a
buoy at the right. Continue on the docks, heading straight and you will come to
a section with a health chest. In the background is the lasy buoy. To claim
your prize, take the turn south and knock down the ledges with Elizabeth's axes
and continue on. Head up the ramp to the ship and you will encounter another
cannon minigame. Shoot the incoming boats. After this minigame, boss battle.
          ________________
        _|Blacksmoke James|_______________________________
       |Once again, slap him around, use axes, etc. He    |
       |will create huge clouds of smoke, so you must head|
       |to the lower end of the map, grab a powder keg and|
       |toss them into the smoke, where he's shooting     |
       |from. After you hit him a few times, the smoke    |
       |will lift. Repeat until dead. When he's on his    |
       |last bit of health, he throws bombs instead of    |
       |shooting. These are easy to dodge, but they do    |
       |more damage.                                      |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 

3.18 Prisoners of the Pearl
---------------------------
Fight these pirates. Soon after they're dead, a boss battle will occur.
          ______
        _|Mallot|_________________________________________
       |Quite easy, just slap him around.                 |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 
In this next area, you have to stop the Interceptor from being destroyed again.
Same tactics. Kill the cannon minders, get the keys from the two big guys, use
powderkegs to destroy cannons. After the cannons are destroyed, kill the rest
of the pirates. Enter the door to the right, pick up the health chest, and go
up the stairs. Another boss battle.
          _______
        _|Koehler|________________________________________
       |Hmm, I wondered what his name was. Slap him.      |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 
Make your way back to the brig and open up the cell. Another boss fight.
          ______
        _|Mallot|_________________________________________
       |He's harder now, so use axes against him. Look out|
       |for his big combo, as it does massive damage.     |
       |Actually, just try not to get hit at all. All his |
       |attacks hurt. During this fight, open the chest in|
       |his cell for a map piece.                         |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 

3.19 Broadsides
---------------
For this mission, it's pretty straight forward. Run up and down while killing
enemy pirates. After some fighting, you'll be on the Black Pearl. Kill the
pirates here too. Head to the right, and you'll see a switch. Hit it and it
will lower some powderkegs. Take one up the stairs and destroy the incvinible
crate for a map piece. After you defeat the pirates, boss battle.
          ______
        _|Bo'Sun|_________________________________________
       |This guy is pretty tough. Slap him around and use |
       |axes. Do enough damage and he will become stunned.|
       |Go to the lower end of the ship and access the    |
       |interaction icon. Your crew will fire a cannonball|
       |at him for some extra damage.                     |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

3.20 Sand, Sky, Rum and Gold
----------------------------
At the start you'll be attack by spiders. They're easy, so just cut through
them. Now cut your way through the vines covering the entrance to the jungle,
even though they weren't there during the cutscene. Cut your way through
spiders and vines. At the bride, you will find the big spiders. They're easy
too, so cut through them. After that, there are swinging log traps, so make
your way through there and just after them there is a spot blocked off by
vines. Cut through them and you will find a chest with a map piece. At the
creek, you will be introduced to some killing plants. DO NOT attempt to run
into these plants head first. They will destroy you. Instead, toss some grog.
There is a small alcove to the right just past them. The chest there contains
another sword upgrade! Yay! Up ahead is the treasure. Access the icon. Now you
must fight earth elementals. They're exactly the same as the ice ones, so knock
them out. But be warned, Jack's fire sword doesn't work on them. Now make your
way back to the beach. More earth elementals. Dispatch them.


3.21 Dauntless Derring-Do
-------------------------
Fight your way across the ship and kill all the pirates. Pick up the two halves
of the bell. Cut your way through these pirates and interact with the soldier
hanging off the plank for a map piece. Keep hitting Ragetti until his eye falls
out. Grab it and then go reassemble the bell. Now, survive long enough for
the redcoats to return. Go back down the stairs and access the three icons. Now
you just have to kill all the pirates.


3.22 Pirates Cursed and Even Worse
----------------------------------
From the starting point, head left and pick up the gold in the chest. Fight
your way up the path. To the left of the cannon is a chest blocked by two
rocks. You need to bring a powderkeg over to blow it open. Use the cannon to
break down the wall up ahead and keep moving. Get the chest and continue on.
Use Elizabeth's axes to take care of enemies that are unreachable. Make your
way through this area by interacting with each door at the end of each
platform. And... boss battle.
          __________________
        _|Serpente de Muerta|_____________________________
       |Just keep tossing axes at it and you'll be fine.  |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 
Run across its carcass into the cave.


3.23 The Last Shot
------------------
Kill all the pirates here. After killing them all, the mound of treasure in the
middle will have an interaction icon. Access it. You will not be curses. That
means you take half the damage than normal. Yay for curses! Make your way down
the path after Barbossa now, opening chests as you go. Fight the spiders, open
their web with your swords and loot the chests inside. To the right of the
spider web is a support ledge. Throw one of Will's axes there and a ramp will
lower. Make your way forward now. Push the rock over and check to the left of
the fire. There's a chest with a map piece there. Now keep going. Barbossa
will activate a secret tunnel in the treasure room. Follow him. In the next
room, kill all his bodyguards. After you wipe them out, you will fight
Barbossa.
          ________
        _|Barbossa|_______________________________________
       |He's got lots of health, so slap him around, use  |
       |axes whatever. He'll be down eventually. He will  |
       |occasionally grab a shield, so break it.This is   |
       |the longest boss fight in the game.               |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 

3.24 Escaping the Truth
-----------------------
Boss fights!
          _______________
        _|Chaves Brothers|________________________________
       |Same tactics as every other boss. Slap them silly.|
       |It starts with Alberto, then Benito joins in, then|
       |Celio comes in. Just kill them all. Jacks' grog is|
       |amazingly useful when you can hit all three at the|
       |same time. Pick up the keys from the three        |
       |brothers.                                         |
        ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 

Go to the front gate and there will be an explosive barrel. Pick it up and
hightail it across the docks to the other side of the fort, where you will find
another invincible box. Bust it open for a map pice. Now, head for the Black
Pearl. Use the Pearl's cannons to destroy the fortress. Once that's done,
you've beaten the game. Congrats.
