A Pirate’s Deal Quest Objective

If you have played the beta version of the game, you must have noticed that this game features a massive open world to explore and no matter where you go, you need to complete the main story quests to progress forward. These quests help players unlock new abilities, upgrade their ships, and get the necessary equipment and tools. If you are looking for early-game equipment, this quest is a must.

A Pirate’s Deal is the very first quest of the game and there’s no way to avoid it. After you start your journey in a small ship with a small crew, eventually, you will encounter a shipwreck and find your way to the West Island. The quest marker will show you the way to reach West Island. This island is full of another group of pirates and you will find a Pirate Chief. Approach him, and interact with the Chief. He won’t be happy to see you but will give you the first quest of the game- A Pirate’s Deal.

Steps to Complete A Pirate’s Deal Mission in Skull and Bones


If you have been trying to complete the mission, but haven’t yet figured out how to do it, let me tell you, you have to go to a sinking cargo and get the quest items. The task is apparently easy to complete. Your crewmates will suggest you a lot of things but don’t listen to their suggestions and make your way to the east side of West Island. Fortunately, the cargo is not far away from the location. Players will get it around 500 meters away from the island.

Once you locate the destroyed Cargo, go near it and start roaming around the cargo. As you approach the Cargo, a prompt will come on your screen telling you to collect the loot from the cargo. Press the button and you will collect all the loot. Eventually, you will collect the required items for the quest: six Explosive Firearms and six Opulent Rum. Don’t need to worry about collecting them. Once you collect all the loot, the quest items will be among them.

Get back to the West Island and interact with the Pirate Chief again. It will complete your mission and, you will receive three rewards: 2x Planks, 2x Fish, and 1x Crowbar. Though the first two resources are required to survive in the game, the last one is required for the more essential task. It will help you find information about one of the most important parts of the game, Sainte-Anne.

The task is simple in A Pirate’s Deal, but the tricky part is that from the very beginning of the game, the surroundings of the game are full of obstacles. While you probably won’t find enemy ships when doing the very first quest, dangers still await in the water. The sea has sharks all over it and from the beginning, they will be one of your greatest threats to overcome. Sharks are ferocious predators and at the initial stage, you don’t have powerful weapons to fight them. When you start A Pirate’s Deal, the best weapon you have is wooden spears.

These weapons can scare them temporarily and these creatures will go away for some time, they will soon come back. So, it is not safe to stay in the water for a long time. Fortunately, you don’t need to get off the ship to collect the loot. So, collect all the loot faster and return to the West Island to complete the mission.

Next, you can progress to the next quest and get the Sainte-Anne information.

After you get the Crowbar you can now approach The Exeter Shipwreck. Once you reach close to the shipwreck, you will find an area where you need to use the crowbar to break it. Get into the broken ship and loot things. Eventually, a cutscene will start where you will reach a captain’s cabin and find Captain Rassler dead. On the table, you will find the Spyglass and a sealed envelope. Inside the envelope, the information about Sainte-Anne is given.

Pick these two items and start your new journey to make your way to Sainte-Anne, the most vital section of the game where players will unlock lots of new abilities and upgrades.

That’s all you need to know about how to complete A Pirate’s Deal quest in Skull and Bones. It is a compulsory quest to do. So there’s no way players can avoid it. This quest may seem a bit tricky, but it won’t take much time and unlocks the way to progress further through the story.
