Pirate's Pact

Pirate’s Pact

Prestige: give up yer climb for Pirate Points, spend them on permanent perks, and sail again stronger. Every Pact also earns Ascension Points for a second, rarer shop.

Ye can make a pact!

Reaching the Frigate means the Pirate's Pact is ready — a permanent bonus for restarting the voyage. Find it in Captain's Quarters, under the Pirate's Pact.

Points depend on how deep the run went. Before the Windfall Charter and other bonuses.
