The Galleon is a Pirate AI Dreadnought. It is the second-strongest Pirate boss. Template:Ship Infobox Template

Description

Galleon is mostly brown, with a asteroid that resembles Carbon Ore sticking out on one side.

Behavior

The Galleon is a broadside ship and will try to align it's broadside at you. It also will call in Pirate ships, similarly to the Punisher.

It spawns every 70 minutes. (Any amount of player would cause it to spawn, even 1 player servers and VIP servers) - TESTED AND CONFIRMED 2/6/2022

Strategy

Stay behind or in front of the Galleon as it is a broadside ship. It is also recommended to use hull breaker ships, as the Galleon is a hull-tank with low shields. alternatively if you want to do it with little effort lure over a Decimator using a Viper it will get the job done for you. If there are few or no other pirates, the Galleon can be destroyed solo with a strong Dreadnought such as the Kraken, a Carrier, or a Super Capital.

Loot

The Galleon drops 6 Plasma Batteries and 150 Armor Scraps.

Version History

  • Disabled from spawning upon the release of the first part of Halloween 2021 for obvious reasons.
  • Re-enabled from spawning in version .74b17, albeit spawns every 54 minutes instead, with Armored Platings in the loot being changed to 150 Armor Scraps.
  • Plasma Battery amount in the loot tripled (2 --> 6) in version .74b17.
  • Disabled from spawning during Christmas 2021 event for obvious reasons, it was re-enabled a few days after the event ended.

Trivia

  • Looks like a Emperor-class Battleship from Warhammer 40k
  • Uses the old model of the Armageddon
  • Due to the fact that broadsiding AI would require a different movement pattern, the Galleon simply moves sideways to fire its spinals, which makes warping and turning very strange looking.
  • Galleon destruction can be a useful way of earning credits, since Plasma Batteries can be used for Uranium at Mega Base or credits at Pyramus, and 500 Armor Scraps can be turned in for 75000 credits. Depending on how much damage you deal you may get a good amount of Combat Rewards as well.
