Although progressing through the many commendations and challenges this game has on offer won’t nab you any extra abilities, it will earn you some fancy new threads that will allow you to show off your fashion sense.

As important as keeping up appearances is on the high seas, sometimes situations call for a less fashionable approach. For instance, if you plan to be a stealthy pirate and stow away on another player’s ship, then you’d be better off leaving your expensive new boots back on your own ship and go barefoot.

The reason for this is simple: not wearing any shoes will make your pirate’s footsteps noticeably quieter than if they were, meaning that you can sneak aboard and move around with less chance of being detected.

If you plan to do this, it’ll also be in your best interest to remove a peg leg if you’re wearing one since they also make a distinctive sound against the wooden deck. Don’t worry, your pirate won’t get any splinters.

Likewise, avoid wearing luminous outfits to make you even harder to spot in dark coerners.
