First off Pirating , pirating is far from easy in Vendetta. I may self myself gave it up due to the fact that I wanted more money then it paid. How ever However, all that aside , it has to be one of the most fun occupations to have in VO. Here are some tips to getting started that should help out you young land lubbers want'n to test yer mettle. So with out without any further adue ... Arr!

First off , you need to deiced decide what you want.* Do you want to be a purist pirate , who only takes cargo and kills unarmed traders?* Do you want to be more of a modern pirate , who take takes bribes to let traders pass with their cargo intact…* Or , will you be a hybrid mix of both?

My self Myself and many of the pirates in VO are a mix of both, we make our money mostly from taking money from traders and offering them safe passage. Or for those who do not pay we kill them and take their cargo. Keep in mind that it is vary very hard to make any money as a pirate , so it helps to have some thing something of a plan, mine . Mine was some thing something like this.

* '''Never pirate a trader more then than once in one log in'''. This helps those greedy traders from feeling like you are taking all their money and helps make sure they pay you next time.

* '''Never charge more then the ship and or cargo is worth'''. I used to have mutiple hail messages for differnt different ships my . My policy was to make my price around 5k less then than what the ship was worth so . So, for like a centa (Centaur) I would charge around 25k, where as a hog (Warthog) would be around 15k. Just get a feel for it if . If more then 1 out of every 10 people you see are running rather then than paying , you may want to think about lowering your price.* '''Never go back on a deal'''. Your You're telling people who already think you are scum that if they give you money you will let them live. They have no garentee guarantee you will , so you need to build up a rep, so . So if they ask all their little trader buddies (Traders traders are cliquy cliquey, and due to them being so rich they have many "friends") if . If you are good for your word , they will get a yes back.* '''Find a way to make your name stand out'''. Now you have some pirate pirates who do this by killing every thingeverything, kicking dogs, and biting flowers. These guys are often hated and almost never make any money. (Though there is some thing something to be said for being able to log in and kill any thing anything you want and then make the people you killed cry by peeing on their cats.) Then you have pirates that are kinda nice, ; these guys are often thought of with a warm fuzzy feeling , and people like to thank them for making the game fun. Then , you got guys like me who are known for doing any thing anything for money. Which end ends up leading me away from piracy and into other fields of work.

What ever Whatever you decide to do , make sure you have fun with it and remember it's just a game. Don't you ever forget with out : without pirates , there will never be a need for human traders , as any robotics man can make a bot who will haul cargo from point A to point B. But only a human will dare try to take on a pirate. So remember your : you're doing it to help humans keep their jobs.
