@rattlyfob ya, when we run out of cannon balls we use hand weapons, but it is harder, and taking longer to kill it increases the chance of being sunk and losing ye plunder

If you dont miss i find it to be a lot faster

It would fit with the lore too since it sinks ships it could have bits of detritus in it that float to the surface after you fight it off.

@theroyalmanbird I think a reward would be great seeming as the thing can bloody sink you xD

@theroyalmanbird said in Give fighting the Kraken a reward:

My friends and I have encountered the Kraken several times, which I know is uncommon because some players have never seen it before at all. Getting attacked by the Kraken is fun the first couple times, but on the 5th or so time, it's basically just an annoyance that wastes time and a LOT of cannon balls. I think surviving a fight with the Kraken should get you a reward like a Kraken's chest or something, just to make it worth while and not just an inconvenience. Also, you run the risk of losing the treasure you have in a Kraken attack if you sink, so having a reward to balance the risk would be nice.

You can use pistols/sniper and sword to fight it too
