Hello and Bonjour my good friends!
Good ol' Captain Kenneth here. Today, I have a question. See I am working on a Privateer, and have been scrolling through some of the current companions available, But I cannot decide which to leave and which to recruit. That's where I require a little help. Which Crowns companions are best for privateers?
As always, Keep on sailing!

Well I always have the brothers of Kan Po & Kobe (Keisuke Yagi & Yagyu Sanjuro) Then my privateer gets the Necromancer Pig from a quest. He is by far my highest damaging companion I have used, properly buffed of course, so everyone else gets the crown shop Inoshishi Necromancer just as soon as he is unlocked.

First, since privateers work best lurking in the rear using their crew-buffing abilities, you want most of your crew to be the more aggressive melee classes who will happily charge forward and "put the boot in" - so, buccaneers and swashbucklers. The other three classes also want to lurk in the rear, and if everybody's trying to lurk in the rear...

Second, the crown shop companions who mirror fixed companions tend to be the best, especially when they are promoted. So Wagyu Sanjuro for Kobe Yojimbo, Lucy Sterling for Sarah Steele, etc.
