WTF!? 2 pirate groups at once?

[the8anarchist]

im on level 96 of an item pirate signal goes off, red pirates show up( they also showed up on 95, persistent buggers) okay so no meowkins, go to move to the next map, had to wait pirate signal goes off again food pirates show( is disappointed with no meowkins) but seriously that can happen?

yea that happens to me a lot. It makes the item world so hard since there so higher level then everyone else

[the8anarchist]

im in a dark rosary so the pirates dont get too high plus my gig is like lvl 6800 so yeah not much stands in his way.

ive had very little luck concerning the meowkins, and on that note should i go do a treasure route item or should i just stick it out in the lvl 90 item i have now?

it just irks me cause its the last thing i need. i have the 5 other P-Flonzor parts and 41% of the X-dimension cleared, I. NEED. THAT. STUPID. PART. >.>

Well, at least you can take solace in the fact that pirates will wait an entire turn before moving if you're out of range, so even if you get a second crew on the end of second turn they won't start making a beeline towards you until turn four.

Part of the pirate-hunting strategy is to wait an extra turn if 1 set of pirates appear in case you get a double spawn
