Ghost Ship Help

[Mountainmanmad]

How the heck do I beat the ghost ship? I camped at a landmark and a flying ghost ship appeared. I figured I have to destroy the green orbs connected to it, but after that? Do I just keep hitting the hull of the ship? I keep dying really easily to it, and when I use the broomstick my character keeps glitching.

any advice?

Use the magic carpet, it has all the perks of the broomstick without costing any mana, so you can take your time and hover without worrying (it's a mid-quest reward for a desert quest called "Flames in the Sand" I believe) or get another flying mount like the dragon (a quest found in the volcanic area) or the griffin (there's a lute found in the snow area that has griffin feathers on it- play this on "griffin peak" while looking at the flying griffin).

One thing I'm fairly certain on from my few encounters with the ghost ship is that it doesn't seem to take damage when it's far away from you- I was only able to damage it when it was close to me, and I don't think I had a flying mount at the time, which meant I had to wait for it to swing by and do itsy-bitsy bits of damage at a time. Doesn't work well.

But in the air, that's got to be a different story.

I've not beaten the ghost ship myself yet and don't know about how damage works, but hopefully this'll help with getting and sticking to it at least!

Just err sunk? one, hit the globes for extra damage ( I think) then just hit it with all you got arrows, spells, do fly bys with muscet and carpet, just hit it and will go down leavin you with a chest with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ loot.
