Ability Point (AP) Distribution

Brawlers
For a basic, regular DEX Brawler, you should keep your DEX at your level or lower. However, remember that you must have 20 DEX by level 10 to become a Pirate.
Level 10 : DEX = 20
Level 25 : DEX = 25 (or less)

The rest of your points go into STR.

Gunslingers
For Gunslingers, you shouldn't have much of a problem becoming a Pirate. The main stat is DEX and the secondary stat is STR. Your STR should be your level or lower, depending on the amount of STR gear you can get ahold of.
Level 10 : STR = 10
Level 25 : STR = 25

Where do I go to become a Pirate?

To become a Pirate, you need to have twenty (20) DEX and be level 10. Head over to Henesys and walk to the right. Once you get to the map heads to Ellinia, in the bottom right there will be a portal that will lead you to Nautilus Port. Go into the portal and make your way to the whale-looking submarine. Once inside, make your way to the right until you see a doorway with an up arrow on top of it. Go in and make your way to the far left portal. Enter that far left portal and you should see Kyrin. Talk to her and she'll advance you to Pirate if you meet the correct standards.

I updated the Pirate Database a bit.

Please tell me if there are any videos or any kind of information you would like to see about Pirates in general.

Yeh, where do you get the Crocell Gloves and Crocell Boots?
For that matter, are they even out yet in GMS? The patch last year, adding astaroth and the bunch said they were, but I cannot find where to get them from any reliable source.

Depends, your dex (including dex from equips) should be equal to your level for every 5-10 level intervals.
eg.
from lv30-34 Dex = 30
from lv35-39 Dex = 35
from lv40-44 Dex = 40
and so on

Quick question in the Buccaneer vs. Corsair video. Why are they getting so much experience from the kill. I think the skele gave them something like 9500000 experience. Is that a Pizza Slice or what?
