You get this hat by gaining Friendly reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers. You have to kill Steamwheedle Cartel goblins in order to do this. Once you get Friendly, you have to do a simple quest to kill two npcs in Booty Bay.

You also can get Bloodsail clothing for being Neutral with them.

Beware, by gaining reputation with Bloodsail Buccaneers, you will become hated and kill-on-sight for many goblins. Ratchet, Booty Bay, Gadgetzan, and Everlook will be unaccessible. Thus, you will have absolutely no access to neutral auction houses.

With TBC so close there is no point in getting this hat because as Minorou has said, you will become kill on sight.

This is especially bad for you if you plan to go to the new instance "The Caverns of Time" for Gadgetzan will most likely be the repair spot for there.

No one wants to fly all the way to Un'goro to repair even if it's with a cool hat =D

Kommentar von ace22b

There is repair spot/reagent vendor in caverns of time.

Kommentar von Minorou

Ah, another thing to note is that the goblins in the Outlands will not be affected by your reputation in Azeroth. You can be Hated with Steamwheedle Cartel and still be fine talking to goblins in the new dimension.

As an aside, if you recieve this hat it is still possible to become friendly again with the Steamwheedle Cartel. By completing the previously mentioned quest 1-2 times, you can return to neutral with the Buccaneers. After that, its just a grind fest on pirates to get back to neutral with the cartel. Long, yes, but this hat is pretty awesome, and you wont see many around.

besides, if you can kill the goblins, it isn't too difficult to kill the pirates who are MUCH weaker.

Kommentar von 9391

tydie, you say that the closest repair site near the caverns of time is in Gadgetzan. That's not true... since patch 2.0.1 caverns of time has been opened, and I've been in there and saw 4 vendors, and one of them was a repair guy. So don't give up being hated by Steamwheedle Cartel if its the caverns of time you are thinking about.. :)

Hehe, I posted befroe 2.0.1.

Ok, I have gotten many requests about this, being one of the few, (according to a blizz developer I spoke with less than 300 of us game wide (all servers)) so here is how you become a Bloodsail Admiral, and all the insane cons of doing so (so think very carefully before considering this)...
First you have to get a friendly reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers.

This is a lot more involved than you might think...In order to increase your reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, you will have to kill NPC's in Booty Bay!
If you are willing to do that, the average lvl 60 that has done Booty Bay quests is about 13k-16k of 36k HATED with the Bloodsail Buccaneers when they start.
If you kill Booty Bay Bruisers or Elites, which give the highest rep per kill (25) this means that you will have to kill 1220 Booty Bay Bruisers or Elites just to get to friendly if you started at 14,500/36,000 Hated.

At the rate of 30 an hour, it would take you over 40 hours and 40 minutes in order to farm the rep you need to get to friendly status with the Bloodsail Buccaneers.
This is obviously a HUGE sacrifice as you will end up being Hated by all 4 goblin cities, as well as the Steamwheedle cartel, who have NPC's and guards loyal to them in many places.

Until you repair your reputation with the Steamwheedle Cartel, Booty Bay, Ratchet, Gadgetzan, and Everlook, you will be attacked on site by any/all guards in these towns, and going into a building in any of those 4 towns will also make guards spawn continuously.
Being hated with these towns means that you will not be able to get or complete quests that start, end, or involve a npc in one of these towns. Some of these quests include the following.

- Cannot fly into or out of Booty Bay, Un'Goro Crater, Gadgetzan, or Flame Crest safely, as both the Flight Path Masters are guaded by at least one Bruiser, and will attack you as they are loyal to Steamwheedle.
- Unable to use the boat from Ratchet to Booty Bay Safely.
- Unable to participate in the weekly fishing contest as you will not be able to turn in the tastyfish to win the competion, get money for the extra fish, or turn in any of the rare fish.

If you're willing to destroy your reputation with the goblin cities just to get a hat and the Blood Parrot, and also willing to sacrifice the time and money to repair your rep, Then you need to know how to get the quest...

Once you finally get to Friendly status with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, you need to go south of Booty bay to the middle of the three Pirate ships there and talk with Fleet Master Firallon. He will then give you the quest Avast, me harties! This quest sends you into the heart of booty bay. At the top of the Inn building, you will have to kill Baron Revilgaz, and Fleet Master Seahorn, which will obviously spawn guards as soon as you attack them.

The reward for this quest is the Bloodsail Admiral's Hat, which you can use to summon your Blood Parrot. If you get too far away from a bruiser, they will stop running after you and pull out their guns, and that means game over. They will not put away their guns once they pull them out for at least 5 minutes. The problem with their guns is that they knockback like an ogre hammer. And they will keep firing, which can and will make you go from one side of the town or area to the other.
This makes killing the bruisers or the leaders next to impossible, so you have to do this all without getting far enough away the bruisers break out their guns instead of running after you!

It is not a mission to be taken lightly, as you must destroy your reputation which will take many hours to do so, and countless more to restore your reputation...
Realistically it will take at least a week or two to farm the reputation to do the quest, and at least a month or so to recover your reputation with the goblin cities afterward so that you can quest, help guildes...and go around the world of azeroth without getting attacked, caught in nets, and killed.

Good luck!

Kommentar von Creature

I recieved mine after about several weeks of on and off grinding of the Booty Bay guards. The farming of the guards becomes very boring and repetitive after a short time and be prepared to pay money for repair costs as the guards have a tendency to appear from no where and gang up on you. I suggest you recruit a friend to help you out every so often as to stop the boredom. Being hated with steamwheedle is a small price to pay for this great item as the steamwheedle faction is useless in Outland. Good luck me harties!

im a 19 twink warrior, and I just got this.

As you can imagine it makes me happy :]

Kommentar von 39757

Did it in 2 days (under 10 hours total), affliction warlock and a paladin. Wasn't really hard or that massive of a task and its fun to have free ganking in Booty Bay while doing it :)

Anyway, get a friend to do it with or its hopeless - and 40 hours is way, way more than most people will spend on it :)

Kommentar von 10230

Although most people aren't that much into the game that they'll be such completists as me, I decided that I'd share this information anyway, maybe someone needs it. :)

I've farmed for this hat with a troll mage that I had pre-tbc and got it over a weekend, but since I skipped most steamwheedle cartel-quests in my low levels I'd have to get my goblin rep back and do them if I wanted them done, so that'd leave me with farming the booty bay guards another time (going for exalted with everything) and that would just be too much, so I skipped it with that character. Now that WotLK has been announced I've got my determination started again and started planning to get this done with my Death Knight, so here's what I'm planning to do:

1. Do all quests related to the Steamwheedle Cartel in any way, removing any means of lowering Bloodsail Buccaneer reputation by means of doing quests in the future.

2. Farm the pirate ships south of Booty Bay for First Mate Hat http://www.wowhead.com/?item=2955 and Parrot Cage (Hyacinth Macaw) http://www.wowhead.com/?item=8494 since these are very valuable collector-stuff and the mobs dropping them are Bloodsail pirates, meaning killing them after the Bloodsail Buccaneer rep-farming process will forever be forbidden.

3. As I mentioned before you'll want to complete all the Steamwheedle Cartel quests, this doesn't exclude the fishing contest quests (http://www.wowwiki.com/Stranglethorn_Fishing_Extravaganza for more info), if you've not decided that you absolutely want to do every single quest and don't mind never having a maximized fishing skill, ignore the rare fishes and just win the contest once, picking the Hook of the Master Angler http://www.wowhead.com/?item=19979 as a reward (you can skip that too if you are a druid).

4. Time to get those pesky goblins, after doing all the Steamwheedle Cartel quests you will obviously be 0/36000 Hated with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, so you're in for a long farm. After killing 2520 of them, you've gone as far as killing guards will get you. Head over to Fleet Master Firallon http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=2546 south of Booty Bay, he'll have a nice pirate outfit for you (consisting of a pair of boots, a belt, pants and a chestpiece), together with a quest, to kill the 2 leaders of Booty Bay. Now you have 2 options, one is to get to closest flightpath and fly into Booty Bay, which will drop you off quite close to the 2 leaders, Baron Revilgaz http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=2496 and Fleet Master Seahorn http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=2487. What you also can do is to just run up to them through Booty Bay, either corpserunning a couple of times or killing your way up there, either way is fine, just make sure you kill those two. After delivering the quest you will get your shiny Bloodsail Admiral's Hat http://www.wowhead.com/?item=12185, congratulations!

5. Now you're done with the main purpose of killing goblins, but if you're going for a nice reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, you're not quite done yet! As of now it isn't confirmed if it is possible to reach Exalted with your pirate friends, but there is a way to reach Revered, that's for sure. Head over to the Badlands and kill the goblin named Jazzrik http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=9179, each time you kill him you will gain 1 reputation with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, potentially taking you to all the way up to 999/1000 Exalted, but as I mentioned earlier that isn't confirmed yet.

Kommentar von 10230

Continuing the last post...

6. So you've maximized your Bloodsail Buccaneers reputation, then you've done something really incredible! Since you surely wouldn't want to throw away such a thing, but surely wouldn't mind being able to use the neutral auction house and the flight paths without getting your face owned by a mass of guards, we're now going to start the process of restoring your Steamwheedle Cartel reputation, without hurting the Bloodsail Buccaneers reputation at all! If you are not playing a hunter, head over to Zangarmarsh (alternatively the auction house) and get your hands on a bunch of Glowcaps http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24245, use them to buy Tallstalk Mushrooms http://www.wowhead.com/?item=25548 from Mycah http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18382 in Zangarmarsh, this requires you to be at least Friendly with the Sporeggar, but that is a walk in the park compared to what you've done so far, believe me (http://www.wowwiki.com/Sporeggar for more info).

7. Time to get that Steamwheedle Cartel reputation up, finally. This is where all your optional achievements plays a part, to increase the reputation, you have to do the quest Zapped Giants http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=7003 in Feralas, this quest wants you to kill a few sea giants roaming the waters along the Feralas coast, the first time you do this quest you will get 350 reputation with all the Steamwheedle Cartel factions, after you've completed it the repeatable quest Again With the Zapped Giants http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=7725 will unlock, granting you only 25 reputation per turn-in, but being a shorter quest than the first version. As of now, this quest is believed to be able to take you to 999/1000 Exalted with all Steamwheedle Cartel factions, and the opposite is yet to be proved, it is however 100% sure that you can get more than enough reputation to be able to interact with the Steamwheedle Cartel npc's as any other player, and you can also reach honored for the 10% vendor discount. Now you might ask, why did you want me to get the Hook of the Master Angler, and what in the world are all these Tallstalk Mushrooms for!? The answer of that is simply, to make killing the giants easier. The Hook of the Master Angler effectively increases your farming speed by making you 25% faster underwater (the place where you will find most of the sea giants) and also gives you unlimited underwater breathing, and the Tallstalk Mushrooms shows you the sea giants on your minimap for 60 minutes per mushroom, so it is a very cheap way to decrease the amount of tedious hours of sea giant farming.

Well, that's about it, I will attempt this myself as soon as my Death Knight is level 80 and have finished all the Steamwheedle Cartel quests, and have already gathered the Glowcaps, you'll probably hear from me if I succeed, and to all of you who are planning to attempt this (although I doubt many are dedicated enough to do so), good luck, fellow completists! :)

What is the easy'st way to get the rep back whit BB ? it is funny to get the Bloodsail gear but i wonna go back whit my rep so i be in BB and the other city's agen... so is there a good and easy way ?

Kommentar von Nubslap

Unfortunately, the only way to get your rep with the Steamwheedle Cartel is to complete the 4 repeatable quests given by random quest givers outside the goblin towns, or the quest Zapped Giants.

Everlook: Bronn Fitzwrench - 40x Runecloth 4x Coal For each hand in.
Booty Bay: Bloodsail Traitor - 40x Silk Cloth 4x Coal For each hand in.
Ratchet: Mupsi Shacklefridd - 40x Linen Cloth 4x Empty Vial For each hand in.
Gadgetzan: Rumsen Fizzlebrack - 40x Mageweave Cloth 4x Strong Flux For each hand in

Each hand in rewards 500 reputation with the corresponding town that the quest is for, and provides a 250 rep splash to all other goblin towns. These repeatable quests will carry you all the way back to Neutral rep.

If you wish to retain your friendly rep with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, and become friendly again with the Steamwheedle Cartel, you will have to repeatably do the quest Zapped Giants which provides 350 rep to all goblin towns for the first hand in, and 25 rep for each repeat. Of course this is not ideal, as it would take 1440 (36000/25) hand ins to simply get out of hated.

I found it easiest repeating the Ratchet quest requiring linen cloth which sold for a mere 14s a stack, making it remarkably cheap to regain my rep.

Now for some mathcraft:
For me, after attaining friendly rep with the Bloodsail Buccaneers, i was 0/36000 hated with booty bay, and ~19000/36000 with other goblin towns.
42000 rep required to regain neutral status with Booty Bay from 0/36000 hated.
42000/500 = 84 hand ins which supplies 21000 rep to other goblin towns
Mats wise:
3360 (168 stacks) of cloth
336 (17 stacks rounded up) of random trade goods

An ideal solution is to repeat Booty Bays' repeatable of Silk cloth and Coal, as not only will this take you out of hated with Booty Bay, but the rep splash will take you out of hated with all 3 other goblin towns. The downside is the cost of silk cloth, which can vary and really add up. However, if you no longer wish to get rolled every time you fly to a goblin town (Some of them have a safe landing), this is a must.

I dont know if it has been said yet but...
For those of you out there who collect rare pets but dont want to be hated with booty bay and the steam wheedle cartell
The Hyacinth Macaw parrot drops from blood sail mobs and has a miniscule drop rate at best so once you are done killing booty bay guards to get this pet, you can turn around and farm the blood sail mobs for the parrot to get your rep back
Given the low drop rate of the parrot you may be able to grind all the way back up to neutral/friendly with SwC
You may want to consider getting the worg and smolderweb pets before or after you decide to do this grind tho as they are only obtainiable thru a quest w/ affialites of SwC

Edit: If your a nice person try to avoid killing the common quest givers if your grinding the rep, a small gesture of kindness may go a long way

Kommentar von 119078

Can anyone confirm or deny whether or not a twink can get this item. People seem to be arguing but only one person can say they have from experience. Wowhead says it's a level 60 quest, but does not say the required level like it does for many other quests.

I got my hat today. It was totally worth the time and effort. If my screen gets approved you can see a tauren Bloodsail Pirate ^^

Currently, im deciding how will i get my rep back. Maybe i will just stay hated lol

Kommentar von 143003

Despite what others have been saying, I think this is not overly difficult to do. This is a rough guide based on how I and a couple of friends got the hat.

Myself and 2 of my friends managed it in less than a week, without too much hassle. Obviously it takes some grinding, but it's nothing too heavy.

At the time I was a level 53 undead shadow priest, and I had 2 friends with me, a level 70 undead subtlety rogue and a level 43(I think) blood elf discipline priest. Anyone who would be within range for xp and is in the group will get rep (25 per kill). At first it was easy enough, the rogue (I'll call him Bill) tanked and did the damage, whilst myself and the other priest (I'll call him Fred) healed him. Before the bruisers become hostile, it is easier to do as you can repair in Booty Bay itself, and not have to go elsewhere.

Later it is more difficult due to the possibility of aggroing more than you mean to, but not impossible. The easiest place to grind is northern entrance, towards Grom'Gol. There are 2 bruisers outside which Bill could take as long as we were healing him. There are 2 patrols in the tunnel that can be taken separately or at the same time, depending on your preference. Then there are 2 at the other end of the tunnel, and a patrol who walks from where the buildings start on the left, to the docks on the right. With Fred and myself healing him, Bill could take them all at once. As for the quest to kill the 2 guys in Booty Bay, if you are horde this is easy. You can fly in via the flight master, then just run up the ramp and kill the people as quickly as possible, ignoring the bruisers. You will probably die and have to use the Spirit Healer, but it is worth it. =D

Some final tips:
- If there is a group of you doing it, make sure to all stand close together, and don't get too far from the bruisers you are fighting, or they will pull out their guns, which is bad. They have a knockback effect which can keep you from moving at all if it keeps hitting.

-If you decide to bring someone along to tank, anyone not tanking gets a free warning if their threat is coming to a dangerous level. The bruisers will use their nets on someone if they get enough threat, but will not actually attack the player until they have more threat (or I think that's how it works anyway). So if the healer or dps gets netted, they can hit their threat reducing ability before actually taking damage.

-If you are using a low level healer like we did, the aggro range will be huge, so make sure the healer stays way back at the start of the fight, and let the tank build up threat before moving in and sitting practically on top of the fighters before doing any healing, to ensure that the bruisers don't use their guns.

-Faction Insignia can be very useful if you need to get out of a net sharpish. They're not essential but it doesn't hurt to bring them along.

That's pretty much all I learned when I was grinding, I just wanted to share it with anyone trying to get the hat.

Good luck everyone!

Kommentar von Elica

Everyone is making this out to be so hard, but as a lvl70 enhancement shaman I've gotten from 20k hated to almost friendly in about 7 hours. I can take up to 5 guards at the same time, if I have my cooldowns ready.

I did die a few times to be honest. Mostly when I tried to massacre the entire Inn (Succeeded 3 times)

Kommentar von 145315

I Just got mine today. It took about 4 days of grinding, (Not 4 days /played) it was actually fairly easy.
Anyways, All 4 cities have me on KoS now, and I have less than 10,000 rep with all of them, and have the lowest rep possible with Booty Bay.

Kommentar von 152566

To me this is so worth it. I have had mine for a bit and i love it. Its like your in some private club. The key to getting this is having good people there and know were to go. Being 70 it was somewhat ez but it still took some time. One you need lots of cc, at some points more than 50 guards will spawn. when i went there we had 2 heals(me included) 2 locks a mage and a full s1 dps warrior to "tank the" he just got all them on him so the mage and the locks would not die so much. Two you need to know were to go. There are points in boot bay were guards don't spawn aka fisherman's hut lower level off inn ect. If you can get in a good rotation moving from place to place you should be able to get it done fast. Even if you are super high in hated you go down fast because of the vast amount of guards u kill at once. Once u can get the quest get it. I left before i got this and it sucked. I had to drag my body up to the guys u have to kill just to finish this it was hard. In the end its worth it because all u get with the goblin towns is a flight path and most are outside the town so it does not matter. hope this helps

Kommentar von Nargil

Just did the grind for this hat solo on my affliction warlock. She had never done any BB quests so hadn't lost any bloodsail rep, so it took less than 5 hours of fairly causal farmings over 2 days .

I managed to do this in 2 hours, and from the other posts, it seems like we've been pretty quick :O

I am an arms warrior, I had a 70 disc priest and a 60 enhancement shaman (off-healing and totem throwing).

from 35k/36k in Hated to 1k/6k in Friendly

The tip is:
Let the shaman run in when he is hostile, he'll aggro a !@#$load, you grab aggro, pop SS+WW+Cleave and repeat. If you get bored or pull too many, pop retaliation.

If you want to do this extremely fast, do as I. Bring a skilled+geared arms warrior and a shaman+healer+more who wants to come.

Have fun!

Kommentar von 170332

So I read a thread about it on the forums and I've always wanted to do the grind. Took me 6 hours of Goblin bashing. Solo.

It wasn't really hard, about 480 goblin guards had to be killed. As when I started to farm rep I was 33000/36000 hated with the Bloodsail Bucaneers.

I recommend doing it, the suit and hat looks REALLY pro, even on a Male Draenei. and the Goblin rep is very easy to get up again. Also, you get one achievement completed when WotLK comes!

Edit: Nevermind, got 3.0.2 PTR working and used it, doesn't teach you how to summon but instead allows you to summon right away when you put on the hat and the parrot is despawned when hat is removed.

Me, an enhancement shaman, and a guild mate who is a resto shaman did this in about 3 hours. Really, once you get to hostile with Booty Bay it becomes really easy, as long as you have a healer. Gaurds will spawn frequently to attack you. After you kill enough they will stop spawning in that one area for a few minutes. Rest up and move on. Killing npcs like vendors and quest givers spawn more guards. While it will inconvenience some it will speed up your process.

Don't kill the auctioneers unless you don't mind being flagged for pvp.

Kommentar von uselessx

Had a raid a few days ago on booty bay on Xavius realm EU. I didn't realize what the players where doing, but i joined in 'cause it looked fun. After ~4-5hrs of killing guards and alliance party crashers i was on my way to get my fancy new pirate hat.

Few problems i have now is not being able to use any cross-faction AH, 'cause i'm fully hated by all steamweddle folk. I guess i'll need to make an alt just for that.

Another issue is when landing at gadgetzan those nasty wee goblin folk at the flight master attack me.... and no more noggenfogger elixers...

still worth it though for the 'proper' (non deviate fish) pirate look.

Kommentar von Silhac

Just acquired this hat today, and I have a tip for those who managed to achieve friendly with the Bloodsail, but are having difficulties with the quest to slay the Baron and the fleetmaster.

I corpse hopped to the inn without my gear on, and found the closest place to rez that is safe inside the inn through trial and error. This safe spot is just below the stairs leading to the Baron and the fleetmaster. Here you can pull the civilians and the guards to clear the room of any distractions. Since some guards spawn due to the targets being alive, it is best to ignore them, and pull the baron and the fleetmaster seperately, kill them both, then run off the mast on their platform into the water and swim away. Now all you need to do is go collect your well-deserved hat.

Hope this tip helps ye prospective pirates,

Repairing your Reputation

Once you're done and you want to repair your reputation with Steamwheedle, Gadgetzan, Booty Bay, etc... here are some approaches that will work.

You shouldn't lose Bloodsail rep except where noted in case you want to keep your rep with them for whatever reason.

Different approaches include...

... doing repeatable quests in Dire Maul (fastest method)

The Gordok Ogre Suit

... do repeatable quests in west Feralas

Zapped Giants
Fuel for the Zapping (-250 Bloodsail)

... do the OOX quest series

Find OOX-09/HL! (-250 Bloodsail)
Find OOX-17/TN! (-250 Bloodsail)
Find OOX-22/FE! (-250 Bloodsail)
Rescue OOX-09/HL! (-350 Bloodsail)
Rescue OOX-17/TN! (-350 Bloodsail)
Rescue OOX-22/FE! (-350 Bloodsail)
An OOX of Your Own (-500 Bloodsail)

... Grind on Venture Co., Pirates and Bandits. (rep varies) eg:

Venture Co.
Southsea
Wastewander
Save the Wastewander Water Pouch they drop for when you're neutral with Gadgetzan again for quest: Water Pouch Bounty

... Turn-in cloth

Mending Old Wounds (-500 Bloodsail)
Traitor to the Bloodsail (-500 Bloodsail)
War at Sea (-500 Bloodsail)
Making Amends (-500 Bloodsail)

... or just turn on the Bloodsail and slaughter them en mass. Obviously you'll lose Bloodsail rep with this route. You might even luck out and get the incredibly rare (1:5000 drop) Hyacinth Macaw out of it.

Kommentar von 196061

It might be easier to obtain this item on a Death Knight seeing as they have bypassed all the Booty Bay quest and it would be a minimal rep grind to get to friendly with the Bloodsail Buccaneers. My death knight is already level 75 and is neutral with the Steamwheedle Cartel. Though it might be easier if one started a Death Knight and avoided all quests from goblins.

with the achivement with this hat, the pleasure of a new pet and, well, farming, this is a MUST for every addicted wow player...

also there is a title

Kommentar von 123519

Worst mistake I ever made was answering someone's "LF Healer for Bloodsail Admiral title". Group lasted about an hour - just long enough to make me deep into hated with the Cartel. By the time I decided to finish it, I was lvl 80, and the Winter's Veil achievements are here. I need to get to the 225 cooking quest, but cant... Its in Gadget and the guy who gives it to you is a part of the Cartel. As others have noted, the rep grind at lvl 80 is 1 mob for 1 rep and as I am 29k into hated with Gadget, thats a lot of grinding.

My sincerest advice to anyone concidering this grind is to think carefully... You will:

- Lose flight points at Gadget, Booty Bay, Ratchet and Everlook.
- Lose Neutral Auction House access as the AHs are in these towns
- Lose access to 225 cooking quest, as well as others
- Find it difficult to get to CoT unless you have the rep to port
- Have trouble doing other seasonal achievements that require you to go to these towns.
+ Get an achievement
+ Get a cool hat
+ Get a title

IMO, you will lose more then you gain... its really over rated, and not worth the effort.

Before you concider opening a ticket, Ill post the reply I got to mine:

Petition: A few weeks ago, I saw someone advertising for the bloodsail admiral title. I thought it would be cool so I joined the group. A little while later, the guy left the group, and I am unsure of what to do now to get this title and achievement. As apart of this issue, I am unable to get the quest to get cooking above 225. The quest giver is in Gadget, and bashes me when he sees me. How do I get the cooking quest so I can lvl my cooking?

Answer: We encourage players to consider the weight of their actions while adventuring in Azeroth. Luckily, there is an in game method to repair your reputation with the Steamwheedle Cartel. I would advise you ask your fellow players on the forums for more details about that, as Game Masters are unable to offer game hints of any kind.

So easy to get as a DK. You can easily pull 10+ Bruisers at a time, and as long as no goblin pulls out his gun, you're golden.

Be in frost presence, have some tanking gear, and AE. Unholy helps but is by no means required; I did it as 27/44/0.

Kommentar von Rillarri

Well i can attest that you still keep everything you get when completing the quest after you get your Steam Cartel rep back and become hated with the Bloodsails again.

For getting your rep back with Steam Cartel the fastest, although not the cheapest, way is to do the cloth turn in quests for the Steam Cartel rep. The list is here http://www.mortalken.com/reputation/steamwheedle/ starting with the Linen for Ratchet, then Silk for Booty Bay, Mageweave for Gadgetzand and then Runecloth for Everlook.

Doing these turn in gets overflow with the other reps so following this process by the time you reach neutral with Everlook you will be honored with ratchet and Booty Bay and within 500 points of being friendly with Gadgetzan.

Kommentar von 170332

Next patch (3.0.8) the "reputation decrease if the mob is gray" system will be gone. This means that all the Southsea pirates near ratchet gives 2,5 rep to the Steamwheedle Cartel, and the Venture Trade Company (Venture Co.) goblins in Stranglethorn Vale will give 5 rep per kill. This makes it much easier to farm your rep back without hurting your Bloodsail reputation.

The goblin guard bruisers in Booty Bay will also level up.

Kommentar von 177317

While losing rep with Azeroth goblins does NOT affect your rep with any outland Goblins, be prepared to run into cartel goblins randomly throughout Azeroth. I was grinding Silvermoon City rep and found that the NPCs in Mudsprocket, Dustwallow Marsh were part of the cartel. I was able to fly into the city but once I was there I couldn't fly out.

Kommentar von 152200

As of this post (3.0.8) guards are level 77 and reward 25 rep at level 80.

Kommentar von alcalown

is it possible for a lvl 19 to get this hat? By having a lvl 80 killing the gaurds or something?

Kommentar von 213403

I just figured I'd try this on my new DK.

I'm at level 79 and getting +25 rep per Bruiser kill. Anyone can confirm if going to level 80 drops the rep gain to +5 per or not?

Kommentar von Wisdomsword

Your either friendly with one and hated with another

Kommentar von ghost9er9er9

One of the updates made it so mobs give same rep regardless of level... e.g. killing ratchet guys on the beach you used to get 2 rep if they were grey and 5 if green+. Now you get 5 no matter what
I haven't checked with Booty Bay guys and also if I remember correctly the levels were bumped up to 77.

Kommentar von 108694

As a level 80 hunter this isn't too bad to do. Yeah, the grind is tedious, but I kind of actually like the idea of being the bad one for once. I've been killing goblins for about 2 hours now, & am 3 bars away from being not hated. I'm using my tanking pet & Lifeblood (heal you get from Herbalism) to heal up. At one point, my Druid friend was grinding with me & his AoEs were massively helpful. The only downside is that the level 30's & 40's are quest givers, so you probably will end up annoying people at some point. As noted above, be careful not to kill the auctioneer or bankers, because you will end up getting flagged for PvP. We had a blood elf mage gank us a couple of times before we completely owned him & our PvP timer ran out. The quicker you finish the quest, the better off you'll be. Just be courteous & have fun!

Kommentar von 418525

easy took me about 1houre on my deathknight. i think one of easiest achievments

Kommentar von 421952

I did not know that I earned less rep after 75 good thing i got it halfway through 75 or I would have been screwed.

Kommentar von Undeadlord

The easiest class more then often to do this grind is the Death Knight. More often then not, along the way to 80 you WILL damage your bloodsail rep. As a DK, you start with regular rep; ie RLLY close to hostile with he bloodsail. this is a huge advantage. i was able to do my entire grind in about 5 hours. GOOD LUCK! (note... the forgiving process took much longer... like 4 days if you keep at it...)

PS; before you do the grind think about it... do you REALLY wanna be antagonized by goblins when you are in their towns? its rlly annoying.

What if you delete it? Can you have it again?

Optimal Reputation Repair

For those of you looking to use as few mats as possible to repair your goblin reputation with all four factions in the most efficient manner possible, given current auction house prices, it is most cost-efficient to essentially just go in order -- turn in all the linen you need to get neutral with the first faction, all the silk to get neutral with the second, then all the runecloth to get neutral with the third, then all the mageweave to get neutral with the fourth.

I was thinking about this and whether there was any way to find a more optimal approach. The idea is that turning in cloth for one faction in addition raises rep with all the other factions as well, albeit at a smaller rate, so maybe by not maxing out each faction right away, we could save money

For each faction, one turn in yields 500 rep for that faction's particular cloth quest . That same turn in also gives 250 rep for all the others, so the problem we wish to solve is to get more than 42,000 rep with the following constraints:

* Once neutral is reached in any faction, no more turn ins for that faction can occur.

* At the end, each faction must have at least 42,000 rep (neutral).

* We want to minimize the total amount of gold spent on cloth at the AH.

To solve this problem, I wrote a MATLAB script to determine a "rep vector" whose four elements are the reputations with each faction at the end. Inside, there is simply a for loop that takes in a "turn in vector" whose elements are the number of turn ins for each faction. When rep with a certain faction exceeds 42,000, no reputation is awarded for further turn ins, which accounts for the constraint that the quest cannot be done at that point.

It goes through and allocates reputation linen first, then silk, then runecloth, then mageweave, since in my auction house on Cairne at the time, this was the order from least to most expensive, so the answer likely will decrease the number of turn ins as the expense per stack gets higher.

I used the following prices for a 20x stack of cloth:
Linen Cloth: 1.5 g

Silk Cloth: 4.5 g

Runecloth: 6 g

Mageweave: 31 g

These prices are basically in line with the normalized price of a 20x stack output from Auctioneer on 2009/12/22 on the Cairne realm, alliance side.

I then used a simulated annealing routine to essentially throw in semi-random turn in vectors and compute their cost. If the total rep vector did not equal or exceed 42,000 in each of its entries, the cost function would return an arbitrarily high cost (meaning it is not a solution).

The results I obtained for the optimal turn in amounts were:

Linen Cloth: 168 stacks (84 turn ins)

Silk Cloth: 84 stacks (42 turn ins)

Runecloth: 40 stacks (20 turn ins)

Mageweave: 22 stacks (11 turn ins)

This is essentially the turn in routine you would use above, with one tiny change -- use only 20 turn ins of Runecloth instead of the 21 you need to get neutral right away. With the above turn in numbers, this comes out to 1,552 gold total. With the simpler strategy of maxing out neutral immediately, after the 21 turn-ins of Runecloth, you still need to do 11 turn-ins of Mageweave, which gives a total cost of 1,564 gold.

So technically there is a more optimal solution to gaining your reputation back, but it only saves you twelve gold and if the prices for the mats on your AH are hugely distorted from the values I used (specifically for the mageweave), then it won't apply. But if they're close, then you could save twelve gold. Woot.

Anyway, I thought I would post this so that others who are curious about this question can find out and not spend the time to actually compute it all out, resting peacefully knowing that they're getting the most goblin rep bang for their gold.

Good luck!

Kommentar von Avalionis

It's weird. One day the Bootybay Bruisers were at Lvl 77, then just the other day they were at Lvl 55, now they're back to Lvl 77.

It'd be quite difficult to do this before hitting Lvl 80, unless you've got really good gear and a good group that's either already hated by the Steamweedles, or don't mind doing so.

I won't be doing this on my Deathknight, due to the fact that I'm already hated by the Bloodsails, and getting to Friendly with them, would take forever. Thus I'll have to work on it, with my alts.

Kommentar von Gnoktish

yes my main got this hat and then i got hacked and they took every thing and when i got my account back i lost my suit along with a bunch of stuff i was wondering if there is any way i could get it back?

Kommentar von Oglop

I guess since no one has mentioned it yet here I go.

Since 4.1 recently had A LOT of companion pet changes.....Something got a little....tweaked with the blood parrot.

Theres a way to make it so you can have the parrot out even after taking off the hat.

1.) Go to your respective factions portal area to all the Cata zones.
2.) Summon your blood parrot.
3.) Position your camera so the portal is right next to your bag slots with a helm you wish to equip.
4.) Quickly equip the helm with right click, and simultaneously click any random portal.
5.) If done quickly enough you should have your PVE/PVP helm on and still have your blood parrot out!

Happy hunting with your blood parrot!

Kommentar von 126940

It's not that complicated, just:

1. Equip the Bloodsail Admiral Hat.
2. Equip your regular helm. (Parrot despawns once.)
3. Log out.
4. Log back in.

Since the new feature resummons your last pet, you should have a Blood Parrot with your normal helm now.

Also, if you have a Haunted Memento in your inventory, your last pet will not get summoned, so mail it to your alt/bank it before logging out. (Don't throw it at anyone, it's currently bugged!)

The same thing can be done with Don Carlos' Famous Hat and various (temporary) quest companions such as the orphaned mammoth calf.

Kommentar von Gadoink4

I didn't do anything special to get a permanent Blood Parrot. I just changed hats and the parrot stayed. It was as simple as that, really.

Can a 19 twink do the quest?

Kommentar von Gaoul

Without knowing complete details to the system it's hard to tell, but it would appear that a cloth wearing class would be able to use this item for Transmogrification as it does have stats. My warlock = happy. All my other admirals = sad.

But nothing is final yet, so take everything with a grain of salt.

Kommentar von diaskeaus

~~Please note that it is currently impossible to get this item if you haven't already.~~ Booty Bay Bruisers, at level 85, have 464,900 hit points. When I attacked them, my geared ilvl 359 DK went down in five hits. The first hit slapped me for a mere 36,243 hp, then 17,621 (must have had to swig some grog), and the three that followed were equally as ridiculous. 30,266, then 19,284 (he was getting lazy there), and finally 24,395 with an overkill of 19,422.

I'd sure to have what they are drinking. Maybe the Booty Bay Bruisers can team up and take down Deathwing in patch 4.3. They'd have a much easier time of it than us.

In that amount of time, I got off around 16,000 points of damage, a mere 3% of overall damage.

Update: upon learning there is a phased quest you can get by completing quests in Booty Bay which lowers the levels of all NPCs in Booty Bay to level 35-41 (depending on the NPC) I got my hat in a matter of hours. Once you are back in Booty Bay and the Bloodsail begin their attack, declare you are At War with Booty Bay and have fun. The difference here is when you get your hat, the NPC is actually in Booty Bay (the bay, not the city), not in the Bloodsail camp on the other side of the cape.

Unfortunately what no one bothers to mention in the other thread (as referenced by one of my lovely down-voters) is that until you get your rep back up with Booty Bay, Booty Bay remains phased, which means to get your rep back you need to either do a rep quest (for example, outside of Gadgetzen is a guy who will take 20 Runecloth and some Strong Flux), kill Venture Co. in Stranglethorn (although they have a relatively slow respawn) or kill pirates near Rachet or on the other side of the mountain where the Caverns of Time are placed. Until you get your rep back up with Booty Bay, the quest will be phased and incomplete, and anytime you enter the area with friends they will of course disappear. So make sure you get your rep back up to where you can turn in the Doppelrum quest.

However, the plausibility of solo'ing Bruisers is still utter nonsense.

Kommentar von 892876

This hat has stats, so it can be used in Transmogrification (I will be using this for most of my sets, personally)

Kommentar von MABGamer6407

a few questions. As a lower lv is it even posable to do now an days? if correct i think the brusers are now 85. an im guessing they can practically swarm you in large numbers as any hostile guard npc does.

So Is it best to only do it on my 85s then on a Twink?

Kommentar von Ravenei

None of the mentioned methods for retaining this companion while wearing your "correct" helm work any longer. In fact, the primary cause of their abolishment is due to the fact that, unlike other companion pets, this companion is NOT automatically re-summoned by your character as other companions are.

If you are to say equip the hat, summon the parrot, mount, fly a foot off the ground, land and then dismount, the pet would not be summoned by your character and you would have to use the hat again despite never de-equiping it. Entering an instance, dying, anything that would cause your normal companion to despawn even for an instant will leave this companion despawned permanently until you re-use the hat.

If the hat clashes with your transmogrification set or you just plain don't like it, your best bet is turning off helm animations for the time being.

Here's a quick macro for you if that's to your liking.
#showtooltip
/equip Bloodsail Admiral's Hat
/run if ShowingHelm() then ShowHelm(0) else ShowHelm() end

You can also use a similar macro if you'd like that macro button to allow you to both equip Don Carlos' Famous Hat or your own.
#showtooltip
/equip Bloodsail Admiral's Hat
/equip "Your Normal Hat Name Goes Here without the Quotation Marks"
/run if ShowingHelm() then ShowHelm(0) else ShowHelm() end

Kommentar von Hairband

For a wonderful idea of what Shoulder slot item to transmogrify, check out:

Admiral Hatchet

Now if we could just figure out what the item is.

PS edited to add: Most people are using the Corsair Overshirt from Deadmines for their chest.

Nice looking robe: Robes of Tirisfal
Alternate shoulders if the location and ID number of the Shoulder of Admiral Hatchet is, try Consortium Mantle
Groovy Dagger with tassel: Rusted Gutgore Ripper

Kommentar von Grishord

8/8/12 I don't see any 85 guards, the only 85 is the flightmaster, everyone else in the area is level 60 or lower in the phased part during the pirate attacks still.

Kommentar von 1072030

Here's a Quick and solo-able method with a 65+ Level Requirement.

Complete Quest's in Booty Bay until you reach http://www.wowhead.com/quest=26679.
At that point you will be phased in, where Booty Bay is overtaken by Pirate ships.

1.) Toggle "at war" with Booty Bay, and then you can begin killing Revilgaz and other npc's around in booty bay, the guards will only be at level 35, and can easily be slain.

2.) Avoid killing the guards for rep, since they will grant you none, focus on the bankers, revilgaz. And other npc's with "Booty Bay" under their name.

3.) Repeat the above until you reach "Friendly" with Bloodsail Buccaner's

4.) Once you reach "Friendly" simply fly out to one of the ships near the phased Booty Bay, and talk to Fleet Master Firallon, he will grant you the quest with the Bloodsail uniform. Once you've completed that, you will gain the Quest for the Blutsegeladmiralshut, this quest is easily completed since there are no lvl 90 guards protecting Revilgaz or Seahorn.

5.) After you've gotten your Hat and Title, you can repair your reputation with Booty Bay and the Steamwheedle Cartel using http://www.wowhead.com/quest=9259.

Happy farming! with this method you can get your very own Title n' Hat within 4-6 hours.

Kommentar von 1072030

An added note:

If you've done these Booty Bay Quests while leveling up, this method is not an option for you, it's a one time oportunity.

Kommentar von mimitakul33t

So i have just a quick question. Is it possible to get this hat AND Revilgaz's Cutlass Revilgaz' Entersäbel from the quest when Booty Bay is all phased from the pirate attack? I love that sword, and that hat, and would like both for a lovely pirate transmog i got goin for my human pirate :3 if anyone knows, please lemme know. Thanks!

Kommentar von hysilla

i love how mages can use swords, it makes it easy for me to use the transmog

Kommentar von Luvas

One can only hope that sometime in the distant future, this item will be re-classified to Cosmetic like the similar-looking Fleet Commander's Hat.

Kommentar von Vahdis

In Legion Alpha this has been changed from Cloth to Cosmetic meaning all classes can finally transmog it!

Kommentar von Ludmillaa

Ha Harr - Here's some terrific news: Bloodsail Admiral's Hat is now COSMETIC, so can be transmogged for all races! Shiver-me-timbers!

Kommentar von Sorross

can somone please confirm that the new transmog system (7.0) means this hat only needs to be obtained once to use across all chars.

EDIT: After a 3-5 Hour grind i have descovered that you only need to get the hat once to unlock across your account. And you get the 'Bloodsail Admiral' title account wide as a little bonus.

Kommentar von Karazaskull

Damn... I would love to have my Blutsegeladmiralshut with the same high-resolution model than Hut des Flottenkommandanten. A Jolly Roger in place of the Horde symbol with the white feathers would look great on an Outlaw Rogue.

Kommentar von AldoHawk

This item has now an use effect on top of the old one that in similar "cosmetic" pieces will delete the item to add the appearance to the collection... Does this happen with this one? Is it lost when clicked? Man... Imagine going all the way to get the hat and you click on it and it just... disappears... It has another on-use effect, is this working like all these other cosmetic pieces? Can anyone confirm?

Edit: I just got the hat, it can be equipped from the bags safely with a right click, it doesn't disappear to get added as a plain appearance, this "Use" effect only shows in WoWHead.

Kommentar von Shorazi

Unfortunately, you can't have both the parrot from this hat and a battle pet parrot out at the same time.
