[[Brawlers]] - [[Midweight]] ![[HectorBarbossa1.png|350]] ### Skills Hector Barbossa's unique skill is **"The Curse"**. Passive : You are 'Cursed', causing you to be invincible, but drive slower. Collecting a "Coin" 'temporarily uncurses' you, causing you to drive at normal speeds, but without invincibility. The curse returns after a few seconds. "The Coin" is automatically collected once spawned from an opponent. Normal : Spawn rows of obstacles in front of you, opponents generate a "Coin" when touching the obstacles. Charged : Create an area around you, opponents generate a "Coin" when entering the area. Hector Barbossa naturally raises the common skills [[Shot]] and [[Bomb]]. Prioritize raising [[Shield]] and [[Rush]] with Crew Skill Bonuses. ![[HectorBarbossa2.png|350]] ### Recommended Crew Below is my recommendation for crew in highest to lowest priority. Depending on your star level, you may decide to change up some crew to fit your current needs. Alternate Crew is provided for some of the Non-Epic crew, if they have a reasonable replacement based off Skill Bonuses, or Stats. ![[HectorBarbossa3.png|350]] - Epic Crew - Carina Barbossa - Starting Skill - [[Shot]] - Increases ALL Stats - Non-Epic Crew 1 - Cotton - Skill Bonus - [[Shield]] - Stats - Acceleration | Combat - Non-Epic Crew 2 - Captian Sao Feng - Skill Bonus - [[Rush]] - Stats - Top Speed | Handling | Boost - Alternative Crew - Gillette - Non-Epic Crew 3 - Theodore Groves - Skill Bonus - *~~[[Cloak]]~~* - Stats - Top Speed | Acceleration | Boost - Alternative Crew - Bo'Sun > [!note] > Crew Skill Bonuses that are *~~marked through~~* do not benefit the racer. ### Stats Level 50 Racer Stats with no crew equipped. ![[HectorBarbossa4.png|350]] Level 50 Racer Stats with recommended Crew equipped. ![[HectorBarbossa5.png|350]] x1.25 top speed = 142mph/229kmh x1.25 top speed boosting = 172mph/278kmh
