Bloodsailor Ship
This ship is guarded by a small group of pirates. Kill them, and then loot their bodies. Their uniforms will help you gain entrance into the Seedy Tavern. Be sure to look in the chest on the deck of the ship itself--it contains the brooch for Daelan Redtiger's henchman quest.
Callik's House
Before entering the Tavern, explore the house located in the northwest of the district. Here you'll find a key that opens the Seedy Tavern's side door. You'll also find two smugglers' coins and the orders from Callik, the latter of which may come in handy later. The second floor is guarded by a Bloodsailor lieutenant (2nd-level wizard/5th-level monk).
Callik's Storeroom
A-To Docks B-Trapped Hallway C-Bloated Dire Spider |
This area isn't necessary, but there's good experience and loot to be had. Follow the trapped hallway around to the big storeroom in the back. Kill the bloated dire spider (which won't be easy--it's 10th level) and loot the chests. Among some other decent items, you'll find two smugglers' coins.
The Seedy Tavern
A-To Docks B-Jalek, Christov, and the Auctioneer C-Chef D-To Second Floor E-To Hideout |
There are two means of entry into the tavern: You can bribe the doorman or walk in for free by wearing a Bloodsailor uniform.
Once you're inside, talk to Jalek, who will challenge you to a drinking contest. Even if you lose, Christov will speak to you, give you some info about the pirates' power struggle, and give you a key to the downstairs hideout.
Talk to the auctioneer while you're here--he's got some good stuff for sale if you have smugglers' coins. Even if you don't want any of his items, you may as well spend the coins--they aren't good anywhere else, and you can sell his goods for gold elsewhere.
If you go upstairs, you'll find a strange dwarf in a sauna who will give you some cryptic clues about the hideout below (including the password for the door). If you just want to start exploring the hideout, talk to the chef. He'll let you through if you have the password or if you can successfully persuade him. Use Christov's key and enter the hideout.
Bloodsailor Hideout
A-To Seedy Tavern B-Bloodsailor Lieutenant C-To Lower Level |
The first level of the Bloodsailor's hideout is fairly straightforward. While there are plenty of enemies to kill and chests to loot, the real action is down below. Just follow the hallways around, kill the Bloodsailor lieutenant guarding the stairs (3rd-level rogue/3rd-level barbarian), and continue down.
