Best Pirate Coliseum Crew Formations in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

Master the Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Pirate Coliseum: Optimal Crew Formations for Naval Combat Victory

The Pirate Coliseum in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth demands both skillful naval combat and strategic crew management. This guide outlines the best crew formations to conquer the Coliseum's challenges.

Three key crew positions significantly impact your success:

• First Mate: Provides offensive or defensive ship boosts during naval combat.
• Squad Leader: Leads a boarding party, offering various combat advantages. Upgrading your ship allows for multiple Squad Leaders (up to four, for a total of 20 crew members in the boarding phase).
• Support Squad: Provides crucial buffs without direct combat participation, impacting attack, defense, or healing.

Despite lower overall stats, Captain Beef's early availability and "Sink King Kiwami" trait make him a strong early-game First Mate choice.
