Corsair is a playable class in Black Desert. She is armed with Serenaca, a flexible blade that can change its length at will, and Mareca, the jewel of the sea that grants the bearer the power of the tides. As a melee fighter, her free-form sword fighting is made up of fluid combos centred around unique rope movement skills that keep her afloat. No one is quite as spontaneous as the Corsair when she glides about using her rope maneuvers only to suddenly protract her blade and strike her opponents at their most vulnerable moment. Using the mysterious powers of Mareca, Corsair can transform into a mermaid with the ability to summon gigantic waves to crush her opponents as she dances with the Dream Whales from the Lost Sea of Dreams. Like any good seafaring pirate, she can quickly move about in the water and remain submerged longer than others.
Play Style[]
She favours a fluid, erratic, and mobile playstyle. She zips around the battlefield smoothly either with her waves or her rope mechanisms. She is a combo-heavy class, each combo flows smoothly into the next like the water she comes from. She is best for ambushes; get in quick, do ample damage, and get out. Her awakening style does not change this instead, it also adds a ranged attack and still gives her mobility; this further rewards the in-and-out playstyle as you can back off and then do another burst of damage with her cannon.

Awakening[]
Me beloved crew! Follow me lead, open fire!
- Awakening Weapon: Patraca
- Combat Style: Melee/Ranged
With Patraca—a weapon imbued with the dense mist of the Crow’s Nest—in her hands, the Awakened Corsair can easily rush down enemies while surrounded by its mist. Distant enemies aren’t safe either, as she can pierce them with her harpoon from afar, dragging them into her mist and neutralizing them. And of course, as the beloved captain of the Slippery Scallywags, she can give out orders for her crew to follow. Her loyal Scallywags are armed to the teeth with cannons, and ready to launch an artillery barrage the second Corsair gives the command. All this allowing Corsair to control the battlefield and surprise her enemies. Any foe unfortunate enough to run into Corsair stands no chance of escaping her mists, especially with her loyal crew at her side.
Succession[]
Riding her dreams to sing forth a huge tidal wave!
- Succession Weapon: Serenaca/Mareca
- Combat Style: Melee
Upon Succession, Corsair takes the last remaining Song of the Waves from the Lost Sea of Dreams and unlocks the dormant power of her mareca so she may begin her long voyage once more. Now harnessing the power of the waves, Corsair easily breaks her enemies' defenses with the dance of her Dream Whales, now more energized than before, and waves infused with the power of the mareca. With increased movement fluidity, she dives relentlessly into the center of enemy lines to drown them out with the might of the sea.
History[]
She is the captain of a famous pirate ship worked by a crew of otters. These otters are deeply loyal to her even after she loses her memory in her encounter with the black spirit. She had several wild escapades on the seas before deciding to seek adventure on land. These include but are not limited to, discovering treasure, defeating monsters, and fighting fellow pirates. "With the map stolen from her father's treasure trove, We ruled the high seas with the Cap'n! T'was not long before we came upon the treasure marked on the map, the Mareca, which bore the power of the tides!" -Mato of the slippery scallywags [1]
Her otter crew constantly talks about her accomplishments and she has done many amazing things based on their admiration for her. She is also shown to care deeply for her crewmates as they all praise her kindness. "The Day you left us Cap'n, I planned to stow away on your vessel. Lo and behold I discovered more than half the slippery scallywags already hidden there. We caused such a ruckus that ye caught us and kicked us all off the ship! Queek! We swam after your fleeing vessel ye know..." Teno of the slippery scallywags [1]
The Corsair is also the daughter of the God of the Sea; after awakening, he is happy to reconnect with her, both because he misses his daughter and because he senses a dark version of her is travelling the world and he knows she is the only one who can defeat it.
