Pirate is the fifth and final Explorer and overall character classification (class) introduced to MapleStory. Braves of the ocean waters and notorious for their die-hard attitudes, they fire high-density energy bullets to enemies and deliver hypersonic kicks and punches to foes in a fury of earthshaking hand-to-hand combative. The Pirates own the marine world led by their fearless representative and captain, Kyrin.
Within the Pirates, there are two job branches: Corsair and Buccaneer. Corsair uses guns that vary in speed every five levels and Buccaneer uses knuckles for hand-to-hand combat. Although the Corsair's gun gets relatively low hits, higher hits are more consistently achievable when attacking monsters close to the Pirate's level while using the skill Bullet Time.
