Pirates earn combat ranking by attacking and destroying other ships. The primary motivation for pirates is the cargo carried by their prey. Pirates use powerful weaponry and their fearsome reputations to encourage traders to hand over their goods. They can employ [[Limpet Controller/Hatch Breaker|hatch-breaker limpets]] which, when fired at an un-shielded target, will latch onto the [[Cargo Hatch|cargo hatch]] and extract [[Cargo Canister|cargo canisters]]. In addition, once shields are dropped a pirate can shoot the cargo hatch manually to damage it which has the same effect, but this requires more skill.
