Chapter 2 introduces Honolulu and Madlantis, the game's primary hubs. Exploring these locations and recruiting crew members is vital for ship upgrades and story progression. During the main quest, you'll meet Julie, a mechanic who runs GearWorks in Honolulu. She upgrades the Goromaru and subsequently allows you to enhance its cannons.
Various materials, gathered by defeating enemies, are needed for cannon upgrades. These include:
Speak to Julie, select your desired cannon, and upgrade. Equipped cannons can then be positioned on the Goromaru via the crew formation menu. Here's a breakdown of available cannons:
The Shark Cannon offers elemental damage and a faster reload than some alternatives, but its damage output is lower. Consider prioritizing other cannons and acquiring this one later, perhaps primarily to recruit Julie.
This cannon inflicts slow, consistent damage, making it a strategic option, especially since you don't need identical cannons on both sides of the Goromaru. Its dual-shot capability compensates for its slower reload.
The Laser Cannon is arguably the best weapon, and saving components for its upgrades is highly recommended. Its devastating damage quickly eliminates weaker ships and significantly weakens bosses, despite the slower reload.
The pinnacle of cannon upgrades, the Super Laser Cannon requires rare components, making it a late-game acquisition. Its superior power and range make it invaluable for challenging battles in the Pirate Coliseum and against the Devil Pirates.
This guide covers cannon upgrades in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*.
