Pros

  • Very dense: pulls of eight or more
  • Mageweave and coin from every pirate

Cons

  • Buildings and docks limit kiting room
  • Kidnappers wander through the cove
Requires:
Improved Blizzard and confidence with larger pulls; paladins with Consecration and Blessing of Sanctuary can tank the dock packs.
How to farm it, step by step
  1. 1.Where to stand: Pull the outskirts first; the docks and huts are tighter.
  2. 2.Pull: Gather pirates from the edge of the cove until six to eight follow you.
  3. 3.Group them up: Lead them onto the open sand south of the huts before you turn.
  4. 4.Abilities: Frost Nova as they bunch up, step out of melee range, then channel Blizzard over the pack; Improved Blizzard and Permafrost keep them crawling through it. Cone of Cold and a second Frost Nova (after its cooldown or Cold Snap) cover the last seconds. Paladins: let the pack come to you, then Consecration and keep Holy Shield up if you have it.
  5. 5.Kite: Kite along the open beach, not between buildings.
  6. 6.Finish: Arcane Explosion or Cone of Cold.
  7. 7.Recover: Drink conjured water and eat between pulls; save Evocation and a mana gem for a pull that runs long. Rebuff Frost or Ice Armor and Ice Barrier before the next pull.
  8. 8.Avoid: Southsea Kidnappers wander the cove; buildings block line of sight for Blizzard.
