Surviving the treacherous waters of the Bermuda Triangle in Roblox requires more than just a sturdy wooden raft; it demands preparation for the supernatural. The 100 days at sea ghost ship—also known as the Ghost Galleon—is one of the most punishing mid-to-late-game challenges that players will face. Guarded by the spectral boss Greenbeard and waves of undead crewmates, this floating fortress can tear an unprepared raft to splinters in minutes. Whether you are aiming to secure rare achievements or simply trying to survive past Day 50, this guide will walk you through the spawn triggers, boss tactics, and raft setups needed to conquer the spectral tides.
100 days at sea ghost ship Spawn & Raid Mechanics
The Ghost Ship does not randomly appear during your first few days at sea. Instead, it operates on a scaling progression system tied to your survival days and environmental factors. As you push past Day 10, the ocean's danger level rises, introducing foggy weather patterns that signal spectral activity.
There are two primary ways to encounter the Ghost Ship: passive ghost raids and active exploration. During a passive raid, a thick green fog will envelop your raft, accompanied by eerie music and a sudden drop in visibility. Shortly after, spectral boarding parties will spawn directly onto your raft. If you are actively exploring, navigating your raft into deep-sea foggy sectors increases the chance of a physical Ghost Galleon spawning nearby.
| Raid Phase | Day Trigger | Environmental Sign | Primary Threat |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1: Ghost Raid | Day 10+ | Green fog, low visibility | Spectral boarding skeletons |
| Phase 2: Ghost Galleon | Day 30+ | Distant bell tolls, green glow | Cannon fire, ship ramming |
| Phase 3: Greenbeard Boss | Day 50+ | Heavy spectral storm, glowing water | Greenbeard boss fight |
Do not fall into the water during a ghost raid. The water turns freezing cold, draining your stamina and health rapidly, while spectral sharks may target you.
How to Summon and Defeat Greenbeard
Once the Ghost Galleon spawns, you must transition from defense to offense. The ship itself acts as a floating dungeon. To initiate the true boss encounter with Greenbeard, you must board the vessel and locate the spectral bell situated on the main deck.
Stockpile Ammunition and Healing
Before boarding, craft or purchase ample ammunition for your firearms. Melee combat on the Ghost Galleon is highly discouraged due to the tight corridors and heavy knockback from enemies. Stock up on healing items like Chowder or Medkits.
Clear the Deck Skeletons
Upon boarding, do not rush to the bell immediately. Clear out the initial wave of boarding skeletons using ranged weapons to prevent getting cornered on the narrow wooden planks.
Ring the Spectral Bell
Interact with the glowing green bell on the deck. This action summons the boss Greenbeard, who emerges from the captain's quarters surrounded by a protective barrier.
Kite and Focus Fire
Greenbeard uses high-damage melee strikes and throws spectral anchors that deal area-of-effect damage. Keep your distance, kiting him around the ship's mast while firing with high-DPS ranged weapons.
| Attack Name | Visual Cue | Damage Type | Best Counter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anchor Toss | Arm raises, green trail | Area-of-Effect (AoE) | Sprint sideways immediately |
| Spectral Slash | Sword glows bright green | Melee (High Knockback) | Maintain distance, use kiting |
| Crew Summon | Greenbeard laughs | Mob Spawn | Clear minions first with Blunderbuss |
Defeating Greenbeard rewards players with a substantial amount of Doubloons, Pearls, and a high-tier chest drop that can contain advanced weapons like the Flintlock or Blunderbuss.
Best Classes & Companions for the Raid
Choosing the right class and companion setup before hunting the Ghost Ship can mean the difference between a successful raid and a sunk raft. Because the fight requires high mobility and ranged damage, certain setups vastly outperform others.
Sharpshooter Class
- Cost: 400 Pearls
- Starter Weapon: Flintlock
- Buff: +50% gun damage and faster reload speeds, making it the premier choice for melting Greenbeard's health bar from a safe distance.
Medic Class
- Cost: 60 Pearls
- Starter Weapon: Medkit
- Buff: Passive rapid health regeneration. Excellent for co-op runs, allowing one player to act as the dedicated healer while others deal damage.
Pirate Gunner Companion

If you are short on Pearls to unlock these premium classes, redeem the active code 20Pearls via the top-left Codes tab in-game to secure a quick boost.
Raft Base Building Prep for Ghost Raids
When a ghost raid triggers, your raft becomes the primary battleground. If your base is poorly structured, spectral skeletons will destroy your functional items, such as cooking pots and storage chests.
The core of your raft defense is the Bonfire. Upgrading your bonfire not only marks your survival progress but also emits light that weakens spectral enemies, reducing their defense and speed. Ensure your bonfire is centralized and protected by structural barriers.
Ghost-Proof Raft Checklist:
- Upgrade Bonfire to at least Level 5 to provide a wide protective light radius.
- Build outer defensive barriers to funnel boarding skeletons into a single choke point.
- Place storage chests and cooking pots away from the edges to prevent collateral damage.
- Create clear kiting lanes so you can run in circles without getting stuck on structures.
Always keep a Hammer equipped in your hotbar during a raid. Ghostly cannon fire can damage raft tiles, and quick repairs are vital to prevent your structures from sinking.
Ghost Ship Achievements & Badge Guide
For completionists, the Ghost Ship is tied to some of the most sought-after badges in the game. These badges serve as a testament to your survival skills and combat prowess.
The "They'll be back!" badge is awarded for surviving your very first ghost raid. Because this event triggers naturally as you progress past the early days, it has a high win rate among active players.
The "Third Bell Rung" badge, however, is a prestigious late-game challenge. To unlock it, you must summon and defeat the Ghost Galleon three separate times within a single survival run. This requires a highly optimized raft, abundant ammunition, and excellent resource management to survive the consecutive battles.
| Badge Name | Category | Unlock Requirement | Global Win Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| They'll be back! | Survival Raid | Survive a random ghost raid | 95.8% (Very Common) |
| Third Bell Rung | Boss Combat | Defeat the Ghost Galleon 3 times in one run | 1.0% (Rare) |
| Arms of Victory | Boss Combat | Defeat the giant Squid Boss | 0.3% (Very Rare) |
| All Alone | Challenge | Survive 100 days completely solo | 0.2% (Extreme) |
Attempt the 'Third Bell Rung' badge in a duo lobby ('Blunder Buddies'). Having one player run the Medic class while the other focuses on Sharpshooter DPS makes surviving three consecutive galleon fights significantly safer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I trigger the 100 days at sea ghost ship?
The Ghost Ship can trigger passively as a green fog raid past Day 10, or it can be actively found by sailing into deep-sea foggy biomes after Day 30.
Q: What is the best weapon to fight Greenbeard?
Ranged weapons like the Flintlock or Blunderbuss are best. Melee weapons are too risky due to Greenbeard's high knockback and high-damage close-range attacks.
Q: How do I get the 'Third Bell Rung' badge?
You must summon and defeat the Ghost Galleon boss three times in a single survival run by boarding the ship and ringing its spectral bell each time.
Q: Does the bonfire light affect ghost enemies?
Yes, upgrading your bonfire creates a light radius that weakens spectral skeletons, making them easier to defeat when they board your raft.
Never board the Ghost Galleon without a clear escape route back to your raft. If your raft drifts away while you are fighting Greenbeard, you will be stranded in hostile waters.
