Got Krakened for the first time in ages

I would like a refund for my cannonballs please. They were far more valuable than the loot this thing gave out.

They should've changed the kraken up for this HC update, make it a creature to once again be feared and not just an inconvenience.

Like I get that it scales to ship/crew size and as a solo sloop I got an easy fight, but this thing is just a joke nowadays. Increase the difficulty, increase the loot/value of loot, or just remove the thing completely from the game.

I can't be the only one that would like to see the Kraken become feared once again right?
