Vernon Merrill Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 A Niagara with full 32-lb carro load-out will absolutely eat a Surprise up.... But I do welcome the additional variety and possibilities. Can't wait to go against the over-confident corvette captains in my Prince, too.... Let's do this.

But sometimes ppl also have some fault in it. How many times dont we see traders with out cannons. A fleet of traderships with out an escort. Yes I know it dosent count for the new guys. But even in a small ship, if you learn to sail with the wind, learn to do a defensive tag, you would stay a better chance against the Lrq, even with a leg with elite pirates. I know what you mean there too... I was doing a trade run with two india and an endy as escort and a le req thought it was a cool idea to attack me... when he actually saw that the india where fully armed and crewed he said actually said: "that is a hostile move" LOL And well my tactic was to set the india to demast... and once his sails got down the le req lost its mojo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the weak bowsprit and masts of the 6th rates are decisive in a duel. Hug him to windward.... Also a much harder target to hit... Most human players are pretty terrible shots.

I wanted to test the lrq inside the reinforcement zones and kill new players with it + do a video out of it but there are no new players to attack even around mortimer so I stopped doing it. I killed ~6 guys in a 3 hour timespan. If you are interested I can upload it. Fair enough tho almost noone called reinforcements. (Are they too stupid to see the message or what is the problem here in the first place?) And just got rageboarded by my LRQ. The LRQ does 15,5kn upwind and I think like 13 or so downwind, it has one of the OP (yes they are too strong, please nerf) Musket Mods and a elite pirate rig refit making it absurdly fast. I think it is teak/mahagony I wish that ugly ship was never added. It's a trolls ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van der Clam Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 13 hours ago, admin said: lrq and hercules will come back to shallow PB because the draught limitations will be reworked in one of the next patches. All ships of the similar draughts to Hercules and LRQ will be allowed in shallows and shallow PB. @adminIf you do, please report how many Hercs are in each PB and how many kills they have. I'm betting Hercs will be the most predominant ship. 13 hours ago, Angus MacDuff said: That's exciting, but I'm worried that it will mean the end of 6th rates for most players. Only the most skilled players will sail a 6th and face the 5ths. ^indeed, 6th rates are no longer useful by the majority, and certainly any new player will quit after losing to a Herc a couple times. 11 hours ago, Sir Texas Sir said: When this happens can we have like a week or two that it's not allowed in PB's and than allow all shallow ships in them. That way we can test the fairness of the ships in OW fighting first. The big issue i see is BR balance so that not one ship becomes more powerful. ^yes please 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call BS as most of the trolls we caught lately farming didn’t even put mods on the ships cause they are throw away and can redeem anouther the next day. That is if they didn’t do fleet truck to stock pile a head of time. They just use the 5 ship knowledge slots. Without mods the LRQ can still run from most ships easly.

The problem right now with the WASA is it's a PvP Mark/DOUBLOON only ship. Folks wouldn't use it cause it was cheaper to just make a Bellona instead. You should make it craftable again and I bet it will get popular again. Maybe make the BP only for DOUBLOONs or something or even VM's (we need something to do with them). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have about half a dozen first rates. About a dozen Bellonas. 5 chars with three of them with 27 dock space loaded up. I have a job and work so I can’t be on all the time to fight. Oh and I’m sitting on over 200 VM as my clan at one time owned 10 ports. Believe me I’m no where near where other players are. When we had Marsh Harbour port battle I gave out over a dozen H Rattlers with cannons and some where purple. I can make anouther dozen 1St rates of it wasn’t for the doubloons needed. Why would I go out solo in a 1st rate like a noob to just loose it? That the most regarded thing I ever heard. I take it you don’t PvP much? Most of it is done in 5th and 4th rates not SOL. right now what holds folks back from making SOL is not VM it’s doubloons and they aren’t cheap so folks aren’t using them.

I take it you don’t go fight in them either or craft them? Well, first if all, where do I say to take out a Sol. Just for the record when I write ships it covers all classes of ships, not just Sol. But I can understand from you the only ships covered is a 1 rate when ppl talk ships. Fine you want to be condescending and say I aparently do little PvP. In generally the danes haven’t put of screenshots of oure fights. Thats just not oure style to pound oure chest. Try go small duel battles. You actually will find some video from me. I put then up, so ppl could see even avarage players can have fun in PvP. Before patch 27 I did Daily PvP, either in patrolezone(where I mostly went when I was alone), small group hunting. And just for the record Since august last year part of The Dnp portbattle team, so my guess is I have about 40 - 50 pb under the belt. I made enough PvP marks to each week give around 150 marks to those that needed. But I do not know if thats qualify me as a PvP player in your eyes. Do plz tell me. Not everybody has as many VM as you. So sell them, get some Reals, then buy Dbl, craft ships, go fight. But you are right. There is way to many ships from before patch. Thats why we dont see the result yeth of ships cost VM. Lets not Call for changes before we actually know the impact. You are right. I dont craft 4-1 rate ships. Neither do I use those I had befor patch 27. I wanted to see how it would affect me in the long run and not when I have the benefit if what I allready have. Admin and players wanted ships to be rare, so the answer must be to send less VM in to the game, if ppl have to many. edit: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1DeJzf6Wae_Uqc56shyOwA?view_as=subscriber Edited December 12, 2018 by staun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that translate to build Sol ore as your remark build 1 rate and go lose it like a noob? You know sell them, get some real buy Dbl. Maybe sell straight to a guy who need it for some dbl. Btw as I am in your eyes a non PvP player, what quallify a player to be regarded as a PvP player.

I said you prob don’t PVP much and I worded it as a question not a statement of your actions. Simply cause I don’t know how much you do or don’t do. Again you stated I should use my VM to build ships, they are only used in. Building SOL’s. so that would mean I should build them and go fight in them. As for market of VM to real to doubloons I would have to look that up but back to the topic I stated we should be able to turn them in for doubloons. You can buy 1 VM for 1000 doubloons. So why shouldn’t we trade them back for the same? If I would them for reals and bought doubloons with my reward I would loose money and it means VM and RvR is pointless as the only reward other than owning the port has useless rewards. I take it your against it cause you don’t RvR or gain VM? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
