    Worth testing. Yes.

    I'd like to see rank tied up with the access to admiralty resources. So knowledge, books, shipyard refits, etc all is dependent on Rank. If we are all Rear Admirals, so be it. We have access to all.

    ?? I stated what has been said by the devs. Rank and Crafting level is what is most surely assured. Assuming anything else is void - read - unless skill book changes. We had plenty of mechanics that ended in "grinding" becoming obsolete and thus removed and replace by something else. No idea why my personal choice became your argument. Have a good day.

    Rank and Craft lvl. I don't recall any other indication.

    On another note, my captain came to the West Indies to plunder spanish treasure fleets. I blame the stories the old buccaneers told in the tavern while I was a little brat. So I think that might explain why whenever there's a battle with Spain involved we always take the opponent side so wasn't that hard to chose sides.

    Sorry if I sounded like that, was not my intention. If there's anything we don't do is fair. I was even "whiped" by our commodore by having done a couple 1v1's the last days... *hides* ( stop with that dueling BS heth ! ) Actually the entire plan was to show the Jamaicans that they can fix the Xebec issue with privateers and princes. Then the battle chats evolved into massive bullshit and I was even accused of griefing because I was keeping the xebecs bracketed... like wtf... 🤣... my little brain went... "is this trolling or are this guys serious ...!?"... *shrugs* So OW RoE 3 minutes ( sigh...too long ) fixed spawns or Zone 10 minutes spawn all around... or 100% safe zones.

    What IF... ... all the OW was a patrol zone ?
  8. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    We follow a no mercy given, none asked. No redemption needed. But what we don't need is a bunch of whiners complaining that another "nation" that isn't the "safe zone nation" enters their little mark farming and interrupts them ( we saved the same captain in a Constitution twice *weeeeeee*! ) All evening was like that, was truly illuminating. All battles we invaded to "defend" the brits the zone gankers were really "wtf why do you help them". I will answer - PvP server. Attack anyone you want and don't expect everyone to accommodate to the easy pickings. No high morale ground man, just PvP. Take it as it comes.

    I did not see Sweden crying the two times they were reduced to Capital I see (insert you own nation) crying since forever. Do not place a mirror in front of your eyes and think it is the other players.
  10. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Go gank the gankers then.

    Z read my mind.
  13. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    National Ships in zone invisible to enemies in the OW.
  14. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    You are not upset. You are delighted by the attention 😎 Make no mistakes, i really like having a xebec rig in the game. But mine is nowhere near a safe zone. It is well within a trade routes area. Doing what she does best. Lending risk to the reward. Fair winds.
  15. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Memory is selective. Plus we usually only look to details that interest us. I think you are making a storm in a cup.
  16. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    The Zone gankers should NOT complain about being interrupted while they "farm".
  17. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Dependencies.
  18. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Nothing to add. Not uncommon in EA games for devs to code some system and then implement something to see the code working ( they reserve it for a bigger scenario idea ) in a contained scale.
  19. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Hush. You totally did not read and too hot headed. I am not against your gameplay. You do whatever you think it is fun for you. But do not for a moment think the others will approve of your methods and I sincerely hope more captains go out to gank the gankers.
  20. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Oh... that's a curious idea... 🤨
  21. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    The RoE. Also, don't care about your reasons You do whatever you feel right. As I said, it is the game we have. Please respect my opinion when I say it is gaming the game, and not hunting.

    Nowadays I have a bit more time, but during a long period did 2 hours day in day out doing the same corsair playstyle. So long hours is not really a thing, planning sessions is. Like, maybe 1 day take time to sail and open a haven, maybe just sail around and reconnoitre the area. Next session go out for blood. 2 hours of sailing covers a lot of ground and is worth 1 good battle, or more.
  23. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    ... yes it does matter. It matters to the point where a veteran like yourself should be able to take a newcomer by the hand and welcome him to the harsh OW. Take him with you on an adventure and make him taste blood. Disclaimer: It requires a lot of sailing in a sailing game.
  24. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    Not all PvPers are duelists nor all PvPers are Zone farmers.
  25. Hethwill, the Red Duke
    I am sure of that - a lot of things is not the same as a lot of good things.
