  1. 1. What to do with the Noob Grind?

    • Leave it as is, the noobs will figure it out and if not they won't stay anyways.
      2
    • Increase the drop rate of cannons in low level missions. That way they don't have to buy as many.
      2
    • Increase the drop rate of loot in missions, more loot to sell means more coin.
      12
    • Reduce the cost of cannons, they are just to pricey.

    • Other. I got a better idea that I'll post.

So lets start by going through the numbers. 

  • a Privateer cost you about 11K without cannons.
  • You need 12 cannons for a Privateer and 6pds are at 2496 a pop for a total of 29,952.
  • Your total cost to outfit a Privateer is 40,952.
  • Basic midshipman missions nets you 1K for the mission and about 3K for sinking the ship. Total of 4k coin a mission and around 100 exp. 

So it would take you about 11 midshipma's missions to get into a Privateer. 

Based on these numbers the grind may be a bit steep for some players while others may have no problem with it. 

What about the noobs, a new player who has no info on this game would have to spend hours in game before even thinking about attaining the next ship. In addition they should have leveled their rank up 1.5 to 2 time before they can buy a new ship. 

We all understand that the econ will take some time to get rolling and having players run around with hundreds of millions of coins is not a good idea. 

So what suggestions do you have to ensure Noobs are not turned off be the grind?
