I was wondering what the meta skillbooks are for frigates rigged for boarding. Is there some combo like muskets + pistols & boarding cannons that is good enough to be used? Is the Nassau Boarders mod worth using with only 3 slots and so many other good perm mods to choose from?

How many boarding mods are too many? Can you ever have too many? With 5 skillbook slots and 3 perm slots what should i use?

I'll be honest the best fun I have with bording is using store brought fireships

Boom, no masts, no crew... And let the brothers mop up...

Sounds like fun but i tried this before and usually i get set on fire before i have any chance to board anyone...

Just use longs to tag, then turn off guns, go full boarding/survival. Wait to slow the target down.... 

Push into wind, board while on fire.....!!

 

Fireship is very useful in pve missions (hostility) AI all get stuck against the wind at same time.. Drop sails and go pop... Easy hostility when enermy players are hiding!!

It either works or not. But still enjoyable... Monkeys with matches is never a gd idea...
