Lukas97Austria Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Trincomalee is super sexy. Also I guess in pirates of the carribeen the trinCo did get a spot on the screen. When Barbosa sailed for the British crown to find white cap bay. I am not sure but it reminds me alot of an trincomalee
Jan van Santen Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) "Turban man" is her second figurehead, It was carved in England 1845. https://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/news/people/figurehead-hartlepools-iconic-hms-trincomalee-be-restored-and-put-display-1556339 Can't find any pic of the original though.... Btw: she maybe sexy but her heels are a bit high..... The real "10" (after Indefatigable was rechristened 4th rate) is Endymion I guess devs know that, why else would Endy need a rare permit Edited May 28, 2020 by Jan van Santen 1

Does that means that all owners of NA-full edition will receive Hebe frigate in form of remade/remodeled/repainted Trincomalee as a gift DLC ship? P.S. And others can get it as DLC (as @z4ys said above) Edited May 28, 2020 by Malcolm3 1

Never understood the speed thing anyway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Endymion_(1797)#Citations Apart from this, Endymion was known as the fastest sailing-ship in the Royal Navy during the Age of Sail, logging 14.4 knots (26.7 km/h) sailing large, and nearly 11.0 knots (20.4 km/h) close-hauled.[2] Oak afaik. Some of her later sister ships were softwood built..("fir" actually pitch pine) Would be interesting to have their speed figures. Edited May 28, 2020 by Jan van Santen
Sella Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Τhat's a weird train of thought lol. I don't know about the buff. It's already a very popular wood and a good compromise between speed and tankiness. Maybe make some of the existing woods a bit more viable? Like mahogany and caguiarian? 4
Dekillos Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) Ну зачем? Зачем топовый фрегат делать DLC?! Чтобы у людей не было стимула крафтить другие корабли этого класса? Сами же у игроков убираете желание поддерживать онлайн и ставить себе цели для крафта. Edited May 28, 2020 by Dekillos
erelkivtuadrater Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 nice that we buff everything, but not nerfing whats overused

Also quite heavy blow for crafters as Trincomalee is the most crafted ship (beside Traders and DLC) 5
James Craige Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 I would have thought it would at least be the trinc before her stern was re-shaped but cool I do like the Trinc a lot

Its a normal Trincomalee, without crafter-gatherer gameplay. What @Malcolm3 said above. By making the Trinc a (free) DLC you're not really adding anything to the game, except making a very prolific ship even more prolific. But you are reducing a lot of content for all crafters and also from clan-play. The Trinc is one of the best ships to craft for crafting XP, since it is easily sold on the market, or can be given away to new clan-members that are ranking up or learning PvP. The Trincomalee is indeed a beautiful ship that you and Game-labs should rightfully be proud of. It is one of my favourite ships both to sail and to look at. But it doesn't get any more appreciated by making it a DLC, since it already is a very well appreciated ship. 5

It supports that we will see more 5th Rates on Openworld. Thanks you Admin. Good Patch
Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Thank you for this ship. Will have to learn how to play with her. Still remember one of the first times i saw her being superbly handled long long long ago, by @Leviathan, and thought.... now that's an ugly ship that actually moves cool
van Veen Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 I'm confused. 1 hour ago, admin said: Teak needs to be buffed we think. 45 minutes ago, admin said: No. it wont be an imported ship.

" From this, everyone seems to understand precisely what is coming. I don't. Perhaps it's because I am old and my brain is a little sluggish, or because my crystal ball is a little cloudy these days. Could you wise guys with more foresight please enlighten me?

Could you wise guys with more foresight please enlighten me? Hello van Veen Devs have a different concept of what is a DLC and an Imported ship. All DLCs are Imported ships (meaning you cannot trade them, gift them, capture them etc) While Trincomalee is a DLC that will not be an Imported ship, so that you can sell it on auction, or give to a clan member, or someone can capture it from you. That is my understanding. So Trinco is an "special" DLC Edited May 28, 2020 by DarkValver
Dre De Cruz Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 bog standard trinc Really! wow thanks so much, i will add it to my trinc collection
