Ojibwa_Wind Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 NPC's traders are to fast. No matter how you position your self they always get down wind and then their is no way to catch them. Even if you fire on them they get away. The only two times I caught them was when I was in larger ship and could fire long range. But then they carry nothing most times. I don't mind the harder battle with the bots them selves but the traders, wow they are fast and always down wind.
Tief N Tote Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 i have also noted that the last 4 traders i got had nothing this is true
Prater Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 These traders are perfect for learning how to chase someone. If you are in a fore-and-aft ship and you are trying to catch a square rigger, you need to be upwind of them and you need to initiate at the right range.
maturin Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 There is already a topic about this, and even a video guide. Could we lock this?
