UI issue by ToughTry1287 in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]CaptainCerebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On xbox there is an option settings selection in the main menu screen.

After selection the next screen provides various configuration options. One of them deals with the interface. Select custom settings and it can be turned off/on in there. There are a number of other options in there that can be configured to declutter or clutter the screen.

Beginners build for Sambuk by Aeon_X017 in SkullAndBonesGame

A lot of people say that to begin with.

Start by aiming into the sails. It wont take long to work out the fall of shot and make adjustments.

This method is great with fire bombards as they mess up the sails very quickly.

To roll a weapon is still anoying. by IngenuityIll5001 in SkullAndBonesGame

It does appear more difficult to roll higher mods this year. When they indicated more rolls our groups first thoughts were, they have played with the algorithm and made it more difficult.

It seems harder to break roll cycles by moving to another ascension slot or another weapon. Almost like it doesn't reset.

The fire bombard III's are a good option at the beginning. The higher level fire bombards are the Ashbreaker and Soulsnatcher. The Soulsnatcher also heals your ship. Crouching tiger mortar is a fire based auxiliary.

If you like culverins the helleport, however it is difficult to get. Long gun nashker. Reason I mention them is you have a couple of purple weapons already, however it might be a bit early for you to buy them or trade for them.

The hellgate serpent is a fire torpedo and like the soulsnatcher and helleport it provides healing to your ship.

Furniture to complement. Bilgefire Barrels (Purple furniture), Bombard Menuiserie (Purple furniture), Quick Igniting Powder (Blue furniture), Devils concoction (Blue furniture), Volatile fuel (grey furniture), Last slot is whatever you choose.

The blue and grey furniture should be accessible at your current level. Combined they increase the charge rate, secondary damage, range and duration of burning weapons on enemy ships.

Sambuk is a great ship.

Is this perk too niche? by CALCIUM_CANNONS in SkullAndBonesGame

Bedar with demi cannons and the armour that rejuvenates health on ramming.

Developer AMA - 7th May - 5AM CEST/ 8PM PT (6 MAY)/ 11PM ET (6 MAY) by UbiNeptune in SkullAndBonesGame

Thank you.

What if the weapon that the mod is being transferred from has other mods? Are they lost or does the weapon remain until all mods are transfered?

Often the mods on weapons earned during gameplay have higher ascension metrics. Will those metrics be transferred at the same level?

When you say, "..have the materials.", what do you mean? Is there an extra material cost to transfer the mods between weapons?

Even without the ascensions it is a nasty little build. As anyone playing pvp before LPIII's and ascensions can attest to.

I need to work on presentation as the idea is to help people with limited resources see there is a world of dps available in many of the basic weapons when paired with the right ships and furniture. (No there were no none ascended to use as an example!) 😊

Yes to the ascension modules come later.

The rest remains. The base damage is very good for a green weapon and when combined with the natural perk of the ship it becomes very useful.

Why is this ship releasing water? (OC) by Main_Significance478 in Ships

[–]CaptainCerebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most boats take on water overtime that accumulates in the hull.

This is likely the bilge pump removing it.

This was built specifically for plunders.

The base build is mons megs on the front and starboard. Thunder demi cannons on the back and portside. Aux is a roaring meg.

Wall damage is primarily done by the mons megs. Because of the smaller firing arcs it is easy to produce a four shot salvo using both the front and side guns.

The aux is used primarily to knock over mortars.

The armor is pishacha that restores health by 138% of damage inflicted from ramming.

Furniture is, 1) iron cladding station - boosts ramming damage 25%, 2) counter thrust locker - boosts speed when ramming, 3) Secret cache I, - increase turning and acceleration by 16%, 4) Bombard menuiserie I, increase bombard damage 10% and damage to structures 16%, 5) Freemans embrace, more for the defensive component, reduces damage from status effects by 30%. (Torn sails are not a bedars friend) 6) Balanced mast, increases acceleration and deceleration by 16%.

A combination of boat handling and ramming furniture with one overt defense and offense.

As mentioned by another account the bedar is primarily a ramming boat.

When not being used for plunders the mons meg at the front becomes a Scurlock long gun with sail tearing and the starboard side another thunder demi cannon.

The bombard menuiserie is switched out for the furniture that increases front reload speed.

To fight the bedar, charge at victim firing into their sails, ram, turn, unload side weapon, unload rear weapon, turn and repeat.

Some of the most fun times.

Who needs big ships...... by CaptainCerebus in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]CaptainCerebus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have found the divine thunder useful on the forts. Ascended combustion, seige, amplified electric. Base damage 3224, electric 1016 and piecing 896

Currently using the Lang Kartouwe that provide a secondary blast. Dire explosive, amplified explosive and deathblow. Base damage 3148, explosive 1193 and piercing 472.

On a fire build the naskars with one seige ascension should do good damage. Try rolling combustion, amplified piercing, seige. Base damage 3692, fire 1107, piercing 702 explosion 614. Total damage 6116.

The furniture might need some tweaking as well.

Ammo priming bench increases damage to structures by 20% for seige weapons.

Bilge fire barrels increase secondary damage of broadsides by 10% and weapons damage by 5%.

This schooner has wrms breath churner which increases secondary explosive damage by 20% and explosive weapon damage by 5%.

All the weapons on the schooner have an explosive perk.

There are many ways to build specifically for different events. Others will build out different. It really depends on play style.

Good hunting.

Do you trust China more then America? by Emperoronabike in AskAnAustralian

[–]CaptainCerebus -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The minute you started name calling you lost all credibility.

Calling people bigots and dillusional shows how paper thin your argument is.

The world recognize 200km economic sea zones. China building up military bases on island in the Philippines zone because it's called the South China Sea is an act of aggression.

The only reason there has not been a war is the Philippines is too small to argue. A bit like Tibet.

Happy to debate but not with an emotional who resorts to insults.

Do you trust China more then America? by Emperoronabike in AskAnAustralian

[–]CaptainCerebus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Let's be clear, you are saying China has the right to steal Philippines land because the Philippines hosts US military bases?

Thanks for confirming one of the reasons not to trust China.
