Freight Delivery

AuthorFreight Delivery
Hauls: 25
Victories: 24
Freight delivered: 2185.00 t.
Profit: 9,417 g.

While I did all my ship 5 battles so far on max difficulty, I was lucky with this since I mostly faced undead pirates. The only time I faced normal pirates, I lost!

I think ship 6 will not be done as max.

Technically for win and freight delivered, you could push max and hope you fought enough undead pirates, since they seem to occur more often this time. The flipside would be whether profit is factored into the judgement of the reward.
for Lord MilesTeg: That is a good point with number of cannons. Maybe I will try that max-5 approach as well when I feel I am losing too much. So far I am at 24/26 win ratio, which is OK. Haven't been as lucky as you with undead pirates proportion, though :P
since they seem to occur more often this time.

not the case for me....im facing mostly normal pirates :/
Could someone explain to me what's the idea with the difference between price at the harbour and price on the island?


Because for me at ship lvl 3 looks that i got more gold from 8 x medicines (1184) vs 1 x road metal (319).
What's the idea? I didn't understand this aspect of this type of event.
what you are looking for is the commodity with the most profit per tonne (or more practically per 5 tonnes since that is the minimum).

Ie take the difference between the two prices and multiply by how many you can take. Whichever is highest is what you should take.
Looks like i wasn't paying attention to the fact that after a load of any good, gold is deducted from my account :)
Thanks.
First battle in boat number 6. MAx -5 one damage upgrade on 4 cannons only

Tight, but a win, low liklihood on a win with max load I think (at least for me against non necro pirate)

For me, time now to boost those cannons a bit rather than aiming for next boat as quickly as possible.
Some better cannons makes a lot of difference. Think I will invest one more run into cannons, then get saving for the next ship. Progressions seems much faster than in previous versions of this event.

A few more losses now, and invested a bit more into cannons. I figure if I am losing every so often in this boat, then going up to the next I may start losing a lot.

While early on a full shooter build works well, they are vulnerable to enemies with high numbers of nix and/or sea witches. All my losses came from this combo, you have to melee nix to do much damage and my set up has limited options for these.

I would expect a build change is needed for many in boat 6 to 7 sort of territory.

This is an example of what I mean - the buffed nix just overran me

Beatable, but not an easy thing to rely on

How have people done with more defensive builds? I am thinking this is what I need to move to.
Forgot to put int the little summary thing

24k profit :O
I have just 10k profit
There are good times to deliver and bad times. I was about to do some pirate battles just now, then looked at the cost of goods and they are rubbish. They should increase over night when people are not playing so much, and so tomorrow morning they should be at a peak, I will do my battles then.
The difficulty seems too random.
Necro pirate has some new units..can i see abilities somewhere ?
Currently at lvl 7 ship. Holy build has worked great, until I met this "mediocre sized" army :D:D

I decided to tweak my normal build with talents, taking vitalty at cost of rally, slightly less troops so less damage output, though 750 or so more Hp in total, so a bit more survivability.

Only done 1 so far at ship level 7, and this was at 205t, since win rate too low on ship 6 to expect similar at next one up if hauling to the same proportion. I think I may need to upgrade cannons a chunk before I increase the load looking at what Kratos had.

by the way I meant krovak, sorry
My first one with 255T at boat 7, I got lucky with a necro pirate, again :) Still they starting to get more beefy, meaning I actually had to think at least.
